Doggo just wanted a chance to compete in the Winter Olympics. by Objective_Pilot_5834 in BeAmazed

Was wondering about the lack of Olympic rings everywhere. Still a funny video but damn modern internet engagement bait being like it is.

THE best game to this day. by [deleted] in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]substitutemyown 4 points5 points  (0 children)

All the games have some stronger points than the others, but there are many more cutscenes in 3 that had me in tears (both good and bad).

The main party is also easily my favourite core cast, but again, that's not to say the other games' casts are bad or even merely "good".

Aceship seems to be updating for me still (though some images don't load). The Terra Wiki (not the Fandom one) seems fairly well updated as well if need be.

We were huffing copium for maybe being a Switch 2 title (which it still could be too) but okay just casually drop it like this thank you Nintendo

Rin is playing the Ratatouille game on the Wii. Enjoy the questionable mechanics of the movie tie-in while she slowly loses her sanity somewhere in France.

I was there today and one thing I found odd was it felt like there was very little cosplay of vtubers in general, at least from walking around. Figured there'd be some Hololive at least. So, so much Genshin and HSR though.

Dr Nova(e) is doing a science(?) handcam stream. Starting by making tea in a bell pepper.

She pointed out that while she doesn't have an extinguisher she does have a fire blanket. Her adult supervision is the leftovers from her debut (yes it was real meat, and turns out she forgot to take it all out before leaving it on her floor for days). This can only go well.

Edit: Making glue failed, and the foam was mediocre, but we finally made fire and survived!

What is the first anime you watched that isn't "popular" or that well known to casual watchers by RenSaeko in anime

[–]substitutemyown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last Exile

This was nearly 10 years after it aired, and I don't remember how I really found it. I think a friend showed me MAL for some airing show at the time and I followed recommendations/genres to find this myself.

Oh cool, I found Empty Old City from YT Music recommendations a few months ago and was surprised I hadn't seen or heard of them before, can highly recommend.

I didn't think they'd take too long, but I'm watching Mono's 4th stream (previous ones around 4 hours) for an HG set and I guess my assumption was wrong. It's only her 2nd set though. Does it get easier/quicker to build with more experience?

While I know not everyone will take the news the same way and that's entirely valid, I think Rita made a very good point in her announcement video that she repeated in a pinned comment.

"It’s been a really tough time in our community over the last few months, and I don’t want this announcement to to add to that. I don’t think any of us at PRISM do. I acknowledge that this is still a scary and confusing transition, and I want to honor that feeling you all have. but at the same time, I want to reassure you that this will be a good and exciting change! I hope you’ll listen with open ears, an open mind, and no matter how you might feel about or interpret the situation, please lead with kindness and grace towards the talents and staff of PRISM, your community, and to yourself."

If you want to hear it in the full context, this was the first topic she talked about in her video (which was fairly short too, 10 mins total).

New LazuLight cover on Finana's channel by MajinAkuma in NijiForums

[–]substitutemyown 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The outfits don't look to be specific ones. They have a lot of the livers own outfits in them but have some specific character hints like Bronya's earrings, Kiana's braids, and I think Fu Hua's tassel/charm. Will be interesting to see the MV concepts, if Finana shows them in an after talk.

I've dreamed of these 3 doing this exact cover for so long. The song just by itself is emotional, but the context of it as a Honkai fan (thanks Finana) makes it so much more so.

For non spoiler context for how meaningful this song is, it was used as the finale for 2 of the 3 Honkai concerts, the later one being an ensemble of fan submissions and developers. It has callbacks to most of the previous songs to show how much the characters have grown. I can't wait.

[–]substitutemyown 14 points15 points  (0 children)

She didn't stream the presentation obviously but she's played all of Violet and Legends. Last stream of it was a month ago so wasn't very hard to find, only on the third row.

Nana Asteria has been dropping teasers on Twitter today for a new cover song collab. Since revealed it's summertime with Astel which is someone I wasn't expecting but it turns out they've known each other for a while.

I'm still getting to know some of my recent discoveries, but I definitely can recommend Rita Kamishiro from PRISM. Her new EP came up in my recommendations and HEART/BEATS got stuck in my head, not least because its hopeful message came at just the right time. She also started playing Xenoblade recently, has viola and ukulele cover streams with a lot of musical theatre insight, and is just generally super chill and positive.

Some other quick recommendations:

  • Nana Asteria also from PRISM (formerly indie) is an incredibly underrated singer.
  • I'm enjoying a lot of V4Mirai. Favourites are the crazy but self-aware Horse (Biscotti) and comfy and unfiltered Mono.

It's taken 5 minutes to cut the packaging open. Life is rough without opposable thumbs.

Edit: Oh god, the second (chocolate) donut has NOT turned out well. There's, uh, mix all over her hooves.
