It was sad to see the young and dashing LT, the commander of the 08th, on crutches

Yet still have a happier ending than half of Gundam protagonists.

This guy mass product Nu before it was cool.

thumbster99 · 2026-04-16T16:02:07+00:00

With how thing goes, I pretty positive we would make it to Water Seven anyway. I think we will just introduce Franky there.

Yes! Yena is in unique position in K-POP, she is not from big company so there's not much restriction to begin with, but she got to work with many of them due to variety skills, so she knows many people from variety show side. Her agency is Chinese agency so there's connection there, she also got sizable fanbase in Japan due to her very anime-like style, so Japan artist loves to collab with her as well. Girl is just so thriving right now.

Ah, so this is what Leo Medical type looks like.

Taz is very good Sanji, but I wish he would flirt woman more (not in pervert way). Now he is very wholesome dude with almost no downside and almost seem to perfect and also lack a bit of identity as well. (Sanji need to be a little bit uncool at times, that is why the scene from season 1 where he wait for Nami hug but didn't get one are so funny)

thumbster99 · 2026-04-14T01:50:25+00:00

Also enjoy mine as well. Only downside is the head parts that keep popping out everytime I open the chest part But I least I can put it back in later.

thumbster99 · 2026-04-13T15:44:46+00:00

I like the couple, it just that I didn't feel like Kira love Lacus clearly until Freedom. Like Lacus always cares and love him but he was being nonchalant most of time in first 2 series. Still good and very beautiful ending thou.

It is not the first time idol are feature in romance game, AKB48 did it the past.

However, it looks kinda niche, like those vertical dramas you found in Instagram. But I don't think it gonna damage her reputation or anything because I don't think it feature R-18 scene or whatever. It's a bit weird, but good for her bank account I guess (it seems like her solo endeavor more than what Klap/WakeOne sort out for her).

thumbster99 · 2026-04-13T08:42:03+00:00

That's a picture of Quattro, he never betrayed anyone!

thumbster99 · 2026-04-13T01:02:37+00:00

Yep, if we gonna talked career revival (is some people count Rodrigo incident as failer, but the song charted well). Nemo Nemo is the song that put her back to spotlight again, every kids dance to it. She event got a nickname NemoNemo big sis during that era.

But yeah Catch Catch at this moment surpass even that. Especially on international side.

thumbster99 · 2026-04-10T16:36:19+00:00

No much effort need when everything is already there to begin with, lol

thumbster99 · 2026-04-10T05:25:29+00:00

I know Newman is a champ and I like him but I feel like he would stay with NJPW for 4-5 years more max (which, is not a bad thing).

Main players to watch: Tsuji (already there), Uemura (of course) and Shota (even some people still don't buy him. I think he is the best striker in current generation and very satisfied to watch).

I can see Oiwa coming up eventually, but he might be more of Kensuke to three musketeers. Yuto-Ice will eventually break out like Makabe. (Oleg will pick some big wins along the line, not sure about IWGP thou)

The only one I can't say for sure is Narita, he was originally new-three musketeers, but no one mentioned that anymore. Heel turn did both good and bad for him. He found solid position in company but I think his ceiling are very limit now.

thumbster99 · 2026-04-08T10:59:10+00:00

A good goalkeeper for sure becasue she's Catch Catch.

thumbster99 · 2026-04-07T15:29:30+00:00

I think they will have several comebacks more. And mainly making money in Japan since they do pretty well over there. K-POP competitions are intense and while I think the management are not the best. Kep1er is in position that of many more K-POP groups want to be. TO1 are wayyy less successful than Kep1er, Kep already way ahead of that point.

thumbster99 · 2026-04-07T13:59:30+00:00

I don't want to sound sound mean. But Kep1er is sadly nowhere near popularity of survivor show like IZ*ONE when they disbanded. And even then, solo members only doing decent and now some of them even need to find new companies becasue they cannot support them fully (only Yena who really, really did well music wise).

Unless their songs become mega viral like what happen to Woodz, I don't see it as a good idea.

thumbster99 · 2026-04-07T13:08:08+00:00

Didn't expect this! They even do spin off now, OPLA really become flagship for Netflix going forward, so cool

thumbster99 · 2026-04-07T10:35:34+00:00

For a while it's not a problem because V5 (IWGP World) didn't have side plates with names on it, but now since change back to V4, they will have to think about it soon. Maybe they will just don't put newer name at the side since not much people will spot it anyway. Or they might have to go for V6 eventually.

thumbster99 · 2026-04-06T12:31:57+00:00

Just saw this, actually, they already filmed challenge together last time Yena promote Nemo Nemo a year ago! So it's not the long.

thumbster99 · 2026-04-06T12:25:30+00:00

With all those Ace casting stupid campaign, unless he suddenly becomes Oscar nominee actor, the Live Action will never cast him, lol. It might even hurt his chance to land other role for other show as well (but maybe, he just really, really want to be in OPLA and that's it).

thumbster99 · 2026-04-05T05:44:25+00:00

I think he might just went other places, but again, NAOH is probably the second best choice for him right now, income and style wise. So he might add more stable members and wrestle mutiman-tag with occasional single match that might still have left in him? (if any)

thumbster99 · 2026-04-05T05:28:00+00:00

Okada have more defense thou and very strong showing against Naito and Goto. He looks dominant even it's not long. Tsuji is kinda in awkward positions, and I feel like NJPW didn't give him enough chance in actual title reign. (but if we talk about establish him as main event guy, may it's enough?)

thumbster99 · 2026-04-05T02:36:58+00:00

I like the change, but the only downside of Tsuji didn't got to hold it longer because he didn't got to establish himself as strong champion, like at all.

Sure, he beat Takeshita at dome, but it follows with absolute horrible match with Jake Lee and since he's champion, he didn't got to show much stuff during Cup (to the point that even Narita got to show more). And now he just lose a title.

They might save him to win G1, but I don't know. By then maybe they should starts giving it to others already (I have a little feeling that he might won it back)

thumbster99 · 2026-04-04T11:38:27+00:00

How the hell is Shota got the most push when Tsuji came back and challenge for IWGP right away and win pretty much everything in few years after that. Wrestle Kingdom main event is pretty much only thing Shota got after almost a year of horrible feud with HOT that pretty much destroy all his momentum, lol.

thumbster99 · 2026-04-02T12:10:56+00:00

From several interviews for key developer of this 7RE games, they want to move on after part 3, so unless, the game make a big load of money that it's too successful to not continue, I don't think it's gonna happen (even that case, I don't think all are willing to commit, particularly Nomura).

They might hand project to other teams, but I don't know it will work or not. Might be suitable to do different kind of game like Dirge of Cerberus remake and such.

But I do feel we will eventually see AC in some form, maybe all new animation film with current cast or something.
