    @Invisible Crane I like the keychain (no idea of who the character is) Was the convention a good time?

    What did you RECEIVE today? PHOTOS EDITION!

    Got the first two Kazuma Kaneko artbooks, these cover his earliest work with the Shin Megami Tensei franchise back in the 90s. He was the chief character designer of the series for many years but he was not the first person to have the position. So you see a few creatures he redesigned and then...

    The Gaming News Thread (for news that doesn't need a thread)

    It's complicated. Because we know Vinyl has made a huge comeback in the age of streaming. And some movies are making billions in cinemas, even though it's been predicted for years that streaming and Covid would kill theatres and physical media. There is a demand for it. And all of these...

    Managed to get a decently priced though worn and marked second hand copy of Coffin: The Art of Vampire Hunter D. A collection of Yoshitaka Amano. Collecting a lot of his illustrations and covers for the first dozen or so VHD novels. It’s in decent enough shape and I’m glad to have it despite...

    The Gaming News Thread (for news that doesn't need a thread)

    I’m not too worried about Blu Ray movies for the time being. Sony aren’t the only company that produces them and film studios might hate it but they do need multiple revenue streams. Even if it’s just licensing the distribution rights to a company like Arrow keeping the format alive benefits...

    AmiAmi sent me my Velvet Crowe figure. This was released a long time ago alongside the game Tales of Berseria and become quite expensive on the secondary market. Luckily they re-released the figure and I could pre-order one. It’s too hot to reorganise figures and shelves right now so I’ll find a...

    Anime at the cinema

    The final season of Bleach, the 4th part of Thousand-Year Blood War titled The Calamity, is getting some UK screenings. https://bleachtickets.co.uk/ This will be very successful and enjoyed by many. This is a very strange point because this is where the manga started to be severely rushed due...

    Detective Conan Fallen Angel of the Highway - had a lot of fun with this one as somebody who hasn’t touched the series in a decade. They just decided these movies should have nothing to do with the main cast and focus on side characters. Which means this is still very approachable. Maybe it goes...

    The Gundam Thread

    As Tominio told Fukuda back in the 2000s: “don’t trust Bandai!” He meant that form a production but on the consumer level it's still very applicable. Their own worse enemy when it comes to handling their own successful and highly demanded products. It looks okay. There's a lot of arguments...

    General Politics Thread

    Regardless of everything else, AI Psychosis is a noted phenomenon that is resulting in people developing severe mental illnesses due to chatbots becoming both massively marketed and incredibly sycophantic but nobody seems concerned with that. You would assume it would be an issue. Google's...
