    The Anime/Manga I Bought Today Was...

    Jumped on the bandwagon and pre-ordered The Tunnel to Summer, the Exit of Goodbyes. I really enjoyed it at the cinema, so I went for the CE, which looks really nice. That cut-out O-card is a neat touch.

    What Games Are You Playing?

    Hey, me too! Super Mario World is still an absolute classic in my book. Have you ever considered Super Mario Bros. Wonder at all? I reckon it's right up there with Super Mario World in terms of quality and how much fun it is to play.

    What Games Are You Playing?

    Whoa, I just stumbled across this. Congrats! ✌️ Japanese Super Mario Bros. 2, aka The Lost Levels, is one of my favourite Mario games. How did you get on with it? I feel like it gets a lot of very unfair criticism in the modern era. While I'm here, I'll chip in with what I've been playing...

    The General Japanese Learning Thread

    Posting here as a direct result of the email I just looked at from Anime Limited advertising the new Gundam movie. Thanks, ayase. I was wondering how in the FQuuuuuuX I was supposed to pronounce the title. You saved me some Googling and a few extra minutes of puzzlement! Based on that...

    I'm 42, and I can honestly tell you by now that a new decade just seamlessly carries on from what came before. You'll be fine! 😁

    Hiya, dude. I don't believe we've crossed paths in the time you've been here on AUKN. For what it's worth coming from a random stranger on the internet, you sound like you have a very wise head on your shoulders, and a really practical outlook. I reckon those are real strengths for you. Your...

    So What's Your Avatar Pic?

    One vote for red. 👍 EDIT: I'm keeping politics out of it! I'm already getting enough with all the coverage of the upcoming general election over here! 😛

    So What's Your Avatar Pic?

    Excellent. 😌👍 And no, thank you for suggesting it, RadFem. I enjoyed piecing those together. Let's see which one gets picked, eh? 😁

    So What's Your Avatar Pic?

    Wow, really? 😯 I have that on Blu-ray, but I've yet to watch it. I did see the Japanese live-action movie version of it at the cinema a few years ago and enjoyed that. It didn't include a segment like that, though, I don't think. Anyhow, I loved your suggestion, RadFem, so I went and edited my...

    So What's Your Avatar Pic?

    So, I'm without an avatar pic at the moment. Anyone care to help me choose from two possibilities? Some here may be familiar with the Japanese folktale of the red and blue oni, but if not, here's a quick extract from Wikipedia: "Red Oni Who Cried" is a story of two oni, one red, the other...

    If you're already into RPGs, buddy, then I'd recommend The Thousand-Year Door even more. I was playing some more of it yesterday, and the storylines, combat system and exploration are all just soooo good. I've got the Super Mario RPG remake for Switch as well but haven't started it yet. I first...

    I followed your link and, yup, I have absolutely no idea what the things are that I'm looking at! 🤣 You called that absolutely right, dude. 😅👍 It's all Greek to me. You have my respect for knowing how to assemble all of that.

    Glad to hear you're doing well, buddy! Sounds pretty hectic, though. Well done for hanging in there! 😅 I haven't, no. No plans for one either. I'm honestly really happy with the Switch and am in no danger of running out of games to play anytime soon! 😆 I've just recently started the Switch...

    Hiya, buddy. It's been a while! Yeah, I'm good, thanks. How've you been yourself? What have I missed?

    Haaah! Not a chance, man! 🤣 Although, as I'm sure you probably know, there are crazy mofos who do actually play various blindfolded categories. That's... unthinkable. 😵 Really, you've hit the nail on the head there. I mean, I like my challenges and aiming for 100% completion, but I do also...

    You deliberately sidestepped it?! Duuude! You could've had yourself plat for that! 🤣 I read your post about the game in the thread you linked to before. Really pleased you had an enjoyable time with it. Based on what I've seen, the visuals look absolutely outstanding. Eh, I first played the...

    You've done what?!? What even is that? 😅 My anime viewing has basically stopped for the moment while I'm enjoying time on the Switch (leaving a stockpile of yet-to-watch Blu-rays). And then there's my games stockpile, too. (Help. 😅) I'm probably not helping myself progress through it by...

    Looks like I need to go and follow those links, dude. I've been kept busy with gaming myself lately as well! I'm currently (belatedly) finishing up with Kirby and the Forgotten Land on Nintendo Switch. Hi, guys! Hope you're both doing well likewise. I'm doing just grand, thanks. It's good to...

    Likewise, buddy! How're you doing? Is that a Stellar Blade character you've got as your profile pic? Have you been playing that? Haven't played it myself but saw a lot of the advertising in the run-up to release.

    Oh wow, cool. I've learned that I'm not really cut out for RPGs. 😅 I played the Nintendo 64 Paper Mario but kinda lost my way with it towards the end, and I started Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga but didn't get all that far before throwing in the towel. I know where I am with platform games, but...
