    Let This Grieving Soul Retire! (Second Season) Picks up shortly after the events of last season's finale, though most of the episode is given over to an extended flashback to how Tino's first encounter with the members of Strange Grief and a stolen brooch spiraled into Strange Grief gaining fame as heroes. The animation and writing are both on par with the previous season's. Not great, but "pretty good" would be fair. The main weakness of the writing is just the story's central premise requires the writing to jump through a LOT of hoops and use a lot of contrived coincidences to avoid making a strong argument for Krai either deserving his reputation as the genius strategist hero or being a Flashman-style dirty coward who's been mistaken for a great hero because of his proximity to the other members of Strange Grief. Hands Off: Sawaranaide Kotesashi-kun ... okay, yeah might have to write Crunchyroll about doing a better job with content advisories. This series is flagged under "sports", "comedy", and "romance". No indication on their simulcast page of what this series is really about. Even the series page in their app doesn't give any indication besides a tiny "18+" icon the size of a single grain of rice next to saying it's subtitled and the above-listed genres. The only indication that this is... something else... is buried in "More Details" extended description. It's ecchi bordering on softcore p*rn. Why is this even on Crunchyroll? That's HiDive's bag, not theirs. They've put it in the same content category as Berserk, which is an odd choice. Ordinary High School Student™️ Koyo Kotesashi has taken a job as a live-in caretaker at the rather rundown Maple Lies dormatory in order to pay his way through school in order to pursue his dream of studying sport/exercise medicine. On his arrival, he learns that the tenants under his care are all elite nationally-ranked athletes from his new high school (Seiwa University HS). When one injures herself falling down the stairs, he examines her and discovers some mobility issues stemming from untreated sports injuries. He tries to help her by applying the seitai therapy he learned from his family. (A pseudoscientific "alternative medicine" practice based on Chinese traditional medicine AKA "unscientific nonsense" that is somewhere between chiropractic "medicine" and actual physical therapy mobility exercises.) The end result is the physical therapy version of Shokugeki no Soma's foodgasms. Eminently skippable.

    Mechanical Marie started and I liked it.

    That usually goes the other way. I often see an uncolored prototype and it usually will look far more impressive once all the colors are added to it. This thing in the other hand just gets uglier and uglier

    These line of VFs actually look worse in color compared to when they were still in grey mold. I remember thinking this of the base 1J, and now this Tomahawk armored 1J. It's as if the color magnifies all the ugly detailing even more.

    I use acrylic nesting shelves I found on Amazon to elevate my homies in the back. Here's where I shifted around to fit Daitarn 3. Moved my mini Dairugger, Daltanias, and Combattler down with them, too so they could join the era family better. I think I can move Dai Apollon down if I slide Daitarn's accessories back and left. The minis are super convenient and cool - they offer all the transforming and combining gimmicks while taking up so little room.

    @Chas That looks great! 😊

    Another reissue of an 80's kit. This time a 2000 repop of Imai's Super Dimension Century Orguss M.Lover Maaie from '83. Getting close to finishing this up. Just gotta finish off some work detailing the pilot, do a little weathering and dull coat.

    DX VF-27 Revival

    Oh thanks for sharing this. I wasn't aware there was an issue when I got mine, but I suspected something was off about the shoulders because it was much harder to get them to sit flush in the undercarriage in fighter mode. I will go an swap mine around and see if that fixes the transformation issue. Edit: Just did the swap now. Pretty easy and non-damaging to the figure. It definitely helped get everything to sit properly in fighter mode.

    The official Takara Atic Gear ATM-09-ST (Melquiya Version) is posted on thier web site! The new line looks quite impressive for their size! especially the detailing on the backpack and the weapons! Not a line I will collect since I'm really happy with the Hi-Metal R line from Bandai! But it's good that there is competition out there, which means even Bandai can't, just release a cheaply done version! 👍🏻

    Latest Haul.

    I believe it was mid 80’s like 85 maybe

    1:144 L-Gaim, Ashura Temple test fit is not too bad considering it’s an old kit. I guess this A-class heavy Metal Set/boxset came out in 2021. Not sure when the original release was of the individual kit but it’s feels rather dated. Love the box art and can’t wait to get jamming.

    AFAIK, there isn't currently a digital edition in circulation.

    I wonder if they'll go all the way to VT-1 and VE-1.
  22. Big s
    Yeah, still not good. Looks like the legs are having a tough time holding its weight despite being extra thick
  23. Big s
    They did just announce the armored 1J, those will definitely be coming up sooner than later. I wasn’t expecting the armored one until at least next year, they’re moving along much faster than I expected
  24. KOG Water Dragon
    Still no Max/Miria in either fighter or battroid...

    Just finished the ep where Michael Rooker was doing some crazy fire dance. Didn’t have that on my punch card. EDIT: Just caught up, damn. . .
