  1. Yea the 2nd play through is no joke. Nice thing about this version is you can go into settings and have it start on 2nd time off the bat.
  2. I cannot get through the first episode, Neither the MC nor Mona are likeable in any way. I got to the part where she comments about him liking cat pictures on his phone and Nope'd right on out of there.
  3. Its been awhile since I have any updates for this. I located an individual who can get me the art I want for this machine. After a few more electrical gremlin issues, I just replaced all the wiring harnesses, and in so doing found my power supply was getting pretty jank on the +5V leads. This might have been causing some of my isssues, I have replaced that as well. Now I am changing direction abit, while it will be an SDF Macross cab, I am going to add 2 additional shmup jamma games.. AeroFighters and Twin Cobra. With Twin Cobra needing some work as its got some issues. I saw this concept at Galloping Ghost and I liked it..
  4. I hope that everyone who got in on the kickstarter gets what they put in for. Still stinks of a ponzi scheme.. let's all hope I am wrong.
  5. I just got a shipment notification from KC about my 2 Artillery Battle Pods. I was kinda hoping it was something else like the GBP armor. ...
  6. well with 2024 coming to a close in short order, I played some catch up with Arifureta, and Danmachi. Ep 12 of both are delayed.. Arifureta is 1/20/25, not sure if Danmachi actually announced a date for Ep 12.. so indefinately? Nothing on the radar for Winter 2025 season at this point.
  7. I got tossed this coupon code while surfing around on the site. 5USD-VLP5OT which knocks $5 off. I bit, used a virtual card in case of shenanigans.
  8. This looks really neat, I will admit I am on the fence with 2 fairly large issues about it. 1. Just simply not having the patience or time to sit down and finish this. 2. People in my house who are unable to keep their hands to themselves (adults) either when I have it built, or while I have parts sorted while I am building it. .... yes this is an issue.
  9. well... its better then Delta.. 😆
  10. Series are starting to wrap, nothing has really changed for me. I will add.. Maou-sama, Retry! R - Very blah overall.. another edgelord anime. However... towards the end of 1of the episodes there is a battle between the Maou and some child looking demon, that is absolutely hilarious. Skip the rest, just watch abit previous for context. I went back a few seasons to give Utawarerumono a rewatch since I was so critical about it. I'm gonna back pedal a little bit considering what it had to cover with not much time to do so. However.. My original gripe of cutting too much out leaves some major gaps and questions unanswered to the astute viewers. There are some scenes in the end that are easy to miss, but relevant to those who played the games. My original advice still stands.. play the games.
  11. I gave it a go when it first came out, I got upto and watched the Mugen Train(?) arc and the dropped it. It was entertaining, but the shonen jump formula doesn't work on me anymore.
  12. Neither have I, I paid for the express shipping and nada. No more $$ from me until they release what they already took. I am happy it made it, but I smell Ponzi scheme..
  13. So comparing the JP remaster limited edition box to this.. Is the US version the upscale release? and the US version appears to have a bigger art book a few more art cards and a poster? Am I missing anything else? Upon looking at the JP release and the pictures on Crunchy roll, the US release only is 1 Disc, the JP release is 2. Probably not the up scaled version. Also the JP release has an artbook, that is only 40 pages long, the box has the same outer slipbox, minus some text at a few places. JP release has 5 art/post cards. US release has 8. Both releases share 4 cards as per CRs website with the US release getting 4 that are not in the JP release. The JP has 1 card that is not in the US release. And the JP version does not have the poster. I am just curious if its worth picking this up if I already have the JP remaster box.
  14. I haven't looked ahead to next season, if nothing pops up I might take a step away for a season.
  15. Dandadan - is probably the only title this season that has me looking forward to the weekly releases. Even more so now with ReZero on hiatus. The rest of this season is largely a snooze fest. Arifureta and Danmachi both have turned me off, I am behind on both but catching up is going to be a slog. Tensei Kizoku, Kantei Skill de Nariagaru 2nd Season - boring, there is no saving grace for this.. its a slog and I gave up. Nageki no Bourei wa Intai shitai - Another boring one, but not an isekai. The whole gimmick about the MC stretches belief beyond any reason. I am at least still watching this one, but this is just weak. Kimi wa Meido-sama - Not that bad overall, worth a watch as it has its moments. A rare beacon of hope this season. Sayonara Ryuusei, Konnichiwa Jinsei - is your vanilla Isekai nothing worth of note here.. outside of a Monster Girl waifu.
  16. So ReZero S3 is 8 episodes? wait wut? The 2nd half airs in Feb 2025? ... guess I can start watching, as I said previously I already know what is coming assuming it stays faithful to the LNs.
  17. So remember folks Kickstarter rewards are not Guaranteed. Are Kickstarter rewards guaranteed? It's important to keep in mind that backing is not buying, and rewards are not guaranteed. The first thing to note here is that the estimated delivery date is just that, an estimate. This date is determined by project creators as their best guess for when backers will receive their rewards. I do wish KC all the best, but as others have mentioned I have several PreOrders that are unfulfilled from KC, and no word on release and no response to my emails.
  18. you know.. this reeks of desperation. I'm gonna pass on all of it. Some good stuff here, but they still haven't produced what they already took money for... Caveat Emptor..
  19. Without going into spoilers, the whole Syr/Freya thing is just largely coming across as irrelevant. Especially coming off the events of S4 where IMO the series saved itself from a very terrible story arc (S3). Its still too early to tell, and unlike some others like ReZero I don't already know what is coming. I still personally don't think this series was ever able surpass S1, and has been going downhill since. S4 came the closest to the level of S1 IMO and now as of S5 Ep 5 we are sliding back down into S3 levels.. or so it seems. Again just my .02
  20. I've pumped the brakes on this season, I intentionally have delayed watching ReZero S3, I am going to let it get ahead abit before I move onto Ep 2. As for others this season, just not feeling anything currently. Danmachi is just ...... at this point, and Arifureta S3 (sp?) is just more of the edge lord stuff and was stale in S2. Dandadan is entertaining, probably keep up with that for that time being. I even gave Uzumaki a go, and that was just.. bad.
  21. Happy 31st Minmay!
  22. So wrapped Oshi no Ko S2.. I'll take back some of what I said, but double down on other parts. S2 was not as strong as S1, they spent waaaaaaaay too much time on the so called "theatre arc". All the while every characters moves and motive being narrated to you the whole time... it really does treat the viewers like they are dumb. The twist during the final few episodes and the "passing" of the proverbial driving factor passing from Aqua to Ruby just doesn't click. Neither does the whole motivation that Aqua has just turning off like a light switch. TBH its hard to review this without spoilers. I assume there will be a S3 considering the ending credits, but TBH I don't think I much care at this point.
  23. Nice comparison to the Hi Metal R regults. I need to dig mine out and compare. I am enjoying the KC version, might be one of their best releases outside of the SD stuff.. obviously..
  24. Just finished Magical Girl and the Evil Lieutenant. All episodes were only 12 min give or take. Not bad, pretty saccharin you'll need an insulin shot.. I think the only thing worth of note that I found weird was the age gap between the 2. In some scenes they really go out of their way to highlight the difference.
