TROS could easily have been slotted into episode 2. I enjoyed the ride and can go on over the finer points. But why bother, there's plenty of that and more to come
I will just say, as far as where did all the Sith come from, they are a secretive lot. It shouldn't come as any surprise there's been So many skulking around the galaxy for who knows bow long. And , mind you, there will be more..
Lol yeah where did all those hooded people come from @_@

It was quite a good visual to see them all gathered and chanting....although it just opens up another whole can of worms...
I suppose if some survived and actually had Force powers, they could be the basis of the next series of films....
Also, were all the Sith Star Destroyers destroyed? I would think that the "Rebels" would have wanted to try and save/help the crews since many would have been originally abducted as children....
You are right...MANY MORE BOOKS TO FOLLOW....TOO MANY PLOT HOLES TO LEAVE UNFILLED...
You mean they are gonna make more books? And make more money??? :P
I was almost tempted once to go into the 'dark side' of getting those SW graphic novels. Good thing I didn't like the art so I wasn't suckered in.

Ditto! That last picture is da bomb!
I dunno, I was not expecting a real human.

I just saw it, and I think it was OK, but could have been better (most especially with editing). I went in with low expectations and I am just relieved it is not a train wreck.
This is my ranking of the trilogy:
- The Last Jedi
- The Rise of Skywalker
- The Force Awakens
Above might be counterintuitive to some here but I find half of what Abrams puts in his movies (that I've seen) seem uninspired. Sometimes I wonder what would have been if it wasn't JJ Abrams who got to do The Force Awakens. If you've seen his Star Trek movies, you get a feel for how he does franchises. His Trek movies were not garbage-level, but sometimes below par (hi there ST: Into Darkness). Or it could be Kathleen Kennedy's fault for choosing JJ. I can't say I'd trust George Lucas either. I look at Kevin Feige and man, Marvel Studios is so lucky.
That said I'm still thankful for the new characters he introduced, most especially Rey and Kylo. I think they are good characters and a nice addition to the Star Wars franchise. They also found great actors in Adam Driver and Daisy Ridley. In spite of some of the writing and execution, I like this trilogy. You might think I am too positive thinking, but those prequels were really forgettable and I'd rather have the current trilogy over it.
What I liked:
- I like how they incorporated Carrie Fisher's unused footage. It felt almost seamless and it was the best that could be done.
- Loved the return of Lando Calrissian.
- Rey and Kylo scenes.
- Fanservice.
What I didn't like:
- Some new characters could have been done away with. I would have loved to see more sword fights/pew pew...
- I have no idea why so I really cannot explain it, but the editing bothers me.
- JJ Abrams playing safe (but understandable).
I'm not sure if I want to watch it again, because I am also eyeing Jumanji if it is still showing. I also wasn't really 100% focused into it as I took my nephew with me and I was checking up on him from time to time. We'll see...

Don't go right there yet, my friend. Don't spread some itchiness about when the release of Voltes V.
We need to save some first on the side and at the same time maintain a budget on existing orders. In case it's not going to happen, then atleast you have a handful of budget.
But yeah. It would be nice to know first if it's really official and not just some 'event display only'.
Lol I'm not trying to spread some itchiness haha. I have actually decided to pause on some purchases just to save some extra. But then again I find something else to spend on haha. I'm going to be in a real bind if it will coincide with an HMR release that I would want. But I've wanted a SOC Voltes V ever since I saw the old releases that's why I'm so interested in this possible new release.
-
Guys when do you think the new SOC Voltes V is coming out? My mind just can't rest if I don't have some kind of prediction of future expenses lol
-
So it's already coming early next year huh. I've always like Scientific Railgun over Magical Index. Hope the quality is good.

C3AFASG 2019, this year is quite different in the sense they try to engage the audience more - karaoke contest, hands on new games, an additional stage for the audience to play against cosplayers, a Naruto ninja exam/training course.
And then tragedy struck......in a cakey way... XD Even nano and LiSA joined in. Probably she was going to share it with them.....lots of funny comments....
Yeah I noticed that post too.
How was JUNNA's performance?

Going to hold off on Azur Lane and binge it later. Having a hard time keeping up with my personal series due to other projects and the holiday visits from the parents.
Still sad it seems that LoGH is not going to call the earth cultist terraist, but considering their actions later in the series it might be a little too on the nose.
Going to hold off watching this week's episode until next week and finish the season in one shot.
So what do they call them?

Any improvements at this year's AFA? It's been a long time since I went to Singapore. When I finally pay off my insurance I'm gonna have some extra money in 2 years, might be good enough for an SG trip.

Estimated quantity of 'Sales' for ROBOTECH REMIX #1: 8,109. With the caveat 'One other factor to consider is that sales through Diamond and other comic distributors are non-returnable to retailers. That means that there is a considerable unknown percentage of books unsold at the retailer level, probably amounting to 5-20% of sales.' (US only)
So there are probably still a few thousand who are buying this thing. It will be interesting to see what sales numbers will be for the later issues.

I’m guessing it’s in the same price ballpark as the previous DX SoC Combattler V which is Y55000, exclusive of Japan tax. For that price, I really believe it’s really worth it since I didn’t get the chance of owning any combining Voltes V figure ever.
Besides, it’s even cheaper than the MSRP of Arcadia’s SDF PF ver.
Hmmm looks like I gotta start saving now!

Hopefully the Scout Regult gets officially announced later this year (or early next year). Frankly I am not too disappointed at the sparse Macross HMR announcements/teases, as I have been pouring some of my money into stocks that otherwise would have gone into HMRs and kits etc. But I still want to see the Q Rau. Please Bandai, onegai..

Halved? You mean the split for the ab joint?
Yeah, I don't like how it looks.

I wasn't really impressed with the live-action movie so of course I wonder how this being made with Netflix will influence the final product. And then this trailer comes out that looks like a video game instead of anime (doesn't look cyberpunk to me). Right or wrong, my initial reaction would not be so positive. I'd like to be proven wrong, but the story has to be really good...
Speaking of Kenji Kawai, here's a mini-feature from tocotoco (now Archipel) Youtube channel. Advance apologies if this has been posted already.

I don't like how the shirt is halved. I like the yellow jacket version better, I was very happy I got it on sale.

Yesssss! I already have a Roy VF1S but it's OK, Roy is my fave pilot. Although I wish they would re-release the plain Regults, I'd love to have 2 more (or even more than 2 if my budget can handle it).
My only worry now is PO madness
