I'm sure if I compared this to the original I would have a slightly different opinion (I usually prefer the original graphics, especially the lighting, when it comes to remakes and remasters), but I can't deny this game is quite gorgeous.
I have now remedied this grave mistake.
I just beat the hardest/most annoying boss so far, got a new ability, went to a new location and died.
Guess if I visited a save room at all during any of this.
Playing Metroid Prime (Remastered) again. This time planning on finishing it.
Love the environments, and the level design in general.
You *could* go with シェイン (she-i-n), which is probably closer to the actual pronunciation, but シェーン might be more typical for Shane 🤔
I've never read the original. Time to remedy that.
原作は未読なので、これから読みます。
Went to the Look Back exhibition.
ルックバックの展覧会行ってきました。
There was so much to look at that I couldn’t really take it all in, but the hard work and dedication that go into making an animated movie really shined through.
見るものが多すぎて、すべてを消化しきれなかったけど、アニメ映画を作るための努力と情熱がしっかり伝わってきました。

I'm sure there are both animated posters and animated coasters these days.
Would love this as a poster. Or a coaster 😄
🫨🫨🫨 slipped and drew stuff again..
It's always the games I have close to zero interest in that end up being the most popular 🤔
Lies of P: Overture (2025)
So many language-oriented YouTubers say that the "point" of language learning is to communicate/talk with people. I kind of hate this sentiment, because different people have different goals.
I think my life has become so much richer just by being able to *understand* English and Japanese.

A little different, but I always find it interesting when I instinctively press the wrong button to do an action in a new game.
It's like "wait, what game does (at least almost) the same thing with this button?" though I rarely figure out which game ingrained that particular association in my brain.

Being able to communicate *can* be the goal (and if I wasn't able to communicate in Japanese, I wouldn't have my current job), but being able to consume media in the original language is an equally valid (and fun) one.
There is a lot of value to learning a language, even if you never speak it.

I don't really do New Year's resolutions, but I do have something I definitely want to do this this year: to draw a ~10 page short story comic.
I already have most of the script, and rough drafts for pages 1 and 2 done, so off to a good start ✏️
Back in Tokyo 🗼
Currently realizing that 1,5 days is clearly not enough to recover from the jet lag (on top of not being able to sleep on a plane for 13+ hours).
Gotta plan my next trip (whenever that may be) with this in mind.
Finished SANDA season 1.
Interesting worldbuilding, and a unique take on Santa Claus for sure. Tonally a bit all over the place, but that's part of what makes it unique, I think.
Also, the show can get quite serious when it wants/needs to, which I did appreciate. Might jump on to the manga.
