michifugu: Orfe default (Uma Musume - Orfevre)

I just finished AAI2 and already bought the Apollo Trilogy. Damn, Ace Attorney really hooked me so bad.




Damn, Gura's really graduating from Hololive... and the fact that her reason was due to disagreements with management and the company's direction just makes the whole thing feel iffy. You can even hear it in her voice—she sounds like she's holding back tears :( What the hell is going on with Cover???? I wonder if this is the end of the Hololive era, at least in the English sphere. Shame that 4chan is down, I really wanted to see the shitstorm in /vt/.




Been replaying FE PoR and I seriously can't stress enough how much I freaking love the worldbuilding—especially how they handle the war themes. The characters just act like real people and there’s so much raw emotion packed in.




It's honestly really funny when people get hysterical or super reactionary about incest in media. Like yeah, incest is creepy, but it’s not this hardcore fetish like people assume. It’s honestly tame, it’s like entry-level taboo/transgressive genre/fetish content. If you can stomach violence and horror, surely you can stomach incest even if you're not into it.




Also, I just wrote some headcanon about Sakiko (Avemuji)—feel free to read it if anyone who likes Avemuji is interested!




I also just bought Lao Gan Ma chili oil (black bean & chili crisp flavor), and people weren’t lying—it is FREAKING GOOD. I legit got addicted and even ate it straight from the jar LOL. To me, the black bean version is best used as an ingredient or condiment for stir-fry dishes, while the chili crisp one works better as a topping or dipping sauce. Definitely going to buy again, but I think I’ll stick to the chili crisp version since it’s my absolute favorite lol.




I lowkey want to re-read Citrus. I used to dislike it because it felt so melodramatic, but now I kinda want to give it another shot. There must be a reason why it was so well-loved by JP yuri fans. My memory of it is a bit hazy, though.




I just heard what happened at the UK Supreme Court... stay strong to all the trans folks out there. Truly evil stuff...




Gigi Andalucia is the most Indonesian-sounding Gundam character ever. It’s so middle-high class Jakartan core.




The target demographic of TCOAAL being women who are into true crime (said by Nemlei herself) really explains why the vibes are like that. Also, Andrew is 1000% catering to a very specific female demographic with very specific fetishes.

michifugu: Homura in Kaiten PV (Madomagi - Akemi Homura 2)
Orz, sorry for not updating—I’ve been busy these past few weeks and had to help my family with a lot of stuff. Man, lately, my motivation for writing has just disappeared... I feel like I’m not motivated to do anything.


Also, I just finished playing Ace Attorney: Investigations! It was such a good game, however, I feel like the final case dragged on too long. I certainly didn't expect the twist that Shih-na was actually Calisto Yew, lol. Also, I totally ship Lang x Edgeworth. Tbh, I prefer their dynamic over Narumitsu.


I also replayed Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance because it’s been 10 years since I last played it. I was in the mood for a medieval JRPG with political intrigue. Reyson is used heron goods lol.


As for Avemuji, the last episode was a great closure, though I felt like episode 12 was already a solid ending. Still, I’m glad they got a sequel in production. I do wonder how the story will turn out, though, since the lead writer, Yuniko Ayana, left Bandori… I’m a little worried after reading the director’s comments. It feels like he’s just changing things on a whim. Hope he doesn’t ruin UiSaki.


Also, I’m disappointed with the Switch 2 Direct. No Monolith Soft games, and most of the new releases didn’t really interest me. I’ve always been indifferent to FromSoft games in general, but seeing the Switch 2 game prices is just ridiculous. What the hell is Nintendo thinking, pricing games at $80–90?! Nobody likes that, especially when the Switch 2 itself is already quite expensive by their standards. Also, I hate the whole Game Card situation—it combines the worst aspects of digital and physical gaming. Seriously, if this becomes normalized, I might just quit gaming or resort to pirating. Anyway, I feel like I should invest in a PC for emulation and Steam discounts…


I also hate seeing people asking for an Xenoblade 2 remake. XB2 has aged like fine wine and still looks great! Even when it reaches its 10-year anniversary, its graphics and visuals will still hold up. All it needs is a patch for a better tutorial, no need for a full-blown remake. I’d rather Monolith create a new game instead of remaking XB2. Besides, Xenoblade Chronicles X and XB1 actually need remakes since they’re stuck on inaccessible consoles, and their graphics still feel outdated (XCX especially since it was unfinished). Anyway, I hope we get XB4 in the Fall Direct or a new IP from Monolith Soft.

michifugu: anon happy go lucky (BanG Dream | MyGO - Chihaya Anon)
I marathoned MyGO & Ave Mujica last week, and safe to say, I enjoyed it! Especially Ave Mujica, it’s really so good, and it’s funny how they said, “aunt-niece incest yuri rights” LOL. Definitely didn’t expect that from a big franchise like Bandori of all things. That’s good though!
I really love UiSaki (or HatsuSaki) so much! There are a lot of things I want to comment on, but I think I’ll do a review of it later, probably... after I rewatch the series again because I think this anime deserves multiple rewatches. There’s a lot of hidden/subtle storytelling through visuals.



I’ve been playing Ace Attorney because I only played the first one back in high school, and it’s just funny, I used to hate Franziska because I thought she was annoying, but now I love her, LOL. It’s fun seeing her seethe and lost, it’s so satisfying after her smug attitude. On the other hand, replaying AA2 reminded me how sad the whole Berry Big Circus case is. It’s definitely the saddest case in the AA trilogy, in my opinion. It’s just mistake after mistake. I feel bad for Acro because, while his actions aren’t justified, I can understand why he feels that way, knowing a girl responsible for his brother’s accident just shrugged it off and acted like it wasn’t a big deal. Regina is... well, she’s definitely at fault, but she’s not doing it out of malice, just obliviousness. Still, it’s sad with Acro, and especially the backstory behind the circus and how Russell died is so heartbreaking... he was such a nice man.


I saw the new Panty & Stocking characters, the newly introduced Angel brothers, and my god... everything about their design, voice, and demeanor sounds gay as fuck LMAOOOO. Cannot wait to see their henshin animation, and they’ll definitely get the incest fanart HAHAHA.



I just pre-ordered Uma Musume merch! It’s an Orfevre mochidoru plushie and a Dorija tapestry! I absolutely cannot wait for it to arrive! It sucks that I couldn’t order the Bandai Namco campaign Orfe and Dorija plushies because apparently, they were crane prizes, wtf... time to wait for Mercari.



The rumor about Persona 4 is weird to me, seeing people celebrating it like... just why? P4 just got re-releases, and the gap between P5 and P6 is so long (almost 10 years). Like, how are Atlus fans okay with it? At this rate, we’ll get a P5 remake before P6 LOL.



Man, Xenoblade X DE just got released, and it sucks that I can’t play it because I just sold my Switch last month. Oh well, I’ll definitely play it on my Switch 2 (hope the prices aren’t expensive...).
