Interesting take, yes, but I don’t buy it. I would say the main reason mecha anime didn’t take hold was availability. It needs to be broadcast on many networks, at a viable time. And not just mecha anime, but majority of adapted anime in the 1980's were only shown at odd times. Voltron got tons more exposure than…

Coffee is for closers.

Thank you!

Racing Hart C5's!  Pity Racing Hart has fallen off the map.  

Your situation in Seattle also describes LA in a nutshell. Everyone that works in the Los Angeles area are commuting from outside the city. Hell, even many of the celebrities that work in Hollywood have their homes in Calabasas. By default, they would have to drive through 405 or the side streets to make it to the…

Tends to happen to the young and inexperienced in relationships. Usually the first serious, serious relationship, the young talk themselves into putting up with crap because of “love.”

Very nice! Didn’t know they offered the S600 without leather seats.

At the time, the name “Dragon Quest” was already taken, with a copyright with TSR (the company that publishes Dungeons & Dragons).

Bravo! Both cars are gorgeous.  Very impressed with the amount of love and care you were able to give the 325.  Love it, really reminds me of my brother’s car; a lot of memories driving around, listening the G-Funk era, Tupac and Biggie, and Miami bass. Congrats, and looking forward to your next project.

Yes, definitely Japanese language. There are certain speech patterns that don’t translate well to English, like the way Reno ends each of his sentences.

Is it just me, or has President Shinra been put on a fitness regimen of 100 squats, 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, and a 10 KM run for the remake?

How cool would it be if they actually did get Mr. T to do the English dub?!

I’m probably in the minority here that actually enjoys Nico Rosberg’s youtube channel. He has some fun podcast interviews with Toto Wolff, Felipe Massa, Flavio Briatore, and Daniel Ricciardo. The shorts where he goes out driving with Mika Hakkinen in the P1 are really cool too.

Ha! I also remember when EGM made its list of “Top 100 games,” and they put Tetris on the #1 spot, with like, Super Mario 3 and Super Mario 1 at 2nd and 3rd place. I’d certainly put Super Metroid above those.

Greatest ever made? Maybe as an emotional choice. For me, it’s the greatest Metroid game ever made. I wouldn’t be able to pick between Link to the Past and Super Metroid, because it just depends on my mood. Truth be told, I spend more time on Super Ghoul’s ‘n Ghosts and Demon’s Crest than Super Metroid and Link to the…

I suppose everyone has different frameworks of what it means to be “mature.” Maybe I’m wrong here, but I get the sense the focal point of critique is Rin as the subject of humor. So we could focus our attention to the idea that it is “immature” humor. Or we could look at maturity in terms of our own personal ability…

Isn’t enough that we all know Catherine is a weeb waifu puzzle game? People create their work around the culture and subject they know and think about. If it’s a success, great. If it’s not, then maybe they create less work or go bankrupt.

Here between Arcadia to Irvine (just outside of LA), I could already see the crazy rich parachute Chinese kids driving the Taycan to community college; and gloat how the Teslas are are for “poorer,” middle-class, American born Chinese.

Fascinating to see all the different range reactions on various webpages. The Netflix youtube clip comments on his Jussie Smollett bit is a most triumphant cuddlefest of positivity from the humor of it all.

The volcano reminds me of the 1980's Dianetics ads.  A fresh look at today’s problems.
