Welcome to another exciting installment of Spacemon, the tale of a Pokemon TRPG campaign! This is a spinoff of the sci-fi space epic played using the Pokemon Tabletop United (PTU) system, this time GMed by yours truly. You can get caught up the entire Spacemon saga here!
I’ve been in kind nebulous mood recently with the combination my college career literally being taken from me (will have to take a much lesser version of my current degree choice), the inability to buy the games I want, and just general mild hazy depression, so I figured I didn’t have much to say, but that seemed a…
Well I’m gonna comment now that it’s drinking time. I don’t want to leave anyone out so my sincerest apologies if I do.
I forgot that it was Valentine’s Day. A friend wished me “Happy Valentine’s”, I remembered just long enough to reciprocate, and then forgot again. And each time somebody mentions it, it’s a surprise all over again. So it’s a particularly delightful surprise to see this Sunday Café pop up, not least because it’s…
I wanna start with the people I missed last year, and if I miss someone this year, I’m dearly sorry:
Late last year, Steins;Gate 0 was released and was given mostly positive reviews (you can check out the review by AniTAY’s RockmanDash12 here) that led me to purchasing the visual novel on day one. The only issue for me, however, is that with exception to one blunder I made early into my exposure to otaku stuff with a…
Nice read— even brings back some memories of my own. I
think this is one of the reasons why I look back on the .hack// games
for the PS2 with fondness.
Yesterday, the much anticipated announcement trailer for Production I.G.’s follow up to the 2000-2001 hit series FLCL dropped at Anime Expo. The high profile anime gained a considerable amount of traction earlier this year due to the news that Adult Swim (the late night blocks on the cable television channel Cartoon…
Welcome to another exciting installment of Spacemon, the tale of a Pokemon TRPG campaign! This is an alternate universe story with one key difference that shifts the entire narrative in an interesting way. You should get caught up on our canonical adventures here first!
I have the biggest love/hate relationship with shounen anime and manga. There is always a respect for what it does for getting a lot of people into the medium that might not have otherwise, but I can’t shake the anime hipster part of me that pouts over people (particularly Americans) flooding the likes of Fairy Tail …
After the Cleveland Cavaliers lost in five games to the unhealthily stacked Golden State Warriors team featuring defensive monster/sharpshooting human tarantula Kevin Durant and the hero for every twelve year old and fan of less than two years in Stephen Curry, there seems to be no stopping their dynasty. Since then,…
In Overwatch, “Hanzo main” is a dirty word. The Japanese marksman has become a joke, an insult bandied about by hardcore players and school children alike. But people keep picking him, sometimes heedless of team composition and multiple all-caps insults. Why? I asked a whole mess of Hanzo mains to find out.
Throughout the years, we’ve seen anime grow and mature. From pirated VHSes to fansubs and now the the legal simulcasting of shows, being able to watch them right after they air in Japan, anime distribution has truly evolved throughout the ages. As years gone by, it became much easier watch the shows we hold dear and…
Damn Neryl throwing down the gauntlet, I actually like both equally for what they are. Though to be honest I can see where you are coming from.
At last! A collab has resisted the power-creep that has seen more and more shows making the list every season! We’re offering a decent, manageable number this time around, with a selection of Honourable Mentions and a couple under a new category we’re sadly thinking is going to feature more and more often as time goes…
With any medium not everything is a sure thing, even when something starts out amazing things can go wrong. I call this the second series curse when it comes to anime, where a series second outing just doesn’t live up to the first. Now these anime aren’t necessarily the worst; just compared to their predecessors…
Welcome to TAY’s nightly Open Forum for all of you Late Shift Warriors/Holy Knights/ Night Owls! I’m your host with the most, JB!
Sorry this is a tad late, I got wrapped into the second season of 7 Deadly Sins that just got added to Netflix. Meliodas is my spirit animal.
It’s another b-e-a-utiful Friday night, and…
