I do find it somewhat frustrating when some suggest that we should reduce services to lesser-used train stations with the idea that buses to a higher-frequency station would be an adequate replacement. Buses rarely have the same degree of accessibility, and are rarely practical if you have luggage.

I will say on the whole title discourse thing, though - I think people should mostly just use what title they are comfortable with, but the Japanese title does at least tend to be less fungible.

Completely different to the whole current name useage discourse, but can we all agree that using the name "Hausu" for the Obayashi movie which is actually just called "House" is dumb?

Woke up early and somewhat loaded with cold, which is leading to delirious trains of thought like “is the swing towards conservative dress the most realistic thing about Irregular at Magic High?”

Got to hand it to Livid Lady - it’s genuinely impressive that the most edgelord anime this last season somehow wasn’t Tanya S2.

Think that’s the last of the vintage Zilla screenings leading up to the release of the new movie at this theatre, alas. I’d have been happy to have gone to more of them.

Caught a screening of Godzilla vs Biollante. Truly anarchic sequel to the relatively strait-laced Return that has almost too many ideas, but when it opens to a gunfight featuring a bunch of hammy US soldiers, you know you are in for a good time. Helps that it looks consistently fantastic.

Kind of blows that so many apparently great games are getting released right as I'm trying to curtail spending a little. Going to attempt to persist on working through the backlog instead, though...

Finished the main story chunk in the new Genshin patch. I liked it - lot of long-running stuff starting to come together, decent momentum to it, nothing that dragged on way too long.

It wasn’t just a bad translation - it was a translation so bad they accidentally made an encounter that would hardlock due to a text overflow issue. Also there’s a recurring line that was completely untranslated. It was a shame back in the day, as otherwise, game kinda slaps.

One of the things I discovered recently was that the Gs serialisation of the Strawberry Panic novels started a week before the first episode of the MariMite anime started, and that was a very “yeah, that tracks” realisation.

DiGiKerot @digikerot.bsky.social · 23/09/2026
I forgot to mention this when I watched the last episode of Exceeds, but my favourite thing in the episode is that even in the ideal fantasy world thingy bit, Shiina still seems to see Hayate as being old enough to Just Be A Regular Cop, as opposed to Fate and Nanoha. Extremely funny to me.

Read through Vol 8 of Silent Witch last night. Kind of surprised to see how many more books there are for it out in Japan because it really has a “this could be done in one more volume” vibe to it.

DiGiKerot @digikerot.bsky.social · 23/09/2026
Uma Musume aside (as that's such a ludicrous confluence on unrepeatable circumstances that it can't really be used as an example), I'd presume this is the usual issue of overproduction at work. My understanding is that most anime studios already have their next 2-3 years of work planned out...

I have to share my sayolara nerding with the world. I got to this part in episode 9, and got jumpscared by ncbi BLAST, a tool for comparing DNA, RNA and protein sequences to a massive database. So ofc I had to go onto the real blast and check out a couple of these sequences to see what they were
A screenshot from goodbye Lara showing someone holding a tablet with ncbi BLAST open and a series of nucleotide sequences on it

Anyone had an experience with 3rd party Switch 2 docks? Feeling like being able to hook it up to one of my desktop monitors without having to unhook it from the TV would be a useful thing to be able to do, just maybe not £100 with of useful.

Apparently I missed an Entire Deal with Leo in SayoLara. Guess I'm just bad at reading context clues (and don't read official Twitter accounts). Whoops.

DiGiKerot @digikerot.bsky.social · 20/09/2026
Finished watching Lara. Probably shouldn't have marathoned the entire second half of the series (last episode I'd watched was the cake store). Reasonably satisfied with it, though.

Just off the end of this list you have stuff like The Wallflower (Nabeshins last TV show as director outside of the 2014 Monster High shorts), Bartender (cult classic), SHAFT Negima (fun for how weird it can be), Red Garden, Hataraki Man, 009-1... Also Tokyo Tribe 2, I guess lol

Caught one of the Transformers 40th screenings. There’s a lot of fault to be picked at with that movie, but it has shortage of ideas and it’s never boring.

If you were extremely lucky a popular JRPG (for me this was of course Super Robot Wars) would have one of these written on Gamefaqs and it was how you followed along with the story and considered yourself incredibly lucky that someone had paraphrased the game

Caught a screening of Return of Godzilla (1984). Great miniatures and a terrific looking Zilla suit. Ton of fun photography and composite tricks. The science-fantasy vehicle is kinda weird against the tone of the rest of the movie, but it does look cool! Fun movie.
