Ace Combat 8 is my GOTY and is also best soundtrack of the year. I felt a lot of things in that game. You just cannot beat the way the best Japanese developers tell their stories.

I like how a famous coffee chain in Japan translates the Americano Coffee to "WEAK COFFEE" "Your coffee is so weak you should be ashamed of it"

I know I do the same joke every year but it won't stop me. Here is a beautiful picture of Japan right now. You have clear skies and you can clearly see Mount Fuji on the right and the Skytree on the left.

I had a game on my Megadrive when I was 10 years old. An adventure RPG called Wonderboy in Monster World. I never went past the 1/10th of the game due to not reading English, some not clear puzzles. 30 years later I finally cleared it #revenge

It's the Golden Week in Japan! No travel plan as usual because it's just so crowded. So I will just take care of my house, plan some new furnitures and cycle everyday. My bicycle just came back from a complete overhaul maintenance, it's all shiny and smooth.

It's been a while I wanted those. Eurobeat version of some popular Disney songs. Those CDs were released only in Japan, endorsed by Disney and they managed to have a lot of Eurobeat famous composers like Dave Rodgers (yes InitialD bangers like Night of Fire or Gas Gas Gas, it's him)

So I somehow had the opportunity to get an International version of the Switch 2. But I realized I don't really enjoy playing it on the go. I feel it's way too big now. Recently I went to a short travel and I preferred taking my Vita and my GBA...
Is it still a handheld?

I would lie if I said I planned this trip by myself. This year (and because it's a short one) I decided to follow the same trip as the girls in #YuruCamp (Vol 10 and 11 or S3 anime). And if you think it's too weeb as a reason, look at the Tourist Center of Senzu 千頭

A couple of weeks ago I said that I wanted to build a new desktop PC with a relative small form factor. Here it is. It's 15L so while SFF it is still at the limit I guess? But I really wanted that Tryx Panorama AIO with its curved screen I have so many ideas of stuff to put on it.
