So, earlier this year, during the first couple months of the quarantine, I binge-watched a ton of anime. Here are my short reviews on each one of them: Land of the Lustrous (Houseki no Kuni) Episodes: 12 My score: 7/10 Premise: Humanoid gems battle alien invaders from the moon. Review: Steven Universe but anime. Well, on a surface level at least. Overall it was nice. A bit of a slow start, though. CGI was good. Some interesting imagery going on.

The WiiWare remake of 2012 -the version I played first- was one of my favorite games of that year. La-Mulana 2 is... essentially the same game, with a new coat of paint. Let's start from the beginning. La-Mulana (and

Today I feel like talking about S&M. And by that I mean Pokemon Sun and Moon. But you knew that already. I mean, what else could S&M possibly stand for, right? So, yeah. The 7th generation of the Pokemon core series came out last month, to considerable success. I played it for the better part of the last few weeks myself. Having already completed the main story and most of the post-game content, I decided that it's time for me to share my (spoiler-free!) impressions. Basically, this is the best Pokemon game I've ever played. That's not to say it's perfect, but it came pretty close in my book, and I thoroughly enjoyed my time with i
