Never got huge into danmachi's anime, but I played the mobile game for a time when there was some canon content written by the author going on. Probably the best written gacha game event I've seen (it was about the original Argonaut who was Bell's ancestor/pre-reincarnation). It's a pretty good setting.

And now that mobile game is preparing to close up shop, and a new, more Genshin -y game has been released.

I enjoy Danmachi , but the fandom pretty much sucks, especially on Reddit.

Sea of Stars is a great game.

Go play it.

I probably will play it after I finish up starfield.

Also I'm glad helck is 24 episodes because this show has become one of my favorites this season. After the first handful of episodes (which were still entertaining) it's a solid fantasy adventure. It and one room hero are the two standouts for new anime this season IMO. I guess my happy marriage is too but it's not really my type of show.

Looking like I missed an anime back in January. Found out that another Seiyu did a cover for Chiisana Koi no Uta earlier this year and now I have no choice but to watch The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten. Same Seiyu is also Akane from Oshi no Ko... and one of the protagonists of Kuro no Kiseki...

I'm kinda surprised you didn't already watch that. Was probably the most talked about romance of that season. I thought it was fine but not amazing.

End of an era.

Dungeon Meshi manga has just ended.

One of the more well-written manga I've read over the years. The worldbuilding is top-class, and the characters are all memorable.

Highly recommend if you're looking for a well-written classic D&D style high fantasy story.

Almost to the end of the Trinity Seven manga, at least as soon as Volumes 27 and 28 arrive from Amazon. (The anime, if you include the OAV and both movies, covers up to Volume 11.) Been a fun ride, but I am ready for it to be done.

Y'all we really need to buy this game and make it a success to show publishers how remakes are supposed to be done.

Why are they making yet another remake of Star Ocean 2?

Probably cause star ocean 5 and 6 were trash.

Tri-ace is such a weird company. They were responsible for the only good Final Fantasy game since XII (XIII-2) but also gave us LR.

Yeah, I really liked star ocean 3, 4 and infinite undiscovery but they have not been doing well with new titles since then. Sad too because I feel like tales has fallen off in quality as well around the same time. The future looked bright around the vesperia/graces f, star ocean 4, infinite undiscovery time but neither team has really managed to reach those heights again IMO.

Yea a lot of that was apparently because if the Phil Fish "Japanese can't make good games" video. I really tuned out to video games at the time and even now I'm just barely holding on. Even Trails burned its bridge for me after I saw Kuro/Daybreak's combat changes (which are probably still good, they're just not for me).

The only series I'd recommend now is Atelier and the only reason I haven't played more games is because I'm just not buying video games for the forseeable future.

Presumably because this would be the first we have gotten since the PSP.
