Heck yeah "Hello Alone" remix at the end. Also, I feel like Haruno looks different in each season.

Even Yui has given up on it at this point, huh? Nice callback to Hikigaya's famous speech though.

also if you want some non-Poirot Agatha Christie books, "And Then There Were None" is an absolute classic, of course, but I'd also recommend "Crooked House" and "Endless Night"

Okay, so I finished the final Agatha Christie Hercule Poirot novel yesterday. I didn't read all of them, although I read most of them. If you're into good whodunnit mysteries like Umineko (which draws heavily from "And Then There Were None") or Higurashi, I'll list the books into tiers:

Top Tier (Highly Recommend)
The Mysterious Affair at Styles (the very first one, so it's almost a necessity, but it's really good, too, keeps you on your toes until the end)
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd (My absolute favorite, the solution blew my mind)
Lord Edgware Dies (the closest we get to the killer getting away with it)
Murder on the Orient Express (it's been adapted into film several times for a reason, it's almost the quintessential whodunnit Agatha Christie book)
The ABC Murders (Another classic for a reason, so much misdirection)
Appointment with Death (one of the most despicable murder victims in all the books, which adds to the appeal)
Death on the Nile (Kept me guessing until the very end)
Curtain: Poirot's Last Case (The killer here reminded me so much of the Mastermind from Ace Attorney Investigations 2)

Very Good (Worth reading)

The Murder on the Links
The Big Four
Peril at End House
Three Act Tragedy
Dumb Witness
Hercule Poirot's Christmas
Evil Under the Sun
Five Little Pigs
The Hollow
Mrs. McGinty's Dead
Third Girl
Halloween Party
Black Coffee

Fine Tier (Honestly not very memorable but fine if you enjoy the genre)

The Mystery of the Blue Train
Death in the Clouds
Cards on the Table
One, Two, Buckle My Shoe
Taken at the Flood
After the Funeral
Hickory Dickory Dock
Cat Among the Pigeons
The Clocks
Elephants Can Remember

Don't know if I'd say any of them were outright "bad," but I'm generally a lenient grader!

How far did you get in the LNs?

I think I left off about halfway through book 6 last time I was reading them. I definitely need to get back to reading them. The dialogue is super good there just like it is on the show, but you get more of it since it's written in first-person from Hikigaya's viewpoint.

My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU Season 3 Episode 1 complete!

Man, this show always knocks its OPs and EDs out of the park. I don't think these new ones as good as seasons 1 or 2, but that's a high bar to clear!

I'm not a big Komachi fan, but that was a nice moment between her and Hikigaya. It was also nice to see Saki get some screentime here. It feels like she's so underutilized in the anime.

also Hikigaya can't bring himself to eat Yui's cookies, which is just a sign that we're on the inevitable road to a Hikigaya/Yukino pairing at the end, poor Yui

I can't friggin' get over the fact that both the prequels and sequels trilogies are some of the most massively underrated things ever.

The original Star Wars trilogy is basically the Gen 1 of Pokmon -- massively loved (and rightfully so), but the later installments just made the franchise even better.

yikes now this is a take

the prequels are somehow both considered bad and also manage to be overrated

it's quite an achievement

the lack of MP system makes me insanely reticent to use spells, lol. and money is scarce so i've been scared of blowing it on tents too.

the lack of MP means you can pretty much use spells with impunity, just refine more than 5 spells for yourself (although nothing beats just straight up attacking if you take care of your strength stat)

SeabassDebeste posted...
and money is scarce so i've been scared of blowing it on tents too.

there is very little to actually spend money on since the only real thing you need money for is to upgrade weapons

30 Tents will barely make a dent in what you should have on hand anyway but if you want more money then just take SeeD rank tests

you can't be a penny pincher and a hoarder when you play FFVIII but the game is designed in such a way that you honestly don't need to be

I wish they went for more platformer design with enemies than just spirit battles. But the world map is cool.

I mean they already went for that with Subspace Emissary! Doing something different is fine with this, and I enjoy the creativity of the Spirit Battles.

I mean I don't know why humor has to be present in the specific way you want it to be. I personally thought MGS V was lighthearted and hilarious.

I mean I was referring specifically to the tone of the dialogue and the story, not the ways you can entertain yourself with the gameplay. If you found that to be lighthearted and hilarious, too, good for you. I don't know how this turned into "why are you upset the game isn't accommodating you" but whatever.

When he tells you about Godot at the end of the first investigation day, Atmey says that Godot has no equal in the prosecutor's office. Phoenix objects by saying Edgeworth is the best, and then Atmey says that Edgeworth personally acknowledged him as the best prosecutor domestically when he went abroad.
