I should've seen that coming.

I got this today. For the first time, I am reading my first introduction to the world of Manga in Right to Left the way it was intended.

I know there's a general Anime thread. But I've been on a bit of a GitS kick in particular the past few days. So first I think I'll do a little show & tell. I got this today. I'll talk more about this soon. Just wanted to lead off with my most recent aquisition. 1. Original GitS paperback...

I saw this a few times at Target. Until today I was thinking along the lines of "if it were any other character I might get it but I don't really care about Monkian." But today I figured "what the heck? I don't have any other Monkians. Might as well." The freaking head won't stay on, so I'll...

Just tried to watch it. Since I'm off today, I was going to watch both GitS 1&2. Fell asleep right after the garbage men part. 🤬

The first time I watched the Scarlett Johansson version of Ghost in the Shell, I didn't like it. They lifted some scenes from the anime wholesale and put them in very different contexts. It felt like they took the anime I loved and cannibalized it into a bastardization of an action movie. I...

Very small. You'd barely notice it in a display with other toys. It's not even big enough to be called a paper weight. But it's cute as hell and I love it.

I'm not sure I trust Google for these things. I've been lied to before.

Hope today's better for you.

I think I have enough to get me started. Thanks, everyone!

Wow! Did I kill the bar again by revealing a bit behind the curtain? Well, I'm having some ryncol...all aline...by myself...with no one around,

What made me happy today? I used to own the paperback as a kid. No idea whatever happened to it. But the hardback was on sale on Amazon, so I pulled the trigger on it and even sprang for same day shipping.

Thanks for the suggestions, everyone! I'll want to finish Nier first. But I'll definitely see about putting some of those on my watch list. Haywire: Is City Hunter the same franchise as the Jackie Chan movie? If so, that's possibly a bit too silly for me.

Well, Ghost in the Shell as well as Nier Automata, Apple Seed, Matrix, Cyberpunk 2077, Alita...all have the same energy of high-tech, man/machine interface. I tend to limit my love for Ghost in the Shell in particular to the first and second movies just because I find all the detail of how the...

Thanks. I'm kinda wary of Trigun Stampede. When you absolutely love the original, reboots/remakes can be done really well or really badly. I may give it a shot, but with trepidation.

The other day I started a subscription to Crunchy Roll. Believe me, the last thing I wanted was a subscription to yet another streaming service. But it seemed to be the only way to watch Nier Automata. So, yes, I subscribed for that one series. That said, I'd like to find more to watch than just...

I got this today from Amazon. It's small, but kinda weighty. I need to find a place where it won't get lost. So pretty! 😍

I started playing Nier Replicant while it was in the PS+ catalogue. They took it off the catalogue though and now it's $60 if I want to continue my play through. Bastards!

Well, I just earned the platinum on Nier Automata. ... <_< ... Okay, fine, I bought a good number of them from the vender in the Resistance Camp. But giving the amount of money you have to grind, I'm still counting it as a win. I'm on episode 5 of the series. But as far as the game goes, I...

I had a doctor's appointment today, so of course I had to use the snowblower to clear my driveway. Had to take a couple breaks to avoid passing out. I feel like throwing up. But I finished it. And just after I finished it and came back inside to rest before going to my appointment, I decided to...
