Another week trying to stay positive about anything pop culture related, and it’s getting harder to do so by the minute! Thought I would lighten up the mood a bit sharing a video FG3000 put out last year in regard to gacha game player tendencies. If you’ve ever played even a single gacha game, it’s going to hit HARD. 1:13 in the video clip almost made me fall out of my damn chair, because it reflects a lot of the players I’ve dealt with.
Store source Suruga-ya
One of my regular content creators had somewhat of an interesting take on privacy I read this week that gave me pause. As someone who lives in the United States, it’s a topic that is heavily scrutinized and gets heated very quickly. I have a lot of thoughts about it myself in the audio blog. For everyone else who doesn’t really care, the above picture is a good example of cute robot / mecha waifus I always talk about being under-represented in everything. If you like what you see, you can head over to a store that’s very friendly to international customers, Suruga-ya.
Another week another fighting game tournament, but this time it’s one of the most prestigious ones of the year. EVO has always been considered the cream of the crop in terms of competition around the world for any fighting game out there. And although it’s not going to potentially win you a million dollars in Saudi Arabia (that event is coming in August), it’s still a tournament any real competitive player wants to win.
Artist is kaname aomame
Artist of the week is kaname aomame for his lovely rendition of Catherine Sabthra from Code Geass. I’m literally waiting for a figurine of her to come out, because I’m going to assume merchandising was not too far off her design choice. In any case, see you all next week and enjoy the tournament!
