I thought the first ep of delta was cool then heard the rest carried forward basically none of that energy and never saw it

the first half of delta is fine. bit slow but fine. the back half feels like they didnt have a second half of the script ready

there's a lot of isolated fun stuff in the delta series that doesn't make it over to the movies but pretty much any time it gets plot heavy it goes to poo poo because the plot is nonsense and there's no credible antagonist. which is, sadly most of what's going on in the last half. movie 1 salvages whatever they can into actually giving them a motive and then movie 2 introduces new bad guys that also don't make much sense but are at least fun.

any episode where they're in the village their base is in though is good though because the delta cast is great and those are just low stakes hangout episodes. uh there's the episode where the delta is running out of oxygen and walkure is doing idol PR work to calm everyone down and fix poo poo, I like that one. there's the one with the gay hacker girl that airdrops malware walkure NFTs into everyone crypto wallets, and has the insanely good Silent Hacker montage

i really hate the og macross series. frontier is pretty decent though alto is kinda dull. 7 is funny but like 4x the length it needs to be. delta has a good first half and a bad second half.

og macross is really weird to me cause it constantly brushes with good ideas but a lot of its actual core character writing kind of sucks which directly impacts min mei in a lot of really bad ways

I like the headcannon that the in-universe movie DYRL would take the historical figures of Lynn Minmay and Lynn Kaifun make them significantly more sympathetic in that film vs. what they were like in real life. Like, obviously they'd do that with a person like Minmay who has such a historical importance to that society after the war.

It's simply more efficient to do all your laundry for the year at once.

yeah I guess, not really sure what they were trying to imply there other than, freya living on in some capacity because they didn't really want to kill their idol protagonist

I bought some olipop soda online after trying some from an local restaurant and thinking it wasn't bad. I know these "healthy version of thing that's bad for you" products are usually also pretty bad for you, but if nothing else it has way less sugar than the regular soda i guzzle all the time

Amazon told me it it would be mine in 2 days at the time but it has been many more days and now amazon says I have to wait until december

The Gridman Universe movie that connects the two also has its moments though currently it’s only available via fansubs for some reason

The original live action Gridman that SSSS is technically a sequel to is also available if you feel like checking it out and are into Ultraman style tokusatsu shows (it was originally brought to the west back in the 90s as a Power Rangers style adaption called Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad)

Also this may or may not be a logical question to ask here, but: if I've never played a Yakuza game before, would playing Ishin as my first be weird / not recommended?

Thank you for your responses.
