My 70 year old mom who had never before watched anime has now seen almost all of Spy x Family and the first 3 episodes of Cowboy Bebop. Her review of bebop was that she likes the music and the visual style but doesn’t care for the violence.

Neat! Visual novel to anime adaptations are nothing new, but pretty surprised to see this with how Gnosia tells its story around the reoccurring game loop.

I grabbed the last two tickets to one of the Attack on Titan: The Musical shows in nyc on a whim a couple weeks ago (mostly because I kept seeing Gita post about it on bluesky or something). It was a blast! My partner had no idea what she was getting into, but is pretty dang invested now so we’re picking up with the anime where it left off (~se1 ep10). Kind of a weird place to stop, but I guess they had to wind it down at some point…hoping a part 2 makes it over some day. Anyway, they explicitly allowed/encouraged photos during the finale, so here’s a shot I took on b&w film:

Well, Steins:Gate has a similar idea, and Summer Time Rendering seems to be also like that. The game is in my wishlist in Nintendo, maybe i shoul buy it.

That’s true, the limited characterization during looping portions isn’t so valuable in and of itself. It just made for an interesting buffer between the major discoveries.

omfg they gave Kazuya Tsurumaki a gundam show. i had hoped now that he’s out of Eva jail he would get to do something original but this seems so cool
