It’s 43F (6.1C). Finally cold enough to wear my scorbunny kigurumi cozy style. Let’s go. Anyways, stuff time. ## Interesting Stuff ### Pokemon XD: Director’s Cut Cool new romhack of Pokemon XD that adds a bunch of QOL. [Worth checking out!](https://youtube.com/watch?v=LfVw7j1Xs9I) ### We need to talk about Gamer Girl Fascism This isn’t really news to anyone who’s reading this newsletter, but still a [very well done essay](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGK1Oll7jZ4). ### What is hip? - TOKYO GROOVE JYOSHI [Good-ass vibes from a good-ass band](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tA8PKx09ao8). Women playing instruments will always be hot to me. ## Planted Recently [[Chainsaw Man the Movie - Reze]] Cinema.txt [[Aeruta]] The closest thing to a Recettear successor we’ve ever gotten! Game came out of nowhere for me, definitely check it out. [[BlazBlue Entropy Effect]] Locked back into this, read on for some notes on the best **Blazblue** game (I will not be responding to dissent here). ## Media Corner ### Games Playing: - [[Aeruta]] - [[BlazBlue Entropy Effect]] - [[Duet Night Abyss]] - [[Beastieball]] ### TV/Film - [[Chainsaw Man the Movie - Reze]] - [[Nobody 2]] ### Music A mountain of music this week. This isn’t even everything, just the stuff I’m sharing, lmao. - **Zelda & Jazz III** - The Deku Trio - **Windblown OST** - Danger - **Music for 3** - Masakatsu Takagi - **Earthbops, Vol 1** - Ronin Op F - **Genexx Aura** - lapix - **THE BPM** - Sudan Archives - **STRINGS** - SUPXR ## Status Update My Q3 review went well so I got myself **Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road** as a treat. I’m sure I’ll have lots of thoughts on it. They call it “football” and not “soccer,” so they’re already off to a great start. ## Signing Off Gonna be watching **Predator: Badlands** tonight, my first IMAX showing since…*flips through notebook*…I actually don’t know! Damn! That’ll be fun. I hope your Sunday is treating you well! Hit the ko-fi link below if you like and want to support this letter. Thanks for reading! https://ko-fi.com/barquq
