  1. Except for dealing with the latest episode episode of The Ancient Magus, I finally finished the last of the things that I have to deal with for a while, so I now have a break until the 19th, though Saturdays will not be completely free. Finally, I can relax and play game, or maybe I should take the time to try my hand at making a WordPress theme.

  2. Just beat a boss fight I was expecting to lose, and on the first attempt too.

      Same! It was a hard one on Horizon Zero Dawn. What game are you playing?

      Dragon Quest 8. I was fighting against Dhoulmagus and depleted a lot of MP.

  3. Not really happy today. This is the first time I truly get time off before new releases comes out, so I wanted to play a game I got, but looks like that will not happen without guilt trips or being asked too many questions. Oh well, I can always look up where I am stuck in my game later.

  4. Happy to finally have a break today. Of course, that does not beat  the best part about it for me is that I will probably not be overloaded this month.

      Happy you got a break and good you probably not be overloaded this month as well. Hope things go good for  now on, and you the rest of the month for you. Always take care and sending you good and positive vibes your way~

  5. One of the things I got as birthday present, though it was one that I had to buy myself for my family, was the first installment of Wolf & Parchment, the sequel to Spice & Wolf, and I thought that some of you guys would like to see what I thought of it.

  6. Happy to be able to relax today, instead of fighting crowds. Really do not need that in my life.

  7. Sometimes, books, especially installments of a series, can be good quality-wise, but just not enjoyable because you have been away for too long, and this was that book for me.

  8. Excited to get a new manga today. I was not expecting to get it until next year, due to how the place ships things out.

      That's awesome! Which manga?

      a series called In/Spectre. When I first heard about it, there were supposedly seven books, but this has been labelled as the final volume.

  9. Finally get a proper day to relax, so I guess I will play The Sims 3. Also, if anyone is interested, I do have a AMA thread that you can get in on if you wish, but I do not plan on starting a new , as one is enough.

     

  10. Thanks for the follow.

  11. Sometimes, it hurts when something happens, even if you know it is inevitable, and today is one of those days that keeps reminding me enough that I would rather stay home than go somewhere where I used to belong. Then again, doing that will cut off my line of support for when family cannot be there to help, due to various reasons.

      @brycec I hope things get better for you in whatever happen today or recently, also please try and hang in there. You've helped me quite a lot and I appreciate that very much. I know I don't know too much like you do or most people but if you ever need something I'm here to help out all I can even if it's just listening and supporting you. Take care~

      Thanks @SleepyLeoulf I will keep that in mind.

  12. Man, it has been a busy week this week. Luckily, things should be much lighter the week of my birthday.

      That is more my style! No people!

      Yeah, mine too. It’s just too bad people cannot understand that there is nothing wrong with me because I do not like being around people much. Oh well, there are a lot of things people do not realize about others. Thank goodness the Internet was invented.

    4. Vivi Hyuuga

      Truth. The internet has always been my most reliable form of social interaction. It just makes it so much easier to connect with people who understand you, because you can find them anywhere in the world! And I don't have to be overstimulated by having a lot of people around me. 

  13. Thanks for the follow.

      You're welcome.

  14. Well, this stinks. I was trying to get my part fulfill today at another community and things started acting weird, regardless of browser. Hopefully, the Hmod or a fellow mod will answer soon about what to do.

  15. Day was not too bad, but did encounter a post that gave me the creeps over in the community where I am a mod. It was not something that would go against the rules, as far as I know, but got a creepy vibe from it.

  16. Excited to get some new books this week, one of which is one of the books I had to buy myself as a present.

  17. Finished watching this week's episode, of The Ancient Magus Bride, and I think this one was pretty good, as events were not too confusing.

  18. Guest posting did not work out too well, since Things seemed a bit strange, since they were looking for people like me, instead of me in particular. Still, it is kind of weird for them to contact me when ANB is a much bigger name in the community, whereas I only have a bit of a standing in the DC community, with MB being the only true equivalent to ANB there.

      Ehh, shame things didn't work out brycec. Still, there are always other opportunities and stuff ^^

      It’s not too bad. They were a relatively new site, with domain registered in 2016 and earliest post in Dec. 2016, and the reviews they wrote on their site were not that appealing. I did try contacting ANB, who is fairly nice, to see if he did any guest posting, to see what it normal, as I never guest posted before, and he most likely thought I needed advice. I was likely like leaning towards turning them down though (I prefer to do blogs somewhere where I have control anyway).

  19. Got an email about guest posting at a site that I never even heard of. Kind of nice that they are interested in reaching out, since it does help me gain exposure, but something seems suspicious because the email was vague, as it does not tell me what I will be talking about, other than anime and manga. Right now, I am trying to look into the site.

    1. brycec

      So far, it looks like the site is relatively young, with a domain registration date of 2016 and oldest post is from December 2016, which makes it younger than my blog, which started in 2011 and has been at its current domain since 2012, and their site does seem to have a good following, but their content for reviews does not seem like mine, in that they are much less detailed and do not explain things quite well.

      My content may not be perfect, but the newness and the way their reviews look does not seem to be that appealing to me, nor does it have that grab.

  20. Decided to try out the Girls' Last Tour manga, to see if it was any good, as I cannot watch the anime, and I am not really impressed with the two volumes of it I read. If you guys want to see my thoughts on it, this page lists all my reviews for the series (I probably will not go beyond volume 3 at this rate).

  21. Recently realized that I have gotten an early break, even with the small things I need to do tomorrow, so I can just relax while waiting for Ancient Magus Bride.

  22. Not quite my birthday yet, but I found it funny that I had to buy two of my presents for myself for my family, as Amazon will not allow gifting digital preorders.

    Seriously, Amazon needs to change things some day because I already have too many books in print to store.

  23. Recently experienced a situation similar to what this guy experienced in a theater, but at home. Do people realize we need to have quiet to be able to enjoy things?

     

  24. Kind of sad that Crunchy is down right now. Was hoping to see the next episode of DC, but I guess that and possibly Ancient Magus Bride will need to wait (browser I use makes most other sites not work properly, and I would rather not turn off those functionalities, due to how annoying the allternatives to the legal sites can be).

  25. Saw that there was a book I wanted coming soon,  but I cannot get it because the publisher is not allowing preorders in the format I want.  I might just have to wait longer to get it, since it is not really a great month to get anything close to its release date.

      What kind of book is it? A novel?

    2. brycec

      A graphic novel. I am trying to keep up with Jun Mochizuki’s new work, and due to my disappointment with the volumes after buying individual chapters, I decided to stick with volumes. I can preorder it from a different store, but it is not as convenient, due to how images are seemingly corrupted in a way that you can only read them in certain software.
