    (Avoiding responding/looking at MT's posts for now, will respond whenever I get around to seeing BOLA) Speaking of PWG, Cobb vs Jonathan Gresham at Mystery Vortex VI was effing awesome, loved the shit out of that (and was kinda surprised, Cobb sells a bit too much for smaller guys ime and even though Gresham can make it work, he's still is one of the tiniest guys in a major promotion) Think I'ma try out MLW this week. Heard enough Cornette rants and saw some of those guys on Josh Barnett's Bloodsport 2 to think that mebs I should check it out.

    Aight, went and stole it and played a bit with both. The OG Switch feels flimsier, the Lite feels compact and solid, like you could drop it and it could absorb the fall. The shoulder buttons feel like they have more padding on them, lighter to press. The screen is smaller but it doesn't seem significantly smaller. My sister mentioned noticing a slight difference and she does play handheld on the OG far more often than I do. It came with an AC Adapter, which was something she was worried about because the box was so small The Yellow looks nice. If you want me to justify you getting one, I can give it a thumbs up.

    Regular Switch cramps my hands, Lite actually feels more comfortable to hold, but I didn't play the Lite for any extended time. D-Pad on the lite is noticeably better. Nothing else really stood out to me.

    Anime of the Season

    Vinland Saga. Violent viking revenge story, badass animation during fight scenes, strong characters who will also self-reflect (similar a bit to how Guts will self-reflect on his life and actions in Berserk). Though, not completely the blow-away anime of the season, there is shit going down in Black Clover (it steals a lot of plot-patterning from Naruto, we're in the Chuunin Exams where the Hidden Sound just launched their sneak attack), Yaiba's second cour has steadily built and expanded to where I'm really interested in seeing where it goes (and some of the best animation I've ever seen, god damn). Also the two episodes of Fruits Basket Season 1 that I liked the most happened during this cour and it was probably more emotional than anything else. Fire Force had the coolest style. So yeah, Vinland is AOTS but not runaway. The surprise of the season for me was Araburu Kisetsu no Otome-domo yo/Maidens of the Savage Season. I never would've caught this if I had just judged it on the description. On the surface, it's about a high school literature club of nerdy girls who are starting to have crushes and sexual thoughts about boys (the first episode is fucking hilarious) but some of the subplots start getting mature and some of them started to get fucked up to the point where it's dipping in and out of adorable coming-of-age hijinx and "some of these people could go to jail if you called the cops right now" territory. It's also a bit of a disappointment because they had a bad anime-only ending for the last two episodes. I may have to hit up the manga to see how this one ends. Intro of the season goes to Vinland Saga Outro of the season goes to Fire Force

I didn't get one Star Coin in one level because I either already did it on Wii U or gave up on it on Wii U (Fire Bar Sprint, you have to accidentally get the right timing to run through a level without getting hit, shit's dumb). I was kinda hyped to pick up Mario Maker at some point but I think I'm 2d'ed out again.

    Fall Anime 2019

    100% recommend High Score Girl Season 1. Was not expecting it to feel nostalgic or heartwarming but it managed both

  12. Two or three songs or maybe an album that you've been listening to over the last week KRS-One putting on the Jamaican accent = someone's about to die

    [AEW vs NXT] Wednesday Night War: Week 0

    1.179 million viewers. #4 for the 18-49 demo, #19 for overall viewership. About 60% of the Raw/SDL audience but apparently a lot more their younger viewers stuck with it.
  14. NXT had a pretty good TV showing but I don't think it's a good split having the second half of the show on the network every week, but then again I guess you need somewhere for 205 and developmental talent to go. Also AEW apparently bought as much ad time in whatever localized markets they could and had AEW commercials running during NXT.

    I'm not familiar with about 6 guys in this year's BOLA.

    I recognize Gentleman Jervis (if that's Jervis Cottonbelly) and I remember seeing Arik Cannon in some Chikara back in the day. Indies about to hit some tough times with all these TV start-ups. I think Joey Ryan signed with Impact recently (again) too

    That AOP promo was good as fuck. Made me think of the twins from Breaking Bad The King of the Ring Final should've ended about 20 seconds earlier than it did.

    Vinland Saga

    Ep 10
  23. I held off watching the NJPW show just to see if it was over-saturation killing me on WWE shows but nop, lost interest in the middle of Kofi/RKO and skipped through the rest. Even when I generally like the TV product and some of the match finishes, shit's too long and the style saps my interest

    Gaming Regrets Mk II

    No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle. Bought it full price, beat it just over a day later, was kinda like "Yeah, I should wait for most games to go on sale." Also part of the reason I love achievements so much is because even games like that will have some artificial replay value because of it. A console I maybe regret is the sticking with the Gamecube over the PS2, but then again almost everything on the PS2 has been re-released with achievements on later consoles. Wii U's looking like a bust atm too since almost everything's been re-released on the Switch. Just Mario 3D World, the first Splatoon, and Xenoblade X (which froze on me and doesn't have auto-save, so I'm too spooked to play it) out of what I played is still exclusive.
