Bring Arts – Final Fantasy VII – Aerith Gainsborough

I just want to put out front here, Aerith, is not my favorite Final Fantasy VII character. In fact, she is probably on the bottom, by quite a bit. Like, I have a few favorites (Yuffie, Cait Sith, Cid) and everyone else is a bit below that in a plane, and then there is Aerith. But considering I plan to get everyone else from this line, it would be lame to leave out Aerith. Especially because, though I dislike her, she is, very much, central to the plot. I mean, aside from Cloud and Sephiroth, you could remove almost any…

Star Trek Discovery – Season 5

And now for the final season of Star Trek Discovery. I have a whole mess of notes to make sense of, and a lot of them are more just, about the series in general. So let's see where we boldly go on this one. Actually, it turns out it's not that much. I kind of had a hard time caring enough to finish this series and season and the whole series has felt a bit downhill for a while. After feeling a bit more like Star Trek for the last few seasons, Discovery seems like its fully embraces its Not…

Sky Children of the Light 5th Anniversary

With the 5th Anniversary even now closed out, I wanted to take a moment to share some random shots and comments on the various activities. I didn't spend as much time in the game doing things as I feel like I should have, but also, it was a bit chaotic, which kind of feels like a regular problem for some of these events. I did not realize until last minute that the portals took you to the special gallery areas. I think for the most part, I managed to catch everything at least once. There were the two wireframe galleries,…

Action Toys – Voltron Vehicle Force

Everyone knows the classic Voltron version with its 5 lions. There have been a few versions from the Stealth Voltron and Netflix Voltron and the newer Modern Voltron. There was also an additional team though that was made up of 15 vehicles, divided into three teams, colloquially called, "Vehicle Voltron." Like the Lions, it was based on a Japanese series, in this case, Dairugger XV. I have always really loved the Vehicle Voltron design, even though the Lions always got all the love. Ok, more specifically, I like the combined mode design more, the separated designs are, kind of lame…

Star Trek Discovery – Season 4

As expected, despite there technically being ways, the crew is just staying in the Future's Future. This season has been kind of meh overall, it really really feels like a rehash of the last two seasons except now Space Elon is the bad guy. Also, are the actors getting bored with the show? Or maybe just, COVID messed up everyone's schedules? It feels like a lot of the lesser characters started leaving near the end of the season. At least, the ones they didn't give some characterization to. Last season they sort of gave Detmer a few bits of actual…
