Masami Obari mentions getting into an SRW game (Cross Omega's Pop Team Epic event) when discussing "Things 80% of your followers probably haven't experienced". Terada adds: "For the record, this was not Obari-san's idea. It was my request, and I was honestly expecting him to say no."

Comp copy day! Dragon Quest: The Mark of Erdrick, volume 5, in which we see the origins of Chun Li's signature "Sorry!" pose from Street Fighter.

Beat Fortune's Weave at just around the 150 hour mark. That is a lot of game. While I'm glad to put it down for a while, I'll be looking forward to whatever DLC eventually comes out for it.

The titles of Japanese manga have literally doubled in length since 2011, according to study https://automaton-media.com/en/news/the-titles-of-japanese-manga-have-literally-doubled-in-length-since-2011-according-to-study/

The anime season may have ended, but Mimi’s shenanigans are just getting started! Always a Catch! Vol. 8 is on sale today! 🐟

I'm fascinated by the implication that a large number of presumably young adults think the writers of a toy cartoon are the ones deciding what to name the toys.

fantasy maiden wars is out on switch now, and if you're curious about it, or touhou on general, even a LITTLE BIT, PLEASE read jake's article. this game really is an incredible labor of love that deserves to be played and talked about

JAKE@guiltyjake.bsky.social · last yr.

To everyone reading this right now. I'm JAKE. I'm the Japanese person who recently published this article and promoted it on Twitter (X). note.com/guiltyjake/n... This article introduces Fantasy Maiden Wars, an amazing game I absolutely love.

The Something Awful Let's Play thread for Super Robot Wars Impact got to my favorite bit of dialogue in all of part 1.

I can't find a source for this off-hand, but in terms of his bona fides, I believe he's done E>J translation work professionally and he's perfectly conversant IIRC, so I'm personally not worried about AI usage, especially since it's meant to be reference material for a proper J>E translation later.

Aya Nishitani has posted his English translations for the 1st 3 chapters of Megami Tensei!

A fan asked Kazuma Kaneko about the Dis Astranagant on Twitter, and he actually responded! Terada added a quote with his own remarks as well.

Today I learned that the horse Trombe ("tornado") in Super Robot Wars OG wasn't based on Char's horse from CCA, and was instead based on Ryo Sakazaki's horse from Art of Fighting 2, whose name is Tatsumaki (also "tornado").

Heavens, would you look at the time

Comp copy day! Uncle from Another World volume 13, coming out July 28! The games in the back are American Sega Genesis classics this time.

Assembled a metal slime today \o/

Viz Media's Shonen Jump and Shueisha's Manga Plus services add the supernatural action manga Twilight Blade!

Now that volume 7 is officially out— I've taken over translation work on Always a Catch!, AKA that one romance fantasy series with the girl with the knuckle duster hairclip. I hope the readers enjoy the latest volume! And for those unfamiliar, there's an anime this season on Crunchyroll!

Pretty sure that Fei Fong Wong’s pull-tab can of Soylent System grub is in the running for funniest action figure accessory of all time

I have verified this with my source. Said source is incredibly reliable: he was the translator for the first official English releases of Gundam anime in the late 90s (the movies and the sidestories). He actually knows where these came from, and the sources came from Japan! 🧵

Casval ☄️🏳️‍⚧️@redcomets.net · 5mo ago

When English translations of Gundam media use the term "feddie" is that a direct translation...? Like is there also a slang word for the the Federation in Japanese? I'm just curious, I always wondered if that was a fan thing or not. (Same with "zeek" actually)

Summoner in FF14 is relaxing because I can just push buttons and as long as I've pushed all of my buttons by the time my big button refreshes, I'm basically playing optimally. (Or so I choose to believe as a casual; I retired from high-end raiding during ARR)

Player question!! What do you love about your main job? What draws you to play it?

I was discussing Super Robot Wars Impact with a friend recently and had to share this gem.

Today I learned there's a Getter Robo mahjong manga. Maybe I should learn mahjong.
