when you're just supposed to drive your tiny car around and make balloon animals but nobody else is doing any of the work and you're the only person holding the place together

There's some new game being called the next Expedition 33 because of the combat but what really set E33 apart was the worldbuilding, the care that went into creating a living universe where French people are real

"Ask permission before petting a dog" Did the first human who picked a wild berry, or hunted a boar, or planted the first crop ask for permission? And yet because of their actions we are alive today! If they were wrong in your eyes, if you stand in my way, I must see you as an enemy of humanity!

I hate "fan service" in anime, it's objectifying and creepy. It's weird zoom ins on body parts in situations where those body parts aren't relevant and pantyshots and humiliation. If you want sexual content in your anime let characters have sex in a way that show they have agency and enjoyment.

wasn't expecting shoujo romfan to have much more complexity beyond "stopping crime = good" but the Victoria one hit me with the "the guy you saved is a rapist who will get a slap on the wrist and the guy you stopped from killing his sister's rapist will be executed"
