Gen 1 Pokemon and Kanto's geography are probably my least favorite (although I still haven't gotten around to playing gen 7). Gen 5 is fine. Sinnoh wasn't a particularly interesting region. Realistic Pokemon, even if it's just Pokken levels are a bad idea. Game Freak is holding the games back...

I come back to the beach to edit my profile and find someone pushing far right propaganda lol. Cultural Marxism is a conspiracy theory literally invented by Nazis originally called cultural Bolshevism before being resurrected by neo-nazis based on a misunderstanding of both the Frankfurt school...

I'd imagine some of it is an attempt to appeal to their target audience. I've also heard it suggested that part of the high school nostalgia has to do with Japan's workaholic culture so people in their overly demanding workforce would long for the days when all they had to worry about were exams.

Talonflame is better in practice than on paper. The 80 or so Attack doesn't look like much but a STAB 120 move and often Sharp Beak or CB makes up for it and priority is a big deal. A CB set can't expect to demolish walls, but Talonflame nukes moderately frail mons and anything weak to Brave...

Madoka, Geass, and From the New World/Shin Seaki Yori seem like things you'd like, although Geass is from 07. I've heard Vampire Bund and Rail Wars are pretty bad. You might enjoy Gurren Lagann and various comedy/sol/romance such as: Spice and Wolf, Nichijou, Detroit Metal City, Non Non Biyori...

I thought Attack on Titan had pretty mediocre writing to be honest. It was an enjoyable show because of the directing+art+animation+OST+premise, but the actual writing istelf I found to be very lackluster. The characters had little, if any, depth and development , the pacing felt very drawn out...

Turn on the Bright Lights I'd give a high 8 to low 9. I really enjoy the sound Interpol uses that sounds like a more "fun" Joy Division but still manages to not feel like they're ripping off the older sounds they're inspired by. I regret not having much to say about an album I enjoy as much as...

I'd be pretty wary about checking out Overlord and Ultimate Otaku Teacher, tbh. Overlord wasn't bad from the one episode I saw but I haven't heard very good things about it from people with experience and opinions I trust and the first episode of UOT was painfully unfunny to me and felt like a...

My choice is Turn on the Bright Lights by Interpol

That's right, the mascara snake, fast and bulbous. You guys can blame me for introducing BC to this. Trout Mask Replica reminds me of a Jackson Pollock painting in the sense that I appreciate what it's doing more than I actually enjoy consuming it. All the choices definitely feel deliberate...

Be glad he didn't pick Philosophy of the World by The Shaggs

It's a joke about how Zoe, a high school teacher, doesn't understand how her brother can like teaching kids all day, but at least he kids won't shoot up the school. High school shootings are a notable thing that has happened in the States (Columbine, etc). It seems pretty clear to me that it's...

It's happened before. Masons are just people who can communicate because they're family or part of a club or something so one could have turned evil or be an impostor or something in terms of flavor. It isn't the case this time around because my role explicitly states that we're both town, though.

I'm not super convinced, but the case against KoN seems the best to me at the moment, and if he turns out to be telling the truth, then we won't lose a townie, so I figure I'll go for it. I don't suspect Drac too much because from what I remember he always plays similar to this and he does come...
