Completionnaire's Disease is a bitch.

Croton breaks down the damage and modifiers of the Sages' attacks and abilities. I typically play with the Sages off unless I need a specific ability, but it was interesting seeing the numbers.

I'm always down for more OYW content. Can't say I'm happy about the Netflix jail part.

I need one of these. To glue onto my car tire.

Kinda digging the new Lacus look. And count me among those that think the new mini Haro plushies are adorable.

A lot of Gunpla news that's mostly out of date since the expo started last week and a lot of stuff has sold out in the US.

Not really a whole lot to talk about personally, but Kakarot is nothing if not thorough. Chapter data for skimming purposes:

There are some story spoilers, as this glitch leverages a late-game plot fight.

Gonna preface this with saying that this is going to be more informational than practical for most people. Just too many restrictions. But the hope is that this leads to further discoveries. As it stands, the save file needs to have completed the regional phenomena but not turned them in to Purah yet. And once the glitch is active, the save cannot progress past beating the story Phantom Ganon fight. Which kind of kills the buzz IMO. Even so, it continues to boggle my mind how people find this stuff.

Not mine, just sharing cool stuff.

This is awful.

I'm not sure how recent this is, but Gundam.info put up an interactive flow chart to recommend a Gundam series to watch. Aside from the random translation misses ("Are you interested in story of engineers then pilots") the recommendations seem random. But they're not: it's all deterministic and repeatable. One portion of the tree as an example:

UC: yes
Short series: no
Origin of series: yes -> MSG movie I

Origin of series: no
Boy meets girl: no -> Gundam The Origin 🤨

Boy meets girl: yes -> Unicorn OVA

That "engineers then pilots" question? Answering yes leads to Twilight Axis. Really? That's your plan to get people into Gundam? 🤦‍♂️

Anyone find anything else facepalm-worthy?

Edit: why are we continuing the Reddit-like unintuitive line break markup? goes back and adds extra white space to start new lines as if CR/LF doesn't exist 😑

Admittedly, I don't follow any TotK content aside from here and on YT. Discord isn't my cup of tea, and Reddit lost me this past summer. So a lot of these tidbits might be old news. But I do love Kleric's style.

I adore this show. Fellow Gundam fans, you should give this a shot, even if the aesthetic puts you off.
