Much derp in Tachikawa

Posted on July 18, 2014 by baudattitude

I’ve been known to go quite a bit out of my way to go to places I’ve seen in anime.  I went all the way to freakin’ KOCHI, of all places, just because I really liked Umi ga Kikoeru, and … Continue reading →

That’s not gonna help the backlog.

Posted on July 17, 2014 by baudattitude

So I just got back from a week and a bit in Japan.  I’m happy to report that it’s still there, still terribly polite to clueless foreigners, and generally a fun place to wander around in even if it occasionally … Continue reading →

I regret nothing

Posted on July 17, 2014 by baudattitude

            I have a few simple rules of thumb. One is a subjective test of movie quality that I call the “Bloodrayne Test”.  It compares any given movie to Uwe Boll’s 2005 trainwreck, and a … Continue reading →

It’s The Little Things

Posted on June 24, 2014 by baudattitude

Dunhulkin’

Posted on June 22, 2014 by baudattitude

Hulking Out

Posted on June 15, 2014 by baudattitude

A few years back, tired of giving up half our living space to media, we moved our DVDs and games into space-saving sleeves. Now that I’m selling some of them on, I’m having to reconstitute them into new keep cases. … Continue reading →

Orta This World

Posted on June 14, 2014 by baudattitude

Embarrassingly enough, once I finally got around to playing Panzer Dragoon Orta, it turns out that it’s a pretty short game. The in-game clock put my final time at just under four hours, which probably includes a few false starts … Continue reading →

And boy, are my arms tired!

Posted on June 12, 2014 by baudattitude
