My In-laws Are Really Cool. They Don’t Watch Anime But They Know I Watch Anime And Will Get Me Anime

these are my demands

Planet Comicon 2024 Haul!!

So this year, we didn’t get as much art as we did last year. For two reasons: 1. We still haven’t hing up all of the art we got last year. 2. My wife and I are currently househunting so there’s not much point in hanging up more art. Anyway, I opted to get figures and other stuff instead!

First up we have figures of Mash Burnedead from Mashle: Magic and Muscles, Piccolo from Dragon Ball Z and, of course, Ichigo Kurosaki from Bleach. On top of them is a Mudkip Kirby keychain. My wife got one of Oddish Kirby. Those are our favorite Pokémon. We match!

Next up we have this galaxy cat t-shirt from Tee Turtle. It’s pretty neat. And finally,

This plushie of Porunga from Dragon Ball Z. It’s pretty cool. Hopes for next year (or at least Planet Anime later this year) is to find some Undead Unluck figures. Particularly of Fuuko and Andy. Had a great time.

AHHHHHHHHHH!!! THE MUSIC! THE CHARACTERS!! GANONDORF!!!!! I cannot wait for next month!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

yuzu sent them on an errand hehe

“"I’ve got no choice but to crush it with my fist." MASHLE: MAGIC AND MUSCLES comes to Crunchyroll this April! @MashleAnimeENG ✨ READ MORE

This is one of the funniest series I’ve ever read. I can’t recommend it enough. One of my favorite series running in Jump right now, though it is close to ending. Anyway, this trailer is great. Perfectly captures the series. Go read or watch Mashle. 🤩

Well, it took four and a half years but I finally caught COVID. It’s just mild symptoms but I’ll still need to isolate for about a week. Hopefully it’ll pass pretty quickly. In the meantime, let’s look at the positives. I’ve got a backlog of games and anime to work through so that’ll be fun.

Been watching Totally Not Mark’s One Piece review series and it’s making me wanna reread the manga from the beginning. I’ve only been reading since Zou and have been caught up since. Before that, I had only seen the anime. Also been thinking about rewatching the dub from where I left off there (Marineford). Like, I really want to but it’s such a huge commitment. Once I get caught up with Mark’s reviews I’ll start seriously considering it.

Going live in 19 minutes!

I don’t plan on advertising my Twitch everytime I stream but I might start doing posts at the beginning of the week to be like, “Hey here’s my schedule!” or something. So that’s what this is.

Tonight @ 7:30 pm (CT): Paper Mario

Thursday @ 7:30 pm (CT): Paper Mario

I’ll probably talk more about what my plans are for future streams soon. I plan to play a lot of older games that I’m familiar with but I’ll mix in some newer games every now and then. But for now, more Paper Mario!!!! Woo!

Got back from Planet Comicon with such a great haul of art! And a phone charm. 🤩 Let’s go over the art first.

These are all so sick. Most of them were “buy 2, get one free” so my wife and I went on a shopping spree. The Hollow Ichigo, Gear 5 Luffy, and inky Hollow Knight prints are from shanesauerart on Instagram. The other Hollow Knight prints on the right are from @itsmandymo here on Tumblr and other platforms (I have their business card in another photo). The Splatoon 3 Deep Cut print is from Andy Kluthe (again, business card in another photo). The Mario print at the top is from Amourable Art (business card photo). I actually have three other prints I got from them last year of Ichigo, Luffy and the Elric Brothers.

My wife also got some prints from them this time of Howl’s Moving Castle and Majora’s Mask.

All in all, some pretty cool stuff. BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE!

These lovely Bleach, Chainsaw Man, and Samurai Jack prints are from Sketch Cartel who can be found on Instagram. I also got a print from them last year of Sukuna and Yuji from Jujutsu Kaisen.

They’re all so pretty. 🤩 Now, this next photo is all of the business card we acquired for some of the artists mentioned above.

Finally, the last thing I got was THIS!

A Magnemite phone charm! Isn’t it adorable? FYI, I’ve owned the Bleach phone case for about a month or two now. It’s not new but it is neat. Anyway, this little guy was being sold with other Pokémon merch not normally found outside of Japan. So that’s pretty neat.

All in all, I had a pretty great time at Planet Comicon and can’t wait to go again next year. I’ve been to it about five times and had a blast each time. This October, they’re gonna open a new sister con, Planet Anime. I am stoked for that. More cool art to add to my collection!!! And maybe some autographs from english dub voice actors. 🤩
