| 9:38am | Rewatching Read or Die | | | | “Zaaaa Paaaay-paaaaah!!” Man, even years later hearing that ridiculous Engrish pronunciation of Yomiko Readman’s codename still makes me laugh out loud. I really should go back and rewatch my favorite classics more often. It helps recapture some of that nostalgic enjoyment that got... | | |

| 3:52am | Guff Back in Japan | | | | Greetings all, So I’m back in Japan again, here to take up my Japanese studies once more.

| 5:01am | Someone Needs to Make a Saki RPG | | | | Seriously. With all the ridiculous metaphorical battle cutscenes they’ve been throwing at us, someone needs to make this happen soon.

| 5:55am | Haxx, Upgrades, and Server Issues, Oh My | | | | Mmm, my favorite. Yes, it’s true. Not only has Epic Win had some painful issues with our server host the last few weeks, we also got h4xx0red. And to top it all off Guff has abandoned me again and flown back to Japan.
