Spring 2020

Animal Crossing: New Horizons

I'm glad it got so popular that people who thought it seemed boring, tried it out after hearing about it so much and ended up loving it. I always get annoyed with gamers not giving games like Animal Crossing a chance. 

Scrubs podcast

I'm so happy this exists! The two main actors are actually good friends and are talking about their time on Scrubs. They're rewatching the show one ep at a time and it's so funny! 

Control

I finally got to own this game and play it myself. I watched a full playthrough when I couldn't afford it and I loved it. Playing it has made me love it even more. It's really fucking fun to play and I love the main character so much. I played the DLC and I love how she's become so cocky about how powerful she is. I can't wait for more. 

Observation

All I knew about this game is that there's a woman who teams up with an AI. I had no idea I played as the AI! I was so happy! Plus, this game ended up being really good, story wise. I loved the ending. I need more games like this, please!

Assassin's Creed Odyssey

I'm still playing through it but so far it's really fun and I like my female character. I've never played an Assassin's Creed game but when I seen it on sale and seen that I can choose to be a female throughout the whole game, I just had to get it.
I love too that you can romance everyone that the game lets you and it's not exclusive to one character. You can have multiple lovers without them getting mad because they never find out. 

I wish other games did that, because the only other games I can think of that comes close is Mass Effect Andromeda. You can romance a reporter and a historian without it conflicting with your main romantic interest.  I need more games to give us secret lovers, please.   

Better Call Saul season 5

The first series where I paid to own it digitally. I just really wanted to marathon this show and seen it was on sale in the Playstation store, just needed to get it then and there. It's during a stressful time and I needed another distraction from the world.

I really loved this season! Can't wait for season 6! 

Never Have I Ever

This show was a nice treat, its so funny! The adults are funnier than the kids but still worth a watch. The mom is my favorite character, so funny! I hope season 2 holds up when it comes out.
Also, the music in this show is so good.

The Leftovers rewatch

First Time Show podcast is back! I'm so happy to be watching The Leftovers with them.
I just wish one of the hosts would chill out. They're too negative about the show and it's annoying. Other than that, I am enjoying the podcast. 

Spring cleaning

My place was becoming a mess and I finally got into the mood of organizing stuff and my place feels so much bigger. I still have more to clean but it's looking good and it makes me feel better seeing it so nice and neat.

Indie games 

I finally got to play some indie games I had in my library:

Celeste - I LOVED that this game had "god mode" I got to just enjoy the story without having to solve puzzles and dying over and over. More side scrollers should have in game cheats as an option to make the game feel relaxing. 

Mutazione - This was a really interesting game. I loved getting to know the history of the island and the people on it. And having choices on how to respond to characters was fun. I do think this game was longer than it needed to be but I still would recommend this game to others.

A Short Hike - This felt like a short Zelda game. The main story is to climb a mountain to make a phone call but you can explore around and solve little quests for characters. It was really cute and relaxing. 

Unravel - I've been wanting to play this game for a long time and finally got to when I seen it on sale. It was so good at making me not think about the world. My favorite levels were snowy ones. 

Bad Stuff

Virus - people just being fucking selfish and not staying away from crowds and not wearing masks. White people even went out to protest, with guns, against wearing masks and having to stay home. Fuck people.

Cops killing people - And people are still on the side of the cops. I'm sick of this. I had conversations with friends and family and it's stressful. Fuck tone policing. 

Other bad stuff are not as big as the two I wrote about above but here they are:

Dead To Me season 2 - It tried too hard to fit in the funny moments while I felt like season 1 did a better job at picking moments to be funny. 

Spinning Out - Started out strong then it gets cheesy at the end.

Outlander Season 4 and 5 - Too much rape and war. Think of something different for fucks sake!

April

Favorites this month:

Attack On Titan season 2 is finally here and I'm happy to see more of this series animated. Nothing really to say about it but so far so good, it's being faithful to the manga.

Better Call Saul season 3 is out and I'm so excited to see how these characters met and started working together. 

The new Overwatch event was really fun! I loved how it was a little story mode.

The Leftovers is the show I'm most excited for to watch. This is the third and final season of this series and I'm happy about that. Yes, it sucks when a good story ends but I rather it not go on for too long and I feel like this story needs to wrap up.

I got the Mass Effect coloring book that just came out and I'm so happy that the female Shepard is on the first page. I just wish this coloring book didn't have any Andromeda stuff in it. I wish it was just for the Mass Effect trilogy. I rather Andromeda have it's own coloring book. I just wanted more pages of the trilogy. 

My very first POP figure! I love that Ryder's face is covered so I can imagine that she looks like my Ryder. I just don't like that "Sara" is the name that's on the box. I thought "Sara" was an optional name. Not the canon name...I rather they just labeled it "Female Ryder" 

Bad thing this month:

This book is so bad and very disappointing. Characters are stupid and annoying. The ending is not satisfying and I wish I could get my money back (but I waited too long to read it from the time I bought it...). 

My top 10 favorite shows of 2015

1. The Leftovers Season 2

I am in love with this show. The Leftovers is a different type of apocalypse compared to the common ones in most series.

When side characters get their own episode, it's always interesting. Always has my attention.
Better than Lost. I hated lots of episodes in Lost that wasted time on side characters.

The Leftovers seems to be random but in later episodes it shows that it was very thought out. Season two proved that it's not bullshit magic like it is in Lost.

2. The Killing

The last season for this show actually came out last year but I never watched until this year.

At first, it seems like a crime show like Law and Order, where every episode is a new crime. But it's not, it's an actual series so don't skip any episodes! 

I love the two main characters. Their friendship and interactions reminds me of Walt and Jesse's friendship. The way they develop to trust and care about each other and all the times they argue and fight each other, is so good. 

Also, no one is sexualized, so that's always a plus.  

There's only four seasons. It's perfect. 

3. The Walking Dead S5-6

I love this show. I think it get better and better. 

4. Better Call Saul

If you love Breaking Bad then you'll love Better Call Saul. The tension from the main series is in this too.

5. Sound! Euphonium

I made a whole blog post on why this anime is amazing compared to other slice of life/high school club anime. Click here to read it. 

6. Noragami Aragoto Season 2

It's fun, funny and cute. I wish the season was longer than just 13 episodes.

7. One Punch Man

It's fun and funny. The fight scenes are awesome.

(I think it's funny how people are trying to figure out his power level when it's in the damn title.)

8. Fear The Walking Dead

"They should just cancel The Walking Dead and just concentrate on FearTWD." Fuck you. The more the merrier.

Excited for the second season!

9. House of Cards Season 3

I love this show even though I'm not on the main character's side. Anything that hurts him or makes him upset, I cheer for. It's fun.

10. RWBY Vol. 3

The fight scenes is where this anime shines.
Anyone who doesn't want to watch it just because it's a anime with English voices, fuck you. But they are making a Japanese dub so there you go.

I'm really proud of RoosterTeeth's anime becoming so popular. It's amazing.

Honorable mention: Prison School

It's so funny!
