@gkids.com's release of The Last Blossom had the worst and best subtitles surprises.
Worst: Subs were desynced 2-3 seconds.
Best: Credits were fully translated, first time I've seen that. Absolutely loved it as someone who makes a point to watch credits, massive props to those who made it happen.

Had a funny Gunpla realization:
The 20th anniversary kit (First Grade) and the 45th anniversary kit (Best Mecha Collection Revival Ver.) are opposite versions of the same idea.

In an incredible alignment of the stars, I got to see Cherry and Virgin for a second time.
I am happy to report that it holds up.

If you're going to Otakuthon, PLEASE consider putting Cherry and Virgin (early movie screening) on your schedule. (Saturday 5:15-6:45pm)
This is the second-ever showing of what will be one of the best anime movies of next year. Do not pass it up.

Reading Le Phénomène Gundam by @jpdubrulle.bsky.social (French Gundam translator and president of @aeug.fr) as research for my Intro to Gundam panel.
Likely the best one-stop resource on Gundam in a non-asian language. Highly recommended if you can read French.

They say Young Ladies Don't Play Fighting Games, but then it seems like the young ladies do play fighting games. So yes, I would call that bad game design.

As perhaps the last person still actively thinking about GQuuuuuuX, I am slowly losing my mind and tempted to post increasingly esoteric and unhinged takes

This season of anime has been pretty fantastic
I don't know that any show from this season is in running for my Anime of the Year, but every show I've been watching has been executing at a really high level (and I've been watching more shows than usual)

Is anyone here knowledgeable about the Gundam generation? (i.e. the New Anime Era Declaration generation, ~= Gen X / Shinjinrui?)
I'm working on a reading of GQuuuuuuX as allegory for Khara's relationship with Gundam, but it's not as well sourced as I'd like; looking for someone to poke holes in it
