Nice website. I love your "Internet Graveyard" page, as sad as it may be. Might I suggest for you to add Flickr and AlbinoBlackSheep under the "Technically not Dead section", since the former limited photo uploads and the latter was unable to save a lot of the games following the death of flash. I look forward to future updates. Keep up the good work!

AlbinoBlackSheep: Do you have more info on this? Did they remove games or do you just mean inaccurate emulation? I remember visiting AlbinoBlackSheep as a kid, but not as much as other sites like Newgrounds. Stickpage is another flash site I liked that seems like it might go down soon.

Flickr: Flickr was less obvious to me since I still see pictures there and Photobucket in comparison created tons of dead links and had scam-tier pricing. Still, it's another example of shrinking with people moving their stuff to Google Photos or iCloud, or nowhere.

AlbinoBlackSheep had a lot of games made unplayable following the shut down of flash, including the famous game Run. A copy of the game still exists on CoolMathGames, but it is uncertain whether this is legitimate or a pirated copy. Flickr imposed policies where payment was necessary to host more photos and is going to delete older photos for accounts outside of compliance.

Is the issue is one of Ruffle emulation? Newgrounds has emulation issues too even though I wouldn't consider it dead or "hollowed out". Sorry for the semantics, I wasn't familiar with AlbinoBlackSheep. I remember there were flash games that required a central server to load content or restrict which sites were hosting, they would be unplayable now. But that will happen to any game with DRM that restrictive.

Forums are another thing I could add but they were dime a dozen so everyone has their own experiences with them.

No emulator is built in on AlbinoBlackSheep. The videos were saved because of MP4/MKV backups. Speaking of forums, have you ever heard of Gaia Online?

No, I posted on a few fan forums. I remember one forum that was part of the website for a single flash developer - practically the definition of obscure. I never posted there but I wonder how many interesting fan theories got lost when the Halo forums went down. If I added a section for forums maybe I could ask for submissions.

Were you still looking for Space Battleship Yamato 2? It's on kissanime right now, titled Star Blazers: The Comet Empire even though it's the subbed version.

Has anyone seen the English dub of Pingu? Might I ask where I can watch this, it seems unintentionally hilarious.

It is in the fictitious language of Penguinese. Here is a clip of the dub: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skcq0W1_J9U

Supposedly they were only released for English learners in Korea and (possibly) Japan, though it is possible that some were sold in North America and Europe.

Thank you! I have been planning for a while to add an article to the Monet and Jiha Moon piece so all of the pieces can have my thoughts attached to them. However, school has started so I will have a lot less time to do major updates to my site ;( So I hope so but school...

Also, I just remembered i complete the Art Storage Locker page just a couple days ago. That features an exhibition that happened in my city which featured some of my work. A really fun show that took place in a storage locker.

Does anyone think I should do a special page for 100 followers for reviewing Initial D, starting with First Stage through Final Stage of the anime, the New films, the live-action adaptation, the manga (including buying guide) and (possibly) one of the Arcade stage games? This would also be a setup for a review of MF Ghost next year too.

Am I the only person who did not see the appeal of "My Dress-up Darling"? I mainly say this because one of the foreign language titles turned me off (title was "Sexy Cosplay Doll").

I haven’t watched/read it yet, but according to the many reviews I’ve seen about it, the foreign titles as you said and constant fan service seem to be the only issues, and these are the only reasons why I probably won’t be giving it a watch

Watched it, it was nice but not something I'd rewatch and didn't leave an impact on me. A nice thing I can say about it is that it's an extremely rare anime where the relationship between the protagonists feels completely believable.

Marin falls in love with Gojo later, after they've spent ample time together. They have common interests. Gojo respects her and wants to do such a good job on her costume he studiously plays the H-game that Marin's cosplay comes from, and ends up really liking the story and being able to talk to her about it! Marin genuinely respects him for his unconventional passion, crafting traditional Japanese dolls.

These are believable people with a believable, mutual romance (not better than Toradora, though). By contrast most characters FOTM romance anime (to me at least) have like, 0 chemistry and the romance feels fake and arbitrary. Like author wish fulfillment, "hot girl repeatedly throws herself at awkward loser boy for no discernible reason".
