I don't really want to type an essay on my phone, but the biggest thing for me is how it subverts the Shonen genre for manga. I loved every bit of part 1. The bonus is that it's less than 100 chapters in length meaning it doesn't really drag on for too much.

Other than the nightmare that is OSRS, I'm replaying Red Dead Redemption 2 and have been enjoying it. I've also been meaning to do a new playthrough of Cyberpunk 2077 after the DLC launched, but just could not make myself open it, even if I did enjoy my first playthrough.

The game has some of the best feeling combat I've ever played, and I'm currently on NG+ for the Shura ending (final boss is once again kicking my butt).
Picking up OSRS again after getting burnt out from a specific quest (Mourning's End 2 can f*ck off). So that'll be fun.

Loved the game, and it was such a great experience overall starting from being nervous about every fight to finally being able to take on Genichiro at the end and slapping him about. It feels great.
I've also been playing Dave the Diver, which is a hilarious restaurant managing simulator disguised as a diving game, and have enjoyed it a lot so far.

Comment on Anime for someone who doesn't like (shonen) anime that much in ~anime

Psycho-Pass
Wikipedia describes it as a "cyberpunk psychological thriller". I really enjoyed it. It was a mature series, which asked thought provoking questions and put the characters in interesting situations. Highly recommend the first season (episodes 1 - 24), although I haven't watched any of the movies or later seasons.Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou
Otherwise known as Daily lives of High School Boys. I watched this when I was in high school and absolutely loved it. It's just a funny, dumb series about boys being boys. -

I have been taking cold medicine for the better part of last week (usually at least once per day) and whilst I feel fine after taking it, the headaches return once it wears off.
Fingers crossed!

I've just defeated the final boss and am on NG+. Easily up there for one of my favorite games, not because it's perfect or anything, but more so for the whole journey of stepping out into the Lands Between for the first time leading up to beating the Elden Beast. Overall, I've really enjoyed my time playing this game.

The first one is a Chinese manhwa about boys being boys. The second one is technically about diving.

The Fire Giant can go get bent. Hate that thing.

And I have enjoyed the game a lot. I'm just coming to the game after everyone played it last year, but either way it's probably the one game I've played more than others recently.

spoilers I guess
The scene that has stuck with me is the one where Tsunemori Akane's friend, Funahara Yuki, is killed by Makishima and Akane's just unable to do anything as she watches her friend dies.
Finally playing through Dark Souls 3 after playing a bunch of Elden Ring and defeating the final boss in Sekiro. I'm loving DS3 so far, after the initial hurdle of getting used to the game after coming from Elden Ring. Really looking forward to all the bosses to take down in this game.
