I have a lot of reviews to post but I've been too tired to check over them and format properly... So instead, I'll ramble on and on and on like this.
I want to do a site overhaul again. I think lately I feel stagnant, which isn't bad for me, because it's pushing me to my limits. I try new things, look at art, listen to music, anything to feel something new again. It's hard in the moment but I'll live. I am hoping to get new headphones soon, both my headsets are currently half-broken (one, the padding I've superglued countless times; the other, one headphone doesn't work.). I've listened to Lady on The Cusp yesterday; I didn't really care much for most of the songs on it, but Soporific Cell has been on loop constantly today. I think the melody and Kevin's voice work perfectly on that song; Reminiscent of Hissing Fauna, but bringing some newer influence as well. I think it just sounds perfect.
Recently, I started reading Yano-kun no Futsuu no Hibi. I came across it completely at random and it's not the type of story I was looking for now. Hell, I don't know the last time I read a straight up pure love story. However, it's captured my heart-- In a way similar to Gachikoi, but a lot less messy. It's just a sweet and funny story and the characters are all charming. I really like both the leads, Yano and Yoshida, along with the other side charas. I think the art is beautiful and it's just an easy and heartwarming read that actually gets my heart pumping because it's so cute...! And what good timing to come across it, because a movie is releasing later this month, and there's an anime on the way as well. I hope the manga translation catches up soon... There's only 25 translated chapters I could find right now... Ahhh It's so cute though...! Sososooo cute...!! It's what's really made me happy lately.
I guess before I leave this I should say something about my own projects. I'm lining the next 18782 chapter, it's going well. Game dev is going well as well... Lots of wells, huh... I'm doing some outfit planning for the game between draft rewrites. I'm also trying to make music, but anything upbeat is a struggle for me... I'm not a composer anyway by any definition, and the music for 18782 was a struggle for me. However, I can make slow and eerie music so much easier than happy and upbeat. I keep trying to listen to music to help, but nothing is sinking in... I'm not giving up though...! I can do it...!!!
