Animation Check-in: She-Ra and the Princesses of Power S4E12-13 - S5E1-2



4x11:

Kyle protecting Lonnie from Catra - he's gotten braver. :')

And Glimmer wants to force Adora to be this weapon, would she change her mind if she saw how much Adora doesn't want it?

Aww Entrapta's smile and blush. I hope it sticks this time, I want to see her happy with research and friends.

Oop, Double Trouble spilled the beans about Entrapta. Oh damn, Hordak's crying.

Did I know Double Trouble and Glimmer were working together now?



4x12:

Lmao at Scorpia's obliviousness. "I don't remember it looking like this, but it has been a while since I was here."

And Kyle's group leaving. Hope they'll be okay.

Welp, Scorpia connected to her crystal.

So Light Hope is the one who brought Adora there, not Hordak?!

Well Adora managed to stop the weapon but now Horde Prime is here.



5x1:

I feel like the princesses should've lost their power but what do I know.

Aww Swift Wind and Scorpia getting along, I'm happy for them. :')

Can't Horde Prime just look into Catra's memory to learn about the weapon?

Just what are those visions Adora is having??



5x2:

Even with being so exhausted, it's a miracle Adora can sleep through Entrapta's shenanigans. I wonder what fandom's feelings on Entrapta are? (I thought this episode did a good job showing her different sides.)

It's too sad to think of all the destroyed civilizations thanks to Horde Prime. T_T

I think if Mermista wants Entrapta to understand her than she needs to at least stop calling her passions by derogative names...

Aww Swift Wind and Adora saying goodbye. And Micah staying behind but saying 'see you soon baby girl'. 😭

Both Catra and Glimmer's only comfort is their enemy and it's complicated by each of their hangups. 😟 But for a moment, they comfort each other the best they can through the prison panel...

BLush - "Dive deep into the world of BL dramas with thought-provoking video essays, behind-the-scenes industry insights, and engaging breakdowns of your favorite series" as well as updates and talk about pairings. She's fun and I like her personality. She's probably my favorite of the...3? I follow covering BL dramas.

"If only all stories in the villainess genre had this kinda energy." - I love this so much I need more. Link to where this comic came from in comments btw.

greenteadreams's fanfic recs - tags list here. This is an old LJ so older fandoms.

#wait sentinel aus are based on an actual show??? - I knew about The Sentinel because of my mom watching it. My question is, does the Japanese guideverse come from The Sentinel too? I assume it's based on the very basic concept since I doubt they're all familiar with The Sentinel itself. Now that I think about it I think saw a guideverse guide made by a pixiv user or something, I need to find it.

Hunter x Hunter Radio / Drama CD / songs / misc. translations - I used to read these all the time when I was on LJ, so nostalgic! I believe all these things/translations are before the new anime came, the stories are a lot of fun!

I Have Once Again Done This To Myself.

I really did think I wouldn't make another website. I swear. I swear I thought I'd stop at three.

Welcome to Hope's Peak Academy, my Danganronpa website! This is probably my most ambitious website project so far; I've made separate sections for each of the three main Danganronpa games, plus a couple of smaller sections for Fanganronpa projects I've enjoyed.

Please enjoy all of my Danganronpa rambling! Well, not technically all of my Danganronpa rambling; there's more rambling to come. But there's a lot to explore here already, so I think it's time to launch this place!

(Heads-up for anyone who's curious but unfamiliar with Danganronpa: these are murder mystery games, and some of the pages include illustrated murder scenes. They're not realistic - they're in an anime style and the blood is hot pink - but I imagine some of you might not want to stumble across them unawares!)

Spy X Family voice actor temporarily steps down

Dani Chambers who voices Becky Blackbell (One of my favorite characters in the series,) is taking time off voice acting for voice therapy as stated on a post she made on X:

"This isn't permanent but when my voice comes back I can pop back in," Chambers said. "I'm currently in voice therapy to work on getting back to my normal range. But for now, Becky (and other baby voices) will be voice matched."

The announcement came hours before Season 3 of Spy X Family premiered on Crunchyroll.

Meanwhile, Chambers will still be providing her vocal talents to other characters in the show. Alongside voicing Becky Blackbell in Spy x Family, Chambers has also been in the English dubs of Solo Leveling, Frieren: Beyond Journey's End, and several video games, including Pokemon Masters and Genshin Impact. - gamesradar

Title: one more promise I couldn't keep
Fandom: Fire Emblem Awakening
Rating: PG
Prompt: 21 - "You Promised."
Pairing/Characters: Male Robin/Sumia, Cynthia, Morgan
Warnings: Character death

Summary: The final battle approaches, and Sumia knows better than to expect a perfect ending.

But even knowing going in doesn't make the outcome hurt any less.


It's a difficult enough choice without her and the girls constantly fretting. )

"All Broken" - The Hundred Line, Nozomi-centric

This was written for Angstober 2025 using prompt 21, "You Promised".

Title: All Broken
Fandom: The Hundred Line
Characters: Nozomi, Takumi, mentions of the rest of the Second-to-Last kids
Rating: PG-13 (referenced canonical character death, mention of mummified corpses, a lot of grief on Nozomi's part)
Summary: Nozomi's heart breaks upon seeing that Takumi hasn't kept his promise to her about her friends' safety, and so does her ability to trust him. Set during the early part of the Retsnom route.

Needless to say, this contains spoilers for the early part of the Retsnom route and by extension the first playthrough.

October Manga TBR 2

Used my manga TBR boardgame.

I finished 4/4 on my last board, it went mostly okay. In a 'let's just see what happens' mood for this one lol

Avatar:

Natsume
Skill: Re-draw prompt once


Roll #1:

An 11. Prompt: gender bender. I usually chose Ame Nochi Hare for this prompt but I'm reluctant... I'll pick a oneshot from my to read list: A Story About a Boy Scouted to Be a Model.

Roll #2:

A 6 aand the trap tile. I think I've become desensitized to it lol. Went back, re-rolled, got a 3. Prompt: enemies to lovers, interesting. Huh, why is Shugo Chara! tagged that way? I thought I read that Ikuto isn't endgame. Oh well, I'm taking it!

Roll #3:

Another 3, generate from CR tile, hoo boy. I spent way too long on this one, it was 820 and that was one in a part of series that I apparently haven't written about before though I thought I did so I searched around... Whatever, this is one of those 'completionst' moments for me and not necessarily 'the series is good': Fujisaki Kou's 'Kemono' series. I've read two parts of them but will be rereading.

Roll #4:

A 6, prompt: geikomi. The oneshot Akuma no Kare.

Roll #5:

A 9, prompt: collection of stories/anthology. I don't know what happened here but it says I stopped at 6/7 for 'Renai Nenrei' so I guess I'll reread/finish it??
Roll #6:

An 11 and the end. The physical BL manga this time is Alcohol, Shirt and Kiss. I rated it low even the first time I read it so this should be interesting...

I also moved a bunch of stuff back to the to-read list since I'll need to reread them anyway (waited too long).

Most looking forward to: Renai Ninrei, since it's Naono Bohra?
Least looking forward to: Alcohol, Shirt & Kiss

Webnovel Check-in: "Trash of the Count’s Family" v7-8 ch. 31-38



"Trash of the Count's Family"

[NovelUpdates Page]

Chapter 31:

The two pairs of golden pupils of the kittens were turned toward Cale, and they both quickly headed to his leg and started to rub their faces at his leg.

‘Why are they like this?’

Cale didn’t like how chummy they were being, and moved his leg slightly to the side.


Bruh. You may not be the most physically affectionate with them but from their POV you're their savior and kind master.

The two of them protected Lock like he was family.

Lock, Rosalyn and Choi Han are so sweet together. 😭 Can't wait to see this scene in the webtoon!

Chapter 32: It's sad that the Wolf Tribe couldn't be saved. :/ What's going to happen to the 10 surviving children??

Chapter 33: In this human-centric world, Choi Han’s position to embrace both humans and non-humans makes him start to change. The start of that is the Whale Tribe.

...Hasn't that already started to happen since he met On, Hong, Raon and Lock??

It's really funny that Cale thinks he can control so much. Maybe if he about-faced and marched home and said to leave him alone it would work, but he doesn't want war or the deaths, so as long as the group needs him/his knowledge, he'll be with them. And they won't let him leave so easily.

It was interesting to see Cale thinking of telling Choi Han about him transmigrating. And it will be interesting to see what the mysterious organization is in the end since not even he knows. Choi Han's concern about Cale dying above caring if Cale was going to tell the truth or not!

Chapter 34: What is Ron off doing?

Chapter 35: Well that whole scene with Eric etc was weird but at least Cale had an excuse not to act like a bastard.


Chapter 36:

Cale watched his entire body turn invisible before looking up to the ceiling and starting to speak.
“Dragons are great and mighty.”
“You are right. I am great and mighty.”
The invisible Black Dragon responded to Cale. Choi Han could see Cale’s evil smirk quickly appear before disappearing. Choi Han realized how Cale was controlling the dragon and he started to speak as well.
“Wow, dragons are great and mighty.”
Once Choi Han said that, he turned invisible as well, and they could leave the residence without any worries.


That was great. 😂

The line about not needing Raon's help after he gets the Sound of Wind made me sad, helping Cale etc is giving the dragon control back, I don't want him to feel like he's not needed...

Chapter 37: Cale agreed to help Lock with his revenge if he could think of something to give Cale in return.

Chapter 38: Eric is unintentionally funny, poor boy.

Damn, I didn't think about Raon having to be in the same room as the one who leashed and tortured him...

The Black Dragon was planning on ripping them into shreds so that they turned into fine particles of dust.

I look forward to that day too Raon.

Taylor and Cage are back!

Chapter 39: The prince about Cale: "I feel like your free spirit makes your soul very pure.” Ahahaha. This whole scene of Cale meeting the prince for the first time is amazing and bonkers. Ughhh I don't want to stop here but another volume would definitely be too long. 😣 I'll just choose it for my next challenge!

AWS outage

DW is seeing some issues due to today's Amazon outage. For right now it looks like the site is loading, but it may be slow. Some of our processes like notifications and journal search don't appear to be running and can't be started due to rate limiting or capacity issues. DW could go down later if Amazon isn't able to improve things soon, but our services should return to normal when Amazon has cleared up the outage.

Edit: all services are running as of 16:12 CDT, but there is definitely still a backlog of notifications to get through.

Edit 2: and at 18:20 CDT everything's been running normally for about the last hour.
