This wouldn't have even clashed with my theater trip, but I had fun at Tokyo Indies so it's hard to complain
BUT YOU KNOW

Excited both for the show itself, and the chance to spend 3 hours in an air conditioned theater when it’s otherwise 33C outside

The problem with bringing kabuki to the cinema screen is you have to make normal actors look like they know an art that takes decades to master
Editing, actual training, clever cinematography and emotion makes that a reality, and the story soars and delivers because of it

I don’t joke when I say JP film schedules can be suffering at times

It’s got upscaling artifacts in places. but clear attention to improving it to give a good overall look
I never felt any backgrounds looked bad, some you could tell they had lower res origins, but yea

Still love how the game encourages you to take it slow. Can’t entirely replicate Streetpass features, but you still have the town rebuilding minigame that takes real time to complete
Played over months so your town can build with you, by the end you could track your own journey with the characters

If you want a game to push your Switch 2 to the limit, this is not that game. The only reason it's exclusive are those minigames that more feel like an excuse
There's so much to the story and core adventure that you'll be tided over for some time

Sure, it's going to be way too familiar for fans of the original, but that didn't bother me!
Revisiting the game, it was like a warm blanket. The Brave and Default system remain so enticing, the characters so wonderful, it's such a great game, just playing it again is nice
Brilliant, then and now

This was a trip for a friend’s birthday and we all chipped in to pay and get them slapped by everyone, which was a lot of fun (and not just because I got to join in and slap them as well)
A fun time for us all to catch up, did karaoke after
(That video showcases some BAD hat hair tho ooft)

But honestly, to finally see this on a big screen, with other fans, was so wonderful. And warming
So glad I could

There’s power in how it uses the medium of theater as a vessel for anxiety and finding purpose
Unlike a lot of ‘idol films’ that promote talent but lack elsewhere, this was a reverse, adapting a novel from 2012 and making them the protagonists
And it worked! It did well and won awards! Deservedly!

I went for the poster and that too and it was first day but it was still a lot >.< I’d recommend that or at least waiting until you can go like first thing and make a beeline for it or smth
Problem is they only had it on one machine! I’m wondering if the popularity might make them put it in both

I learned Nintendo in the US are doing the poster too, but smaller, cropped to portrait, with the Nintendo logo in the corner
This is really clean and tho I’ve not had game posters up in a while for theater and music ones I may need to change that
Comparison of the two from online as not done mine

Think I mentioned about it, but they have the B2 poster too and I got that as well
