New account. I've gone by many names in the past. You may have known me previously as gil or egglend. Sorry for that confusion, I'll try to make sure this account stays up. I'll be more seriously sharing my thoughts/reviews about ~media~ I experience. Anyways here are my favs.

Recently finished ASOS in my ASOIAF reread and finished rewatching Evangelion (TV). Both are easy 10/10s. Eva in particular almost moved me to tears. Always loved it but the love has increased significantly.

Imagine seeing crueler things happening to literally everyone who lives outside of your island and not wanting to stop it.
Imagínate ver eso y después que tus compañeros tarados la perdonen porque está comiendo un pastel. Piek de la escritura isayama, de seguro un guionista de los Backyardigans tiene más coherencia

Also this criticism doesn’t make sense. No one really forgave her outside of the main group lol. And all their reasons for wanting to stop Eren are well developed.

Winds was actually nearly complete but then the Fromsoft team sent him their ideas for Elden Ring and George realized he had to lock in

These top 10 TV Show lists really looking dire if you don’t include anime

The dialogue has been weaker than I remembered. That is to say the best bits of it remain strong but I noticed a tendency to reiterate a point or have follow ups that hammer it home. A lot of the times I think back on ASOIAF dialogue the show deliveries come to mind
Replying to @chalantroPost
where’s your disappointment coming from during this reread?

And I’ve noticed they tend to trim the dialogue for the better. This is a bit of a powerscaler sounding complaint but TWOFK is very one sided. Some characters like Tyrion and Tywin are less interesting on reread

I do wonder if GRRM left the Elden Ring experience with any inspiration or learnings, or if it was just a one night stand for him

I’ve been rereading ASOIAF and unfortunately it is a little worse than I remember, though not by much. I am still a bit disappointed as I thought this reread would cement it as my untouchable favourite.

At the same time I’m rewatching Eva which is a bit better than I remember which is leading to me considering the two at equal quality. Which is not something I would’ve considered a year ago.

Code Geass references in a random gaming parody song in 2026? 🥹
good morning gamers ^_^

Ironically as someone who loves both I’d say something ASOIAF lacks is a character (or themes) in the same transcendent tier as Eren. GRRM is skilled in writing so many three dimensional realized and interesting characters who interact with each other in cool ways.
GRRM can write Mikasa but Isayama can't even dream of writing Sansa, Daenerys or Catelyn

Same goes for the themes. All very well presented and effectively woven into the story. But is there really anything in there that will make the audience reflect on themselves?

Original post was about female characters. So sure, if you believe there’s a strong barrier there in capability of writing then maybe Isayama can’t write female characters as good as GRRM. But in sheer writing ability I don’t think the gap in character writing exists.

Game looks great. I don’t care much for the armour above the tunic design wise. I do think it adds too much of a fantastical element that seems ajar to the original look. And if they continue to a Majora’s Mask remake with the same style it will feel very jarring.
