reading-wise, i'm on volume 5 of The Apothecary Diaries light novels. i'm so happy to be living in the timeline where we get translations; i remember watching Read or Die *sigh* 20 years ago and wishing for the books.
tv-wise, Game Changer is back and the most recent episode, Deja Vu, was a joy to watch, especially because we were figuring it out along with the contestants. it was partly designed by the guy who did Escape the Greenroom last season. Dropout might be my most loved subscription these days
and tonight we remembered that we never finished Spy x Family. so we're in the midst of the cruise arc and after a long stretch of episodes that lost our interest it's back to serving the premise i watch the show for (Mr & Mrs Smith/fake dating/found family + competence porn and cuteness)
ongoing, Delicious in Dungeon and The Bad Batch. (i kind of watch The Bad Batch from behind the sofa because i don't want deaths, i know they do deaths, and there are very few characters we've seen in this show that we know survive into the Rebellion era.)
what did you recently finish?
OMG The Apothecary Diaries (no links, so many spoilers), very excited they've been renewed for a second season. once i got over the way the characters turn into chibi caricatures when they have strong emotions, i fell in love with the mystery of the week and the ongoing court intrigue and it's often funny. (seriously the character design is so beautiful and then suddenly it's a parody of itself.) while entirely unlike Nirvana in Fire, it satisfies some of my desire for more things like Nirvana in Fire.
what will you consume next?
more Spy x Family.
