Berserk really starts to hit its stride in this third volume. We finally confirm that the story being told so far is actually somewhere in the middle - or near the end - of the plot, and we get some nice scenes showing Guts' origin story.
What an absolutely fun, funny, and wildly imaginative movie. Made with stop-motion and weird little animal figures, Fantastic Mr. Fox is an excellent animated film.
Grave of the Fireflies is an unrelenting, beautiful portrayal of the horrors of war and a child's loss of innocence, and is a huge tonal shift from my only other Studio Ghibli experience, My Neighbor Totoro.
Grindstone is a neat match 3 game with a cool chaining mechanics. It's simple level-based fun, sort of like Candy Crush with some very light RPG mechanics.
My name's Mike, and this is the Lore Depository - my spot online where I can write out my thoughts on games, books, tech, movies, and anything else I find interesting.
My biggest project is my Game Library Project. I have a ton of games collected throughout the years, and have barely played any of them. Check out the linked post to learn more about the project, and click here to be taken to the category page where you can see all my posts for the project.
Another project I'm working on is my Pokemon Living Dex Challenge, where I try to obtain one of each available Pokemon and transfer them into Pokemon Home.
Yet another project I'm working on is my Old School RuneScape "Completionist" Quest, where I'm attempting to max out all skills and see everything the game has to offer as a completely new player.
