The Great Star Wars Rewatch Is (Almost) at an End | Animezingly Baka

With a week full of known and unknown hurdles, not much time and space was left for much of anything. The one thing to come out of the aftermath that concerns you, though, is the transition to a new release schedule for all podcasts. Now, Animezingly Baka will be releasing on Mondays (aniMonday), so I can finally make that dumb joke again. With that out of the way, this transitional episode is kind of all over the place with more Star Wars, more seasonal anime, and that's about it. Anyway and as always, thank you for watching or listening, I hope you enjoy this here episode, and I hope you have a wonderful wonderful rest of your day. (And if you haven't already, or are a listener and not a watcher, please like, subscribe, hit the bell, and all that jazz; it may not seem like much, but it goes a long way in helping support the show and site in general. I would appreciate it greatly.)

KartRider: Drift Was Fine, but Fine Wasn't Enough to Keep It Alive | The Last Call

For a game with drift in the title, the drifting in KartRider: Drift felt terrible. That could be excused if everything else was good to great, but that wasn't the case. Sure, there's a lot of content there, from a large cast of drivers to a decent selection of tracks, but none of that mattered when the game wasn't fun to play, and when you're in a crowded genre full of some very big hitters, you need to be more than fine to stand out. Unfortunately for KartRider: Drift, that never happened. Now KartRider: Drift is dead in all forms except on PC in Korea and Taiwan, so let's toast to it one last time in this here episode of The Last Call.

Anyway, that's it and that's all folks. You can get an even more in-depth discussion by listening to the podcast and, if you're feeling extra generous, you can become a patron to show your support for the site, the podcasts, the streaming, the videos, the art, and everything in between--and you'll get a few nice bonuses while you're at it. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to consume any of the content I make and thank you for being a fan. I can't begin to express how much I appreciate each and every one of you. Cheers.

Vigilantes Breathes New Life Into My Hero Academia | Animezingly Baka

After an incredibly long and depressing false start--I "recorded" almost an entire episode before I realized I wasn't actually recording anything--this episode starts with even more Star Wars--this time focusing on Star Wars: Resistance--before getting to what anime I've been watching with My Hero Academia: Vigilantes, Witch Watch, Wind Breaker, One Piece, and more. Anyway and as always, thank you for watching or listening, I hope you enjoy this here episode, and I hope you have a wonderful wonderful rest of your day.

Road Redemption Is the Closest Thing to Road Rash Since...Road Rash | Attack the Backlog

This was a surprise. Early this year I wasn't sure what to play and wasn't quite ready for anything too big, so I perused my various libraries and picked out a few games that caught my eye. Road Redemption was one of those games. As someone who grew up with Road Rash and loved every iteration of it up to and including Road Rash 3D, any game that looks like Road Rash is going to get my attention. That said, I wasn't expecting much from Road Redemption based on the visuals, but as soon as I started playing, I fell in love. It may not be the prettiest game out there and it's rough around the edges, but it's great where it counts: it's just a lot of fun to play.

Divine Knockout (DKO) Was Better Than Super Smash Bros. | The Last Call

I know the title of this episode will rub many the wrong way, but I sincerely mean it. Super Smash Bros. (and every copy) has never worked for me. Part of that could be due to my (almost) always playing them alone, but then I played Divine Knockout (DKO) mostly alone, so I can't say that's the reason, but whether playing alone or playing with others, I've never had fun with a Super Smash Bros. game. I appreciate the hell out of what those games are doing and adore their soundtracks, but the act of playing them is something I've never enjoyed. So what makes DKO so different? 3D. The transition from playing on a 2D plane to playing on a 3D plane is all it took to make a platform fighter go from meh to the best in my book. It's a shame DKO is now dead, but I'm glad I got the chance to play it before it died--I genuinely feel bad for all of you who'll never get the chance--and can only hope someone tries making another 3D platform fighter in the future.

Why Solo Leveling Will Never Be a 10/10 (And That's Okay) | Animezingly Baka

In this second attempt at a return for Animezingly Baka, things are a little different. Now, instead of being all about anime, it's all about anime...and movies, tv shows, comics, manga, books, and anything else not video game-related--that's for The Pixelated Sausage Show. With that out of the way, this (technically third) first episode starts with a lot of Star Wars talk and ends with a lot of anime talk, including the reveal of my favorite Star Wars character, what shook me in the latest episode of The Apothecary Diaries, and why Solo Leveling is great, but will never be one of the greatest. Anyway and as always, thank you for watching or listening, I hope you enjoy this here episode, and I hope you have a wonderful wonderful rest of your day.
