I keep saying I'm going to finish The Great Ace Attorney and putting it off. Watched all of Beastars yesterday for the first time since Team Four Star did a thing about it and wanted to go in knowing what they were riffing on.

But now that Deltarune Chapter 2 is out Friday I really need to finish it. I am so excited for more Toby Fox.

Oh, and Beastars was entertaining even if it was kind of a mess, especially the almost comical Season 2 finale. Considering the main romance is supposed to be Haru and Legoshi, it's wild how little they're on screen together and how much Legoshi fawns over Louis along with the animation team clearly loving those moments. The wagging tail rooftop scene showed significantly more chemistry with those two than any with Haru, but that's why I get annoyed with most media. Coded friendships get exhausting after a while.

oh man, I been seeing all different kinds of posts on twitter about delterune 2 and im excited to see someone play it on youtube. Now, I seen the first bit of beastars on netflixs. was the second seasons good to? More of something to put on or enjoyed every moment kind or ordeal?

I liked it for the most part. Especially Legoshi's alternate look for part of the season lol. Its message, while making sense, is just kind of nonsensical by the end, and Haru's role is seriously downgraded. There's honestly a lot of weird character stuff, but if you just want something moody and fun, it'll do the job.

Of course Dirk is finally streaming the 0.5 update tonight. That can wait, cue, finish ace attorney, cue. Goddamnit, Dirk.

Fuck it, I've been watching the stream. In the immortal words of Björk:

Sue me, sue me, sue me all you want. It's so unfair. The sins of the fathers. They just fucked it all up.

Is Deltarune chapter 2 the last one?
I started the demo and kinda lost interest halfway through, I might give it another chance when the full game is released. I enjoyed undertale a lot but probably not to the degree that a lot of people online did so I don't mind the wait.

I didn't care much for season 1 of Beastars, but I heard it gets batshit crazy the more it goes on so that might be interesting. I did see the opening for season 2 and it's really fucking catchy, so it has that going for it at least

It hasn't been stated if it's the end or not. I think it'll depend on if it's paid and then if it's only Chapter 2. Toby Fox had to hire a small team due to issues with his wrist so it's all very unclear how far along it is. Honestly, I'd probably wait too if I didn't have friends who I know are going to be talking about it. Same thing happened with Final Fantasy 7 Remake. Gotta jump on that while I can avoid spoilers.

As for Beastars, well, it's no Odd Taxi, that's for sure. It really only gets batshit for the season 2 finale and that's because the actions of characters feel so extremely stupid and the visuals triple that feeling, like Dragon Ball Z levels of visual transformation which is... a choice lmao. The opening and closing tracks are indeed really fucking good, but if you weren't a fan of Season 1, I don't know if it's worth sitting through Season 2 and its melodrama. It's very much more of the same except they finally remember their classmate was murdered back in episode 1.

the beastars season 2 ending felt very much rushed, along with some jumps in logic that are hard to keep pace with such as "Haru: I hate that you are ignoring me -> Legoshi: Then the only solution is to get married". the manga has still 2 more story arcs, i suppose season 2 is an akward interlude, but it has some good moments like Legoshi's first pick for a disguise. Of course it's no OddTaxi, but we can't ask that kind of quality for every work, we will run out of stories.
