driving myself insane watching all the seasonal anime (fall 2020) @Tyranno

Tyranno This is a supplemental video, just going through my thoughts of the first episode of every anime that aired in the Fall 2020 season. This material is all UNSCRIPTED, so expect jank. Because I didn't write this out beforehand, we're gonna have to deal with YouTube's automatic captions - and if those don't appear and you need them, uh, let me know.

Favorite Media of 2020

Tyranno 2021-01-22 | 2020 sucked, but at least we got some good media out of it?

I’ve got a yearly channel tradition which, with the upload of this video, I’ve broken in two ways. At the end of every year, I usually upload a video, or series of videos, about my favorite anime I watched that year, regardless of whether that anime was from that year or not. In 2020, however, my consumption of Japanese cartoons slowed down, and much of what I did watch made its way into video form already, one way or the other. So just following that tradition would have led, I feel, to a very lackluster video. For reference, all I’d have to discuss is Weathering with You, Tokyo Godfathers, Aria the Animation, and, uh… I guess I could've dragged Danganronpa 3 through the dirt? I dunno. Anyway, since I can’t just do the same old thing this year, I figured instead I’d do something a bit more commonplace: running through a batch of my favorite media in general, and this time all actually from the same year! Or at least, made widely available therein. So that's what I did!

The Nuzlocke Experience | A Narrative Essay

Tyranno 2020-09-30 | The Nuzlocke run: a famous fan-made ruleset to make your Pokémon playthrough much more harrowing. Up until now, I've mostly enjoyed these just as an outside observer, and I got to wondering: what's the appeal of this thing, anyhow? In order to find the answer to that question, I committed to playing through a Nuzlocke run of my own. This is that story.
