The Professional Gamer - March 16, 2018

We are now less than a week out from Colorado Anime Fest, as Chris pointed out earlier this week. Crystal will have a table and be selling lots of great art work, which I will encourage all attendees to check out. Meanwhile, I've spent most of my weeknights watching anime that was formerly secured behind the Anime Strike paywall. Apart from that, I've spent a lot of time working in my garden, getting ready for the growing season. But, I'm sure most of you aren't super interested in yard chores. Let's talk about anime instead.

Hello and welcome to another week of travel for me, with only a minor amount of geeky activity. Also, I spent most of last weekend trying to get over a serious cold.

Well, I pretty much limited myself to a few minutes of video gaming on the weekend, but haven't had a chance to catch up on the seasonal anime for this week.

This has been the week of watching ReCreators. I'm almost finished with the series (only 2 episodes left), and I think we should talk about it a bit. If you are unfamiliar with the series, the main premise is that characters from various popular media (anime, manga, and video games primarily) are pulled into our world by another character who has nefarious motives. Although you won't find a point by point summary, I'm going to talk candidly about the plot below the fold, so if you want to enjoy the series with fresh eyes, now is the time to steer away.

This has been a busy week. Meetings on Tuesday and Thursday nights, and homework that I had to complete on Wednesday night. Amidst all that, I was able to find some time to enjoy myself this week as well. Not much time for video games other than getting a bit obsessed about the Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp event. Gotta get all the gothic gear! But that's not what you came here to hear about. Instead, lets talk about some anime.

Hello and Happy Groundhog Day! Hopefully, no one got stuck in a permanent time loop, with a large rodent as their only companion. By good fortune, I have not. Instead, I am here to talk with you about my geeky week. This week has largely been about a certain mobile game, though I did try to spend some time watching anime as well. Let's get to it!
