Genkai Totsuki Monster Monpiece – First Impressions – A Cute and Fanservicy Monster Girl Trading Card Game
For a while now, there has been a good amount of criticism surrounding Idea Factory/Compile Heart games. They have a bad reputation of having overly complicated gameplay, needless grinding among other things. While the first Neptunia game had a lot of bugs, at least I heard that they improved the gameplay in the sequels. Now with the Playstation Vita, I think they kind of learned their lesson with Genkai Totsuki Monster Monpiece (限界凸騎モンスターモンピース, lit: Unlikely Knight: Monster Monpiece), which sold over 50,000 in retail and download. With that, I would like to share some experiences of playing it after getting through the first Chapter and a part of the next one. (Image Source)

Chikorita Cast – Episode 3 – Google killed Google Reader! How dare they!
Sadly, the black smoke has come. Google decided to say “Sayanora” to Google Reader, a web application that allows people to subscribe and read people’s blogs through RSS feeds in one place. I think the decision is very idiotic and just will make people hate Google more, especially the crap they pulled with Google Images taking 60-80% of the traffic away from blogger’s websites.
Because I felt strongly about this issue, I decided to make another video podcast showing people how to use other applications to follow Anime Blogs. These solutions are Wordpess.com Reader, Feedly, Vienna (for Mac users) and RSS Bandit (for Windows users). I didn’t mention other clients since they cost money, but if you are using Reeder, they plan to make it Google Reader independent in the next update, so check out for that. So enjoy and feel free suggest other topics I should focus on in future podcasts. (Image Source)

Let’s Play Atelier Meruru – Episode 7 and 8
This is probably the longest episodes I uploaded pretty recently as I usually cut a lot of the requests and bring it down to 50-55 minutes. However, I left some battles in since I want to show off what young Rorona can do. Apparently, she becomes pretty powerful once you give her the most powerful weapon. As you see in the video, her attacks kind of make her look like a magical girl.
As for Episode 9 and 10, I’m rerecording the commentary, so you may notice a noticeable quality increase in the next two episodes. After I finish uploading those episodes, hopefully Spring Break will come so I can record more. Aside from that, the Playstation Vita version of this game releases in about three weeks, so I will be playing that once I beat Tales of Hearts R. (Image Source)

Chikorita Cast – Episode 2 – State of the AniBlogosphere (AniBlog Tourney Edition)
It has been a while since I did a podcast, but it’s finally alive, for now at least. Since I don’t feel like writing about this subject in written form again, I’m doing it in video podcast form. Also, I got a new microphone, which is another reason I want to record one. However, I’m not perfect because I don’t make podcasts on a frequent basis.
In this episode, I will analyze some data I gathered about the state of blogging in the Aniblogosphere. The contains all the blogs participated in the first round with a few dead ones in the second round. So enjoy and feel free suggest other topics I should focus on in future podcasts.
Also, all the data that I compiled is here in PDF form. (Image Source)
