I got a wide conglomerate of adorable merchandise now available in my ACGGoods store!
The amount of followers I have now while typing this!
Basically my store sells multifandom merch that appeals to fans who love a more cuter and charming aesthetic to fictional characters, such as Mabel Pines and Momo Ayase!
Mabel Pines Acrylic Charm now available!
I am so excited to introduce everyone my products and I hope they love them too! My artwork makes great gifts for friends and family for any occasion, mostly birthdays! 💕 I have no sales currently but running a store with little to no SEO takes time to process customer growth! All my products are cheaper too!
You can also get a $3.00 off discount when you purchase orders over $30.00! Feel free to stop by my store and get an item!
Never have I ever been excited for a video game release ever since Deltarune Chapter 3-4! Tomodachi Life, for anybody who’s unfamiliar with the game, is a Nintendo game that’s much like the Sims, except they use proper english and more chaotic. That pretty much sums up the whole game. Sometimes really weird shit happens, such as the dream sequences. This one takes the cake, or in this case, the Virtual Boy!
My brain in a nutshell
So anyways, while the game can have its moments, it is still a nonetheless charming little game, with the Mii’s chipper robotic voices and quirky visuals elevating the gameplay! But however, the game DOES have its issues regarding gameplay. The biggest problem in my opinion (and pretty much every Tomodachi Life fan’s) is the lack of LGBTQ+ representation. A lot of video games nowadays have a lot of solid queer rep, such as Celeste, where the main character is a trans woman! And also in the Sims, you can have gay couples, nonbinary people, and even polyamorous relationships, making the game feel more relatable to players with similar identities!
And another big issue players have with the game itself is the lack of diversity regarding the Mii’s interactions, making the gameplay more boring and losing its whimsical nature. Basically, the Mii’s would just ask for requests such as wanting to befriend someone or needing a hat (sorry Poofesure), and it gets exhausting pretty quickly. If you want a game where interactions are optional and willing to spice up your life, Tomodachi Life will not leave a positive mark. You just have to continuously wait for something to happen, such as Mii’s falling in love and all that shit.
But luckily, much to many fan’s shock, Tomodachi Life: Living The Dream fixed a lot of issues they had with the original game! You can now add same-sex/nonbinary couples in the new game! This is a massive step up to the LGBTQ+ and Gaming community, as everyone gets to dream up the ships and make them come true here! I cannot wait to add Usagi x Rei to the game hehe!
Another benefit the new game has is that the customizations are more varied than the previous installment, now you get to make your Mii look more like your favorite anime/video game/etc. character! There are so many wacky features, such as adding hair dye to your Mii’s without relying on color spray (seriously, this mechanic sucks ass!), and you can change eye color to many colors and make your Mii’s pop out! You can even make your Mii look like a teddy bear!
Hor hor hor I’m Freddy Fazbear
You can pretty much do whatever the hell you want to do, and you can even make your Mii’s interact rather than just waiting them to mention they want to be friends with another Mii, making the experience a lot more vibrant! Speaking of vibrance, the visuals are a lot more cleaner and gorgeous, because unlike the ugly choppy Mii’s from the original, they look a lot more cuter and more friendlier now! And you can make custom clothes, I remember hearing in the trailer! Basically drawing some designs and adding them onto your Mii’s!
And when you make your Mii’s happy, you can make them gain warm fuzzies, which is a super cute mechanic, and add them to a wishing fountain, which can add cool features such as more animations for Mii’s, or cool gifts, or anything!
So yeah, basically my thoughts on this game is that it looks super wholesome and silly and I cannot wait to play the game! I’m going to do some batshit insane things to my Miis and make everyone fall in love with each other! Hahahaha! My fan fiction era has never changed!
Since I review fandoms for a living, I also sell fandom merch, with artwork designed by me! A lot of you people might be questioning me, “why bother running a store?” And let me answer to you:
Well, selling art online makes me happy and is a good way to make income in my opinion! And I love fanart specifically! The best part about ACGGoods is that you can sell fanart without getting assaulted by the copyright police! It’s just fantastic! And another benefit is that unlike many selling websites, ACGGoods rely on man-made artwork instead of AI! Because AI sucks ass! Fuck that stupid Fruit Love Island bullshit I often see on the internet!
So how ACGGoods works is that you have to apply to own a store, kind of like McDonald’s. But the best part is unlike McDonald’s, you don’t have to go to an anxiety-riddled interview with an intimidating manager looming above you. ACGGoods will send you an email that shows the special code after you apply, which takes about 24ish hours.
After you get the code, you’re able to run a store! You also have to connect your WooAcry account to your ACGGoods store. And WooAcry is a lot like Redbubble, but instead of shirts and mugs, you actually can sell a variety of merch you would often find at a convention! It is so fucking cool! You can design products such as stickers by inserting files, and it is so easy! For example, when customizing a keychain, you have a dieline and get a custom clasp! There are a wide variety of clasp shapes and colors, with my favorite being the heart!
So many cute colors!
I’m in 2 days away with running my store and I still got no sales, and by the time I’m typing this I only have 3 followers. But all in all, I’m super happy with ACGGoods because unlike Etsy, where you have to pay like a college salary of hideous fees, ACGGoods handles all the stuff for you and you don’t have to worry about delivering, which is always a plus!
And I love how there is a supporting artist community on ACGGoods! There are so many wonderful people on the ACGGoods’ Discord server, and they are very helpful whenever you get stuck with your store and running it!
However, one negative aspect I have with ACGGoods is that it has extremely low SEO, which makes it harder for your store to be seen and have to rely on a lot of annoying advertising on social media! Darn! But luckily, advertising is not as hard as it seems.
But overall, ACGGoods is such a great website for many reasons, one being that you can sell artwork without relying on paying shipping fees! I will post my shop link underneath this text!
The Amazing Digital Circus is one of the greatest indie shows of all time, to the point where their creator, Gooseworx (the girlboss herself), is incredibly overwhelmed with their success!
It’s kind of like how Stephen Hillenberg (creator of SpongeBob SquarePants) is annoyed with SpongeBob merchandise everywhere he goes to the point where he created a movie as a sort of finale to the show (until Nickelodeon notices how incredibly popular the brand is, to the point where they keep milking up SpongeBob’s titties).
So I decided to make a list of Digital Circus characters based on how much I want to hang out with/be sociable with! This will just be my dumbass opinion, aight? Let’s get this started!
Pomni
I love Pomni so much ❤️
It would make sense for me to start off with the anxiety-riddled main character herself, Pomni! Pomni is probably the sweetest of the TADC cast, where she adjusted to the circus rather quickly in 3 episodes and doesn’t have the same emotional baggage as Ragatha. She’d the emotional support Jester, and honestly she seems like a great person to get along with. I like the scene where she talks to Gangle if Spudsy’s is not making her happy. And she even offers to close the restaurant for her!
(JesterRibbon my beloved don’t @ me)
Pomni is a complete saint and she cares for everyone in the circus, thanks to Daddy Kinger himself! She may be flawed, as shown when she unintentionally abandoned Ragatha 2 times due to being understandably obsessed with the exit, but she is shown to feel extreme remorse as in the scene where she looks down in guilt as Ragatha looks away from her in the first episode.
Because of these qualities, I give Pomni a 9.5/10 for friend potential!
Jax
Poor Jax, and the FunnyBunny shippers.
Jax is the type of guy who would tell Olaf that he will become a puddle during his “Summer Song”.
Jax is rarely a good person to be near with, and as from I’ve seen, there’s a lot of fangirls writing down fanfics where they downplay Jax’s narcissistic personality traits and turn him into an angsty redeemable bad boy. But in the series, he gets better, but not in the way you’d expect. He becomes more emotionally depleted, starting off with Episode 4 aka “Fast Food Masquerade”, and figuratively stops masking himself out of sheer boredom from working in a real-time job. He even uses acts of kindness towards Pomni, such as checking up on her.
Speaking of, he does this to other characters by the first episode, where he checks up on their room, including Kaufmo’s (who unfortunately abstracted).
By episode 5, he even befriends Pomni and even makes her laugh with his crazy antics at one point. (FunnyBunny?) By episode 6, Jax has a massive crash out moment, where he hates being vulnerable and literally pushes Pomni away. He decides to use his unhealthy coping mechanisms again and tells Pomni to leave him alone and that he would move on and forget about her after she abstracts. This understandably pisses off Pomni, and she gets into a raging fist fight with Jax, who doesn’t reciprocate the fighting. This shows that Jax does secretly care about Pomni, but he prefers to hide away in order to avoid abstraction.
Jax has a lot of issues, and because of these, I’ll give him a 4/10.
Ragatha
I love Ragatha, and she really cares about everyone, but this is mostly a coping mechanism on her part, which makes it hard to emphasize with her as she is seen as the bright optimist who rarely shows her true feelings.
In episode 5, Ragatha tells everyone about her abusive mother and how she hates all her manipulations and guilt-tripping. She is terrified of her mother and acts like a people pleaser to make them happy. This is obviously unhealthy, and she makes a terrible therapist because of these issues. In episode 8, Ragatha’s fear of her mother is shown again, with a shadowy, ominous figure that looks like a scary version of her darting knives at her, which could represent the trauma she inflicts on Ragatha.
Poor Dolly! For friend potential, I’ll give her a 8/10!
Zooble
Zooble may seem like a grumpy, cynical pile of toys at first glance, hence the “Toy Box” nickname for them, but in reality they are a very supportive individual. Zooble acts this way because they were disappointed with their body and want to find something that fits them, and hates the Digital Circus like everyone else.
But as time goes on, Zooble learns to embrace their new body and even utilizes their parts in order to participate in games, such as the Guns game in They All Get Guns. They are also super supportive of Gangle, as a sort of older sibling figure to her, such as supporting her artwork and even offering to draw with her since they used to be a Tattoo Artist in the real world. An underrated bit for me is the scene where they chewed out Jax for destroying Pomni’s hope that she’ll exit the circus in the first episode.
Zooble is such an awesome friend! We need more Zoobles in the world. 10/10!
I may have been a liiiittlllleeee bit late on the Harry Potter hype train, because HBO Max had shat out a useless remake on the Harry Potter series about a couple weeks ago. And looking at the trailer, I know this is what hell looks like (well, that’s a bit of an exaggeration) and I know HBO Max simply doesn’t give a rat’s buttocks in the slightest.
Because I know HBO Max once had a rancid Scooby Doo remake not that long ago, with a misleading title called “Velma”, which has nothing to do with the Scooby Doo branding and has it slapped onto it for marketing’s sake. Thankfully, that godawful show is no longer available due to cancellation. One of the only things I’m glad will never see the light of day, let’s be honest.
So, back to Harry Potter’s so-called “remake”, it seems to be basically the same as the movies, but with different actors. It kind of reminds me of the Diary Of A Wimpy Kid series, where Jeff Kinney decided to conjure up a useless franchise of animated remakes because he “wanted the movies to be adjusted to be better than the books”.
And the trailer itself, while it looks visually pleasant, is just a watered-down version of the Harry Potter franchise. And I didn’t like how they disrespected my boi Hagrid! Like, COME ON!!! Nick Frost (who I had no idea who the fuck was), plays the role of Hagrid, and he doesn’t have the same gruff, pirate-esque voice as the Hagrid from the original movies. I get it that the original actor had died, but can’t the new actor try to sound like he did in the books and original movies to match the charm?
Look how they massacred my boy 😭
My favorite aspect of the Harry Potter films is the charm and whimsy of the fantasy world, and the remake had nipple-sucked it out of existence, leaving a soulless remake that nobody ever asked for. You can feel that when you see the trailer, as it doesn’t have any Harry Potter essence. You can replace the remake’s Harry Potter branding with anything else, and it be just like any other show on HBO Max.
But, if you have the tough balls to see the series for yourself, be my guest. This remake is not my cup of tea, personally. But feel free to support my YouTube channel and I also post similar content as my blogs! I’ll put the link below!
(Warning: I sound very high pitched, because puberty hates me!)
Man, when I first heard of this anime thanks to the popular YouTuber himself, Schaffrillas Productions, I knew it was going to be very special. This anime has everything I could ever want in a slice of life anime: wacky Chowder-esque humor, a gang of oddball side characters, and a stoic protagonist who is also incredibly OP!
This anime seems pretty hilarious, I’ll tell you that much, and SPOILER ALERT: it is! The main premise of this anime is basically the same thing I said a few sentences ago!
Saiki himself (according to some people on Reddit, Saiki’s surname “Kusuo” translates to shit, or more PG-rated, feces!) is a 16 year old boy who has to try living a ho-hum, forgettable life as a high schooler, with a bunch of wacky side characters forcing him to play in their shenanigans, much to his dismay! It’s basically a predictable show, where Saiki learns to appreciate his many friends after helping them (much to his reluctance)!
But, the anime, along with its surreal, idiotic comedy, actually works! It’s basically Mob Psycho 100’s (speaking of, I might discuss my thoughts on this anime after I finish this review) hilarious slice of life escapades as a whole anime! This anime has really great jokes and delivery, mostly because of Saiki himself’s hilarious snarky performance. His English dub actor, Jerry Jewell, does a wonderful job keeping up with Saiki’s sarcastic tone of voice and having to deal with everyone’s bullcrap.
But my personal favorite character, if you have seen my YouTube shorts, has got to be Nendou himself!
A picture of the silly skrunklo, Nendou!
Honestly I really like Nendou, idk why! He’s just a goofy dumbass who makes me laugh everytime he’s on screen. My favorite part of the anime has got to be the scene where Saiki encounters Nendou’s father (who looks a lot like Nendou himself) as a ghost where he harasses him unintentionally! Poor Saiki just wants some space, but this scene is hilarious!
And I like the part where Saiki’s mom angrily orders him to go to the beach with his friend Nendou. God, there are so many god-tier scenes, I could fill up this entire blog.
But not to say that this anime is flawless, however. There are a few characters I really dislike, and one of them is Teruhashi’s brother (I forgot his name and I don’t give a rat’s buttocks), and he’s basically the perverted brother crushing on his sister, and it gets pretty old quickly. And the creepy purple haired pervert who stares at porn magazines is really annoying, which doesn’t help matters when he takes up a lot of screen time.
But those problems are nitpicks, and I cannot help but enjoy Saiki K! I highly recommend this anime if you want a goofy comfort watch and want to see stupid characters do stupid shit! That’s the end. Toodles!
(Also, the Season 1 End Credits is fucking wholesome and a complete banger.)
