This episode aired the season before “Lisa the Vegetarian”, and the only reason Lisa stayed a veggie after that episode was because Paul McCartney asked them to make it permanent.
The Simpsons predicted their own damn character development.

Promare was good. Somehow it manages to strike a balance being appropriately subdued and delightfully madcap when it needs to and that's also reflected with both of the leads (with Galo representing the latter and Lio serving as the former) and the dynamic both of them have as the film goes along. The animation is also really good with its use of colors and the use of 2D/CG (the backgrounds in particular really gave me parallels of The PowerPuff Girls Movie). It's really unfortunate that domestic showings are limited, as I'd say seeing it in a theater with an audience also really boosts the entertainment factor to a really fun high.
Some partially masked-spoilers.

Sonic game awards. Please cheer 

Vic Mignogna has had one of the worst years of his career, but on the flipside Johnny Yong Bosch has had one of the best years of his career. 

You know, unlike a lot of my contemporaries at the time when it came out, I really was confused on why exactly Shadow's game existed. I didn't think it was BAD, it was just a resounding "But why tho..." even after beating the game, I couldn't help but think "Why does this game exist" 
Fourteen years of wisdom later and I'm like "Oh, it was to appeal to edgelords"...and you know what, there was actually nothing wrong with that. But I notice this trend of video game developers having a massive split opinion between newer fans and older veterans.
Shadow the character is just kind of the embodiment of that split in a single character.

I think it's time we blow this scene 
Get everybody and the stuff together
OK
3, 2, 1, let's jam

The Flash has been really good this season, reminding me a lot of Season 1, but god I hope they keep it up. Season 4 was good up til Episode 8 and then they just completely choked.

The ending to Cowboy Bebop is one of the few things I really wish I could’ve saw unspoiled.

The concept art of a weakling

Sonic Colors is the Sword and Shield of Sonic; it taught Sonic Team that they don't have to try in order for the series to sell, and fans ate it right up and now we're stuck with games like Forces and the Nega Wisp Armor as the final boss in every game. 
So thanks for that Colors I guess. 

Fact:
If it weren't for Sonic Colors and Sonic Team's work for the Nintendo Wii in general, they'd still be making games with the same effort as they did with Unleashed. As far as I'm concerned, they're mindset is to make games as if they were for the Wii.

the poll

It's funny to see how robust the nickname filter is in SwSh. For every naughty word/phase that you're not allowed, you can always find at least one widely recognised alternative.

The absolute strangest thing I'm seeing now is how Gen 8 has caused people to see how "good" Gen 5 was. And all I remember is how those games were criticized for the very same things they're being praised for now.
In conclusion, I've just stopped trying to rationalize opinions
 

You know, I am fully aware of the game's problems and whatnot. But man, I am enjoying Sword/Shield so very much. 
The Quality of Life changes are what I've been wanting for so long, and the new Pokemon have such amazing stats to abuse. 
Raid Battles are fun as hell with friends. It's a very fulfilling experience so far for me. 

Haha, Stone evolved Pokemon learn all of their pre evolved moves from the move relearner. So I can get a Ninetails before the first gym.

"Adventure to your heart's content! The Galar Region is yours to explore!
Please note: Strictly no exploration allowed. All attempts to explore Galar will be met with invisible walls and disappointment.

The more I play through SwSh, the more it's dawning on me that Galar might just be the smallest region ever in terms in terms of gameplay. It's 99% window dressing. You can't go anywhere.

Pretty cool for Sonic's older creators to take interest in fan works

It's really disappointing that Charizard only got a single Gigantamax form in SwSh. I was hoping that it would get at least 2 like with the Megas, along with variants for each of the past seven regions. Charizard always gets the shaft. 

The latest Pokemon anime just looks like "two idiot boys being idiots on a world journey" and I love it

Whilst I still think that SwSh are the best Pokémon experiences I've had in years. I'm discovering the problems that people have with the games, one by one as I play it for myself. What I've found so far...
