so, ultrakill's violence layer is unbelievably cool. like, i was not prepared for any level of it. but on top of obscenely awesome gameplay and setpieces, it also delivers some REALLY juicy lore, especially about the war that we've been hearing about for so long.
and it's just occurred to me that one figure of time given in a lore entry has revealed so much more context surrounding it than i could ever dream of.
in a terminal entry that i won't be specific about to avoid spoilers, it's stated that the war lasted roughly 200 years. this would be useless if we didn't know when the war ended...
but we do.
in the opening of the game, we see this.
i've always assumed this was the current date, but i only now realize that it's not. it's the last time V1's firmware got an update, which would have to be during the war, since the V1 project was scrapped when it ended. and since we know V1 was made around the end of the war, we can assume the war ended around 2112. 200 years earlier would be somewhere around the 1910s.
all of this makes it extremely likely that this isn't just some fictional war. it's World War 1. this is a world where WW2 never happened, because WW1 never ended. it kept going and going and building and getting more and more horrific until eventually literally becoming the war to end all wars.
this also recontextualizes machines being fueled by blood, as its now clear that the invention of the machines happened in the middle of the war, and its likely that battle was their sole purpose. it always seemed weird to me before, but i had always assumed that machines existed before the war broke out. if their goal has always been to kill, it seems reasonable that the killing should be able to fuel them. only makes it more horrific, though.

I was watching Rise animatics to pass the time and ran across the animatic for probably my favorite scene in the whole show? So I absolutely had to watch it. And then my jaw dropped
What has always always always stood out to me is that Raph has no markings. That’s only increased when the turtles use their power. Mikey, Donnie, and Leo all have markings that glow. Even April’s bat glows
^ Really good image that showcases that
BUT
In the animatic for the episode Anatawa Hitorijanai I found this
When the turtles unlock their power, their markings grow to cover their bodies more than they already did
Donnie’s markings mostly just expand upon what he already gas
Leo gets another pair of stripes on his legs, not much actually changed there
Mikey’s shoulder markings turn into bullseyes, same with his legs. I’m not sure if the things on his forearms are extensions of his normal wrist wraps (I think that’s what they are. The placement of them is exactly the same)
And I was thinking about how Raph not having markings is even more out of place
Then
EXCUSE ME? He DOES have markings and they look like his sai
His brand new markings are even showcased in the fight against the Shredder

Monday, February 12.
The Superb Owl cometh.
The Owl is here. After all, there are owls, and then there are Owls. This would be the latter.
This is the superb owl. You may not like it, but this is what peak owl performance looks like. After 32 owls, a playoff between 12, and the final between the two elite competitors, we have this year's champion at last.
Just kidding—all owls are superb. Every last one: barn, snowy, great grey, or boreal, it matter not. So, to celebrate the arrival of all of this year's exemplary specimens, we have gathered a selection of these beloved (and mostly) nocturnal friends. Starting with this pal, who looks like an apple.

so based on just seeing posts about it on my dash, dungeon meshi is about two lesbians having hot sweaty sloppy makeout sessions, two guys going “hmm. yes. we could eat that” while looking at a fuckin dragon or whatever, and then there are also just some children hanging out. and one of the children has inexplicably been divorced twice and has five children or something. how close am i. this sounds like the greatest show ever made
