GNA Chronicles: May

Hey home skillets, this has been filled with so much geekery and yet I've had so little time to partake. I have a feeling that this wont change in the next week or two as I have two events to go, but best believe these events are going to be awesome. I'm really excited to check them out; you'll hear more about them later! Here's my GNA Chronicles for May.

Video Games
Rune Factory 4

This game is soooooooo good. It has pretty much all of the video game genres I like in one from farming sim to elements of Pokemon and RPG goodness. I actually stopped playing it to give Story of Seasons a go. Now I want to stop SOS and got back to Rune Factory. I'm gonna hold off a little longer because I feel like I haven't put enough time into SOS. 

Story of Seasons

A few of you know that I have been waiting for this game to come out for awhile. While I have enjoyed the game so far, the prologue is dragging a little too long for me. I believe I'm on the last day and will get my farm soon. But I've actually taken a break from playing. I need to pick it back up >_< I bought Boba Witcher 3 yesterday, so I'll most likely resume this game tonight while he plays.

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate

Not too much to report on this game right now. I've heard great things about the Monster Hunter series, so I decided to give it a go.

Anime
Ore Monogatari
I blame Tiffany for getting me addicted to this sugary goodness of an anime. This anime, oh man this anime has drop kicked my in my feels it's soooooo good! It follows the story of Takeo Goda's first love. I really love all the characters, and it's great to see someone's first love blossom. The unconventional story line is amazing. It's also really hilarious! I remember hearing about seeing art from the manga prior to watching and really didn't pay it any attention. The need to watch it was so bad that ya girl signed up for Cruncyroll which to be honest I should have done a long time ago. We also watched an episode of Gekkan Shojo Nozaki kun and The Rose of Versailles after we binge watched Ore Mono.

Comic Books

Jem and the Holograms
I decided to pick this up on Memorial Day because I am a huge fan of the cartoon. This comic is amazing and I read all three in one day. I can't wait for the next comic to come out. Everything about it is really good. I wish I could actually hear the songs because the lyrics are awesome. I wonder if they'll actually make the songs and provide links to them. I recently bought the first trade of the Bee and Puppycat comic and they was a story in there about a music box. They added QR codes for each music box that would take you to a link for the song on YouTube.

Cartoons

Steven Universe
Tiffany is also to blame for this one haha This show is so amazing. It's often on my Tumblr dash, and I hadn't paid it any attention. I really should have watched it a lot sooner. The characters are amazing, and I'm really excited to catch up.

TV Shows

Daredevil
Netflix is winning with their original shows. Their take on Daredevil is amazing; I love the main actor and remember watching him in Stardust. Boba and I haven't finished it yet, but we plan on finishing it soon.

That's it for me! I'm gonna enjoy the rest of this day, and I hope you all do as well^^

Harvest Moon Tomfoolery?!

Hi lovely peeps! I am finally finding more time for myself. There's still a lot of posts that I need to write, but I'm not too far behind. It's been a dreary week in NYC, but today is looking a little better. I can't believe next week will be New York Comic Con! I'm really excited to attend^^ So as some of you know from my post awhile back that I am really excited for the next Harvest Moon game, or wait can I even call it a Harvest Moon game anymore?! Okay, let me start at the beginning.

A few days I ago I realized that it was getting closer to the release for the new Harvest Moon game (Story of Seasons). So, I decided to search the tag Harvest Moon tag in Twitter. So I see a game called The Lost Valley, and I'm like bish whet? Two Harvest Moon games in the same year?! Ayyyy turn up! But then something told me this can't be right upon closer inspection of the box art. I then remembered an article I read about how Natsume was not going to be distributing Story of Seasons.

To keep it short and simple, Harvest Moon's actual name is Bokujō Monogatari (牧場物語) which basically means Farm Story. In the West, it's called Harvest Moon, but the company that makes Bokujō Monogatari no longer owns the name Harvest Moon. Natsume retained the use of the title Harvest Moon. So essentially this Lost Valley game is not a Bokujō Monogatari game. It's a separate farming simulation/otome game made by Natsume.

This is Story of Seasons, which is the next game by the makers of Bokujō Monogatari

The Lost Valley, the new farming simulation game Natsume is creating with the Harvest Moon name

I don't really know what this means for the future of Bokujō Monogatari as far as naming conventions go. XSEED is just calling it Story of Seasons, so we'll see if the makers behind Bokujō Monogatari come up with a new Western title so people we be able to easily recognize it as their game. I hope too many people aren't left unawares and buy The Lost Valley game on accident. I know I would be ready to go H.A.M if that happened to me. So be careful what you buy! If any decides to give The Lost Valley a chance let me know how it is. I haven't played Minecraft before, but I saw a few people saying it had similar elements to that came so they weren't interested in it. Thanks for reading!
