March 2025 Favorites

Months go by. The future is scary. Here are some favorites.

Persona 3 Reload: I'm getting to the end of this game, and I'm already sad about it. I have so many other games I want to play. But few games pull me in this deeply these days. I love these characters, and I will miss them.

1000xRESIST: This game tells an interesting and unique dystopian story. And I feel like I say this all the time, but I don't want to give too much away. There are clones. It's sci-fi. Sort of psychological. More story-based than gameplay heavy. I really enjoyed it.

It's What's Inside: Speaking of psychological sci-fi, this movie is a dark comedy on Netflix. The first time I watched it, I was really unsure about it. But it pulled me in and surprised me along the way. And I watched it for a second time recently because my bestie watched it. The characters are all various levels of unlikable. But it was an interesting study of the mind. And the actors did a great job.

Serial Experiments Lain: Finished this strange anime series, and then watched a fantasic video (The Mysterious Serial Experiments Lain PS1 Game by Dungeon Chill) on the whole connected universe.

Saint Tail: And for something lighter, I started rewatching my very first anime. It's been making me emotionally nostalgic. Saint Tail is relatively unknown compared to its contemporary magic girl series, but it was such an important show for me.

Ant-Man & the Wasp: What can I say? Another fantastic and fun Marvel movie.

Music Favs: Animals (Coldplay), Die with a Smile (Bruno Mars & Lady Gaga), Young God (Halsey), Gone (Kina Grannis), Duvet (bôa), I Know Places (Taylor's Version), Hands of Time (Rachel Diggs).
