October 4th came and went with NO new news about the final movie other than the finale is going to be 41 minutes long.

Khara streamed Jo, Ha, and Q on Line Live and we got messages from the voice actors and Anno himself about Eva celebrating it's 25th anniversary. With that being said, even the Japanese fans are running out of patience waiting for this movie. The stream was spammed at the end with "No new trailer?!" and "Release date plz?!" in Japanese, there was a clear disappointment. The "Finally OST" that was released today (Japan time) also includes a movie ticket card for Shin Eva but there's still no information on when this movie is coming.

With Spring Song already out in theaters in Japan with Fathom Events preparing a US release next month, Anno literally has no excuse at this point. It's foolish of Khara to think that people who were going to travel to the Japan for the Olympics would watch the finale to some mecha anime series they've never seen before and they're going to straight up kill any hype left for this franchise if they continue to entertain such a stupid notion.

GOOD MOOOOOOOORNING SEPTAGON! Just wanted to remind you that Steve (yes, THE Steve from Minecraft) is confirmed as a DLC fighter for Smash Ultimate! Make sure to save your money for the upcoming Fighter Pass so you can cash in on Steve‘s time to shine!

>NONONONOOOOOO! IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE GENO’S TURN! I WAITED YEARS FOR THIS SHIT! IT’S NOT FAIR!!!!
“No!”

Sorry Sept, we kept trying to warn you that your “literally who” character could never compete with the success of Minecraft, but unfortunately you refused to listen. Day after day you continued to hold on to some false hope that Nintendo would pity your literally who with a new appearance. Unfortunately, no one cares about your dead character. Guess you gotta deal with the hard truth that only relevant characters get into Smash! But don’t worry, at least you now get to play Smash Ultimate as someone worthy of the slot: the one-and-only Steve!

Working on saving up for my own house, or at the very least not living with roommates and having my own place with my own expenses. My current roommates are great but I’ve always wanted to be completely independent.

Did Duel Nexus finally allow 15 cards into the extra deck? JFC it took them long enough.

Depending on the deck, Nibiru isn't the only out. Ash Blossom, Ghost Ogre, Infinite Impermanence, and Gnomaterial are all great outs to any combo summoning. The ghost girls even more so now that Called By The Grave is limited to one. There's also Mystic Mine, Evenly Matched, TCBOO, and Compulsory Evacuation Device if you went first. I don't even have to mention the Solemn cards.

If you go to locals you wont really see the best of the best meta decks. Will your card shop still have lots of players who have Borrelsword and Apollousa? Probably, along with all those hand traps I just mentioned. But you'll also see a lot more rogue decks like what you want to play because an actual Tier 2, 1, or 0 deck is simply way too expensive for a lot of players. I'm currently building Orcust right now and I have to do it at a slow pace because it's still a pretty top-tier deck despite having no place in regional and YCS top charts.

If Covid wasn't a thing I would be out playing but I certainly wouldn't be using Orcust because I only have half the cards to the deck I want to make.

Well that's just the point though. You don't find it rediculous that you have to run something like nibiru or sphere mode in absolutely everything to not die instantly to something like this?
And one can hardly be blamed for not having a spesific out in their had at absolutely all times.

Taking another look at that first image you posted, Opponent has no one to blame but himself for not using Nibiru.

My brother killed any interest in Vanguard because he couldn't shut the fuck up about how great it is. It didn't help that he chose making decks with the most loli-like anime girls wielding huge ass weapons with the cringiest flavor text. Yeah I play Sky Striker in YGO but I also play Thunder Dragon & Orcust.

I miss when making a single Stardust irst turn with my Dragunity was plenty good enough.

Most I do with Yu-Gi-Oh anymore is play Metaphys online sometimes. I was thinking about going for Rockets but  I'm no longer interested in getting back in physically now that Red-Eyes Darkness Metal is fucking dead.
I'm gonna go back to Vanguard once the pandemic dies down. You should try the mobile version. it's nowhere near as good as the physical game but it works.

So I asked around in other places that discuss the state of the meta game and it seems very likely that Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon will get hit on the next ban-list in December. I'm definitely going to keep Borreload Savage Dragon since he combos well with my Borrelsword; but what I was going to do is wait until Dragoon goes a bit further up in price (he currently dropped down to $42, I want to see if he can get into the $50's), sell him, and when he gets hit or reprinted buy him back immediately from the inevitable drop.

He's only that high up in price right now because of his effect and is very important to the current meta game. All of this will occur before the end of the year which is far before Konami will stop print of this set since it just came out like three weeks ago so I'm pretty optimistic about pulling this off.

If you need the money I say sell. But these are first editions and you never know if the price might skyrocket in a couple years. I’ve easily seen cards double in price once they are not printing those editions or that pack anymore.

Hold off if you can.

Still mad about Borrelsword existing? I agree about Dragoon though, this card is fucking format-killing.

I was at Target today doing my typical grocery shopping, and they had the 2020 Yugioh Megatins in stock for $20. I had less stuff to buy than I normally do so I went ahead and bought one on an impulse. Here's a picture with the four notable pulls I got.

Spoiler

Witch's Strike and Strength In Unity are pretty cheap despite being pretty good cards so I'll probably incorporate both into my Dark Magician deck since I haven't made any changes to it since I finished my Thunder Dragons & Sky Strikers. The real luck I got was from Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon & Borreload Savage Dragon. Here are their prices on TCGplayer:

Spoiler

If I sold them together and threw in another random staple like a Red Reboot I have laying around, I could sell them for $60 and make $40 off the tin. Red-Eyes would be very powerful in my Dark Magician deck; however the Japanese ban-list came out yesterday and banned Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon but here in NA we got one last week and Red-Eyes didn't get hit and we wont have a new list until December so I have a few months to decide on him. Borreload has no reason to get hit and he'd be kind of useful for my Thunder Dragons but I was hoping more to get Apollousa instead and she's only $10 on TCGplayer.

Even if Red-Eyes gets banned here in NA, he'd still make a pretty nice collectors card and I have more than enough room in my Collectors Binder.

Spoilers for others who may not be far into the show if they're watching it but should be safe for Class and everyone else.

Spoiler
Adam, the first angel and progenitor of all other angels except for Lilith and [Redacted] was found frozen by the Katsuragi team with the Lance of Longinus impaling him, leaving him in suspended animation. Upon foolishly removing the spear, Adam awakens and begins to completely destroy humanity and spread his seed (the other angels) around the world. The Katsuragi team use the Lance against Adam to lessen the damage and it reverts Adam back into an embryonic state.

Lilith was always in the Geofront and her Spear was destroyed when she came to Earth.

As for Antarctica, that was the second impact and it was caused by Adam combining with Lilith?

The supplemental material does a good job of explaining everything pretty clearly but as Verb said, that never really mattered anyways. In terms of plot though would you call Gendo/SEELE's conspiracy part of their development though? It's a pretty good juxtaposition against Shinji's character development where we (the audience) and he (Shinji) thinks this is all about him but isn't privy to the massive rails upon rails upon rails upon rails web of conspiracies between all the other side characters (Gendo, SEELE, Fuyutsuki, Kaji, Ritsuko, & Misato) and their constant attempts at trying to circumvent one group only to fall prey to another's master plan.

Eva shines in terms of character development but don't even try to decipher the plot because it's an unintelligible mess

The movie wraps it up better but it's still pretty garbo

Pretty late but I forgot I made this into a general. New info possibly coming October 4th for the 25th Anniversary of the series, along with a new promo image:



The AVANT preview for 3.0+1.0 is now available on the official app but it's still not officially translated and it's not even an HD rip of the preview, it's just a recording of the screen from the various venues it played at.

Also, I've been playing around with Filmora9, and made my own fan-promo reel of 3.33, it's basically a glorified AMV but some opinions on it would be nice:

Imagine being the clown that thinks we're back to normal just because he's able to do his NPC activities again. Oh, but with a mask though.

Imagine being this bitter that I'm not personally responsible for some random boomer's death because I was able to go out and get a haircut.

According to most mainstream news outlets, vaccine progress is coming along at a slightly faster than normal speed so I'm staying optimistic about sometime in the first half of next year. With that being said, we're already in a somewhat normal world now; other than having to wear a mask and getting my temp checked daily, I've been going to work, spending time with friends, and doing my usual stuff like I did before Corona was a thing. Hardly the doom and gloom some people would have you believe.

:^)

Any predictions when things might go to 'normal'? April 2021? Summer of 2021?
