Song of the Week! 20 September 2025


My apologies for missing out last week; with some ongoing personal issues on the health side, my mind was somewhere else... to the point of losing the cognition of time.

But hey, at least this means I can indulge into something longer for a chance today- something out of this blog's background inner-workings, too!

Livestream Recap: 2025/09/07 Taiko no Tatsujin Official Livestream



Today's livestream one sure is one to go in the history books! Between the arcade-oriented news talk, console/overseas series apprieciation and the hosts' playaful banter with each other (Force-choking and Etou Beams very much included!), there's surely something for every Donder to enjoy.

See you after the jump!

There's something else we'd like to talk about today's entry on its own, so we'll see you after the jump for that.
