I had gotten used to Sweetness & Lightning skipping chapters (Before this week, there were at least 3 chapters we’ll never see animated) But I wasn’t expecting them to take the first half of one chapter and the second half of an earlier chapter to make an episode. And I’m even more surprised at how well it worked!
But seriously, if you like Sweetness & Lightning, you should read the manga, it’s great.

The video review of the new Yokai Medals that looks like poker chips reveals an interesting addition: they all have the exact same set of ridges on the back of the medals! (Nagabana, in this case.) Instead of ridges, all the metals now have chips behind the stickers! Quite a jump up in technology, but unfortunately it renders all previous watches obsolete.

I have a patreon now
Hey everybody. As you may have noticed by the blog description and my last post, I’ve started a patreon where translations will be posted. Translations will still be posted here on a delay, but patrons will get access to early translations and higher tiers of patrons will get bonus commissions. You can still do one-time donations and commission translations normally, but if you want to support this whole translation endeavor and are able to spare a bit of money, I’d be eternally grateful. 
Here it is if you’re interested.

anyone else still bitter about the fact that peggy died off screen, we never got to hear anything about her family or even her life, and her funeral was overshadowed by an awkward attempt at setting up a subpar romance plot that nobody needed nor wanted??

Studio Ghibli Key Animator Makiko Futaki Passes Away at 58
Studio Ghibli animator Makiko Futaki passed away last Friday, 13th May, while being treated for an illness. She was 58. Her close relatives held a private funeral for her.
Futaki who worked on almost every Ghibli film from Nausicaa to When Marnie Was There was primarily a key animator and is said to have animated the iconic scene in 1988′s My Neighbour Totoro where Mei, Satsuki and the Totoro’s grow a giant camphor tree in their garden, so its safe to say she was pretty much a Studio Ghibli Legend.

fwiw Jonathan’s is a chain of American-style restaurants in Japan that’s sort of like an upscale Denny’s.
It’s sort of like Jonathan Joestar’s named Denny Dennstar.

incidentally, this is still the single most hilarious anecdote re: apollo astronauts i have come across
Apollo 13 was halfway to the moon before Swigert realized he had not filed his income taxes and that he would be quite unable to do so before the April 15 deadline. The subject came up as scientist-astronaut Joe Kerwin was reading the Sunday morning news: “Today’s favorite pastime across the nation—Uh oh, have you guys completed your income tax?”
Swigert radioed, “How do I apply for an extension?” Mission control exploded with laughter. “It ain’t too funny, things happened real fast down there and I do need an extension. I’m really serious…”
“You’re breaking up the room down here,” Kerwin said. A few minutes later he assured Swigert that there wouldn’t be any problem: an automatic extension is granted to anyone who is out of the country at tax time.
