Underground Labyrinth buried:

On the 91st playthrough I determined this song had no business belonging in a music hall of fame.  It's deliberately discordant and unnerving.  At rare intervals it will include good notes but then it invariably goes back to bad again.

That brings the total down to 5514, and Hitoshi Sakimoto's total down to 358, only 5 ahead of Yasunori Mitsuda.

It also means I only have 1820 songs left to clear my 100 playthrough benchmark.  I can't wait to finish this project.  Even if I do clear all my remaining songs, inevitably I'll add new songs from Tales of Arise or Bravely Default II, so it will only be a temporary clear, like my full anime rewatch was only temporary.  But even a temporary clear is a huge win.

Another manga is back from hiatus, Rurouni Kenshin.

Aside from the obnoxious blackwashing of the white fictional characters of The Wheel of Time, the trailer looks amazing.  I've been looking forward to this tv show for decades now so I'm glad to see it's been given a reasonable budget necessary for a grand epic.

In addition, I fixed the childrens' names of Aizen and Kira in '100 Waifus' to be named after the first names of those characters in line with all the other kids' names.  Now it's 'Sousuke' and 'Izuru.'  I should have noticed this a lot sooner, sigh.
