Jun Maeda +5:

Today I finished my replay of the main storyline of Heaven Burns Red.  It was almost as emotional as the first time -- and almost as difficult to beat the last boss as last time!  I had my plot squad assembled for the head of the boss, but that left it up to my dark squad to handle the tail, and they really struggled to do their part.  But with the help of Seika's 'Absolute Phenomena' ability I eventually got things to work.  It's crazy how I've done so little to support Seika but she's still one of my strongest characters.

Meanwhile, I added five more songs from the game to my music hall of fame -- 'Houkago no Melody,' 'Sayonara no Soukado,' 'Kaminsho,' 'Back from the Brink,' and 'Shiva.'  I kicked out five more Valkyrie Profile songs to make room.

This should cover all the Heaven music that's currently out, at least in America.  One more Heaven related task complete.

I also got Byakko's Thunder Cat SS Memoria through a stroke of good luck.  I'm out of upgrade materials I've been getting so many memorias lately, but I'll enhance Byakko soon enough.  Maybe I'll be able to build a thunder squad after all.

Meanwhile, Spice & Wolf Remake came out in bluray with English subtitles.  I downloaded eps 20-25 because they're actually new content, completing my bluray collection, at least until the next season comes out.  As usual the archive-ready copy can be found at nyaa.si.  Oshi no Ko S2 also came out in bluray at about the same time.

I don't want to stop dwelling in Heaven, so I guess I'll move on to the event stories and recollections next~
