Golden:

K-Pop Demon Hunters has some catchy music, but the catchiest song of all is 'Golden.'  I've downloaded it for the purpose of listening to it 100 times and then adding it to my music hall of fame as a 5-star song.

This song would be so good for a figure skater or gymnast to perform to.  The 'Golden' title would perfectly fit an Olympian's dream of a gold medal. . .  If the Olympics in Italy includes a 'Golden' skate you heard it hear first.

I used some of my own 'gold' ($33) to purchase 2 more SS Memorias.  I got the new Motorcycle Maki as well as tuxedo Karen, which though old is new to me.  I also got a really useful ability for Misato, 'sugar rush,' which gives you +2 sp at the start of the battle.  Like Sumomo's catnip ability, sugar rush may have actually been the most beneficial acquisition this time around.  Additionally, the game gave me a free SS Memoria of my choice out of 4 options.  It included 3 SS Memorias I didn't own and one I did own, so obviously I picked the one I did own -- Goddess Yingxia.  This let me instantly limit break her to level 1.  I have big plans for Goddess Yingxia, I think she can become one of my strongest warriors, so rather than uselessly recruit Memorias I'll never actually use I'd rather focus on her.  Eventually my thunder squad could become my strongest via investments like this, and then maybe I could take down monsters like Apophis.  Ultimately my goal is to beat all the bosses in the game, not just widen my trophy collection.

I am happy, now that I got tuxedo Karen, to own every single Memoria of Squad 31-A -- but I'm still missing base Megumi, so I'm one short of that collector's goal.  At the start of Chapter 5 Part 1 they let me choose whichever base Memoria I wanted for free, so maybe they'll do that again for Part 2.  In that case I would definitely choose Megumi.

There were a lot of upsets this week in college football, but the truly unbelievable upset was when 0-4 UCLA beat #7 Penn State.  The last time something like that happened was in the 1980's.
