BACK-TO-BACK DOUBLE DOSE OF MHA TONIGHT
FOOD WARS ENDS TONIGHT WITH A DOUBLE SERVING @ 0130

Also two Yashahime eps.

I might be able to tune in tonight if I can get a stream and my headphones to work, but my wifi will be spotty and I�ll have to find a place in this house where nobody will see me and my idiot boomer uncle who is physically incapable of shutting up or leaving people alone won�t bother me. Also I don�t know if his ISP does streaming poo poo.

EDIT: Apparently this house connects to the internet via a cell tower, so I might be SOL unless my laptop can do 5G or I get lucky.

Are you sure? My cable box is telling me 2 MHA, 2 Food Wars, and only 1 Yashahime.

Oh okay, nevermind then

EDIT: Unnecessary Status Update: I�m now at a different uncle�s house for my grandma�s birthday. There�s food and old people I don�t want to talk to everywhere (I have a SHITLOAD of aunts and uncles) and a small brass band in the backyard. The band just started playing Conga by Gloria Estefan and the trumpet player is loving up the 16th-note runs in the chorus real bad (which I can�t say I blame him, I�ve tried playing those runs myself and they are not easy).

Yashahime - We hunted down and kicked Red Skelton's rear end, because I guess his style of mid-20th century humor just didn't translate very well to feudal Japan.

Also our villains seem to be the Four Perils of Chinese Myth, led by a Kirin.

I want Six-Legs-No-Face to be voiced by Billy West doing his Stimpy voice.

Wikipedia doesn�t say a whole lot about Goat-Tse except that his Japanese counterpart is a weasel with big sickle-like claws that may or may not travel via wind storms.

EDIT: Actually Wikipedia doesn�t say much about any of these guys except Six-Legs-No-Face for some reason. At least not in English.

EDIT 2: Why does the dragon have legs and cloven hooves like some kind of weird horse-deer crossbreed?

It's less a dragon and more a very creative artistic interpretation of a giraffe by Ming Dynasty scholars, in the same way the myth of the Unicorn is just a rhino described to someone who had never seen a rhino before.

Kirin have lots of depictions, sometimes with hooves sometimes with claws, but Horse Dragon with horns has been the general look for thousands of years
