VHS advertisements were a crucial piece of insight into the greater world of anime—and they evolved into an art form of their own.

The Forgotten Surprises of Anime VHS Commercials

I loved those old AMV-style promo reels.

    Nearly struck out, had to get all the way to the vocal track to figure out the song. And I would have never recognized it if it hadn't been for the fact that my sister used to listen to this all the time back in the day.

    Bandle - Song guessing game, one instrument track at a time

    bandle.app Guess the song, one instrument at a time

    Daily musical game where you guess the song played by the band with the least musicians playing as possible

    Guess the song, one instrument at a time

    Probably the daily game I keep up with the most. I'm often garbage at guessing any song past 2010, but that's a me problem, not a Bandle problem.

    What were the names your parents were going to name you that didn't make the cut?
  • Andy, but they decided against it at the last minute. However, my dad's brother and his pregnant wife really liked the name, and a few months later my cousin Andy was born.

  • How do you know what a streaming service have available if all of them need you to subscribe before showing you.
  • JustWatch does a decent job of telling you if a specific movie is on any of the streaming services. For example, I just searched for the movie Tombstone and apparently it's on Apple TV+, Hulu, and AMC's service.

    It's not always accurate, so take everything it says with a grain of salt, but it's better than nothing.

  • Does anyone else hear partake in the 1001 albums challenge?
  • Thank you for reminding me of this. I started a few years ago, got about a dozen albums in, and then fell off because I got busy with stuff. I was just thinking about how I need to find more music, time to pick this back up.
