Super happy to hear Panini's reprinting the Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days manga next year. The Yen Press releases from years ago are now OOP and go for some insane prices and it's cool that Panini have been reprinting these KH manga again. Cannot wait to get this one as I've heard it's really good.

Happy birthday to Paul Mercier who's currently voicing Hamber in Pokémon Horizons.
Sad to hear Okratron5000 isn't going to continue dubbing the rest of S4 of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime. The first half of the season and Season 3 was so much fun with the ton of remote talent involved and being kept on my toes with who should show up next.

I feel old typing this but today is the 15th anniversary of Billy Bob Thompson's Pokémon debut where he first voiced Unova gym leader Burgh in Black and White. 15 years later and he's still going strong as ever voicing characters and Pokémon in the current series Horizons.
So happy to be spending my 3rd birthday year with Frost, especially with plenty of kisses. #frost #bunny #rabbit #cutebunny #cuterabbit
