Lol I didn’t write any journal entries in 2017....
Anyway, I got suckered into Fire Emblem Heroes this past year. I watched a lot of anime as normal. The winner of my anime of the year was Donten ni Warau; it’s not a 2017 show but I watched it this year. Best 2017 anime goes to Katsugeki Touken Ranbu.
2017 was a pretty good year for me.
Happy 2018!

Lol my last entry was in March, and I was wondering who I'd marry in Revelations. I married Ryoma, which started an obsession and I fell into Fire Emblem Fates Hell. According to my activity log, I've spent 1000+ hours in the game. I got Homebrew for my DS, and a Japanese audio patch, and I was trying to bond with everyone. I played through Birthright like a million times in order to get different classes for Ryoma and get all the skills for him. And then I started doing no-reset runs on Classic and giving my friends Death Bingo cards to fill out.
Anyway, I started a tumblr blog with my random Fates fangirlings. I also started another blog for my amigurumi creations.
Through a double-elimination tournament, I determined that my top anime of 2016 was Haikyuu!!, followed by Sakamoto Desu ga, and Poco's Udon World (Udon no Kuni no Kiniro Kemari). Evidently I watched a lot of anime in 2016, 62 series + movies.
My top game of 2016 was Fire Emblem Fates, followed by Pokemon Sun, then AA Spirit of Justice.
---------------------
In January I binge-watched a lot of anime, I think I marathoned through Haikyu
In February Fire Emblem Fates came out. I wasn't that into it at first. It was like, "this isn't Awakening, who are these people??"
In March I played through Conquest, Swordmaster Odin MVP
In April I started Revelations, married Ryoma, fell into Fates Hell
In May I finished Revelations, and started runs of Birthright to get Ryoma skills
In June I don't remember, Fates Hell
In July I got a Cintiq!
In August I'm back to Fates Hell, and making friends with new tablet
In September I played through AA Spirit of Justice, return of Maya!
In October I went on a trip to China and Japan. Went to the Kirby Cafe!
In November I played Pokemon Sun. Named my team after Fates characters. Used Solgaleo on my team and named it "Ryoma", caught it in a Premier Ball so it sparkles every time I send it out.
In December I completed my Alolan Pokedex! I took on some crochet commissions, so I was pretty much crocheting all month in between daily Pokemon stuff.

Happy Pi Day / White Day

It's also my 11th devART birthday 
Haven't drawn anything in like a month, been buried in Fire Emblem Fates. I got the special edition, as well as the Fates New 3DS. I'm done Birthright, near the end of Conquest. Logged about 120h in total so far. Will probably spend just as much time in Revelations 'cause I want to grind out all (or most) the supports. I play FE as a shipping simulator more than a strategy game lol.
I married Jakob in Birthright (mostly 'cause he has a British accents, and says pretty corny things when bonding with him), and Odin in Conquest (partly 'cause Owain is my 2nd fave character from Awakening, after Lon'qu). I think Odin's a better husbando. I made him into a Swordmaster (he has a custom outfit as one
), gave him a forged named Killing Edge, so he always has >50% crit rate lol. Haven't decided who to marry in Revelations yet.
My Hoshido castle is named "Secret Base M", and Nohr castle is named "Emerald Palace", I think the names are unique enough to search by name. Visit me!
I also figured out how to take screenshots through Miiverse, so I've been doing that too. Here's my Miiverse blog thing: miiverse.nintendo.net/users/Ma…
*runs off to spend more time with FE husbando*

Happy New Year's Eve!!
Looking back at my journals and submissions, I didn't really upload much here this year XD But that doesn't mean I haven't been making stuff! While I did draw less, 2015 had been a crafty year. The first half of the year I put my drawing stuff on hold to make things for my wedding. The second half of the year I learned how to crochet and make amigurumi I also started posting my stuff more on twitter.
Through a double-elimination tournament, I determined that my top anime of 2015 was Akatsuki no Yona, followed by Beautiful Bones -Sakurako's Investigation-, and Shirobako. My top game of 2015 was Pokemon Shuffle (which also has the highest play time, according to 3DS activity log), followed by Yoshi's Woolly World, and Project Mirai DX.
-----------
Here's the thing I did last year, where I try to summarize each month. The first half of the year was pretty hard 'cause I have a terrible memory and I didn't write many journals on devART to help me remember lol.
In January I bought my wedding dress. It's a ball-gown type with a poofy skirt, train, and lace.
In February I started playing Pokemon Shuffle, I pretty much got addicted to it for the rest of the year, 'cause it keeps on having new content every week. I started experimenting with origami designs to get the rose I want for my bouquet and stuff.
In March I reached my 10 deviantART anniversary, but I didn't really do anything to celebrate it
Late March, I started playing Fire Emblem Awakening. I didn't play the game when it came out 'cause I wasn't a huge fan of FE (the copy I played wasn't even mine), I randomly decided to give it a try and got really hooked on it 'cause they characters are so adorkable <3
In April I went to view the venues for my wedding. My 3DS activity data tells me I played a lot of FE Awakening this month XD
In May I finished the wedding invitations finally. I went to Anime North, but wasn't part of the Gym Leaders stuff, instead I went around as Squid Girl/Glaceon mostly to cosplay photoshoots. I rewatched Akatsuki no Yona with Dylan, and he really liked it, even though he's not generally a fan of shoujo; afterwards I marathoned and caught up to the manga (still want a season 2 of the anime though!)
In June I made a lot of origami roses, and started assembling the bouquets for my wedding. Dylan made me a scavenger hunt for my birthday, which led to some custom-commissioned eeveelution plushies. Played a lot of Splatoon; I'd never thought I would like a shooting game (though I use the roller, so I guess it doesn't really feel like a shooting game), nor one where you play with random ppl online lol
In July I finished the bouquets and centrepieces, and designed the program for my wedding, as well as the various decorations like favours and escort cards. I reached 3000 miis in Mii Plaza! Went to ConBravo, mostly to hang out with friends; for a good portion of the con I sat there and played Link Between Worlds and cleared out my mii plaza lol.
In August I got married and went to Iceland for my honeymoon. At the end of August I finally started on Last Window, which I bought a couple years ago and sat on my shelf all this time, I think I like it better than Hotel Dusk.
In September I finally got to play Project Mirai DX (it was delayed from the original date in May), I've been waiting for this game for a long time. At the end of September, I also got Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer, which I wasn't too convinced about at first, but it was pretty fun.
In October I played Yoshi's Woolly World, which I've been waiting for since seeing at at E3 2 years ago. The aesthetics is really cute. Someone posted a tutorial on how to crochet an Yoshi egg, so I took the opportunity to finally learn how to crochet (which I've been meaning to do for like the past couple years lol)! At the end of October, I entered a Nintendo contest for Happy Home Designer and won the full set of the amiibo cards!
In November I learned to crochet more, and how to make amigurumi in general. I marathoned through a bunch of stuff while Dylan was glued to Desert Bus, including Korra (which I dropped after like the first few eps the first time I tried watching it) and Gravity Falls, and a bunch of idol anime. I got Triforce Heroes and played with friends.
In December I moved to a different office in a new building. Made party favours for the company Holiday Party, made Christmas presents for people, made paper decorations for the new office space. Did a lot of knitting and crocheting while I watched anime. Started and caught up to Haikyu, the characters are quite adorakable XD
-----------
tl;dr version:
- I got married in August
- pre-August is wedding preparation stuff, a lot of origami
- I played a lot of games, Pokemon Shuffle is the new Candy Crush lol
- I finally learned how to crochet in October, yay!!
This is what my journal last year said:
I did 3 of those 4 things, so that's good, right?
-----------
In 2016 I hope to:
- Spend less money on figures
- Be less lazy
- Go to sleep earlier
- Organize photos from trips
- Finish projects I start >_<

Ace Attorney Anime!!!
1 min read
twitter.com/nindori/status/644… Ace Attorney anime, Coming April 2016. IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING!!!!!!
Also, trailer for the upcoming Ace Attorney 6: www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqZOzo…
Now I just need them to localize Dai Gyakuten Saiban.....
I've been playing a lot of Project Mirai DX. I love mixing/matching outfits, and I like how there's alternate versions of some songs. I like Tap Mode, find it generally easier than button mode.
Also playing Mario Maker. I'm not a huge fan of 2D Mario (mostly because I can't run and jump at the same time, and I'm just terrible at controlling Mario in general), but making levels is more fun than I initially thought. Most of the levels I created are pretty gimmicky though.
I'll.... draw something... eventually >__<
