...I don't really know what else to say here, it was simply a year.

I actually think I played more new games this year during the year of their release than any year of my life thus far, including (in order of release) Pokemon Legends: Arceus, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, Kao the Kangaroo (2022), Sonic Origins, Cuphead and The Delicious Last Course, the Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series, Bear and Breakfast, Cult of the Lamb, Touhou # Black Market of Bulletphilia ~ 100th Black Market, Brok the InvestiGator, Splatoon 3, Lonesome Village, Sonic Frontiers, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, Super Kiwi 64, and Super Lesbian Animal RPG, and my top 3 out of all of them would probably be Brok the InvestiGator, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, and Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, and there are also once again a couple games from this year that I also own but haven't played yet and am planning on playing in the future. As for shows and movies, I didn't actually get to watch a whole lot from this year, but my favorite new movie from this year was of course The Bad Guys, and I also liked the second Sonic movie and Sonic Prime for the most part so far. Speaking of The Bad Guys, my liking of the movie also prompted me to get fully caught up on the Bad Guys books, and me watching the Scary Godmother movies again also prompted me to read the entirety of the Scary Godmother books as well, and I really liked both of them. I also once again read all of this year's releases of the Sonic IDW comics, and they've also been really good, and I've been enjoying the current Scrapnik Island miniseries and am looking forward to seeing it's conclusion. As for stuff that's coming out in 2023, I'm looking forward to the release of both Tears of the Kingdom and (hopefully) chapters 3, 4, and 5 of Deltarune as well as maybe Crash Team Rumble, and me playing all the mainline windows era Touhou games and 18.5 in the past few months (which I did, by the way :3) also has me looking forward to the inevitable release of Touhou 19. I'm also interested in seeing what happens with the Mario movie as well as more of Sonic Prime, and I also watched the first two Rock Dog movies a couple months back and am looking forward to the release of Rock Dog 3 in this coming month.

As for stuff I'm planning on doing in 2023, I'm once again going to be doing basically everything I've been doing for the past couple years, but I'll also sometimes be doing fursona art on my fursona alt on the side, and I'm also thinking of bringing back Zelda Month in March instead of doing Kirby Month this year (although I might alternate between them or try to do both of them in future years, I dunno). I also have an insane backlog of games that I've been wanting to play and possibly review on here, so I'd like to spend a lot of time doing that as well, and I'm once again also already working on both a review and a versus to kick off the year.

And that's pretty much all I wanted to say here! I hope you all had a nice year in 2022, and I hope you all have another nice year in 2023!
