It was once again simply a year :3

The games I played this year include (once again in order of release) Pizza Tower, Kirby's Return to Dreamland Deluxe, Password, The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Arches, Sonic Origins Plus, Touhou 19: Unfinished Dream of All Living Ghost, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet: The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero, A Tiny Sticker Tale, Sonic Superstars, Super Mario Bros Wonder, The Smoke Room Fall/Halloween AU, and Howl, and if I had to pick a favorite of them, I've been really enjoying all the VNs I've been playing this past year, but disregarding them and stuff like DLCs and re-releases... I don't really know. They were all pretty solid for the most part, but I feel like I would place a lot of them about equally personally. I also didn't watch and read a whole lot of new stuff from this year since I mostly focused on watching and reading older stuff, but I did watch the second season of Sonic Prime and will be watching the third season when it comes out on the 11th of this coming month and have a lot of other series from this year and past years that I'm also planning on watching and/or reading at some point, and the only movies from this year that I've seen are Rock Dog 3 and the Mario movie. I also once again have still been reading the Sonic IDW comics, and I've also been keeping up with the Bad Guys books and am looking forward to the release of both book 19 in July as well as possibly the first volume of The Lara-Su Chronicles (which is finally coming out soon by the way :3). As for other things I'm looking forward to the release of in 2024, there actually isn't a whole lot in terms of games that have been revealed yet that I'm planning on playing, but I will be playing Portal Revolution when it comes out on the 5th as well as Toree Saturn and maybe the Thousand-Year Door remake and will also be listening in on what all the ongoing series I follow will be doing this year, and I am planning on at least seeing Kung Fu Panda 4 in March and the third Sonic movie in December. I was also anticipating us to get more chapters of Deltarune this past year (I also remember hearing from I don't remember where back when Chapter 2 came out that Chapters 3, 4, and 5 would be releasing at the same time, but the last update from this year made that seem unlikely), so here's hoping Chapter 3 comes out in 2024.

As for things I'm planning on doing in 2024, I once again have the goal of playing/watching/reading a lot of stuff in my backlog, and I also will be doing Pokemon Month, Toon June, Sonictember, and probably Inktober (I say probably because I might do less for it in this coming October like I did in this past October), and I also think I'm going to stick to the idea of me alternating between Zelda and Kirby Month, so I'll be doing Kirby Month this year in April instead of Zelda Month in March.

...and that's about it! I hope 2023 was nice for all of you, and I hope that continues in 2024!
