Mahjong is a niche favorite around these parts. It's hardly universal amongst our crew, but those of us that like it have some serious affection for the old hand-making tile game. But that's talking about riichi mahjong- the Japanese variant of the game. We have a hesitant, ignorant respect for Chinese mahjong, the original. But American mahjong? Yeah... not much respect for that. But surely a…
Gundam is back in theaters, and so are we! The long-awaited sequel to Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway is here after five years. The Sorcery of Nymph Circe has no less the emphasis on tense conversations and politics than its predecessor, but how does it this time? I will say "not quite the same," but I'm gonna make you listen to the show if you want to hear if that's a good or bad thing.

Time concerns (that proved a bit unnecessary) forced us to compress Minor Character and Major character into one pod, so Minor Character gets a little "one winner no runners up" before the main event! The Best Minor Character Nominees Are: Emma Rockford ( of the Devil ) Serra ( of the Devil ) Shiho Kubota ( Futari wa Pretty Cure ) Darumi Amemiya ( The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy ) Kyoshika…
In contrast to Emergent Moment, you don't have to do anything special to experience these. These scripted moments are part of the media below that everyone can see, but that doesn't make them any less special. These moments made us laugh, tear up, and reflect in 2025, and we want to share them with you. Note: Since some of our naming of the moments themselves could be considered a spoiler, listed…
The phrasing on this category was tricky. What is an Emergent Moment? Basically, it's to distinguish from a Narrative Moment- our category tomorrow. Rather than scripted, hand-tailored moments, these are moments that occur, or occurred , naturally as a result of the way things have been set up- either in a game or in the world. The Nominees Are: Baby's First Death Trap ( Android: Netrunner ) Tile…

But rest assured, these songs are JAMS. We had lots of music to choose from this year and it was harder for some to narrow it down. The Nominees Are: "BIRDBRAIN" w/ OK Glass Feat Kasane Teto by…
