Need a large coin to play this Pacman game

I was cruising around Youtube and this ad from Bud Light came up prior to the main video.  I was going to skip the ad after 5 seconds but I recognized the (pacman) sound effect at the start of the video. Part of Bud Light's #Upforwhatever series of ads.


It takes 3 people to put this oversized coin into the giant arcade machine slot.

Due to what the ad is promoting, I will not embed the video into my blog just hop onto Youtube and type in  Real Life Pacman into the search box. Youtube Channel is Bud Light and the video has  just about 12 Million views. While I don't drink liquor the gaming content of the ad is really cool.  Probably going to see again come the Big Game.

Blood Lad episode 3 thoughts

The journey in the Demon world continues... Staz looking for a way to revive our female protagonist. We meet a new character, The metal-pipe wielding wolf demon. In his base form he reminds so much of that one Soul Society captain  from Bleach.  Except in street clothes and add bracer? armor on one arm.

 I couldn't stop myself from laughing when the "Taxi" of the demon world arrived on the scene. Probably my favorite part of this episode.

Hold off on watching Co-optitude episode 77 Due to Legend of Korra Season 4 spoilers


Co-Optitude is a Youtube web series where the Day siblings  play video and computer games  on a sofa. On the latest episode they Play Super Mario 3D World  with a guest. Legend of Korra voice actress, Janet Varney.  So hold off watching this video until after you finish Legend of Korra.


The spoiler happens within the first minute of the video so yeah. Both visual and oral spoiler so. At least the folks at Geek and Sundry put a spoiler warning on the  video info/details area.  As far as the actual gameplay goes. It's Mario, Luigi, and Princess Peach.

Blood Lad - Only 10 episodes, seen two so far


My main reason for watching this series is because of its short episode count  at a mere 10 episodes. A really odd number for a TV show, which has me quite wary of the fact that this Anime may possibly have no resolution at all! That would be terrible.  This number count would be more normal for an OVA series released over several Months. Makes me really wonder if this show didn't get good ratings in Japan or something...


I kind of like the male Protagonist Staz.  He's a vampire or some other type of blood sucking demon as he doesn't really catch fire or glow when exposed to Sunlight. His quirk is that he's a bit of a Anime/Gaming Fanboy. In episode two there's actually a part where Dragon Quest / Dragon Warrior 1 gets referenced.

Started Watching: Hi Scool Seha Girls

I got done watching the first episode of the show and it's actually kind of fun if you owned or know of Sega's gaming history before they stopped making Video Game consoles. I love how they introduce Dreamcast and go one my selling points is that I can access the Internet.

Sega DremCast girl reminds me way too much of the Space Channel Five protagonist. The first episode introduced only some of the personified Sega gaming consoles... DreamCast, Saturn, Mega Drive ( What Genesis is called in Japan and Europe.) Looks like the next Episode will be dealing with the fighting game Virtua Fighter. I owned this game on the PC. Akira and that Ninja dude were my preferred fighters.

So I pick a show from 2014 to start watching it's very Retro/Historical. One Down 12 more eps to go.

New Year Resolution 2015: Watch more Anime

Maybe I should clarify by stating that I should watch more recent Anime  because aside from watching the new Sailor Moon (Crystal) and  few first episodes from some 2014 shows I really didn't complete any  "Current Anime" shows at all. 

I mainly watched a few shows from 2013 and rewatched some of my personal favorites from years before. I recently finished watching Ramen/Noodle Fighter Miki. I will probably make another post about that show in a few days. 

A friend of mine did give me a recommendation for Akame ga Kill.  I don't know anything about the show and all my friend really said about the show is that I may find it quite confusing at points.
