I felt terrible yesterday Internet, my whole body hurt and I had to fight off the urge to sob until I was somewhere alone. Today feels a little better, I'm not a %100 just yet but another project came in from Atlantic Records so I've got that. I'm gonna self medicate tonight with a bigass bowl a Trix, crappy beer (No need to associate good beer with awful feelings right Internet?), and twenty gigabytes of Japanese Giant Robot cartoons.
I'm gonna give you a crash course in bigass robot cartoons so get your massive sideburns and burning spirit ready. There are essentially two schools of giant robot animes, real and super. Real robots are typically rooted in actual science or at least pretend actual science. They're either gigantic and cumbersome or frail and nimble. At best they're going to realize there's such a thing as the laws of physics.
Super robots however ignore physics or reality all together, and they're a lot more fun. Expect them to have wild design motifs like being made out of Lion robots or something. They're usually powered by some esoteric power source and in some cases nothing but courage and sheer determination. I like these the best simply because it's kinda hard not to be inspired when the hero is spouting lines like "Courage turns %0 into %100!".
I'll talk about this later, I just realized I should never drink Mike's Hard Lemonade.
