Neptunia Virtual Stars – Review | A Nep Letter to VTubers
I have a problem, one which I think I should share with you all… I am obsessed with the Neptunia franchise. Why is that? I’d say it’s the same reason I like Super Smash Brothers; it’s a love letter to gaming’s history! It’s not just that though; it also has a tongue-in-cheek sense of humor […]

ENDER LILIES: Quietus of the Knights – Review
