18 days left until Christmas 📆

On Saturday and Sunday, I preferred to rest instead of swimming and going to the gym, I really needed to sleep longer. It was a tough and exhausting week. I'm thinking about taking a break from the regular posting schedule of the Diary and from other social networks I use, a sort of internet break for one or two weeks, maybe during the last week of this month and next month in 2026.

Boku no Hero, second to last episode, all the loose ends are being tied up. It's a shame there wasn't a more romantic atmosphere between the two of them in the end... The last episode seems like it will introduce a problematic character. I don't remember who uses those powers at the end of the episode.

To Your Eternity, finally the weird arc is over, now the episode got really interesting. The Nokker actually acted on its own will to influence Mizuha since her childhood rather than her having an attraction to Fushi. I'm glad Fushi is going to face them, although the preview for the next episode suggests he's weak.

Spy x Family, today's episode was one to laugh at, without any progression of the main story. But it seems things will heat up again judging by the preview for the next episode.

Gnosia, as I thought last week, we had the perspective of a Gnosia, but there was no explanation of what they are. However, it seems to be a way for him to better fill in the information of that living AI inside him and Setsu.

I managed to get back to making 2 sprites per day instead of 1.

People4_5, the Minister, this one seems like he could play a villain or traitor to the king in the game. The design I made, trying to stay faithful to the Face/Bust, doesn't include the vest, just that detail near the neck that I don't know how to describe or what to call that piece of clothing. Even though the arms are thin, I tried to give volume to his belly and waist by arranging the pixels in an oval shape in the stomach area. I don't think these could be different characters like in some earlier Character designs.

People4_6, the Butler, this now looks like two different characters, the first design seems like a serious and strict Butler with more sophisticated clothing, while the second design seems like a friendlier, more approachable Butler who accept your silly jokes so you won't feel uncomfortable. When I think of Butlers in battles, I immediately think of Walter from Hellsing, using wires or threads to slice enemies apart. Talking about him made me nostalgic for the anime now...
