Very Excited To See More Acolyte Merch, And We're Finally Getting Our First Official "figure" Of The

Been rereading Path of Deceit and I forgot how much I love this book. There’s something so thrilling about seeing the force through the eyes of Marda & the Path of the Open Hand. It really is suspenseful and as the story progresses throughout phase 2 the cult really gets more and more terrifying.

A midsummer sequel portrayal of the force in Star Wars really is gratifying.

Plus seeing such open queer representation in Star Wars and the tragedy between Marda/Kevmo & Yana/Kor. I’ll never be over them, living rent free in my head at all times

Happy May the Fourth!!! I hope everyone is doing well during these insane times we’re living in lol. We got the new “Tales of the Underworld” today and it was an overall good experience. I’d say that I enjoyed Tales of the Empire/Jedi more but it was still pretty good.

First up the the Asajj Ventress story, overall I’d give it a 8/10. Seeing her break out of her old habits and grow to be a better mentor/eventual Jedi was nice and I really think it layed the groundwork well for her story moving forward.

Lyco was a cool addition and his dynamic with ventress was fun, reminded me of Ahsoka’s rapport with Asajj during the Clone Wars. The Native/Non-Binary rep was also great, really cool seeing people like me in the Star Wars Universe.

Oh- and Quinlon’s new model was GORGEOUS and in begging lucasfilm to use him more in the Maul show.

I’m also a HUGE inquisitor fan so seeing the new inquisitor actually put up a fight in EP 1 was cool to see. I feel like they’ve learned there lesson and really allowed him to shine. I’m hoping that he gets more development in the future and it won’t take years for him to get an official designation.

He’s lowkey the strongest inquisitor after the Grand Inquisitor if you think about it. I think Marrok, Trilla, and Iskat. are the only ones that really compare.

The Cade Bane story was cool, not exactly something I feel like we “needed” but it gave a nice backstory for him that we probably wouldn’t have been able to get anywhere else. Which really should be the point of the “Tales-Of” series.

His story was tragic but I see how his choices really pushed him into the person he became. He had a rough past but he choose to became the monster he is today. I really enjoyed his friend and connected with him and the twist at the end I absolutely DID NOT see coming. I really hope we see Bane’s son in the future somehow. I could see him returning in Maul’s new show.

Overall it was a good time and I’ve really enjoyed the tradition of having either Visions/Tale-Of every year for May the 4th. I’m looking forward to how all the loose ends from Tales of the Empire, Bad Batch, and Jedi-Fallen Order series all tie in moving forward.

So, I’m very excited for the new Kylo Ren/Ben Solo comic and to see what he was up to between TLJ and TROS. There’s a lot of room to explore his mindset during this year; seeing how we felt about Rey, Luke's death, and his place in the galaxy/First Order.

It’s come out that Kylo will be hunting down a survivor of Order-66 in this comic *Just 1 not a whole group* and I wanted to throw my hat in the ring and guess which Jedi that It will be and rank the likelihood of them appearing.

As a Prelude: I’m okay with there still being a few Jedi around during this era. In Legends there were Jedi that survived from the prequels well past Luke and George Lucas himself had plans of incorporating them into a potential sequel trilogy.

Also- who knows if it’ll be an actual Jedi that we’ve met. It could be a brand new jedi or a force sensitive who survived the galactic purge. With that said, let's get started!

Coleman Kcaj- One of the last surviving members of the Jedi High Council, we know that Kcaj had survived Order-66 and went into hiding. He was a high priority target for the Inquisitor but to our knowledge was never found. He’s only been a background character at this point so it would be nice to give him some spotlight. 6/10

Oppo Rancisis- Another member of the High Council that’s served on the council since the High Republic, it would be nice to find out what happened to him. My only hesitation is that he's been mentioned in Jedi: Survivor and it may be more likely that we see him appear in the 3rd game instead. 4/10

Lyn Rackish (4th Sister)- At the end of TOTE Lyn left the Empire behind, rejoining Barriss in the light and attempting to save her life. I assume she may have joined the Hidden Path and aided in saving other force sedatives. Seeing a former darksider who;s joined the light could offer some good story beats for Kylo. 7/10

Quinlan Vos- A powerful and popular Jedi master, fans have been clambering to see Quinlan make his grand return to Canon. As much as i would love to see him again I find it more likely that we see him appear in a hidden path show or comic will Ventress. 2/10

Tsui Choi- a Aleen Jedi who appeared in multiple Legends comics, he survived Order-66 and aided a group of Jedi to assassinate Darth Vader. He hasn’t appeared in Canon yet and it could be a nice spotlight for him. 6/10

Gungi- A Jedi youngling who we saw grow as a jedi in the Clone Wars, he befriended the Bad Batch after Order-66 and went to live on his home planet. Gungi (or any other of the young;ings) would be nice to see again but this doesn’t feel like the right medium for that. 1/10

Reva Sevander (3rd Sister)- My top pick to appear and meet Ben tbh. She’d be quite old at this point but there are so many lessons I think Kylo could learn from her. They both have a direct link to Vader and learn to grow past their darkness. Give her a white lightsaber PLEASE! 7/10

Sha Koon- A keldor Jedi Knight & the niece of Plo Koon, Sha managed to survive Vader’s attack on the Temple and went into hiding. Later trying to assassinate Vader in an attempt to cripple the new regime. It would be a nice way to introduce her into canon and there could be potential for future stories down the line. 5/10

Bultar Swan- We haven’t seen much of Bultar Swan in canon. She briefly appears in AOTC and we know Plo Koon finished her training after her master's death. In legends she’s another survivor of Order-66 that goes on to face Vader and it would be nice to see her make a full return to canon storytelling. 6/10

I will forever defend Wraith Arc and I wanted to expand on my thoughts for a labyrinth for Magia Exedra.

Obviously the wraiths would be basic enemies and, as we work through each level the wraiths level up as well. We could start fighting the basic wraith, then acolyte wraiths-Enlightenment Wraiths-Deliverance Wraiths. The final boss of the level could be the Spindle Witch.

We’ve never gotten to see the spindle witch in color and that’s a fucking crime. Suleika looks SO GOOD in the game and I think the spindle witch deserves that some treatment.

They should run a Kioku banner for Bow-Homura and Wraith-Madoka “Wraithdoka”. For Homura I’m think she should remain as a dark-attribute attacker but with a different skill. And Wraith Madoka should be a Void-attribute debuffer. Those seem like the best options in my opinion but feel free to disagree.

I finally got a a hard copy of Wraith Arc and rereading it has me excited for the potential for finally seeing it appear and hey, I didn’t make it to Magia Record so here’s our chance!

Recently finished S3 of Castelvania and goddamn is it a hit to the gut. The season started out with a more hopeful, cheerful tone and then the last 3 episodes really go for the jugular. I’m very excited to see where these characters end up in season 4.

Trevor & Sypha are more traumatized than ever. Sypha especially, having experienced this level of trauma for the first time *potentially* and Trevor regressing into his old ways of thinking

Alucard is feeling used, alone, and vengeful. Trying to make friends and striving to be like his mom and then getting used while the most vulnerable.

Hector is a slave/pet. The one thing he understood and tried to push humanity into he himself has become.

Issac is the only one to have come out winning this season, being such a great representation of a morally grey poc character. I’m honestly rooting for him tbh

🚨 A Voice from Gaza: Please Hear Us 🚨

My name is Abdelmajed Elderawi, and I am writing to you from Gaza, where life has become an unimaginable struggle. Our days are filled with uncertainty, and the hope for a better future feels like a distant dream.

The war has left deep scars on my family and me. We’ve endured the heartbreaking loss of 25 loved ones—each one a light extinguished too soon. Their absence is a pain I carry every day, and I often find myself lost in memories of the laughter and joy they brought into our lives.

Life in Gaza Today: 💔 Overwhelming Loss: The pain of losing so many family members is impossible to describe. 🍽️ Barely Getting By: Even basic necessities like food and water are becoming harder to afford. 🏠 No Safe Shelter: Our homes, once our refuge, now feel fragile and unsafe. 📚 Dreams on Hold: The pursuit of education and opportunities has been replaced by the constant fight for survival.

What We Need: In these desperate times, even a small gesture can mean so much. A $5 donation could provide us with food or water for a day. If you can’t donate, simply sharing our story could help us reach someone who can.

Your Support Gives Us Hope: This isn’t just about financial help—it’s about knowing that someone, somewhere, cares. Your kindness can be a source of strength for us, a reminder that we’re not alone in this fight.

How You Can Help: 🙏 Donate if you can. 🙏 Share this post to spread the word. 🙏 Keep us in your thoughts and prayers.

I’m not asking for much—just a little hope, a little relief, and a chance to keep moving forward. Your generosity, in any form, can make a difference in ways you might not even imagine.

Thank you for taking the time to hear my story. Your kindness means more than words can express.

With heartfelt gratitude, Abdelmajed ❤️

Just finished season 4 of Castlevania and I have some thoughts

Overall, the ending was solid and I’m happy to see that Trevor, Sypha, and Alucard could live together and build a better future together. That part was sweet and definitely served as the best part of the entire season for me

I really wish Carmilla had a better ending, she fought a horde of night creatures and Issac and nobody could take her down individually. They had built up her plan for so long and to see it come crashing down like that was a disappointment

It felt like the carmilla’s takeover and Dracula resurrection storylines where competing for screen time and should have had a few more episodes to breath.

I love what they did with Issac this season and seeing him grow to understand humanity and want to build a better future was nice. Seeing Death was nice I just wished they’d built it up a bit more.

Overall it was a good season that kind of meandered a bit. The animation was gorgeous as always and the ending was beautiful. Looking forward to Nocturne

I’ve really been loving Madoka Magia Exedra and I can’t wait for future events. I never got the opportunity to play Magia Record 😭 but this game has been so much fun. I genuinely log in every day to play a level, event, and earn supplies. The Gacha system is admittedly evil but Im thankful with how lucky I’ve been.

I got a free Mami off the daily free Madokami pull!!!

With the rumored Doppel-Iroha on the way *which I’m hyped for* I think this opens the door for a lot of fun characters. Obviously all characters with Doppels could have new kioku but the game could really do something special for Candeloro & Ophelia.

They could release labyrinths for these two witches at the same time they release the Doppel Mami/Kyoko banners. We never got them as bosses for Magia Record so it would be nice to bring them back from the PSP game. Imagine exploring these areas, it would be breathtaking for sure!

On that note, I’m hoping that we get a new labyrinth when they release Mabayu instead of an event but that’s just me.

I’m hoping for a lot of hype when the Rebellion story gets released as well.

ALSO- while im here, i really hope wraith arc gets some love. Getting o fight wraiths for the first time, Bow-Homura Kioku, wraith-Madoka, what more could you want!?

Look at how incredible this is! I cannot wait to get this in person and actually read it. I know that the audio book is also going to go so hard *just like they all do*

Plus it’s going to be 500+ pages…..we are so not ready for what this book is about to bring. With everything, I know it’s gonna be a rollercoaster from start to finish.

I’ve been keeping up with the High Republic since it was first announced and seeing these characters grow and change has been such an emotional/fulfilling journey. It’s gunna be hard to say goodbye to these characters for awhile. I’m gunna miss em so much. Avar, Elzar, Stellan, Vernestra, Marchion, Bell, Keevee, Xylan Graff, Marda, Kevmo, Loden, Imri, and Gavi all of you will have my heart forever 🫶🏽🫶🏽😭

If Ash ever comes back in the anime I hope that he’s 1) Aged up with the time skip and 2) I think he deserves a new team to celebrate.

I would want him to be a mentor figure for Liko, Roy, and Dot. A sort of older brother figure and obstacle for them to overcome. He’s sort of their “Leon” and could fill the role of Juliana/Florian from the games. Due to the show taking place after the events of the game we can say that Ash already traveled through Paldea. If so, here’s the team I would give him.

1) Pikachu- Goes without saying, would love to see him face Cap

2) koraidon- He traveled with him while going around Paldea and is his “boss” legendary. Similar to Liko’s Terapagos and Roy’s “assumed” Rayquaza.

3) Dudunspace (3-segment) Ash has never been able to catch a dunsparce, and what better that to give him the rare 3-segment form to show what the world champion can do. The sleep “rowlet” type Pokemon of the team.

4) Annihilape- I imagine we went back and found his old Primeape, evolving it into a beast of a fighter.

5) Ogerpon- Ash experienced the events of the DLC, having a rivalry with Kieran over Ogerpon choosing to travel with Ash. She’s sweet and offers an adorable factor to the team.

6) Mega Lucario- the only other returning Pokemon, Ash’s lucario can serve as a mentor to Roy’s shiny lucario.
