Right in the cocoa-ro ❤️🍫

I haven’t seen anyone mention this, but rise Donnie seems to be the most romantically inclined judging by how unabashedly he talks about his crushes and his “type.”

Leo is seemingly super romance-averse and even disgusted but still pertains some interest in being a dad?? It’s mentioned like twice lol

Donnie eventually gets an entire dad-coded episode with Sheldon though. So.

Metro Man was not loved growing up in a way that mattered. His adopted father was clearly very absent, and while we don't know much about his family, their relationship seems superficial. Because of this, his sense of duty to the world is also superficial, hence his boredom.

Hal wasn't raised with power. He gained it and was shown how to use it by a 'space dad' who only taught him power and not love. Hence, he sees it only as a grasping means to an end.

this used to be a common knowledge

Some nights even filling up the kettle and setting an empty mug out for my morning tea felt hard. But I was always thankful for it in the morning.

Other nights, one thing would lead to another, and I’d wake up in a clean house with everything ready to go.

And, on a rare few nights, the one thing that I could do to make my morning easier was going straight to bed and allowing myself to rest.

Fans of Slayers have a new collectible to add to their wish lists.

The figure is based on the specially illustrated artwork created for the Slayers 35th Anniversary Exhibition and aims to bring the iconic heroine to life in impressive detail.

The non-scale figure faithfully recreates Lina’s energetic personality, capturing the spirited expression and dynamic pose that have made her one of anime and light novel fandom’s most recognizable protagonists. The design is directly inspired by an illustration from original artist Rui Araizumi, ensuring a high level of authenticity for longtime fans.

Standing at approximately 160mm tall, the figure balances display-friendly dimensions with premium sculpting and paintwork. KADOKAWA’s KDcolle line emphasized both accessibility and high-quality craftsmanship, with particular attention paid to Lina’s signature shoulder armor and the intricate Demon’s Blood Talismans that accompany her design.

The figure commemorates the 35th anniversary of the Slayers franchise, which first debuted as a light novel series by Hajime Kanzaka before expanding into manga, anime adaptations, and a wide range of merchandise. The anniversary exhibition has served as a centerpiece celebration for the franchise, featuring exclusive artwork and commemorative products honoring its decades-long popularity.
