The Launch Trailer released today? Nice!
The Ice Apex and a new version of Rathalos? Exciting!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I will likely not do a breakdown of the trailer, sorry! Stay hyped, it’s gonna be one of the best Monster Hunter games!

I’m very busy these next two weeks, and I’m gonna be missing the final Open Beta Test.

Hope you all have fun!
Instead, I’ll be in Victoria BC at a convention, TsukinoCon, hosting some panels as I mentioned before.

When the game launches I’ll be working on proper analysis videos discussing the narrative and metaphors present in the full game. I have a feeling they really cooked on the story in this one.

See you all in the next video!

Upcoming Events!!!

Hey everyone!

I’m Canadian as some of you know, and here there are several local Japanese/Anime conventions that I regularly attend every year. I have plans to host Monster Hunter themed panels at these conventions. It will be a lecture discussion on Monster Hunter Lore, Headcanon, and Themes.

I have hosted panels at these conventions before that were not Monster Hunter themed; so far only the first convention in my list below has given me 100% confirmation I’m hosting. But I have no doubt the others will confirm in due time.

I also have plans to attend Brickfair Virginia in the United States. Obviously I won’t be hosting a Monster Hunter panel at a LEGO convention but I do plan on tabling with a few of my Monster Hunter builds.

I realize there will be very little audience overlap, very few of my supporters will be locals and thus very few of you will even consider attending these conventions to see me.

That being said, I plan on recording the panel lecture and posting it on my YouTube publicly.

List of local Canadian Conventions I will be attending this year 2025:

Tsukino-Con February - Victoria BC (Panel confirmed)

OtaFest May - Calgary Alberta

Animethon July - Edmonton Alberta

AniRevo August - Vancouver BC

And of course my one planned US visit:

Brickfair July - Virginia

Of course these plans are always subject to change, but as long as everything goes according to plan I will hopefully be seeing a few of you in person over the course of the year!
Thanks for all the continued support!

You can check out this exclusive video; a Monster Hunter edit/tribute/AMV I put together recently in preparation for convention season this year!

(It’s the opening video to set the mood for the panels. Unfortunately due to the song choice (it’s a song from the anime film Nausicaa) it cannot be uploaded to YouTube and Twitter prevents me from uploading the whole thing without paying Elon tax.)

I still intend on doing individual game reviews like I did for MH2 and MH4. I’ve been sitting on a script for MH1 for a while now!

More LEGO builds on the way, I just released Rey Dau and you should see a short on that soon. Shagaru Magala will release shortly as well!

How’s the Beta holding up for everyone’s PCs?

I will not be streaming it, I’ve been enjoying it on my own with a couple friends. It’s a phenomenal work and I’ll make a video consolidating my thoughts once it’s over.

Gotta apologize for not preparing a LEGO build of Rey Dau or Balahara in advance, I didn’t realize how awesome they would ultimately be. Stay tuned, this month is a slower one for me because I’m moving again, but I’ll be back on track in December with more content!

Happy Hunting!

The new trailer may not of hyped me directly, but the community reactions to it have really elevated my excitement!

We still have yet to see a returning monster but the Scarlet Forest seems perfect for many classic favourites to return so who knows!

I was actually in the middle of editing a video where I talk about how some monsters may struggle to ever return, like Yian Kutku, and seeing the new Cockatrice Brute Wyvern really killed his chances haha.
I know people are gonna really hope for Lagiacrus to come back with the water areas.

Eyewitness reports of Monster Hunter Wilds gameplay are surfacing fast and there’s way too much to digest.

I’m gonna let a lot of it simmer before I make a video covering my thoughts.

The biggest takeaway is somehow nearly EVERYTHING from my MH6 wishlist video is being added to Wilds so, yeah, I’m ☺️
