NieR Automata Ver 1.1a First Cour ( A-1 Pictures, NieR Automata 2023 )  The Anime started airing on the 8th January of 2023 and ended on the 21th July of 2023.  After some production issues, A-1 Pictures was finally able to release all remaining episodes for the first cour* of the NieR Automata Anime (4 episodes total).  The release date for the 2nd cour is still TBA,  which will also be consisting of 12 episodes for a total of 24 episodes.  The Anime is based on the game NieR Automata, which released in 2017.  I only recently finished the game after taking several breaks inbetween game sessions (over the span of 4 years..).  Not because it is a bad game, but because of certain other games  that got in the way (*cough* Destiny 2 *cough*).  After I finished NieR Automata, I even picked up the NieR Replicant remaster (in 2023) and finished it in the same year.  So while I'm certainly no NieR expert, I experienced both games as much as I could.  * cour = part The First Batch (Episode

Welcome.

 Hello there. If you happen to stumble across this Blog, you might know me already.  I am that Aster1 guy from Twitter (or X, or whatever it is called at the point you are reading this). So, what can you expect from this place? Well, the short answer: Reviews (duh) Topics will be centred around Games and Anime (sometimes even live action shows) that left a certain impression on me, so don't expect that I'll cover all newly released games and shows.  I have no schedule or timeframe for reviews, so don't expect this to be thriving with posts all year long. (Only exception is if this becomes bigger and actual game devs are asking me to review stuff, haha yeah as if..) I think that should be good enough as an introduction, so I'll leave it at that.  The first review I'm working on will be about the NieR Automata 1.1a Anime that recently finished its first cour.  Have a nice day, wherever you are. - Aster1
