Whilst researching titles for my series of posts about anime heroines I came across this awesome website which compiles most, if not all of the Japanese releases for consoles both new and old. There are pictures and YouTube videos… descriptions but hey, a picture is worth a thousand words. Anyway I came across a arcade game with this Battle Athletes menu screen and I thought I recognised somebody.

Well, tomorrow sees the start of an intermittent series I mentioned not so long ago. I hope it goes well.
I tried to make a pun on The Unbearable Lightness of Being but my brain was too tired out…
