I think I say this for every update, but it’s been a busy month! Sadly, I had to say goodbye to my 16-year-old cat, Eevee, because of liver failure. It’s been a rough year as she’s not the only family member we’ve lost. I’m thankful I have caring family and friends during these hard times, though.
Speaking of loss, it was also sad to see Junko Hori’s passing. She was the voice of Akuma (aka Beezle) from the first Unico film. I took a little time to read up on her life and it’s always fascinating to learn about people.
If you celebrated Thanksgiving this month (United States), hope you had a wonderful holiday! My kids are always excited about the variety of food we eat, so I make all kinds of food. Of course, you’ll find me standing near the deviled eggs almost always. Those poor eggs didn’t stand a chance!
But enough about food!
Here are the updates I was able to complete.
– Updated The Sphinxes of Unico post I wrote back in January 2023. I normally don’t go back to edit older posts, but felt the need to add and edit aspects of the post so I don’t need to rewrite a whole new one. Added the “Spotlight” wording in front of the title. Most of my newer editorial posts use that term to highlight what kind of post it’ll be. Made minor edits to wording, fixed sub-heading sizes, fixed spacing, updated the section talking about Pink Lady, added an image of Marusu from Unico: Awakening, and fixed any link errors.
– Updated Piro/Marusu’s character page with more information from Unico: Awakening.
– Updated some translations around the site.
– Added placeholder for the MOE magazine that features an article on Unico: Awakening to the Articles and Interviews section. I should receive the magazine soon and will share what’s in it. Since this is a newer publication, I’m always leary on providing fan translations, so I’ll most likely summarize instead.
– Added the hand towel that was available during the HIROMAN’S COFFEE x Unico Cafe event. You’ll find more information in the Household Items section.
– Added the Bic Ballpoint Pen of Unico to the Pencils, Pens, and Stamps page. It’ll be at the bottom of the page.
