Ripe for the Picking (2024) [/] Japanese drama of 9 20-minute episodes. 32-year old office worker Kosaka Maiko (Kusumi Koharu) is a virgin and wants to finally have sex but is finding it hard to find a nice partner until she meets IT contractor Kagiya Senri (Sato Taiki). They start a bit of a friendship over Pac-Man but both have small issues that lead to misunderstandings. Meanwhile we also have three other subplots with Maiko's co-workers: a mom who is a manga artist as paying hobby but her work is suffering due to family issues, a workaholic who is ignoring her boyfriend and straining the relationship, a part-timer who thinks she's ugly and finds a good-looking date that's too good to be true. Overall a nice short series that gets a lot of material in with a sexy sex scene near the end.

Fabulous - Wedding Disaster+ (2024) [/] This is basically one of those restaurant games where customers come in, say what they want, you click on the items they ordered then deliver it to them, take their cash, clean up afterwards. The theme is a wedding dress shop where you are also an aspiring designer so in between orders there is a design task you do. Fairly typical of the genre and it's developed by Gamehouse who are not known for novelty.

Summer Pop!+ (2024) [/] Match-3 Candy Crush sort of game with cute animals. It's fine for what it is.

Girls Next Door podcast (2025) [/] Actress/Model Wallis Day and her best friend Francesca Allen do a girls talk podcast sometimes with guests. I guess it's more about their lives and celebrity gossip than anything serious. They're both British and I do have a hard time telling them apart -- I think I got it down to Francesca has a bit more energy and loudness. It's kind of pleasant.
