Tobidase! Bacchiri




Based on the manga by Mitsuteru Okamoto, Tobidase! Bacchiri is a 1966 anime produced by Nippon TV Video, an animation studio that would later make the 1973 Doraemon anime. The show was dubbed in Italian as Il Piccolo Detective, which played the song Johnny Bassotto by Lino Toffolo for its theme song.


The main cast of characters consisted of Bacchiri, the titular young detective boy who solves crimes in various ways, Chibisu, an officer dressed in blue who tends to shrink in size, Gappori, a man dressed in green who's the president of his own detective agency, Benko, a green bird, and Roba, a donkey.

Crappy Games Wiki Archive



Crappy Games Wiki was one of several reception wikis powered by Miraheze. It was basically a catalogue of games that were poorly received, detailing the pros and cons of them.

 

As of 2022, it needed to be shut down (hopefully temporarily).


I enjoyed reading several articles on the Wiki. Here's a selection of links archived via Wayback Machine, including some of my favorite articles that were on the wiki:

My iPhone 7 is back!

 




Since I can't access my Apple account or post on Instagram on Desktop as of now, I decided to make a blog post here. I sent my iPhone 7 for repair service at Geek Squad, to get its battery replaced. I heard that as of this year, the iPhone 7 is the earliest model that Apple still supports. Geek Squad needed to send my iPhone to Apple themselves. It took 2 weeks to get the iPhone shipped, replaced and shipped back to Best Buy. My iPhone 7's previous battery lasted for 4 years before it eventually died.
