#LegendofZeldaGanonBattleTips

  

             Just last Friday, I beat my very first Legend of Zelda game Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past.  Hours after crawling through dungeons and slashing my way through enemies I finally beat the game.  It was on Friday that I defeated the very last boss, Ganon.

            Moldorm may have been one of the tougher bosses in the game, but Ganon was no joke.  Ganon has four different waves that will make your life difficult (with each wave being tougher than the last).  Even still, Ganon can be defeated in the end.           

            There are some helpful tips for getting through each wave.  Here is the breakdown of what’s to expect in battle:

Ganon Wave #1

            Once you first drop into the hole, immediately slash Ganon before he starts to talk.  After he stops talking, Ganon will hurl his trident around.  Avoid the trident and slash him repeatedly.  The trident moves in a circular motion each time.

Ganon Wave #2

            Ganon will then summon Blazing Bats that will fly over to Link.  They will go off one-by-one in a particular order, so watch for when they start heading towards you.  Continue slashing away at him while avoiding the bats.

Ganon Wave #3

            At this wave, Ganon will stomp on the floor and the outer tiles will start disappearing.  If you fall off during this or the next wave, you’ll have to walk back into battle and start over again.  Stay in the middle of the tile and avoid the blazing bat that comes your way.  Slash him until all four sides have missing tiles.

Ganon Wave #4

            After four hits, Ganon will cause two torches to go out.  This will take some serious multitasking skills to get through as you’ll have to light the torches, slash Ganon, switch to the arrows, and then hit him with the Silver Arrows (all while avoiding the blazing bat and not falling).  Light the two torches and wait for Ganon to get close.  Slash him first, switch to the Silver Arrows, then shoot one right when he is still stunned.  Shoot him four times to defeat Ganon.

#SouthParqVaccinationSpecial

           

Last Fall, millions of audiences got exactly what they needed to cope during these crazy times – ‘The Pandemic Special’ episode of South Park.  This hilarious South Park episode took on the insanity of masks, social distancing, lockdowns, and it even featured a shocking scene involving Randy Marsh with a pangolin.  South Park still managed to be hysterical while showcasing the reality of what we are all facing today. 

            If you thought that South Park pandemic special was great and was hoping there will be another one like it, then I have some GREAT news for you.

            Another South Park pandemic special titled ‘South Parq the Vaccination Special’ will be coming on March 10th.  It will be an hour-long episode like the previous pandemic special.  The description for the episode is ‘The citizens of South Parq are clamoring for the COVID-19 vaccine.  A hilarious new militant group tries to stop the boys from getting their teacher vaccinated’.  The ‘q’ may hint that South Park will delve into the infamous political group QAnon.

            More than five months since the first pandemic special and South Park will be airing yet another one in just a few weeks.  South Park really nailed it with their first pandemic special.  In fact, the hourlong special was the highest-rated episode in seven years.  Everyone really needed a good laugh after seeing businesses locked down and chin diapers everywhere.

            With that, South Parq the Vaccination Special will be released on March 10^th.  It will be intriguing to see how the citizens of South Park handle the vaccine roll-out. 

#HBOMaxAdultAnimatedSeriesAnnouncements

 

           Adult-animated series have been entertaining adult audiences since the late 20^th century.  They started on the cable network with shows like The Simpsons and Beavis and Butthead.  Netflix became a trending streaming service decades later with their hit animated series like BoJack Horseman, Big Mouth, Tuca & Bertie, and Disenchantment.  As more adult-animated series became popular on the cable network, they ended up landing in other streaming services.

            Even in 2021, adult-animated series still hasn’t gone out of style.  Netflix still has plans for their adult cartoons.  The latest news comes from the ever-growing streaming service, HBO Max.

            HBO Max announced plans for three adult animated series.  One of these projects is a Scooby-Doo spinoff revolving around the story of Velma Dinkley.  It will tell the complex and colorful tale behind Velma, the underappreciated brains behind the Scooby-Doo Mystery Inc. gang.

            The other plan HBO Max has is to revive the MTV hit series Clone High.  Clone High has already been ordered for two season and will be a reimagining of the 2002 series set in a high school for clones of historical figures.

            One last new series that is set to release is Fired on Mars, a workplace comedy set on the Martian campus of a modern tech company.  Pete Davidson from Saturday Night Live will be voicing one of the characters.

            These are just three of a few titles coming to HBO Max.  More series are set to be released in the near future.

            It’s amazing to see how far adult-animated series have come over the years.  All adult animated TV series, both old and new, still finds its way to entertain all adult audiences.  Streaming services like HBO Max continue to carry the torch of incredible animated series aimed for adults only. 

            Here we are in 2021 and adult-animated series continue to be a dominating genre of television.  We’ve come so far since shows like Aeon Flux and Beavis and Butthead first made their way into MTV.  Nowadays there are all kinds of adult-animated series.

            Even as television continues to evolve, there will always be animated series created for adults.
