My paintings of the Seven Deadly Sins characters

So, like I said in my last entry, I wanted to use these few entries to show my paintings of new anime I've been getting into recently and my next one is an anime I've been watching exclusively on Netflix, the Seven Deadly Sins. I wanted to get into for a long while and I'm almost done it, and so, I decided to do my next set of paintings based on some of the characters. I recommend watching the series if you haven't already because it's so good and it has some of the best writing I've seen in an anime in a while. It's even got quite a few really shocking moments and it's got some of the best comedy I've seen in an anime in a long time. And so, here they are and I hope you all like these.

My paintings of Hunter x Hunter characters

So, something I've been doing a lot lately is checking out a ton of different and new anime I've never seen before and I'm hoping to do similar to this for the next few entries with showing paintings of different anime I've been watching more of. And starting us off is Hunter x Hunter, which is another anime I've been wanting to see for a while and I've been watching a good amount of it for the past few weeks. And, so, I decided to start this small series of new anime paintings off with it. And so, let's get started and I hope you all like this.

Kingdom Hearts 3: Re:Mind DLC trailer

So the Kingdom Hearts 3 DLC trailer has finally been released and this trailer looks insane and awesome already. And apparently it actually has a name of its own. It's gonna be called Kingdom Hearts 3: Re:Mind. And the main thing I love in this, beyond the fact that it is amazing, is the fact that some of the things I wanted to see are being included like more Keyblades, which we see because, now, Sora has the Oathkeeper Key back, and we're getting more playable characters, we actually get to play as Roxas. And it looks like we might be able to play the bosses as well and it looks like we can either choose who we want to be, or we can switch from one character to another. Either way, this trailer looks amazing and I can't wait for this winter because that's when it says it's coming.

My top 10 minigames in Kingdom Hearts

Like any other video game out there, Kingdom Hearts has had its share of minigames in the various games and I have a lot of fun with a lot of these. And there's a huge variety of different ones. I'll explain those different ones when I show them, but, for the list itself, I'm gonna talk about my favourites based on how much I enjoyed them and had fun I had with them. And so, let's get into this and I hope you all like this.
10. Ice Cream Beat:

Starting us off at number 10 is one of the three Disney Town games in Birth By Sleep. While the other two are good too, my favourite of them all is the Ice Cream Beat game where you sit on this ice cream making machine and you have to hit the button at the right time to shoot the ice cream on Huey, Dewey and Louie's cones. And you go along with existing themes of songs like It's A Small World. And it's a lot of fun to do that and especially when you're trying to beat your record.
9. Poster Duty:
Poster Duty
Another one from a list of ones just like this one, this is a job you can do in Twilight Town in Kingdom Hearts 2. When in Twilight Town in Kingdom Hearts 2, you see these posters up that talk about doing a job to earn money, or "munny" as they pronounce it. The first time you can do these is as Roxas as you're gathering enough to get on a train, but then you can do them whenever you want as Sora too. And my favourite is Poster Duty where you have to run around the main town and slap posters for the Struggle on the walls that have a golden square on it.
8. A Blustery Rescue:

Every time you've gone to the 100 Acre Wood, you've only ever done minigames and some have been really fun to do, and my favourite out of all of them is A Blustery Rescue in Kingdom Hearts 2. After Piglet is carried away by the wind, Sora and Pooh have to grab onto a balloon and float around to save him, all the while a ton of objects are going around trying to hit you like trees, rocks and honey pots.
7. Little Chef's Bistro:

Kingdom Hearts 3 was especially full of different minigames in its worlds and the first one on here is Little Chef's Bistro. This is in Twilight Town when go to Uncle Scrooge's bistro where Remy controls Sora and you select the food you want to make from a menu and do different routines to prepare different food. And that's a lot of fun,. I've seen videos online of people feeling frustrated because of the egg one. That's actually kinda funny, but I like all of them and I like how the more you progress, you get more stars for the bistro.
6. Verum Rex:
This was something that was an ad in the first cutscene of the Toy Box when you went there in Kingdom Hearts 3. You see Rex and Hamm watching it on TV and then Young Xehanort blasts Sora into another TV at Galaxy Toys and you have to play along in order to get Sora out. And you get to control these huge mechs called Gigas. And all that is fun to do, especially when you destroy the generators and destroy a whole bunch of different Gigas around you. And it's made all the more challenging when the Prime comes out at the end.
5. Flash Tracer:

In San Fransokyo in Kingdom Hearts 3, Hiro and Fred suggest doing training and so you do this course where you run through coloured rings and do different moves to go through them, which include running, jumping, grinding on rails and rolling on a huge ball. And I like how Sora does all these fast moves to go through them and it's cool the way the members of Big Hero 6 interact with you the first time and especially when Hiro is talking to you every time. And you even do a dive at a few instances to get to some of them.
4. Strawberry Flan:

For some of the ingredients you could get in Kingdom Hearts 3, you needed to do minigames with these Heartless called Flans, which had some sort of fruit associated with them. And you'd do these different games and you'd need a certain amount of points to win. And my personal favourite is when you're in the Toy Box and you have to use a cup ride to gather a bunch of them together and stack them all on top of you. And that's really fun to do, especially when you get more and more and your stack gets taller and taller.
3. Frozen Slider:

This is, in my opinion, one of the more frustrating minigames in Kingdom Hearts, but also one of the most fun. When Sora, Donald and Goofy are sent falling down a mountain, they use Goofy's shield to ride the way down. And then you can do it again after the world's story is done to do it all over again to get points and gain treasures. And there lies the fun and frustration. Some of these treasures are really hard to find and obtain. But it's really satisfying when you get them all and you even get an Oricchalcum + if you get them all.
2. Festival Dance:
Coming in close to number 1 is a minigame that I feel could have been really weird and really stupid, which you could say it is at a few points, but it's still pretty cool. At the Kingdom Of Corona, Sora is able to join in on the dance that the kingdom is having with its festival and you do various moves with people. And there are these circles on the ground that you have to do moves on and they depend on what colour they are. I guess you could also say it depends on what console you're playing on, but, in terms of the PS4, you can see the circles be red, blue and pink and you press the button that has the same colour as it and it all combinates in a move called the Sunwheel where all the people are in a circle with Sora in the lead trying to do as many moves as you can and then the ending is him doing a hi-5 with Rapunzel. And that's all really fun to do and I like seeing people's reactions on YouTube when they first see this.
And my number 1 favourite minigame in Kingdom Hearts is... The Underdrome:
And finally at number 1 is he tournament-like minigame from Kingdom Hearts 2, the Underdrome. I know something like this was in the first Kingdom Hearts with the different tournaments and cups, but I much preferred it in Kingdom Hearts 2. Not only because I thought it was more fun, but I also loved how there was more to it besides fighting enemies, which I know was the main part, but there was more to it with how sometimes you had to level different things up to play different parts of it like the Paradox version when you spoke to Hades. You'd have yo level up all of the Drive Forms and Summons to do some because they were the ones you could do in that cup. And the more you tear through enemies, the more fun it is. And I like fighting the different bosses you encounter at the end of each one too, mainly the Final Fantasy characters. And with the last one on the Paradox cups, there's 50 rounds to it appose to the normal 10. It's more fun and satisfactory the more you go. And there's even another thing like this in Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep with the Mirage Arena. And all that is why the Underdrome is my favourite minigame in Kingdom Hearts. And so, everyone, those are my pics for my top 10 minigames in Kingdom Hearts. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think or, if you like Kingdom Hearts, please tell me your favourite minigame.
