This is definitely about the "Goddess Fall" incident.

For those that don't know:

Nikke were revered as the saviors of humanity, but after a catastrophic failure in a pivotal part of a war,
the human's perception of them changed from Heroes to Expendable tools.
They were treated as 3rd class citizens (at best),
and any human advocating for their rights were labeled as terrorists and subjected to persecution
200 Mass-produced Nikke decided to leave and build a home for themselves.
As they boarded an elevator to the surface, the government cut the power to stop them.
The elevator was 4km high when the power was cut and was now on a collision course.
The Nikke decided to save the humans below by sacrificing themselves by self-destructing and blowing up the elevator.

This is the reason why Nikke squads are 3 or less...

    The artist posted this on Christmas day. In Japan even more than in Western countries, Christmas is thought of as a couples' holiday. They also have the tradition of eating chicken for Christmas dinner. The implication here is that this girl is buying her Christmas dinner from a convenience store and she's embarrassed that the shopkeeper will be able to tell that she's single because she's only buying enough food for a single person.

    You could read into the situation more, but that's the basic gist.

    Almost reaching the point where posts can be added to the pool without having to worry about having to order anymore (cause there's no posts from previous years lol)

    Honestly looking forward to having at least one ohayoumu for every single day of the year.

    Seems like the results are out and Ghost-Half-chan was right: this year's kanji is ้‡‘. Apparently the reasoning is some bribery (่ฃ้‡‘) scandals, and Japan getting many gold medals in both the Olympics and Paralympics.

    And for the third time in five years. And it's during an Olympic year. Peter Payne of J-List is already criticizing the decision due to lack of originality.
