Mondjuk ilyen harmadosztályú ereklyék, de megfázásra biztos jó lesz. Benedek is van benne, úgyhogy lehet ördögűzésre is oké (+ vámpírok ellen alap).

I've been slowly trying to finish this ref for weeks because I kept getting stumped on it, but finally here is Lord S, Nightmare candy maker and bootleg willy wonka

A scientist at heart with a special interest in making desserts of all kinds, he's a reclusive Nightmaren with one of the highest Ideya harvesting outputs in all of Nightmare. He's not necessarily loyal to Wizeman, but he allies himself with whoever will allow him to do his work uninterrupted. So he pulls in massive amounts of ideya for Wizeman in exchange for the god letting him be his mad candy scientist self and be holed up in his factory for days on end.

There's a very funny exchange I've had in my head where people have to go tell him Wizeman has been overthrown because he had no idea there was a war going on lol

Lord S is actually a pretty nice to talk to if ever given the chance! It's hard to catch him on days he isn't completely hyperfocused on his work. He's more than happy to talk the day away about chemistry, culinary science, and sweets of all kinds

He also creates his own third classes that operate as the extra workers in his factory!

He's one of the only Nightmaren who has permission to make their own third class minions, since Wizeman gives him a lot of leniency in return for his exceptional work.

When the Titanic brushed by, several tons of ice crumbled off the berg and landed on the starboard well deck just opposite the foremast. This was Third Class recreation space, and the ice was soon discovered by steerage passengers coming up to investigate. From her cabin window on B Deck, Mrs. Natalie Wick watched them playfully throwing chunks at each other.

Night on the Galactic Railroad 銀河鉄道の夜

We’re back! I try to update as often as I can, but my work schedule is super wonky and I don’t have as much time as I’d like.  It’s time for our first recommended anime, so let’s get this review rolling!  

A few days ago, @bishoujo-world-order​ recommended that I watch Night on the Galactic Railroad.  Having no real idea of what I wanted to review this week, I was happy for someone to save me from my indecision and choose for me.

Directed by Gisaburo Sugii, and based on a novel of the same title by Kenji Miyazawa, Night on the Galactic Railroad is about two kittens who go on a metaphysical journey on a magical railroad train.  

I was a little disappointed.  I was very excited going into the film.  With a title that has the word “railroad” in it, I thought there was no way it could be bad. Alas, despite its title, there was very little train shown in the film.  The exterior of the Galactic Railroad gets less than 15 minutes of screen-time, and while there are plenty of shots of the interior of the train cars, they don’t clearly show that the main characters are on a train.  The failure to emphasize the namesake train denies Night on the Galactic Railroad a Silver and instead earns it a Bronze Medal.

A bronze medal means I haven’t got a lot to work with, but the interior of the train cars get quite a bit of screen-time, so lets talk about those. 

By the looks of it, these are your standard Third Class Passenger Coaches: straight-backed wooden seats and simple, mono-colored upholstered benches, with passengers facing each other, and electric lights (fancy!).  Wooden seat style and existence of electric lights in the Galactic Railroad put in somewhere in the 1800s.   

First and second class were for the well-to-do, so third class was the standard class that the average worker or family rode.  

The three class system eventually fell out of favor, in part due to the declining popularity of second class seats.  Throughout the late 1800s and early 1900s, rail companies were switching to a two class system and re-branding the old third class seats as “second class’, or “standard” seats.  This leads us to the seating system used today.
