Been a while since YT recommended such a small channel. Pleasantly surprised!
Obscure details of a character ecosystem, that deserves to be remembered.
Came here from a Techquickie video of all things, btw. May the algorithm favor you.

Thanks so much! I really appreciate the encouragement! Obscure and forgotten characters fascinate me so much!
