I actually think the price is decent if someone already watches shows on Starz. Saving five dollars every month is not nothing. The bigger issue for me is that it only works through Prime Video. That adds another subscription that people have to think about. I would rather see Crunchyroll offer...

If someone has never played either game before, then I think buying the Switch 2 version makes sense. They get the sharper image and smoother performance from the beginning, so they won't feel like they're paying twice. But for existing owners, I really don't see much value here unless they...

I'm actually more excited for Sparks of Tomorrow than the bigger names. Steampunk Japan already sounds interesting, and adding the discovery of electricity makes the story feel different from the usual action anime. I also like that it's coming out soon instead of making people wait for months...

From a production standpoint, this kind of decision is not surprising but still disappointing. Streaming platforms often look at cost versus return more than audience reaction. If the show has heavy effects or expensive cast members, it becomes harder to justify even decent numbers. The Boroughs...

I’m more into long sets and adaptation in Street Fighter 6, and Yasmine feels like a character that changes a lot after the first five games in a set. At first she looks overwhelming, but once you learn her pressure structure, you start seeing patterns. That’s where the real match begins. If her...

From a storytelling point of view, this is actually a strong direction. Faye has always been a mystery, and using her as the lead lets the developers explore events that shaped the whole Norse arc. I am interested in how they will handle her relationships after death and how that connects to...

I remember when anime fans used to get mocked for liking anime in public, so reading about a museum doing a free watch party for the Anime Awards still feels strange to me in a good way. Anime really became part of mainstream entertainment. MoMI is not some tiny location either. That is a...

Eren’s villain turn is what made Attack on Titan stand out from other anime. Many stories keep the hero pure, but this one showed how a normal person can become dangerous when filled with hate. Isayama calling it foolishness from his twenties is funny. That “foolishness” created something...

I feel mixed about starting Ani-May before May. On one hand, it gives fans something earlier, which is nice. On the other hand, it makes the event feel a bit stretched out. But if the reason is to highlight something like Reze arc, then I understand the decision. This arc is important for...

The prison angle for Wonka is kind of funny in a dark way, and I’m curious how they balance that with a family-friendly tone. The heist idea also changes the whole power dynamic, since Charlie is usually the lucky kid who wins by being good. Now he’s part of a group trying to break in, which...

I am glad this is streaming on Crunchyroll because I already use it, so it is easy for me to follow weekly. I like weekly releases since it gives me time to think about each episode. The story sounds interesting, but I am more curious about the pacing. Some fantasy anime start strong but slow...

I like conventions, but I am very selective now. Looking at this list, I see many good guests, but I also see a lot of spending if I am not careful. I think the best way is to set a limit before going. Maybe choose one autograph and one photo, then stop. I also think people forget that panels...

I’m not gonna lie, that first episode got me SO hyped. The tone, the music, Johnny and Gyro’s dynamic already hitting—like yeah, they nailed it. That’s why this silence hurts more 😭 I’m trying to stay positive and think they’re cooking something big, but man… just give us a schedule at least.

This is smart from Nintendo. Digital should be cheaper because there is no plastic or shipping. I never understood why both versions cost the same before. Saves money and good for the environment too I think. Less waste. I am getting Yoshi digital for sure. Looks like a relaxing game perfect for...

Finally some good Supergirl news. Been waiting for more original stuff instead of just old reprints. This 48-page special looks strong – Lobo showing up in Midvale? That’s going to be chaotic and fun. I trust Sophie Campbell to make it feel personal. The other stories sound like they are...
