I feel sorry for the employees more than anything else. Four hundred people losing their jobs is not just a gaming headline. These are people with families, bills, and years of experience in an industry that is already difficult to work in. I hope they find new opportunities, although I know...

This update feels like a solid push toward making Crunchyroll more than just an anime platform. Hinomaru Sumo stands out right away because it challenges the usual body expectations in sports stories. That kind of setup makes it easier to stay interested over time. The mix of titles also looks...

The mecha panel is probably where I would spend most of my time. I still think giant robot shows have a special place even if they are not as popular now. I do not feel abandoned, but I do feel that fewer people talk about them. Sometimes trends change too fast. One year it is magical girls...

Light Yagami was definitely the villain. He killed so many people and thought he was a god. The trial panel will be entertaining if people get really into their roles. I hope they do more than just Death Note because there are other controversial topics in anime too.

I am one of those people who enjoyed the second movie more than the first. I liked seeing more of the outside world and other survivors. So for me, a third movie is actually a good idea. I want them to go even bigger this time. Not just one place, but different areas and how people adapt...

Adrianne Palicki basically said the long gaps were a problem back in 2023, and nothing's changed. Seth wants to do everything himself, which is cool for quality but terrible for schedules. If they can't figure out a way to make it work with the actors, this might stay "planned" forever. I'm not...

This lineup is honestly impressive. So many women creators in lead roles, which is great to see for Supergirl. Francesca Michielin from Italy is a singer but apparently she writes comics too? Interesting mix. Stevan Subic's art for Serbia always looks intense, that one could be a standout...

Wow, I didn’t expect to learn so much from a show like this. It actually made me think about how trading isn’t just numbers—it’s about decisions, emotions, and consequences. Seeing Kurumi face real risks and deal with her family’s past made me realize how much stress and responsibility goes into...

I’ve played Chrono Trigger more times than I can count, and the idea of a proper remake actually excites me. The ports are okay, but none of them really capture the feeling of playing it fresh for the first time. I think Square has the resources, but they’ve made some questionable decisions...

It honestly makes me feel very sad that Dragon Quest is moving forward without Akira Toriyama’s touch. His art style was not just decoration, it was the soul of the series. Whenever I saw one of his character designs, I could immediately recognize it. The big eyes, the rounded faces, the way he...

I am a little disappointed by the order of the Dragon Quest remakes. I wanted IV before VII because it has such a strong reputation. Jumping ahead feels strange, and it makes me question if Square Enix has a long-term plan for these reimaginings. Still, at least Dragon Quest is alive and well.

For me the biggest news is the reissue of Dragon Ball Super: Broly in SteelBook. That movie is my favorite from Dragon Ball in years. The SteelBook editions always sell out fast, so I am glad they are giving people another chance. When it first came out, I missed the preorders and could only buy...

I tried the sample chapters and I think this manga has something really special. It reminds me a little bit of Made in Abyss, but more grounded in folklore. I’m a big fan of emotional fantasy, and Mitsutani seems to be writing something honest here. The monsters don’t feel like scary...

Okay, so M3GAN 2.0. I've seen the trailer. It seems like they're going for the classic "bigger threat means old enemy becomes ally" storyline, which is fine, I guess. The new robot, Amelia, sounds like she's going to be more violent, which makes sense for a sequel. My main concern is the whole...

I understand that they are concerned. I think that they should have thought about this before they released the game on PC. It is too late now. I think that people are going to do what they want. It is a good idea to ask people to be respectful, but I do not think that it will work. I am just...
