Good lord. What a week to be into games, am I right? I'm sure everybody has thoughts and hopes and fears about Microsoft's impending Activision-Blizzard assimilation… and I'd like to hear all of them!― ~~ 𝒯𝓊𝑒𝓈𝒹𝒶𝓎, 𝒥𝒶𝓃 𝟣𝟪𝓉𝒽 ~~ -- 𝒜𝓅𝓅𝓇𝑜𝓍𝒾𝓂𝒶𝓉𝑒𝓁𝓎 𝟩:2𝟢 𝒜𝑀 𝒫𝒮𝒯 -- *may be slightly dramatized Ahh, crap. Why the hell did I wake up so early? I stayed up way too late last night tidying up my Windjammers 2 revi...
Even if the content isn't an issue for you, the book is firmly mediocre, something you'd pick up if you ran out of other things in the genre to read, because it's better than nothing – more or less.― While I always glance at the content warnings for a volume of manga, they rarely make much of an impression, unless it's one of Viz's sarcastic ones. But the warning on the back of Tokyopop's release of...

All the trappings are there: We have a...
ANN's Richard Eisenbeis had the opportunity to talk with Lead Composer Taisei Iwasaki about the process of creating the music that is so central to BELLE's narrative and themes.― It is perhaps an understatement to say that music is an important component to Mamoru Hosoda's latest film BELLE; after all, BELLE revolves around a grief-stricken girl named Suzu who finds shelter and salvation by creating...
From the creator of Dorohedoro comes a new series about a man, his supposedly magic bones, and the out-of-this-world characters who try to obtain them.― There's really no one working in manga quite like Q Hayashida.

This series is streaming on Crunchyroll Disclaimer...
The Duke of Death And His Maid had a lot more meat to it than I originally gave it credit for. I was surprised at how much love, wholesomeness, and affection could be squeezed out from such a dreary and at times lewd premise.― Despite the rather dark implications of the overall premise, I thought it was just another entry in the growing list of anime that are now making up this “teasing genre.” Than...
Disney Twisted-Wonderland stands out among the other Japanese-developed collaborations because of how unabashedly otaku it is.― Disney Twisted-Wonderland isn't the first time Disney has collaborated with prominent Japanese game creators on bold new interpretations of classic Disney properties. The most obvious example is, of course, Kingdom Hearts, but there have been other examples over the years: ...

Even with limited character designs and plots that don't quite hit as hard as they need to in the end, it's hard to fault Rumiko Takahashi's shorter work.― Even with limited character designs and plots that don't quite hit as hard as they need to in the end, it's hard to fault Rumiko Takahashi's shorter work.
