Nintendo might be resurrecting a long-dead game - plus some fighting game news straight out of EVO Japan, Steins;Gate and more! ― Why, hello again! I'm back from Europe, I'm still kinda tired, and I missed a lot of gaming news that happened last week when it happened.

This salacious yuri melodrama is anything but Class S. Theron Martin weighs the pros and cons of this bittersweet romance title on blu-ray. ― Before Domestic Girlfriend came along to stir the pot of stepsibling love, there was this Winter 2018 series based on a yuri manga. The two are alike in some basic ways; they both feature the noxious “surprise stepsibling” gimmick, where the new housemates show...

anime

This sequel film pits Tanya against a literal Mary Sue as her war games engulf the neighboring Russy Federation. Kim Morrissy breaks down how this movie expands on the TV series, straight from its theatrical run in Japan. ― Saga of Tanya the Evil was such an odd show. Ostensibly a fantasy military story starring the world's most conniving little girl, the series is really an extended argument between...

The long and proud history of giant robot model building is forever connected to the anime industry. Mike's ready to build a robot - are you? ― I was surrounded.

This epic Holy Grail War doubles the number of heroic spirits on the playing field, but does this twist enhance the story or leave it feeling overcrowded? Rebecca Silverman weighs in on Aniplex's deluxe release. ― While Fate/Apocrypha does share some basics with the game that started it all, Type-Moon's Fate/Stay Night, it's really best to think of it as totally separate from the story of Shirou, Rin...

Justin digs in to the details. ― Anonymous asked: This might come across as a naive question but what does it mean when a role is 'non-union' and why are so many anime roles non-union?

This Universal Century timeline film works well as a complement to Gundam Unicorn, but struggles to stand out as its own story.
