shingeki tu madre s04 trailer;

studio confirmed as mappa, and while potentially inferior to wit, at least a debacle like opm seasons 02 is very unlikely to happen.

2nd season of Re:Zero is coming this July.

My first impressions of this anime for the first 15 minutes was that it's gonna be Konosuba 2.0 with Subaru being Kazuma 2.0. Boy was I wrong. Re:Zero is pretty much the 'Groundhog's Day' of isekai anime but offers so much when it comes to plot twists and character development. The main protagonist goes through so much from PTSD to CPTSD, depression and surprisingly a nervous breakdown. It has drama, love, action, D&D themes, fantasy and comedy done right and at the same time keeps you guessing. This is truly a gem among gems of isekai anime. If you're looking for something different and at the same time entertaining this is the anime for you.  ;)

Is Neko from K Project the cattiest anime cat girl ever? If not, any other contenders?

I can't help but feel Belle Delphine took inspiration from Neko.  :catgoi:

Neko is a strong contender, but hanekawa is the most popular.
The OG catgirl was shampoo, tho; but she predates this so much she has an actual cat form and human form an no hybrid form... and the cat girl in masou gakuen is just hnng, even if she is a fake.

This sure is one long product placement for a movie teaser.

Lots of fans complaining how her henshin is pretty much a copy paste of the 90's and it looking like it has choppy animation too. I'm pretty sure they'll still watch it.  :bjugoi:

That's an odd thing to complain about seeing Crystal's deviation on its art and how awkward it looked in the first two seasons was its main outcry and the third smoothed things out for the better, but the original 90's series was still the preferred look.  I mean heck, the freaking Universal Studios Japan ride tried to match the 90's show more than new Crystal at the time.

Is this still going to be their odd attempt at the anime's season this time being LotR-levels of content stuffed into each movie, around 3 hour per movie?  I actually think I don't know any anime movies that long, if that's still the game plan after all these years?  Such an odd project this whole season of Crystal is, it still would have made a lot more sense to me to save this for their coverage of Sailor Stars, the finale.  Because now they need to find some way to top this stunt when they get to that point.  I mean...I GUESS they could just continue on and only making passing mention of the movies, somewhat like Dragon Ball Super did with stuff post-Broly movie, so it happened but isn't mandatory....but doing something like that completely defeats the point of this Crystal anime series even existing to be more canon to the manga.

Anyways, the clip still looks good and modern....nothing new or out of the ordinary, par for the course.  I still prefer the 90's aethetic....but welcome to literally all of anime.  Not much to be gained by bemoaning about it.

Better start watching at that Sailormoon fan website I go to. That's the only place I know where to watch PGSM.

Anime fans, apologies for being the bearer of bad news. Popular websites, "KissAnime and KissManga" have been taken down permanently. In a June 2020 report by Kyodo News, it was reported that the Japanese parliament had endorsed a revised anti-online piracy law for copyright control, banning illicit downloading of manga, magazines, and academic texts, in addition to music and videos that were already covered by the existing legislation. According to the report, the law also regulates “leech websites” that facilitates users with hyperlinks to download pirated materials. The ban on illegal downloading will take effect on January 1 next year, while restrictions on leech sites will come into effect on October 1, as per the story.

I think I've only used the site once or twice just to watch My-Hime.  :sweatdrop:

NEWS: Taiwanese Man Breaks Up With Girlfriend For Throwing Away Nezuko Figurines!

Never incur the wrath of a passionate fan, especially when said individual owns collectibles and merchandise that make your wallet quiver in fear. Promote the ‘never’ to a ‘never ever’ if the collection only consists of the all-time best boy, best girl, best what-have-you favourite characters, because the outcome can turn out to be pretty damn intense.

Such was the case with a (ex-)couple in Taiwan, where a man’s then-girlfriend’s disrespectful treatment of his beloved anime figurine collection initiated a messy break-up and a potential lawsuit for damages. It all started with a post in a Taiwanese Facebook group that allowed users to rant about their girlfriends in an anonymous capacity:

“I want to rant about my girlfriend, who made use of the two days that I wasn’t at home to throw away my beloved Nezuko (from popular anime Demon Slayer) dolls. Do you know how much the entire collection was worth? Hundreds of thousands of [Taiwanese] dollars!!!” he wrote. “I bought the figures with my hard-earned money over the years, and you reduced them into a heap of trash on the rubbish truck!”

According to the man, the former girlfriend threw out the figurines because they were taking up space in the apartment that were cohabiting in. He also mentioned that he had yet to watch Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba the Movie: Infinity Train in theatres because she didn’t like him watching anime (the blasphemy!).

“I left you to your own whims when you spent the whole day watching Korean dramas and fangirling over Korean idols. How difficult is it to have mutual respect for each other,” continues the post. “To think I used to hide my hobbies to make you happy in the name of love; how pathetic was I to do so for a trash woman like you.”

In hopes of getting his collection back, the user made a call to the rubbish collection company, but was told that the heap of trash had already been burnt. He decided to initiate a break-up with his ex-girlfriend, who said that he was being overly-dramatic. She, however, agreed to it, and threw in some parting insults for good measure, “You otaku love such trash so much it’s ridiculous.” Following the fiasco, the man is looking to sue his ex-girlfriend for damages.

Yu Yu Hakusho, the spirit detective manga by Hunter x Hunter's Yoshihiro Togashi, is inspiring a live-action series on Netflix!

Yoshihiro Togashi's Yu Yu Hakusho manga is inspiring a live-action series that will stream on Netflix worldwide. Netflix contents acquisition director Kazutaka Sakamoto is the executive producer, and Akira Morii is producing at Robot. The manga already inspired a stage play (pictured right) that ran in Japan from August to September 2019.

The manga follows 14-year-old delinquent Yusuke Urameshi, who dies after saving a child in a car accident. The Spirit World is surprised by his death and offers him a chance to come back as a "spirit detective" who is tasked with defeating demons.
