I've been playing games for a LONG time. I'm mostly an anime nerd so naturally I play a lot of video games too. I'm part of the Anime World Order podcast so please check that out too. Not a pro gamers...

Oh my god it's true, here is "Twisted By Love" from Tubi, and this is NOT behind the scenes footage, this was left IN THE MOVIE.

@mattalt.bsky.social I'm listening to the newest episode of Tokyoscope have you considered uploading that episode of Tokyo Eye to Archive.org? I think the world really needs to see it.

I see Colorful Stage! The Movie: A Miku Who Can't Sing anime
is getting a fancy release with a lot of extras, I still stand by that was the worst anime I'd seen all year last year, a huge waste of time unless you're a gigantic fan of Colorful Stage already, do not bother.

Man, I feel like I should see Arco but I just have zero desire to see it, maybe when I can find it in French?

I wonder, since Crunchyroll super hard locked down their DRM on their site to the point that you can't even take a fucking screenshot, I WONDER if perhaps viewing numbers have gone down, I mean it was very effective to post a screenshot of a show to show it off, now you can only do that with piracy.

So let me get this straight, She-Ra was made by Netflix for their service and yet it is going to be leaving that service soon and there is no legitimate Blu-ray of the show or any physical release of the show, so the show is just going to be gone? And yet somehow it's illegal to just pirate it?

Hi everyone, it's new article day. 🥰
This week, we have a new piece by Kyli Rodriguez-Cayro that examines recent anime Orb: On the Movements of the Earth, and its story's parallels with the rise of authoritarianism in the USA. It's a great read, and we hope you enjoy it.

Orb: On the Movements of the Earth and its Parallels with Present-Day Censorship
Sure, Orb is a warning against the dangers of authoritarianism. More importantly, the show represents the indelible curiosity that all people possess. It’s about the intrinsic need to understand. To know. To find meaning. To have autonomy.

I had to look up what the hell Citadel even was, it's some Russo Bros Prime TV show that no one has head of, no one has watched and no one will ever watch, yet it has eaten up more money than any of us will ever see in our lives in one episode.

I'm still early on but Champignon Witch is super cute! Animated shoujo is so rare and it's nice to see some being made. I just started but it's charming so far, I'll see where it goes. Also SOOO many mushrooms.

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

So, I've been searching for this erotic film I saw on Cinemax late night back in the 1990's and finally found it, it's extremely silly, dubbed from a French film and the amazing and great Peter Marinker (aka. Gotoh from Patlabor Manga dub) is doing uncredited dubbing in it!

Tetsuo Hara drew these to commemorate his having filed his tax return using his smartphone. Notice how he drew both of these on the same day despite no longer really being able to see particularly well. Stuff like this makes me even more irate that the upcoming TV series will be in crap looking 3DCG
