Finally, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba fans: we have our first episode of the long-awaited third season! In fact, in Ep. 1 "Someone's Dream", we even get to see Tanjiro and Nezuko have their own adventure together at long last. After all, what better way for them to have a brother and sister
The Ancient Magus' Bride season 1 ended its run on March 24, 2018. Since then, the only anime adaptation we've had of Kore Yamazaki's dark fantasy manga masterpiece is a 3-episode OVA in the form of The Boy From the West and the Knight of the Mountain Haze. With no sign of a second season in sight,
It seems that studio Orange has decided to make Trigun Stampede Ep. 12 "High Noon at July" end the season with a bang. It's a pretty spectacular bang to boot, and it even makes up for all the negatives the anime had in its early episodes. I daresay that with this finale, this reboot anime is as
Trigun Stampede Ep. 11 "To a New World" really goes off-rails from the original canon, but this time in a good way. With this episode featuring some nightmarish content of the botanical variety, it really leans into horror far more than the 1998 anime ever did. Frankly, this seems like a great
Yes, we know that Vash is the star of the show, even in Trigun Stampede Ep. 10 "Humanity". However, this is also the episode where Meryl finally has her long overdue day in this anime. We even see why it is that Orange's writers wrote her the way they did throughout the entire anime. It even gives
After a month-long hiatus, Tatsuya Endo finally returns to Shonen Jump with the long-awaited Spy x Family Ch. 76! Even better, it continues with the aftermath of the Red Circus hijacking. With Anya reacting...more or less how you'd expect a roughly 5-year-old kid to react to nearly dying.
In many ways, you can consider Trigun Stampede Ep. 9 "Millions Knives" to be an origin story for the titular character in addition to Vash. After all, Knives shares the spotlight with Vash in this episode. We even get to see a bit of why he's so genocidal, even if there's still a big plot hole
Trigun Stampede Ep. 8 "Our Home." actually gives us new details about Vash the Stampede's backstory that wasn't in the original 1998 anime. In other words: the writers are actually filling in holes in canon instead of trying to change canon altogether. To me, this is what Orange should've done all
The Sheep Detectives is a towering testament of how powerful animated stories can be when done right. A genuine crowdpleaser, the film is sure to warm and break your heart, wrestling with richly textured explorations of death and grief, lost and found families, and the necessity of memory.
Though marital arts action cinema is vast and varied, it is rare for one to elevate the genre and push it forward. There have been few recently - The Raid comes to mind, and while not technically "martial arts" I'd argue John Wick counts - that feel as if something new and special is happening.
Daemons of the Shadow Realm has Yuru and his Daemons turn the table on his pursuers in Ep. 4 "Jin and Yuru". It's pretty clearly a case of the hunters becoming the hunted here, and in a very action-packed way to boot. Now we wait and see if this is a good thing for Yuru, or if he has bitten off
