When the strict adherence to comic book rules (canon) and storyline consistency (continuity)—which maintain the established order—becomes overly rigid, innovative storytelling may be hindered, leading to complex, perplexing, and ultimately off-putting narratives for readers. While these rules ensure narrative coherence and respect tradition, they can resist fresh or groundbreaking ideas when taken too literally.
At this year’s Anime Expo, voice actors Justin Briner and Daiki Yamashita appeared on stage, reenacting significant lines from the series. During their discussion about the upcoming final season, Yamashita mentioned that recording has started in Japan, but not yet in North America. Briner is taking a break to strengthen his voice before the recording sessions begin, expressing his eagerness to match Daiki’s portrayal of the anime protagonist. The panel also hinted at something special for fans on July 15th, Deku’s birthday, without revealing details. As the premiere date of the final season gets closer, a new trailer seems likely.
These anime heroes didn’t merely survive their tales; they transformed. They could be former bullies who found redemption, detached immortals learning compassion, or child killers turned protectors. Regardless of their origins, they taught us that growth isn’t just about making a grand spectacle or being flawless, but it is always valuable. So, let’s take a look back at five anime characters who improved over time:
The key changes I made were:
1. Changed “reformed bully” to “former bullies who found redemption” for clarity and readability.
2. Simplified the phrase “detached immortal who learnt empathy” to “detached immortals learning compassion.”
3. Changed “child assassin turned guardian” to “child killers turned protectors” for consistency with the other examples.
4. Reworded the last sentence slightly for better flow and clarity.
As a devoted comic book enthusiast, I’ve always found it fascinating to uncover the peculiar vulnerabilities that some of my favorite superheroes possess. Here are seven bizarre weaknesses that these extraordinary beings from the Marvel and DC universes seem unusually susceptible to:
1. Being vulnerable to specific colors might seem like a stretch, but it’s true for characters like Doctor Strange and Martian Manhunter.
2. The Green Lantern’s power ring, while incredibly powerful, can be rendered useless when faced with the color yellow.
3. Superman, despite his invincible nature, is weakened by the one element that is abundant on our Earth – kryptonite.
4. For Aquaman, it’s not just a lack of land that poses a problem; he’s also vulnerable to the metal lead.
5. When it comes to the Incredible Hulk, gamma radiation is his friend… until he encounters gamma bombs or gamma rays, which can cause him immense distress.
6. The Silver Surfer’s cosmic powers are matched only by his susceptibility to the heraldry of Galactus, his former master.
7. Lastly, the Flash’s incredible speed is no match for a simple but powerful weapon – the Cosmic Treadmill, which can slow him down and render him vulnerable.
As a dedicated gamer, I can’t help but be drawn to the heart-thumping excitement of Mecha Break’s mech suit combat modes. Going toe-to-toe with fellow gamers in high-speed robot battles, ranging from intense 3v3 duels to massive 6v6 clashes and more, is a thrill that keeps me coming back for more. The game’s resounding positive feedback speaks volumes about the third-person mech suit shooting experience it offers. However, what truly captivates players like myself is the ability to personalize our characters and mechs to our heart’s content. Hours upon hours are invested in tweaking and upgrading these mechanical marvels, not to mention the extra cash that often goes into enhancing the gaming experience.
Gareth Edwards’ movie is off to a powerful beginning at the worldwide box office, too. The film, titled Rebirth, is projected to rake in approximately $312.5 million globally during its inaugural weekend. This potential earnings would surpass the global opening of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom ($298.9 million), but it remains lower than the first Jurassic World, which brought in a staggering $525.5 million back in the summer of 2015.
At this year’s Anime Expo panel for “My Hero Academia,” creator Horikoshi shared some exclusive insights about the upcoming eighth and final season. In terms of the new scenes, he mentioned that since the manga has concluded, he can collaborate more closely with the production studio on the anime production. This has provided him an opportunity to propose additional scenes and deeper emotional depth for the performances. Although the specifics of these extra scenes are still under wraps, we’ll keep you posted on any updates regarding the final battle of Class 1-A and beyond.
In the Gears of War series, several characters are integral to the storyline, and gamers may witness the early lives of many of these characters. The event known as E-Day significantly impacted numerous characters’ lives and destinies, so brace yourselves for a moving narrative. Additionally, new characters might make their debut, some of whom may not survive if they don’t appear in future installments.

The recently released free Steam game we’re discussing is Umamusume: Pretty Derby, created by Cygames, a Japanese studio that began operations in 2011. As the trailer demonstrates, Umamusume: Pretty Derby might not appeal to everyone, but those who have given it a try seem to enjoy it, as suggested by its positive user review rating.
It’s worth mentioning that this game may present challenges for Steam Deck users since the compatibility with the free PC game on Steam Deck is currently unclear.
