Warning: Spoilers below for Zootopia 2

This week, Nintendo announced it’s buying Bandai Namco Studios Singapore. The studio, formerly owned by Bandai Namco, will become part of Nintendo and will be renamed Nintendo Studios Singapore. The full purchase will happen in stages, starting with 80% on April 1, 2026. Nintendo will buy the remaining 20% after the studio’s operations are running smoothly.

Many popular manga series use the term “Super Climax” to signal they’re nearing the end. For example, Undead Unluck announced its Super Climax last December and finished in January 2025, while Mashle did the same in June 2023, concluding the following month. Demon Slayer and The Promised Neverland both ended in 2020 after using similar announcements. Given this trend, and the fact that the current battle against Lucius Zogratis is almost finished, it’s likely this manga will also conclude around 2026 – which wouldn’t be unexpected.

As a longtime MCU fan, I’ve noticed something interesting: just because a hero is incredibly powerful doesn’t guarantee them a spot on the Avengers. It’s surprising, really, how many strong characters – both in the movies and the comics – have never actually been official members. We’re talking about heroes with abilities that could really change things, yet they haven’t quite measured up to the Avengers’ standards, at least not yet.

What are the absolute best PlayStation 5 games? We’re talking about the titles we’ve given a perfect 10/10 score. Looking back at everything we’ve reviewed at Push Square, only ten PS5 games have earned that top rating.

As a gamer, I think it’s really cool to see what’s popular on platforms like Steam – it gives you a good idea of where the whole industry is heading. Lately, I’ve noticed a huge jump in indie games, and the numbers back it up! More and more people are buying smaller, more unique titles instead of just the big AAA games we used to see everywhere. It’s awesome to see so much support for experimental and affordable games, and honestly, it makes me excited about the future of gaming. It’s clear things are changing, and Steam’s sales figures really show that.

Both Ichi the Witch and Kagurabachi are quickly gaining popularity and could become major hits. Shueisha, the publisher, is clearly investing in these series and promoting them heavily. As part of this push, both manga will be featured on the cover of the January 2026 issue of Weekly Shonen Jump (available December 1, 2025). They’re also launching a collaborative event called the “Ichi or Bachi Challenge” right now.

As a movie critic, I was really excited when Henry Cavill showed up in Black Adam – it felt like we were finally getting back on track for a Man of Steel sequel. Sadly, the arrival of James Gunn and Peter Safran as heads of DC Studios put those plans to bed with their decision to reboot everything into the DCU. But hope isn’t entirely lost! There’s still a buzz that Cavill could find a new place in this universe, and some fantastic fan art I saw on Instagram from @subi.ozil got me thinking. It envisions him as Absolute Superman, a darker, more battle-worn version of the character that debuted in the comics recently. Honestly, that would be a really interesting and fun direction for Cavill to take the role – a great twist on what we’ve seen before.

Things were quite different in the 1970s when it came to going to the movies. It was a common and affordable pastime for most people. Movie studios also didn’t face competition from streaming services or numerous cable channels, allowing them more control over when films were released. In one instance, an action movie even dared to open at the same time as the original Star Wars, and surprisingly, it was initially successful.

Adult Swim’s animated series, Smiling Friends, has become a hit, following Charlie, Pim, and their colleagues as they try to make people happy. In the recent episode “Squim Returns,” characters Glep and Alan are noticeably missing – they’re at an anime convention! Alan is dressed as a funny version of Sailor Moon, and Glep is cosplaying as Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy VII. Adult Swim shared new artwork of the pair online, showing them off as the ultimate anime duo.
