Season 2 of My Hero Academia: Vigilantes has begun airing, with new episodes released weekly as part of the Winter 2026 anime season. A big surprise for fans is that Crunchyroll will release the English dub alongside the original Japanese version, meaning viewers can enjoy the latest episodes no matter their preferred language. The entire English dub cast is also returning for the new season.
Without any background on that intense Cyclops moment, it’s hard to say what’s happening. Given this is the X-Men, it could be a training exercise in the Danger Room, where Cyclops is letting out his feelings after a difficult event. However, the teaser strongly suggests a tragedy is unfolding. We see an older Magneto and Professor X discussing death, and Cyclops appears deeply upset while using his powers. All signs point to a dark and troubled future for the X-Men.
It’s surprising how popular Daryl became, considering he wasn’t part of the original comic book series. He was created just for the TV show and quickly became a standout character. While the writing played a role in his success, a lot of the credit goes to Norman Reedus, the actor who brought him to life, who is celebrating his 57th birthday today.
Everyone has a favorite Final Fantasy game, and the PlayStation 2 had many great options. Among the six titles available, Final Fantasy X is often considered the best. Released in 2001 as the tenth installment in the series, it was the first to feature fully 3D environments. The game also introduced a unique battle system that combined turn-based combat with conditional actions, along with a new way to level up characters. Praised for its compelling story, Final Fantasy X was a huge commercial success, selling over 8.5 million copies and leading to the first direct sequel in the Final Fantasy series. It has since been remastered for modern consoles, continuing to captivate RPG fans and longtime followers of the franchise.
This patent details a system that helps players in games using an AI-controlled “ghost character.” The AI learns by watching gameplay footage and understands different game situations and player options. When a player gets stuck, they can activate this “ghost” to see how to overcome the challenge, essentially receiving assistance from an AI showing them the best course of action.
A new anime series featuring Scooby-Doo and Shaggy, titled “Scooby-Goo! Gokko,” was recently announced at an event in Brazil and is scheduled to premiere in 2027. This follows a trend of reimagining classic Warner Bros. characters in anime format, similar to the recent anime version of Tom and Jerry. The “Gokko” style gives characters a cute and endearing look, judging by the previous Tom and Jerry anime. Interestingly, this isn’t the first Scooby-Doo anime, and some fans might be curious about the status of another Scooby-Doo anime project that was previously announced. You can see a first look image below.
January isn’t usually packed with new game releases, but there are still a few interesting titles coming. It’s also a good time to revisit older games you may have missed.

Plus, several major games from 2025, like Atomfall and Rematch, will be available.
Currently, Prime Video’s most popular movies include action-packed titles like The Accountant with Ben Affleck, Jason Statham’s A Working Man, and the upcoming John Wick spin-off, Ballerina. However, topping the chart is Trap House, a 2025 thriller directed by Michael Dowse. The film stars Dave Bautista as DEA agent Ray Seale, who discovers he’s chasing his own teenage children, a group of thieves. Unfortunately for viewers in the U.S., Trap House isn’t available for streaming on Prime Video or any other major platform right now, so it can only be rented or purchased.
As we shared before, the broadcast is scheduled for January 8th and will kick off a year of news and updates about the Persona series. Atlus has now clarified that the broadcast will focus on merchandise and upcoming events.
