It’s a fantastic time to be a manga reader, with so many amazing new series coming out. Several recent titles are truly special, quickly becoming defining works for a new generation and showing all the signs of becoming modern classics.

The mobile game Hotel Hideaway, originally released in 2018, is now available on Steam as Hotel Hideaway: Avatar & Chat. While it remains unavailable on consoles, the Steam version has received a “Mixed” rating, with only 67% of players giving it a positive review. Interestingly, most negative feedback isn’t about the gameplay itself, but the requirement to connect a Facebook account. This is a significant issue for many players, but it’s separate from the actual quality of the game.

Crunchyroll played a key role in launching Dr. Stone, and the anime is nearing its conclusion. After eight years, Dr. Stone: Science Future has released a trailer for its final episodes, giving fans a preview of the series’ exciting finale. You can watch the trailer below.

The 1990s produced a lot of fantastic action movies, but many were overlooked or have since been forgotten. As a result, there are some truly great action films from that decade that don’t get the recognition they deserve. Despite being a strong era for the genre, audiences have largely forgotten how good some of these movies actually were.

Jon Bernthal is returning as the Punisher after first appearing in the Marvel Cinematic Universe with Daredevil: Born Again. He’ll have a special on Disney+ and will finally play the character in a movie, titled Brand New Day. While some fans believe Daredevil would be a better fit for a street-level hero role – especially since he helped Spider-Man in Spider-Man: No Way Home – Marvel should hold off on a Daredevil/Spider-Man team-up until the next Spider-Man film. A compelling villain is emerging who would be perfect for that story.

The Red Dead Redemption games are famous for their incredible stories, proving that open-world games can be about much more than just action.
