You definitely shouldn’t miss Stray, a highly-rated indie game available with PS Plus. Released in 2022, Stray lets you play as a cat exploring a futuristic city populated by robots. Despite its simple premise, it’s become incredibly popular with millions of players and even received some Game of the Year nominations that year.
The AI dubbing of anime like Banana Fish on Amazon Prime is really poor, but it does highlight something important: AI can’t replace real voice actors. No matter how much AI technology improves, human voice acting will always be better, and there are already many excellent English dubs that demonstrate this.
When heroes kill each other, it’s usually due to outside forces or a loss of control, not a descent into villainy. These stories highlight the fact that even the noblest individuals can commit terrible acts when driven to despair or misled. In the Marvel Universe, such events serve as a stark reminder of how easily good intentions can turn monstrous under extreme pressure.
Even the most successful anime relies on a shared, repeating pattern. Truly great anime pushes boundaries, avoiding what’s easy or mainstream. These stories were specifically created for this visual medium, and that unique quality is likely what makes them so exceptional.
Margaret Hamilton’s portrayal of the Wicked Witch in the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz is unforgettable, largely thanks to her incredibly iconic and delightfully evil laugh. It’s a sound that’s become synonymous with the character over the years. The new musical, Wicked: For Good, honors Hamilton’s performance by referencing that famous laugh, but in a surprising way.
Jim Lee played a huge role in making the X-Men so popular in the 1990s, but he’s just one of many incredible artists who’ve worked on the comics. Marvel has consistently hired top-tier artists for the X-Men over the years, resulting in some truly iconic artwork. While these seven artists aren’t Jim Lee, they are all exceptionally talented.
Fans are always eager for any news about their favorite games, whether it comes directly from developers like Todd Howard at Bethesda, or from subtle hints online. This recent post on X (formerly Twitter) from Geoff Keighley is a perfect example – he’s probably building excitement for the upcoming Game Awards.
Daisuke Ashihara’s World Trigger has had a unique journey. The manga has faced several delays, leaving fans waiting years for new chapters. The anime adaptation has also experienced setbacks – after a first season of over 70 episodes in 2016, it took five years for new seasons to arrive. Now, there’s exciting news: the series is teasing a “reboot” announcement scheduled for December 4th in Japan, just before Jump Festa 2026.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe often uses time travel as a simple way to move the plot forward, without much consistent logic. Different movies and shows have presented completely different rules for how time travel works, sometimes claiming unrelated events were actually connected. While some stories have been enjoyable – with Loki being a standout example – it hasn’t been entirely fulfilling. Surprisingly, despite all the MCU’s efforts, a time travel story from Marvel Television, created before Endgame, remains the most compelling.
Avatar: Fire and Ash is scheduled to be released on December 19th, but there’s talk that Marvel Studios might release the trailer for Doomsday online before Avatar 3 comes out.
