Many viewers enjoyed the return of these popular characters and were happy with the latest addition to the series. However, a lot of fans were disappointed, often because of the highly debated ending, especially what happened to Eleven. Now, Netflix faces a similar issue with the upcoming release of Stranger Things.
Okay, so the new episode, “Gary,” felt a lot like one of those deeper-dive flashback episodes of The Bear. It really centered on Mike and Richie – we got to see them playing basketball, playfully arguing with some kids, and just… being Mike and Richie. There’s a lot of love and tension between them, as always, and somehow, through all of that, they actually get the package delivered! What added to the stress, though, was that Richie promised Tiff (Gillian Jacobs makes a quick appearance) he’d be back by 5:15 because she’s about to have the baby, which just ramped up the anxiety like we’re used to with The Bear.
As a big fan, I think there’s really something here for everyone – a little bit of every type of story you could want! And honestly, it’s awesome knowing you can enjoy so many great, classic tales without spending a dime. It makes the whole experience even better!
While comic books often return to familiar storylines, Marvel has always experimented with the Hulk character. Beyond the Hulk’s many internal personalities and the numerous heroes who’ve transformed into him after gamma exposure, there are also countless alternate versions across the multiverse. Though many of these variations are interesting, some really shouldn’t exist. A few are so poorly conceived that both Marvel and fans wish they could erase them from history. Here, we’ll explore five of the worst Hulk iterations Marvel has ever created, and question why they were ever published.
The anime series The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You is progressing as expected, with the main character, Rentaro Aijo, steadily working towards gaining 100 girlfriends. After two seasons, he’s already won over 11, and the third season, arriving this summer, promises even more romantic interests. A sneak peek at Season 3 is available now, ahead of its July 5th premiere.
It’s frustrating because I want to love Mass Effect – it’s widely considered a sci-fi RPG masterpiece – but I just can’t connect with it. That’s why I’m really excited about the upcoming game, The Expanse: Osiris Reborn. It seems to be aiming for the same things that make Mass Effect so great, while also fixing the design elements I personally find difficult. While it’s too early to say how good it will be, I’m hopeful that The Expanse: Osiris Reborn will finally address my biggest issues with Mass Effect.
Anakin Skywalker was a classic example of a promising Jedi with a troubled path, and now, after the first season of Maul – Shadow Lord, Padawan Devon Izara seems to be following a similar trajectory. Just like George Lucas intended with Star Wars – where themes and characters echo each other – Devon shares many of Anakin’s traits, possesses incredible potential, and appears destined for a comparable journey.
Space Marine 2 is proving to be a big success! It’s already been played by 12 million people – while that’s not the number of copies sold, it’s a strong indication of how popular it is. The developers have also just revealed their plans for the game’s second year, outlining what players can expect in future updates.
Even though the main story is over, the creators continue to offer fans new ways to enjoy the series. Crunchyroll has announced that Attack on Titan: The Last Attack will return to cinemas in the U.S. and Canada on May 18, 2026, as part of its Anime Nights program. This special one-night event will feature the film in Japanese with English subtitles, and tickets are now available through Crunchyroll. The film, originally released in Japan in November 2024, combines the two final episodes of the series.
It’s surprising to me that the cozy game genre has become so popular without really venturing into one particular area. We’ve seen cozy elements combined with farming, life simulation, and even simple role-playing games, but no one has made a truly cozy fighting game yet. Considering that games like Street Fighter 6 have shown that fighting games can include exploration, stories, and character building, it feels like a perfect base for a new type of game – and I’d really enjoy playing a cozy fighting game.
