Are you excited about the new anime he is releasing?
Being a fan of his I know I am .
What do you think it will be like...suggestions?...I have no ideas
Unquestionably excited. It'll also be very interesting to see what he does with a TV series. I've seen Perfect Blue and Millenium Actress (haven't seen Tokyo Godfathers yet) and both were great. But a great movie director does not alsways translate into a great TV director and vice versa. The format are very different, for example each and every episode of a TV series requires some sort of reward for the viewer (or a cliffhanger).

I can't wait to see it, though as usual there's been very little actually revealed about it. I'm going to see TG next week, and I can't wait to see that too.

At least he's only been given 13 episodes, which means he won't be forced to add filler.
As far as I'm concerned, he can fill to his heart's content. Kon's filler would be better than most people's main plots.

Somewhere between xxxHoLiC and Hell Girl lies Hell is Dark with No Flowers.― Somewhere between xxxHoLiC and Hell Girl lies Hell is Dark with No Flowers. If you think I've made that comparison before, you're right – Matsuri's Phantom Tales of the Night can also be described that way. But Hell is Dark with No Flowers, based on the novel of the same name by Yoru Michio, is the better use of the descrip...
Jean-Karlo looks at Lynch's influence across video game history, from Zelda to Persona.― Welcome back, folks! Longtime readers might recall that back in October of 2023, I found an old copy of the Izuna: Legend of the Unemployed Ninja artbook from Japan. I had mentioned that artist Yoshida On had also made a doujinshi featuring some of his early sketches for the characters and how I likely would nev...
Rebecca Silverman talks to Atanassova about her history with TOKYOPOP, the publisher's LGBTQ+ imprints, and how they're trying to maintain readers' trust.―
As a manga publisher, TOKYOPOP has undergone some difficulties, a statement some readers may think is an understatement. But in its new incarnation, the publisher has made a lot of good changes with solid choices in titles and a dedication to pr...

If any of you are outsiders sitting on the fence, take it from me: This game is pretty neat!― I've always wanted to dig into the beloved-but-niche JRPGs from Nippon Ichi Software (a.k.a. “NIS”), especially the Disgaea games, but I've always been intimidated by their reputations for containing complex and finicky systems that require a real commitment to number crunching and min-maxing. When the oppo...
Pocket Camp Complete is perfectly designed to be playable in bite-sized chunks, a relaxing experience when you just need a brief moment of escape.― I am not, by and large, a mobile gamer. I'll play games on my clunky old Galaxy A03 every so often, but it's rarely my first choice of platform. That's important to mention because Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp Complete was a game I found myself coming ba...
Miles Atherton Thomas crunched the data on one of anime's biggest sub-genres. What makes isekai anime popular, and what kinds of isekai are fans watching the most?― The State of Isekai, 2025 If you wanted to characterize “the biggest trends in anime of the last decade,” you might be inclined to narrow in on anime's increasingly global presence or the exploding volume of new TV anime being produced....
It may have taken a few tries, but with this second season of Nocturne, the animated Castlevania franchise has finally produced a true masterpiece.― Castlevania is one of the series that I have been privileged to cover since the original Netflix animated project premiered back in 2017.
