[Official] Anime/Manga Thread


Recommended Posts

Yes, this week for anime/manga has been a great treat for those of us.

The bleach anime was just as epic as ever, fleshing out what the manga failed to do. Just brilliant, and I can not wait for the finale!

Naruto anime is back on track, and even after such a long break, it was a great return and start to an insane chain of events.

Naruto manga was just epic, and next week will reveal some secrets I'm sure :)

Bleach manga just teased us for the whole damn chapter, but the last picture frame seemed interesting.

@Capricorn

Seems like there's gonna be more action in the third episode of Gundam UC :)

EDIT: Just watched the new episode of Bleach. It was awesome. One of my favourite scenes was when Ichigo literally shut Aizen up midspeech :pinch:

Indeed, and the plot is about to get bigger as well. Can't wait to see the rest of the story in anime form :D

glad he did it! Aizen kept bluffing/trush talking "i pwn anyone any day bla bla bla" ......... ishigo was like "shut the hell up!!!" :laugh:

Truly Epic. I also love how conceded Aizen is, so where he believes it is his power destroying the world around him. Then Ichigo is like, oh, you didn't notice? That was all me.

I still use CR, don't know about supporting anime industry (after what viz is doing here). I'll seeto the end of my sub if I want to continue or not.

BTW Bleach was excellant, not compared to the last one ofcource. Does anyone know if they'll continue after aisen arc.

I don't think they can. It will be interesting to see what filler they do though because Ichigo will have no powers. Perhaps an arc following another character or one set in soul society.

I say they can't because they are only a few chapters into the current arc.

The current arc that is taking place after the Aizen Saga is a short arc, that will set up the next main arc. Ichigo will most likely get his old powers back or some form of a new one, and then we will get some sort of villain from Ichigo's family past I believe. I think they will delve deeper into the past, and show us why Ichigo is who he is, besides from the hygouku(?) part lol

Right, i did hear the current arc will be short. Still I dunno how short.

so he gets his fullbring, hopefully this chapter and then what, a quick scuffle with someone and he'll get his powers back?

I hope that is true but i still see a filler happening in the anime. Maybe just a shorter one and not one in bounto(sp?) length or Naruto style and give some past stories for a few weeks.

Sorta....

I feel this short arc will give us a good glimpse as to why Ichigo's Dad was in hiding, along with the secret of their power. I believe that his Dad most likely used the Final Getsuga like Ichigo, and up until the Arancarrs showed up, he was without power. Of course, this is all my speculation, but it sort of makes sense. His dad does say how it has been a long time and how it feels good after so long.... so hard to say if he is just talking about fighting, or his powers in general... I really hope we don't see too much of this Full Bring stuff, but more of just a way to bring upon his powers and some history revealing.

After much googling, I have decided to swallow my shame and consult the almighty otakus of Neowin!

I just finished Toradora. Coupled with an album from Ryuichi Sakamoto I got my hands on around the same time, it was an extremely emotional experience. I'd love a series that comes close to being that good to follow it up with, idc about a good/bad ending.

If anyone could help me, I would much appreciate it.

If you haven't seen them yet, Clannad and then Clannad: After Story.

    • Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion gives the Slayer a brutal Chain Spear by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Last year, id Software released Doom: The Dark Ages as a prequel to its reboot series, offering a look at the legendary Slayer character during an ancient war between Hell and Heaven. Today, at the Xbox Games Showcase, id Software returned with a new announcement that unveiled Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations as its first story expansion. The expansion will see the Slayer being betrayed and cast into a "merciless purgatory only escapable by confronting haunting truths." Somehow, there is one ally in all this chaos seemingly attempting to help our protagonist escape his fate. Players will be ascending this prison and fighting plenty of new demons and abominations as they work to free the Slayer's followers. One new aspect of the expansion will be the Chain Spear. This new weapon is described by the studio as a "uniquely satisfying combat system that rewards mastery with a potent combination of power and mobility." Check out the trailer below to see the new weapon in action, where the Slayer is seen using it to even pin enemies to walls. id Software is also preparing a free update to all owners of Doom: The Dark Ages that will land alongside the new paid expansion. Dubbed the Ripatorium 3.0 update, this will add more customization options, an improved pass code generation system, and preset options for players diving into the game's arena challenge mode. Expansion buyers will also receive additional maps, demons, and new weapons to use in this mode in addition to the story levels. Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion is out on July 7 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $19.99 price tag. Those who own the Premium Edition or the Collector's Bundle will receive the expansion for no extra cost as well.
    • Hyped for this. Replayed the remasters recently and they're so well done, and Crash 4 was great too. I trust this team to deliver.
    • Ninja Theory's new Hellblade game is action-focused and set in Purgatory by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Ninja Thery has been building its award-winning Hellblade series since 2017, delivering Senua's Sacrifice and Senua's Saga since then. Today at the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase, the studio had a brand-new installment announcement featuring Senua again, but this time, she is in a version of purgatory, and the focus is on the action. Simply named Senua, this new entry is described as a "full-on action-adventure" experience, delivering an expanded focus on combat, puzzle-solving, and freedom of exploration. The developer says that it is keeping the same high production values and storytelling features of the previous games while giving what players have been asking for in the gameplay department. The entirety of Ninja Theory is now working on Senua, giving the project much more manpower than ever before, while also letting the team draw on its action roots from Devil May Cry and prior titles. However, the studio also confirmed that its previously announced Project Mara horror experience is no longer in development. Alongside snappier traversal moves, Senua will be able to take stealth and direct combat routes. She has access to her own sword, plus any enemy weapons as well, with dual wielding also being an option for most dropped melee swords, axes, and other weapons. Outside of melee combat, Senua will be able to use special abilities that let her alter the reality around her. The world is said to be about twice the size of Hellblade 2. While this won't be an open-world experience, the linear story will let players explore their surroundings further than before. The story of Senua will be set after the events of previous Hellblade titles, with our protagonist being stuck in her own version of Purgatory. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well. "She’s trapped between life and death on a quest to reach the afterlife and be reunited with the ones that she’s loved and lost," adds the studio. "Her belief is that by healing the wounds of her life, she can find the peace that is the key that unlocks the gate to the afterlife." Senua is releasing on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PlayStation 5 sometime in 2027.
    • Windows has had it, it's called camera frame server. I recall when it was first introduced in an early Windows 10 release it caused issues and there was a registry entry to disable it. Seems like they disabled it by default at some point. Windows 11 brought that toggle to the settings app (not just registry) a while ago.
