Latest Naruto chapter is awesome.

Are we going to see Sasuke take on the rest of the battlefield, the ones going to help Naruto? He has to do something pretty big to show how he has matched Naruto in strength because clearly Naruto at the moment is very powerful.

Naruto anime is just as great as ever. Really looking forward to this battle that was foreshadowed.

Bleach anime is back, and it was a decent start to the last arc. Seems like they aren't going to move slow with this story. Interested to see what this will be about.

Very touching episode or Naruto. I wish we could see more episodes with Minato, he's such a bad ass. I would watch an anime based on his story for sure.

For sure. Those 2 episodes were just amazing! I loved the animation they used when the fox first appeared in the village... and the fight between Minato and "Tobi" was just brilliant.

Just watched the latest episodes of Naruto. I don't usually as i read the manga but i like to watch certain parts animated. What a great set of episodes. From the moment he first met his mother to when they said good bye. It was brilliant. I don't know how anyone wouldn't get teary or cry from watching that, if you didn't you're a robot.

Next big drama moment will be

Gaara fighting his father

This weeks episode of Naruto was lame. What should of been an awesome fight was ruined by the B team animation and it feels like a lot was left out compared to the manga. And next weeks episode looks like filler.

You should've got used to it by now, every time something awesome happens in manga; you can bet that there will be filler in anime.

B team animation?

I was disappointed about the animation for naruto's attack. I hoped it would be a bit more, i don't know, cooler looking?

Actually next week's episode is not a spoiler and was part of the manga (check out chapter 507).

It shows a bit of Kisame's pre-akatsuki past and how he came to join akatsuki

:)

I was thinking about a adaptation of Bleach live action just last night, after watching both Gantz and Gantz 2 Perfect Answer live action.... And damn guys, if you want to see a manga done right in live action, watch those please. Just amazing. You have to watch both though. If you just stop at the 1st, you won't get the complete story, which makes everything just fit together nicely.

First, Gantz live action movie 1. Very well done. Has a slow start and takes a bit to get going, but once it does, it is just thrills and action all the way through. They stay pretty faithful to the anime/manga, but they do deviate in a few areas. Don't hold it against them, every movie has to deviate in some way, as somethings just don't translate well into film. When the movie ends, you are left just wanting more, just how the anime did.

Gantz 2 Pefect Answer... A huge deviation of the manga, because well, they wanted to finish the movie, and the manga hasn't even ended or given a clue how it will. But the movie is still pure thriller and fun. It starts off faster, 5 months after the first ends. It does bring in some aspects of the manga, but gives them a little twist. There is a lot more sword fighting in this, and it is very very well done. The end of this movie was good. Not great, but it seemed to wrap everything up nicely I thought.

The special effects in both movies were done very well. There is gore, explosions, and blood everywhere when the fights get going. CGI is used very little, but when it is used, it doesn't look bad, but believable. You are never transported out of the movie with that feeling of, "damn that doesn't look right." Everything just seems to fit. I was very very hesitant to watch these, as I am a huge fan of both manga/anime versions of Gantz. But these movies are worth it for any fan of either. Having knowledge of the manga helps a lot though in sort of understanding what is not told directly.

If they could make a bleach, in the same fashion as they did gantz 2.... I think we would all be very well pleased...

Bleach Manga is out, and isn't answering much. They just started this new and final arc though, so they have to build up on certain things first. It is interesting...

Naruto Manga was a little confusing... the panels just didn't seem to portray everything clearly. But looking forward to the siblings meeting each other next chapter and hoping that Sasuke gets some sense knocked into him :p

Bleach Anime was entertaining. I liked seeing how Ichigo got his powers back in this, and how the captains arrived seemed to be more thrilling than it was drawn out. Looking forward to the fights up ahead in this :)

Haven't watched Naruto anime yet, so no opinions.

Bleach anime is ENDING for good (maybe they'll release an animated movie), also one more kick in the balls that I heard about is that Hollywood is making a live action adaptation of the Bleach Manga (not Bleach anime).

Yes you can throw up now.

Are we sure that they're not just going to do something similar to Gintama where production of the anime stopped until the manga had enough material to be animated? They'd have to run at least a year+ of fillers for the anime to keep it up, so if that's what they're doing, I'd be fine with that. But if they're not going to animate this final arc, that would suck.

Na, the current arc Bleach is on now will be the final. It just started, and is supposed to last about a year or a little more though.

Why does the article say it's ending March 27 then? The Fullbring arc is almost done in the anime (which would align with March 27), I was talking about the current arc in the manga. The current arc in the manga is supposed to go on for a while, so that's why I'm wonder if, since they're so close, they're ending animation on Bleach right now instead of having to do a filler arc until they have enough material to animate the current manga arc. And my hope is that once the manga gets sufficient material out they animate it.

Correct. They are ending the anime until the manga gets far enough ahead. As it is, they are only on I believe, chapter 3 of the current arc... So they need to get around chapter 15ish before anything is drawn.

    • You can't remove Safari though. Or almost any other bundled app for that matter, and pretty much all of them are useless to me (and there are is a heap of them compared to Windows). I'll much rather take Edge than Safari, at least it can be highly customized vs. Safari. I'll take a PC with ten Edges over a Mac any day though as I can't stand all the limitation and painfully frustrationg restriction that make me dislike their stuff with a burning passion, iOS included (especially iOS).

    • Glow 26.9 by Razvan Serea Glow provides detailed reporting on every hardware component in your computer, saving you valuable time typically spent searching for CPU, motherboard, RAM, graphics card, and other stats. With Glow, all the information is conveniently presented in one clean interface, allowing you to easily access and review the comprehensive hardware details of your system. Glow provides detailed information on various system aspects, including OS, motherboard, processor, memory, graphics card, storage, network, battery, drivers, and services. The well-organized format ensures easy access to the required information. You can export all the gathered data to a plain text file, facilitating sharing with others for troubleshooting purposes. No installation needed. Just decompress the archive, launch the executable, and access computer-related information. Glow runs on Windows 11 and Windows 10 64-bit versions. Glow 26.9 changelog: New Features The processor hardware detection engine has been significantly enhanced beyond traditional Intel and AMD architectures. Native support is now available for modern platforms such as Apple Silicon (M-Series) and the newly introduced NVIDIA Spark. In addition, all ARM-based processors can now be accurately distinguished between ARM32 and ARM64 architectures, providing precise hardware reporting. This marks a major milestone for Glow's hardware detection capabilities. The RAM manufacturer identification algorithm has been expanded. JEDEC vendor codes for popular brands such as Patriot, PNY, Team Group, GeIL, Lexar (Longsys), and Asgard/Gloway have been integrated into the database. This significantly reduces the likelihood of incorrect or "Unknown Manufacturer" results and improves overall hardware detection accuracy. New Public IP Address and Internet Service Provider (ISP) features have been added to the Network section. To ensure reliability, this information is retrieved from the trusted service ipwho.is. When Hiding Mode is enabled, no requests are sent and these features remain hidden, as they may expose sensitive information. The search engine used in the Installed Drivers, Installed Services, and Installed Applications sections has been enhanced. You can now perform more flexible and accurate searches using initials, partial matches, and loosely arranged character sequences. The TS Preloader loading bar has been rebuilt using our modern TS Custom Controls graphics library, developed entirely in-house. As a result of this infrastructure upgrade, the loading bar now features smooth rendering and rounded corners that align with the visual style of Windows 11. [TS Updater] A new validation algorithm has been added to check whether the target application is currently running before the update process begins. Bug Fixes Resolved a condition that could prevent TS Preloader from shutting down safely during rare application crash scenarios. Fixed a text alignment issue in the Network section affecting the display of DNS addresses. Alignment is now rendered correctly. [TS Updater] Fixed an issue that could prevent the updated application's executable "*.exe" file from being located after the update process. [TS Updater] Fixed a bug that could leave outdated "*.sha256" files in the application directory after an update. [TS Updater] Fixed a rare issue that could cause subfolders to be moved into the root directory after an update. [TS Updater] Fixed an issue during the first launch that could cause flickering and a temporary white window appearance due to Windows Defender interactions. Changes A small improvement has been made to the internet connectivity detection algorithm. Connectivity checks are now performed in the background with minimal impact on the user interface thread. The keyboard shortcuts in the top menu have been reorganized and simplified to provide a consistent experience across all Türkaysoft applications and to avoid potential conflicts with standard Windows shortcuts. The TS Preloader splash image has been updated with a Türkiye-themed stadium design to celebrate Türkiye's qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup—its first appearance in 24 years. Congratulations, Türkiye! The TS Custom Controls module has been updated to version 26.6, delivering improved stability and a more polished visual appearance. [TS Updater] The application icon has been redesigned to provide a more modern and refined look. Note: Always unzip the program before using it. Otherwise you may get an error.
