    Fantasy legend, Ursula K. Le Guin has passed away at the age of 88. Rest in Peace.

    And what a wealth of fantasy stories she left behind. She will be missed.

    Apparently DB Super is ending in March but Fuji TV says no set plans for the broadcast of a new DB show “it’s not like the series is over”.

    IMO, the best course of action would be to have a time-skip to either the "Peaceful World" Saga or Post-Z when it eventually comes back.

    Depends how long they planned on running it for. Heard talks that it would continue indefinitely & the voice actors & animators spoke about next 100 episodes. Story wise a time jump makes sense but could also deprive them of additional content to fill time in between if they plan to stretch it out.

    I think the series "ending" is great. Less Blue Rays for me to buy. (Not kidding.)

    I was thinking about how to do a digimon live action movie and I was wondering if setting it in the states would be a bad idea?

    Honestly, there's nothing inherently Japanese about the concept so it would be fine imo (of course you'd still have the obligatory accusation of white-washing). The obvious real hurdle for a LA movie is the Digimon themselves, it may be worth using puppets and other practical effects and saving CGI for giant Digimon.

    I was gonna say they should focus on a new plot/characters rather than trying to adapt a specific one. That might get around the whitewashing criticism. Also since its a new plot characters you cant say we screwed up your favorites

    Could the war doctor's duties in the time war work as a stealth game?
    Lain

    Hmm...probably not. I still think a Telltale esque game would be the best way to go about it.

    Well...Doctor Who was a thing. Farewell Capaldi, you were wasted. T_T

    I liked the use of the ww1 Armistice and the question that the first doctor was trying to answer.

    While I wouldn't call it a bad episode, after hearing all the pre-premiere praise people were lumping on it. I found the episode to be rather lacklustre.

    "Neo-Tokyo is about to explode..." So yeah, just seen AKIRA for the first time. Very eighties in style but I loved it. <3

    One of the reasons I made sure to watch AKIRA was because of the appearance of Kaneda's iconic crimson motorcycle in the upcoming film "Ready Player One" which I am hyped for.

    Speaking of 80's anime movies I enjoyed Demon City Shinjuku (but couldn't really get through Megami Tensei).

    That "Into the Spider-Verse" trailer looked kinda interesting I guess.

    I was rereading your post in the "Kamiya-DMC" thread and I think a game set over two different points in Dante's life might be interesting.

    It's certainly something different. At this point, if they do make a DMC5 and all it does is simply retread a "somebody wants the power of Sparda" then I might lose hope. :(

    So, it's Vergil vs Sephiroth on the next episode of Death Battle eh? I know who my money's on!

    Yes, I know Sephiroth has an odachi and Vergil has a tachi but no one really calls them that, so it doesn't matter.

    It's a very good series. What do you make of it so far?

    The opening is pretty nice.

    Story concept is interesting but the show can be pretty somber. Funny thing is anime tends to be more somber than live action so its a different adjustment.

    Did you ever see the movie?
    Lain
    Lain
    No, I have not seen the movie. Though I heard the lead actor is the same guy who played Kenshin in the Rurouni Kenshin Live action movies.
    Lain
    Sad news for fans of Rurouni Kenshin, I suspect this will affect the manga.

    What worries me more is Japan's lack of effective rehabilitation for these types of crimes. He'll do a stint in prison and maybe a substantial fine, but that is unlikely to solve the base problem here. :(

    Japan isn't exactly one to shy away from child porn in some way shape or form. The loophole is lolicon content, and the excuse of "if it's not real girls, then it doesn't count as child pornography" which is accepted by law, but not by the general society. Messed up I know.
    Lain

    Well, the whole "Lolicon" is somewhat of a separate debate from this one as Watsuki was caught with pornography of actual *real* girls.
