“Hollywood understands anime/asian culture now!” I just heard from someone at Disney that the success of KPop Demon Hunters sent the entire executive team into a “we need demon hunting anime” frenzy that lasted months Yes, they STILL think it’s anime

that's not to say that all the media in the shoujo category is romance or female protagonists (i know that it isn't, that's the point!) but if the subset you've been introduced to has those commonalities then the false equivalence is easy to make. 2/2

chloe @chloecatoya.bsky.social · 06/03/2026
The fact that English speaking countries categorize media by genre rather than demographics I think is a major part of it. If you hear shoujo being used to described media and that media also happens to be all romance or female-protagonists I can understand someone making the false connection 1/2

I voice 14 different characters in THE ELEPHANT on HBO Max, this was one of the most unique, fascinating projects i've ever worked on, three different teams led by Pendleton Ward, Rebecca Sugar + Ian Jones-Quartey, and Patrick McHale all contributed segments without ever seeing the others (1/2)

For transparency's sake, Bloodlust was recorded as an "episode 0" test episode to work out the production/quality standards and is not up to the same quality as the officially released episodes.

Another good example from the season premiere: you can’t change Gosunkugi being Akane’s creepy stalker without fundamentally changing the character You can, however, change it from “he takes sexy photos of Akane doing gymnastics” to “he tries to get photos of Akane but Ranma keeps posing for them”

Today is probably the biggest day for the fall anime season/Preview Guide and things are...not looking great on rollout today for Crunchyroll. Both MHA Final Season's first episode and the new season premiere for Spy Family are both up on Hulu. CR is 9 hrs late on MHA and it lacks EN subtitles

I get the cynicism but even when into anime more casually I noticed and was frustrated when on screen text was not translated or was just a top of top of screen sub instead of typeset with matching placements. It’s something noticeable… but I worry people will get used to the new (worse) standard.

Why did Crunchyroll’s subtitles just get worse?
A small change to operations may undermine a key differentiator for the anime streamer.

🇲🇽 Mexicans were 1.5x more likely to see Demon Slayer on opening weekend than their counterparts north of the border 🇲🇽 North America had the biggest ww opening in box office $$, but seven other territories had a bigger presence accounting for population, including Hong Kong, Korea, Chile, & Peru!
