According to the blu-ray producers the original negatives were lost due to (actual) yakuza producer mishandling! So the movie is sourced from the only 35mm print the licensor had, but luckily it's pristine as it was only screened once at Cannes. Other prints floating around were dirty and grimy.

So, Viractal is basically Dokapon Kingdom, cranked to the next level. It's a game that revels in making you hate your friends, and adds new layers that let you do some genuinely dickish things to your friends. Friendships will be ruined by this.

Pretty unfortunate news to hear about Gundam X's writer Hiroyuki Kawasaki's passing today. He also wrote Godannar, J-Decker, Goldran, The Irresponsible Captain Tylor, and eps of Nadesico, El Cazador, Eureka Seven AO, and the Halo Legends short Homecoming. Passed away back on the 23rd of January.

This year is the 25th anniversary of Invader ZIM, and you can get this disgustingly overstuffed new print by ME, an actual ZIM character designer. How? Pre-order my cool new monster comedy comic SHOCK CITY PUNKS and I’ll send you the print for $4 (plus shipping). Offer dies April 21st!

ANNOUNCEMENT! Text pointing toward an Invader ZIM print reads “Want my bad-ass exclusive print?” Text pointing toward the cover of my new graphic novel, SHOCK CITY PUNKS, reads “Pre-order my bad-ass book!”

Instructions on how to get the Invader ZIM print. 1. Pre-order SHOCK CITY PUNKS. 2. Send proof of purchase to PROOF@aaronalexovich.com. 3. I’ll send you a link to buy the exclusive ZIM print for $4 plus shipping.

An ad for SHOCK CITY PUNKS, in stores April 21st. The book cover shows a happy green monster girl, a screaming human boy, and a shifty zombie kid all jumping away from an atomic explosion. There’s a review quote from Kirkus reading “GRUESOME HILARITY!”

Told y'all. If it's a game key card, it's: 1) Not worth buying "physical" because you don't get the game on the cart 2) Not worth buying full price at that point, because they don't respect your storage, why should you respect their bottom line? This is effectively a 12% discount

What if they made a show about how capitalism doesn't just cause harm, but relishes the opportunity to kill, making a spectacle of it for a cruel ruling class? What if it was directed by the biggest arthouse weirdo who has risen within the industry recently? What if Souta Ueno's Shiboyugi was real?

As you read the news today, watch who phrases the news as an "illegal invasion and regime change" versus "bringing democracy". It'll tell you everything you need to know about the news source you're reading, and frankly should decide whether you ever read them seriously again.

Reactions to the Chiikawa movie announcement are one of the funniest examples of how myopic the view of vocal anime fans overseas is. Trying to frame it in relation to Kagurabachi and painting it as a lesser project, when Chiikawa is a social phenomenon on a different level altogether? Lol
