Another #otakuarchive update. Ready for AFO? Not Anime Festival Orlando but "Anime Fandom Organization" of Oklahoma City, OK. From 1991, this issue features a look at the differences between Lensman movie/books, Dirty Pair Flight 005 Conspiracy and much more.

Ahhhh this is so cool!! I've been trying to track down AFO documents for some time, but it's proven to be a pretty difficult task (closest thing I have is a Thundercon '95 program where they're mentioned in the back) Really hope to see more of these digitized!!

It's Saturday, which means it's new article day 🥰

This week, @wendeego.bsky.social explored Skip and Loafer, and webtoon When The Day Comes, and the ways both works approach the same themes of adolescence, growth, and relationships, albeit through vastly different lenses.

Remembering at AB where I pulled up the 4Kids stars singing the National Anthem video, and the audience could only see the thumbnail (which was just a still of Master Splinter), but they all groaned anyways. They knew EXACTLY what video I was about to play lol

Hey everyone, it's new article day 🥰

This week, @laurenorsini.bsky.social explores the rise of manga's popularity and accessibility. The recent Wordle upset got her thinking about how the medium's push into the mainstream changed the ways we interact with it, often for the better.

A transcript is now available for our historical fiction mangacast!

We checked out stories across history and countries, from Edo Japan to the Silk Road of the late 19th century to, of course, the French Revolution.

[Review] This series is conceptually very unique, and some might find it worth watching just for that. But its execution still leaves plenty of room for improvement.

Having read the advertorial, the author states "Where we are now reminds me of the anime industry in 2008." (complimentary) Note, in 2008: - The global financial market collapsed - Geneon died - Newtype USA died - Toonami's final broadcast aired - ADV and CPM entered death spirals ... et cetera.

[Review] Whether or not the many adventures Sherlock Hound goes on in this series are new takes on old classics or completely new adventures, they're wacky and enjoyable if a bit formulaic and repetitive, all the same.
