@castlepointanime was just a few weeks ago, but I still had a wonderful time! With back to back trips, I haven't had much time to edit photos, but I promise to have them done ASAP!
From Nigeria: An Anime Community At Its Brightest Yet: Bolaji Akinwande explores Nigeria's anime fan community. He explores the fandom's growth, particularly in recent years, which has been aided by the growth of streaming services like Netflix, as well as the rise of anime-centric online spaces.
I'm enjoying One Piece on Netflix, as someone that hasn't watched the anime I can't complain about it not matching up.
I can tell it's a bit oversimplified, knowing how long and drawn out anime can get sometimes it's not a surprise. Fight scenes can literally last 3 episodes!
Sorry for waiting on this one, was kind of hoping my home lemmy server would come back from 502; but it doesn't seem like it, in the meantime I'll keep posting these and see if I can establish a second backup community for those who care.
I think I make for a good Mamoru. I put this together at the last minute, for my friend @ccgreywitch, since she said she was going to dinner as Usagi Tsukino, and I decided to do a casual cosplay with her. 😁
If you liked Birdie Wing and all the other golf anime coming out recently, you have COVID-19 to thank for that?!?
No, seriously! It's an unexpected impact of the pandemic that is fascinating with facts to back it up. You can learn all about it from my latest column for Anime Herald!
Sakurajima.moe is an inclusive Glitch Mastodon server for fans and content creators interested in Japanese anime, manga, games etc. The server is highly moderated to provide a safe, non-toxic environment.
This is one of the reasons why some seiyuu have people that vet their posts before they're uploaded to the internet. STALKERS.
Preventing personally identifiable information from leaking and adding buffer time between IRL location and post time location is a necessary skill for famous people who don't want to be followed.
Hey all! I'm getting close to finishing the @zenkaikon photos! My lens has been repaired and is back home! I hope to have them posted this week! But for now, enjoy so selfies with me and my cosplay friendos!
Have y'all seen the newest surprise series that just debuted on Crunchyroll?! It's the mysteriously named "Test Series"
It’s doing pretty well. 4.5 ⭐️’s! Tons of comments. And it even features a playful cat bouncing a ball alongside an exciting/ominous countdown!
I couldn't find which studio is spearheading this. Or anything about the voice actors. Or plot. But hey, this kind of no advertising treatment worked for The Boy and the Heron, right?
In a recent anime industry report, about half the industry workers work over 225 monthly hours.
About half of people in the Japanese anime industry said they work over 225 hours per month, highlighting the long working hours compared with other fields, a recent survey by an industry association showed.
The number greatly surpasses the full-time workers' average of 163.5 hours in the health ministry's survey for 2023, according to the Nippon Anime & Film Culture Association.
This is simply not sustainable and we know for a long time the working conditions in the Japanese animation industry is just bad.
i like all sorts of things but i really like reading, writing, gaming, anime, manga, and music
i like to write a lot and i'm hoping to post my projects through here mainly, but feel free to interact! i like meeting new people and always looking to improve :)
i'm still a beginner but i hope you'll enjoy my works, even a little bit!
Solo leveling also had a decent season finale. This was being hyped as "the" show of the season, and although I'd have placed three or four other shows higher, this was still a show that grew to be something I looked forward to each week. Some very interesting events in the finale have made the next cour look like one to watch out for.
Among Isekai titles, #TheWrongWayToUseHealingMagic stands out as a show that isn’t a one-man show centered around a single character who came to a new world, and one that raises the stakes without appearing too dark.
It addresses the topic of fighting in an actual war with seriousness, and manages to NOT have the existence of healing magic make that seem too inconsequential.
I really liked the characters and how they all bonded and influenced each other. The (entirely unromantic) relationship of Usato and Rose is a gem.
