Anime Spotlight #78: My Hero Academia (The Final Update)

Image
Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. the Quirky Animeister This may not be a milestone issue like the last big My Hero Academia  compilation  (my fiftieth Anime Spotlight ), but since it's still the month of my birth— Superhero Ani-May —and I've finally walked the Road to 10k Views with the hope of going Plus Ultra and beyond, I'm using this as a celebration moment (even though I planned to do what I'm doing here anyway) by covering everything MHA  in chronological order. When I posted the original review , Deku had just had a Death Battle against Asta from Black Clover ( series , movie ), and at the time of writing my 50th Anime Spotlight , Deku had returned to Death Battle for a clash with Miles Morales. So I started things off by giving my thoughts on them. The battle of the powerless protagonists sports better fight choreography despite relying mainly on low-res sprite animation. The "Asta wins because he can sneeze hard enough to make his body FTL in his sleep...

Just the Ticket #218: Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla

Image
Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. The Ticketmaster. As of this writing on May 14, I have officially surpassed my ten-thousand-view goal for the month. Thank you all, and I hope to hit another milestone in the half of May that remains. And because I was pedantically curious and needed an intro for this week's edition of Goj -Year- ra , I thought I'd talk about something from another culture that I barely understand beyond a handful of words: the Japanese language. See, when I researched Godzilla movies with "versus" in the title, it was translated consistently as " tai " (the kanji , 対), which Wikipedia translates back as "against" in the majority of cases. The problem as it relates to today's film is that there are three titled  Gojira tai Mekagojira : 1974's Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla , which I'm reviewing today, 1993's Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla II (which was just called Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla in Japan because that's not ...

Zenescope - Omnibusted #58: Myths & Legends - The Summoning

Image
Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. The Omnibuster. I hope everyone had a happy Mother's Day on Sunday because I did (even though I didn't make space to mention it in Monday's post ). Most of the gifting was already taken care of before the big day (onions, tomato, pepper, mint, and fennel plants for our above-ground garden), which left the focus on food, so I made breakfast (my specialty meal of eggs, bacon, fruit, and the best waffles I've made or eaten since the last time I made waffles) and some store-bought shrimp and onion rings for lunch so she wouldn't have to cook...much. A fairly stress-free day, and I'm happy she enjoyed it. The question now is whether or not I will enjoy the final arc of Myths & Legends (until Zenescope brought the branding back for quarterly One-Shots in the 2020s). Grimm Fairy Tales - Myths & Legends: The Summoning As a reminder, Myths & Legends was a long, limited series that serves a two-fold purpose (at minimum) of ...
