For this go-around, we’ve got a little bit of everything for everyone here – big announcements, business news, recapping a MID season, terrible bullcrap nobody likes, hilarious overreactions from light novel and manga announcements, and even a terrible correction to what we thought was something cool from the last show, only to find out it was all a multi-tiered mistake that was never going to happen to begin with. Such is life, in a way. But at least there’s a cool Devil May Cry project coming soon, along with other weird and cool projects for Netflix coming as soon as this month – this is a reminder that we are mere weeks away from PLUTO. We will talk about it. And sadly, we also have to talk about the news regarding the status of Rightstuf – or rather, the lack thereof, going forward. It won’t be fun.
At least there’s a Discotek Day happening next week along with NYCC. So we’ll have plenty to talk about next time.
