I’m Shaking and Crying RN, It’s the End of Chainsaw Man | Anime Dispatch Week of 3/14
Chainsaw Man is rapidly approaching its end, and fans are spiraling. Meanwhile (at the Hall of Justice) author Tatsuki Fujimoto is avoiding addressing the elephant in the room with a fantastic new tactic: by addressing the beaver in the room instead.
Netflix has its paws on yet another live-action adaptation of a beloved anime—this time, it’s Samurai Champloo, and fans are once again, rioting.
British sex icon and Emperor of Sound Matt Berry is being tapped to play the villain in the upcoming sequel to the smash-hit Minecraft movie, and I am so excited I am literally shaking and crying rn.
