00:00On the official site for the anime adaptation of If My Wife Became an Elementary School Student,
00:04a new promotional video for the project was revealed. The video confirms that the premiere
00:09is scheduled for the fall 2024 season. The anime adaptation of The Webtoon Tower of God
00:14unveiled a new promotional video for the second season of the project. The video confirms that
00:19the premiere is scheduled for July 7 in Japan and shows a snippet of the opening theme song
00:24titled Rise Up and performed by NiziU. A previous leak already assured that this second season will
00:29have a duration of two parts, i.e. six semesters of broadcasting. Although there is no confirmation,
00:35it makes sense considering that it will adapt The Return of the Prince arc and The Battle of the
00:39Factory arc, which occur many years after the beginning of the story. Through her official
00:44Twitter account, author Rumiko Takahashi shared a special video confirming that the Mondorama
00:49One-Half will have a new anime adaptation, i.e. a remake. According to the statement,
00:53more details about this project will be announced during a live broadcast scheduled for July 17
00:58at 1800 hours, Japan time. The anime Unnamed Memory announced the production of a second season.
01:04The premiere is scheduled for the winter 2025 season, and the announcement included a promotional
01:09video and a visual. The anime Tsukimaki Moonlit Fantasy announced the production of a third season.
01:15The release did not reveal production details or a scheduled premiere date, but did reveal a visual
01:20of the main characters opening a keg of sake to celebrate the news. A press release announced that
01:25the popular romantic comedy light novels I Ended Up Marrying the Girl and My Class,
01:29One Hated the Most will be getting an anime adaptation. The release listed a special video
01:34and that Hinaki Yano will play protagonist Akane Sakuramori, but did not reveal production details
01:39or a scheduled release date. Publisher Shueisha informed that the manga One-Punch Man will enter
01:44a two-month suspension due to Murata will make some adjustments and preparations for the
01:48serialization. Consequently, the manga is scheduled to have a new chapter until August 22. The manga
01:54Sonobu's Doll Wakui wa Suru is one of the romantic comedies that still endures in the manga world
02:00and is one of the most relevant of the moment. The story of Marin Kitagawa and Wakana Gojo
02:05jumped to stardom after the broadcast of the anime adaptation in 2022, but there was never
02:10any news about the production. However, while waiting for news about the promised sequel of
02:14the project, the manga has advanced at a slow pace with monthly updates and a new story arc that,
02:19contrary to the cheerful and romantic atmosphere that characterized the franchise,
02:23now shows drama and sadness for the two protagonists of this relationship. This is
02:28causing the manga readers to be upset with the series. Neon Genesis Evangelion, one of the most
02:33iconic anime of the 1990s and the opening theme song of the series became one of the most recognized
02:38songs in anime history, both domestically and internationally. Now, the singer behind this
02:43iconic song has decided to take a firm stance against the use of artificial intelligence
02:48via Yahoo Japan and it has been reported that Yoko Takahashi, known for her rendition of A
02:53Cruel Angel's Thesis, will not be participating in the first concert event Sakura Hall Shibuya
02:59organized by the Ikebukuro Animation Philharmonic Orchestra. The reason for his absence is due to
03:04the use of promotional material created by AI for the event. The manga Ainz Zero came to an end with
03:10the publication of its 293rd chapter in Weekly Shonen Magazine. Since its inception in June 2018,
03:16this series has maintained a constant story for six years. What stands out is that Hiro Mashima,
03:22in his 26-year career as a mangaka, has never taken a break, always offering weekly content
03:27to his readers. The publisher Shueisha issued a press release to inform that the Manga Boku
03:32No Hero Academia will end with its August 5th chapter in Japan. Consequently, considering that
03:38the work is currently in suspension, there are only five chapters left for the end of the manga.
03:43A recent survey conducted by the Japanese research company Alpha, Alpha Generation Labs has
03:48revealed the anime and manga preferred by Generation Alpha, i.e. those born between 2010 and 2024. The
03:55results of this survey have generated great interest, highlighting entertainment consumption
03:59trends among the youngest. According to the survey, the anime Demon Slayer Kametsu no Yaiba
04:04is positioned as the undisputed favorite, receiving an impressive 40% of the votes. In contrast,
04:10One Piece, despite remaining in the top five, only received half of that percentage. The survey
04:15collected data from 600 children and parents of children from the first grade of elementary school,
04:21approximately five to six years old, to the third grade of junior high school,
04:25approximately 13 to 14 years old. Both the children and their parents, on behalf of their children,
04:30were invited to share their favorite anime and manga, allowing multiple choices to be selected.
04:36The results were as follows. Demon Slayer Kametsu no Yaiba, 40%. Detective Conan,
04:4127.8%. Spy X Family, 23.3%. One Piece, 20.8%. Ashinoko, 19.3%. Alpha Generation Labs has
04:51announced that it will conduct the same survey in late 2024, which could provide deeper insight
04:56into the anime and manga preferences of younger viewers in Japan. In modern Japanese society,
05:02interpersonal connections seem to be weakening, especially among men. Several studies have
05:06highlighted that the proportion of men who do not spend time with friends or other people is
05:11significantly higher in Japan compared to other developed countries. This reality has generated
05:16debate as to whether these men truly enjoy their loneliness, whether they feel it is a burden,
05:20or whether they are simply pretending to enjoy it, and an article entitled Why Are Japanese Men
05:25the Loneliest in the World has put the spotlight on this issue. According to the article, Japan's
05:30social capital, an indicator that measures trust and interpersonal relationships, according to the
05:34UK's Legatum Institute 2017 edition, ranks the country 101st out of 149 countries, being the
05:42lowest among developed nations. One of the most surprising data is the percentage of men who do
05:47not spend time with friends or acquaintances. In a comparative study among 21 countries,
05:52Japanese men topped the list with 16.7% admitting to not spending time with friends,
05:57compared to only 1% in Sweden and 4% in the United States. However, this phenomenon cannot
06:03be interpreted solely as a problem of unwanted loneliness. In Japan, the culture of Ohitori-sama,
06:09or enjoying activities alone, is deeply rooted. Many people find satisfaction and fulfillment in
06:15pursuing hobbies and activities alone. For some, this lifestyle is not a sign of isolation,
06:20but a conscious choice that allows them to make better use of their time. For some time now,
06:25the voice actor Toru Furuya, known for being the voice of Sabo in One Piece or Yamcha in Dragon
06:30Ball, among others, has been making news on the internet, although in this case for a very sad
06:35reason, as he admitted to having had a relationship with a young girl underage. He even got the girl
06:40pregnant, forcing her not to have the baby, so his image has only been declining over time,
06:45having to leave many jobs because of this situation, in what seems to be just the beginning.
06:50Japanese voice actor Junji Majima, known for his roles in popular anime series such as My Hero
06:55Academia and Boruto, Naruto Next Generations, has offered a public apology after making insensitive
07:02comments about women on his social media account. Reception of the actor's statements has been
07:06divided. According to Japanese news website Oricon, Majima posted a statement on his official
07:11Twitter account in response to controversial comments he made on June 20, 2024. The now
07:17deleted posts showed Majima complaining about women shifting seats around him out of fear on a
07:21sparsely crowded train, expressing his confusion and believing that such actions also made men
07:27uncomfortable in such situations. However, many online users pointed out that Japan has an
07:32unfortunate history of harassment of women on public transportation, particularly on trains
07:37and subways. This problem led the Japanese government to introduce women-only carriages
07:42in the early 2000s to combat attempted assaults. This weekend finally aired one of the most
07:47anticipated episodes of Mushoku Tensei, Jobless Reincarnation, affectionately known as the Roxotrico
07:53by fans of the franchise. In this episode, devastated by the death of his father, Rudeus
07:58remembers his parents from his previous life and regrets all the bad things he did to them.
08:02Roxy then comes to his room to comfort Rudeus and spends the night having sex with him. Evidently,
08:07the sex scene between Rudeus and Roxy was one of the most anticipated moments for fans, but the
08:12adaptation has been disappointing in this regard. In fact, some key details from Volume 12 of the
08:18original Light Novels ended up being omitted in this episode, highlighting the conversation between
08:22Roxy, the line allies, and Geese about Paul's death and Rudeus' depression, and from where
08:27precisely the idea that Rudeus needs sex comes from. According to fans, the omission of these
08:32important details has tarnished Roxy's reputation since there was no background to her decision to
08:37sleep with Rudeus and it seemed that she only did it to take advantage of Rudeus' weakness.
08:42The gubernatorial election in Tokyo, Japan has gotten off to a tumultuous start with perpetual
08:47candidate Kawaii Yusuke, who has joined forces with adult actress Sakurai Mio to end nudity
08:52censorship laws and promote the importance of freedom of expression. Kawaii Yusuke was spotted
08:57alongside Sakurai Mio, self-described as the world's most adventurous gyaru, putting up
09:02provocative campaign posters featuring the model in near nudity. The candidate's white poster
09:07promotes freedom of expression and advocates an end to laws censoring nudity in Japan. The black
09:12poster, on the other hand, is essentially a Japanese meme that questions which is truly crazy,
09:18her or the deranged society we live in. Sakurai Mio previously endorsed Joker candidate Kawaii
09:23Yusuke when he dressed up as the mask to promote polygamy and fight Japan's declining birth rate,
09:29however, after receiving major backlash from the public for using loopholes and mocking the
09:33election process, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department issued a warning to Kawaii for violating
09:39Tokyo's public nuisance prevention ordinance. In response, Kawaii Yusuke posted a new poster
09:44on his Twitter account, saying, since I can't put up sexy Sakurai Mio posters anymore, I'll put this
09:50one up instead. I promise to turn Shibuya Ward into a special cannabis zone. If I become governor,
09:55I will legalize cannabis and rename Shibuya Ward to Shibutani Ward. These were the news of the week,
10:00thanks for watching until the end, don't forget to check the other videos of the channel.
