00:34including Kenta Ihara on scripts and Yuji Hosugo on character design and animation direction.

00:41The franchise, based on the light novels by Carlos Zen and Shinobu Shinotsuki, debuted in 2017 and

00:49gained widespread popularity thanks to its story about a child soldier possessed by the soul of a

00:55Japanese salaryman fighting in a magical world at war. Rimuru Tempest's literary journey has

01:02officially come to an end. Micro Magazine announced on Saturday that the light novel Tensei Shitara,

01:10Slime Dataken, written by Fuse, concluded after 11 years of publication with the release of its 23rd

01:17volume. The work began in 2013 on Shusutsuka Ninaru and began physical publication in May 2014 with

01:27illustrations by Mitzvah. Since then, the franchise has reached over 56 million copies in circulation,

01:35also adding a successful manga adaptation by Taiki Kawakami, currently with 30 volumes published.

01:41In the anime realm, the story continues to expand. Studio 8-Bit remains at the helm of the project,

01:49with a fourth season confirmed and a second film, Tears of the Azure Sea, scheduled for release on

01:56February 27, 2026. In celebration of the 15th anniversary of the anime Yosuga no Sora, Japanese

02:27customizable from the position of the body to the eyes, wig, and costume. This level of detail seeks to

02:35faithfully recreate the appearance and presence of the original character from Sphere. Luxury comes at a

02:42price. The figure retails for 880,000 yen, 5,900 US dollars, including tax, and includes two special

02:51bonuses, a ring and perfume designed to complement the buyer's experience. The anime industry has surprised

02:59everyone with an unexpected announcement. Midori Taiyama's manga Girl Crush will be adapted into a

03:05television anime series, which will be broadcast on TBS. To celebrate the news, a special visual drawn by

03:13the author and a commemorative promotional video have been released. The production is being handled by

03:19TBS Television in collaboration with Enishaya, and it is already recognized as the first Japanese anime

03:25to take K-pop as its central theme. Although details about the cast, staff, and release date have not

03:32yet been revealed, Taiyama expressed her enthusiasm. I can't wait for the day when I can see Tenka singing

03:39and dancing. In a year dominated by giants such as Kimetsu, No Yaiba, Chainsaw Man, and Jujutsu Kaisen,

03:47renowned director Mamoru Hosoda faces one of the toughest setbacks of his career. His latest film,

03:54Scarlet, released in 2025, failed to even make it into the top five at the Japanese box office,

04:01marking an unexpectedly poor performance. According to initial reports, the film has grossed between

04:07$450,000 and $1.9 million, considerably low figures for a Hosoda production and far behind competing titles

04:17such as the compilation Jujutsu Kaisen, Execution. The public reception has not been favorable either.

04:25On film marks, the film received an average rating of 2.9, ranking it as one of the worst-rated films of 2025,

04:33comparable only to the streaming disaster that was the third season of One Punch Man.

04:38The story follows a medieval princess, an expert swordswoman who seeks to avenge her father's death.

04:46However, after being mortally wounded, she awakens in the other world, where she meets an idealistic

04:52young man from our present. He helps her heal physically and emotionally, showing her a path

04:58away from hatred and revenge. Although the premise addresses universal themes, it seems that this time

05:06the message failed to connect with Japanese audiences. This week, the official website for

05:11Haibara's Teenage New Game was launched, officially announcing its anime adaptation based on Kazuki Amamiya's

05:18light novels. The announcement came alongside a first promotional video, a key visual, and confirmation

05:26that the series will premiere in April 2026 on TBS. The story follows Natsuki Haibara, a college student

05:35with social anxiety who regrets having lived a dull adolescence. Inexplicably, he travels seven years into the past

05:44just before starting high school. Now, with knowledge of the future and online guides, he will try to rebuild

05:51his youth, become popular, and win over the girl he always liked. Shogakuken's monthly Koro Koro Comics magazine

05:59surprised its readers by announcing that the manga Shion, created by Hinashou, will be adapted into a web anime.

06:08The series will debut exclusively on YouTube, with the launch of its official channel and its first episode

06:14on December 1, 2025. The project will be produced and operated by Bitstar Anime, a division of influencer

06:22marketing company Bitstar Inc., which will be responsible for distributing this new anime directly

06:28to digital platforms on a weekly basis. The story follows Shion Hiragi, a high school student who hides

06:35a surprising double life. He is an elite bodyguard. His mission is to protect Emi Zain, his classmate and

06:43president of a powerful corporation who is the target of multiple assassins. When Emi discovers the identity of

06:50her protector, the two begin working together to try to maintain a peaceful school life, while

06:56surviving constant threats. Akira Toriyama's legacy continues to leave its mark in unexpected places.

07:04On November 27, the University of the Ryukyus announced the discovery of a new species of fish

07:10belonging to the Gobi family, named Vanderhorstia Supercyon. The name is a direct tribute to the iconic

07:19Supercyon transformation from Dragon Ball, inspired by the vibrant yellow bands that adorn its fins.

07:26The specimen was collected off the coast of Ishigaki, within the so-called Twilight Zone,

07:32between 100 and 300 meters deep, and in Japanese, the common name Eleki-Haz, electric Gobi,

07:40has been proposed because its colors are reminiscent of flashes of energy.

07:45This finding, published in the journal Ichthyological Research, highlights that the species was found at

07:51a depth of 210 meters, much deeper than 33 other known species of the same genus, demonstrating that

07:58there are still rare creatures to be discovered in the depths of Okinawa. What is a common feature in

08:04the West became a national scandal in Japan. At the end of November 2025, the anime store platform,

08:13one of the largest anime streaming services in Japan, announced the addition of an optional button to

08:19skip openings and endings. The announcement, posted on its official Twitter account, quickly surpassed

08:2510 million views but garnered only about 1,800 likes, reflecting an extremely negative reception.

08:33Criticism was swift. Thousands of Japanese users pointed out that skipping the OP and ED is disrespectful to

08:40the staff's efforts, as these sequences include credits and are part of the anime's artistic identity.

08:47Some comments called users who used this feature dopamine addicts, or compared the practice to not

08:53saying itadakimasu before eating. What was supposed to be a celebration of anime music turned into an

09:00international incident. On November 27, 2025, Maki Otsuki, a 52-year-old singer famous for performing the first

09:09endings of One Piece, Memories and Run, was interrupted and removed from the stage during the Bandai Namco

09:17Festival 2025 in Shanghai. Viral videos show how, while singing with the group Cassis, Otsuki's microphone

09:25was cut off, the lights were turned off, and she was escorted out of the venue. Reports indicate that the

09:32Chinese government issued a sudden order banning performances by Japanese artists, despite prior

09:38permits. The incident is linked to a diplomatic conflict following statements by Japanese Prime

09:44Minister Sanai Takaichi about possible military action in response to a Chinese attack on Taiwan.

09:52China responded with cultural restrictions and concert cancellations, also affecting musicians such as

09:58Yoshio Suzuki, Kokia, and Kid Fresino. The incident has sparked outrage among fans and artists, who

10:07criticize the fact that culture and entertainment are being affected by international political disputes.

10:13The controversy surrounding the production of the second season of Boki The Rock has taken a peculiar turn.

10:19The Change.org campaign, created by a group of fans to demand the dismissal of screenwriter Erika Yoshida,

10:28was closed this week after its organizers declared a total victory. The petition accused Yoshida of

10:34censoring elements of the original material and including political ideologies in her work. However,

10:41the supposed triumph came with only 763 signatures, most of them from foreign users, a number that has generated

10:49more doubts than celebration within the community. What attracted the most attention was the organizers'

10:56claim to have received a favorable response from the manga's creator, Aki Hamaji, who allegedly assured

11:04them that he would intervene strongly in the staff of the second season, including changes. Within the Japanese

11:11industry, it is extremely unusual for an author to respond directly to such a small petition.

11:18The campaign also criticized the removal of ice bath scenes, considered fan service, and Yoshida's

11:25previous work on tiger and wings and meibashi witches, accusing her of prioritizing political agendas.
