Xcancel doesn't work again, I posted the whole tweet here so you don't have to open twitter.

the tweet only mentions Israel, but in reality all country names were removed like the Japanese raw, only the manga has the real names

United States changed to MAG Union

USSR changed to Volgarena, this name is directly inspired by the Volga River

Israel changed to Ghorantl (or Guranto), made-up word combining “Golan Heights” with “Toru” (to seize).

Syria changed to Mesamia, inspired by Mesopotamia

The mention of Israel in the Latin Spanish dub of The Ghost in the Shell (2026) has been removed...

A few days ago, a clip from the Latin Spanish dub went viral, where Israel was mentioned directly. Fans pointed out that this version was the only one that kept this reference present in the manga, while other versions, including the Japanese one, mentioned the fictional country Ghorantl.

However, after the clip went viral, the dub would have been modified. Now, instead of mentioning Israel directly, expressions like “they” and “other nations” are used.

What do you all think?

The Japanese broadcaster TV Tokyo has announced that it will begin streaming English-subtitled episodes of the Naruto anime series, about one hour after their Japanese broadcast, to paid monthly subscribers worldwide on the Crunchyroll video service on January 8, 2009.

Crunchyroll will then provide free Internet streaming of the episodes seven days after the paid subscribers see them. This coincides with when the online video services Joost and Hulu are providing their own free streaming of the same episodes via Viz Media. Viz Media announced earlier today that it will also begin hosting free streams of the new episodes on the official Naruto.com website on January 15.

On January 8, Crunchyroll will stop accepting user-submitted videos and other content from individuals, and only host videos approved by copyright holders. Gonzo and Toei Animation are two other major Japanese copyright holders of anime that decided to stream on Crunchyroll. ANN interviewed Crunchyroll founder Vu Nguyen in March.

Update: BB Watch reports that TV Tokyo will distribute five anime series, including Naruto and Gintama, worldwide on the same day that they broadcast in Japan. ANN has added more background information to this article.

Update 2: Crunchyroll has posted a press release corroborating the details in TV Tokyo's press release on Naruto.

The manga centers on Kurumi Fukuka, a college student who will make her debut on the foreign exchange market in order to recover the 20 million yen (about US$126,000) her late mother lost in that market. She believes that it will be easy to get back that money, and with that goal in mind, she jumps into a world where things can turn from heaven to hell in an instant. Unrealized losses and loss-cutting, a racing heart that won't stop... Despite this, she wants to buy, sell, and earn. She is joined by other "FX fighters," and the market heats up. Kurumi continues to play a cute and slightly dangerous money game as charts swing back and forth. Can Kurumi and her friends survive in this raging world?

OK the question is partly a joke... But let's be honest, that's a Guyver! or at least some sort of clone like Aptom. What's he doing in Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken? 😂 Curious to hear people's hypotheses on how he got there. Maybe Otherworlders can come from other parallel Japanese universes too?

Oh yeah I'd like more Zoanoids and Dr. Barcas/Balcus too! Or maybe I've actually already seen someone like him in TSSDK?

Since quite a few years back, it's been quite commonplace in fantasy anime and manga to represent casting magic as some kinds of 2D circles or geometric figures with patterns, possibly multiple ones, as in the image on the right (Frieren). I see this idea used in almost all – if not all – anime and manga now.

It hasn't always been that way though. Older anime and manga used other and different kinds of representations, say from blinking stars (image on the left, Majokko Megu-chan) to smoke, or even just sound effects.

I'm just curious: does anyone have any info or links to share about how this "2D representation" came about and why it's become so popular? Cheers!

Over a year ago I made this post: https://lemmy.world/post/29657860 welp, given a good amount of the comments are deleted and it's been a while. Figured I'd redo this one.

What's your favorite anime, tell us with quotes only

The story follows the life of a young woman with an intellectual disability who ends up involved in nighttime work, leading to a tragic outcome. Critics accuse the work of profiting from the exploitation of vulnerable people and demand that its production be halted.

In 2022, a clip of the anime Serial Exeriments Lain that aired after 9/11 went viral online and was described as "bizarre" and "surreal." This is the full story of how that clip came about, from the PBS station KTEH to its upload last year.

It's such a dumb premise but I guess it's so stupid that it works.

Did you watch it? What's your favourite quote? Would you fly to Thailand to become an idol?

Illustrations are fine, but who on the earth wrote the stories? The stories I guess are based on the 1st season? of the Abydos High School stories on game.... But it's worse than the og one. Sensei do nothing overall, amased! It's rubbish.......

How abt you guys? What do you think abt this piece of anime? Do you think it's good or bad? And what are the reasons for that? And (doesn't matter if you don't like or like) what's your favourite episode from this anime?
