Blue Giant is on the way to Netflix on September 1st! It is a story about a jazz musician but even if you aren't a jazz fan, it tells a powerful and emotional story with an electric soundtrack. I missed this when it was in theaters, and I am so excited to finally see the whole story! Are you planning to check it out?

Terminator Zero is coming out in less than a week (yeah, I know it was already leaked) and I am excited to see how Netflix is going to handle the series. The movie series has had some...ughh...interesting additions to the series. Terminator 1 and 2 are still amazing and hold up even today. In preparation for this anime, I decided to watch 1 and 2 because Terminator Zero takes influence from those and honestly out of all of them, those are the ones you should probably take from. Are you interested in checking out the new anime?

I’m easy to impress. Give me a man dressed as a bat flipping around and beating criminals into a pulp or give me a giant radioactive lizard that destroys cities and I’ll be happy. But if you combine them?…well, I never thought I’d get the opportunity to find out but here is Justice League vs Godzilla vs Kong! After only a few pages I can already tell that this is a blast and a half. I love that we are getting an answer to a childhood debate of who would win in a fight Godzilla or Superman. I love that one of my favorite movies series is joining my favorite super hero team to do what they do best…ya know, fight. I haven’t even finished the first issue and I am already asking for more! I would love to see Space Godzilla take on the lanterns or Gigan and Joker teaming up or maybe the birds of prey and Mothra. I don’t care. I just want more of DC and Godzilla. What do you think of this crossover?

Mothra is the queen of the monsters, one of the most popular kaiju ever created, and has stood toe to toe with Godzilla...but why is she a giant moth? I figured there had to be something special about choosing a moth of all insects to take on these kaiju and boy did I learn stumble down a rabbit hole.

Are you a Mothra fan? It’s National Moth Week and my first thought was “why do we have a moth week?!” So this sent me down a rabbit hole of research, phone calls, and looking at alot of moths, all in the hopes of finding out a question I’ve had since I first fell in love with the queen of the monsters, “why is she a moth?” It may be easy to just think that moths are cool but turns out there is much more to Mothra and moths in general than I realized. Stay tuned for the full video 👀

NieR Automata's anime is deep, stylish, and alot easier to understand! I played the game way back when it came out and didn't appreciate it (or really understand it all that well) but the anime has really helped me get back into this vast world and its powerful themes. I even began replaying the game (and streaming it btw) and I am loving it. The anime is basically just a retelling of the game and it is much more streamlined so I can't recommend it enough. Do you like NieR Automata v1.1a?

This post made me deep dive into why Mothra is a moth and how moths are viewed in human history and what a rabbit hole I jumped down. New video soon 👀

Silk moths are one of the few species of invertebrates which humans have domesticated, and our relationship with these little insects has an incredibly rich history. Their larvae, called silkworms, have been used for silk production since approximately 3630 BC in ancient China! These moths don’t have mouths, and so have very short lifespans. While we don't use domestic silk moths to produce silk, they are wonderful ambassadors for their species, and their larvae are used as feeder insects for a variety of our reptiles. Happy !

Ultraman is getting a card game! Are you interested in playing? Not much is known yet about the game as it rolls out but there are 2 starter decks planned for October 2024 and some cards are even featuring Ultraman Rising, which makes me very tempted to start collecting. It is interesting to see how it will compete with other TCGs like One Piece, Pokémon, and Digimon. I was a Digimon player back in the day and though I loved it, keeping up with decks got expensive and a pain to build so I am curious to see if Ultraman will follow the same pattern.

Kaiju No 8 made me read a book! It’s wild the inspiration that this anime has taken from a short novel from 1915 🪳 Check out my full video on it!

Kaiju No. 8 is making us go big brain for this one!👾 Discord:https://discord.gg/BFDPnaZFW7🖥️ Website:https://www.wiresdonttalk.com

I never realistically thought that 100,000 people would want to watch one thing I made, but today it happened. Thank you to those 100k who watched my Ultraman Rising video! This has been a long journey with alot of twists and turns but it has been so rewarding and a blast to see where it’s going!

The first three episodes of Su***de Squad Isekai are out now and though I’m super excited, I haven’t heard anything about good or bad. What do you all think?

Can't get enough of these new Godzilla variant covers from Marvel. The amount I need more of Venomized Godzilla! There's a total of 21 Godzilla covers each featuring the king of the monsters and our favorite Marvel heroes. I love that they add all different versions of Godzilla like the Showa era and even Shin Godzilla. These are going on sale in September so get ready to add them to your collection!

Was wondering why my Ultraman Rising YouTube video was getting so many views from X and then I see that the actual director shared my video 🤯🤯🤯

Ultraman Rising is easily one of the best animated films of the year. It is more than just a reboot of a legendary character but a film with such depth and heart that it is well worth a watch!

Ultraman Rising was a complete shock to me, and it is easily one of the best animated films this year, but it goes deeper than just a simple animated reboot....

06/17/2024

Ultraman Rising was a huge surprise to me. I never expected a fun action-packed movie with a kaiju sized heart. Its themes are deep, and it tells a rather grounded story even with larger-than-life fights. I can't recommend it enough to anyone even if you have no idea who Ultraman is. This isn't an origin story, or a story about saving the earth from total destruction, it's a story about growing as human and oh boy did it leave an impact on me. It's on Netflix now, check it out!

Kaiju No: 8 takes what is so great about the kaiju genre and gives a unique twist on it. Check out what I mean in my newest video.

Kaiju No. 8 is quickly taking over the spotlight amid a ton of fantastic anime and it does this by understanding what came before it, taking inspiration form...

I've just started diving into Shashingo, a simple yet captivating game that combines the thrill of photography with the joy of learning Japanese. Picture this: you're wandering through a vibrant, bustling fictional Japanese city, snapping photos and picking up new vocab along the way. It's more than just a language tool—it's an immersive experience that pulled me into the vibe and helped me learn and review Japanese vocab. Out of all the resources I've tried over the years, this one is by far the most fun and engaging! Whether you're a beginner or just curious about Japanese, you’ve got to check it out. I'll be livestreaming some gameplay soon and sharing my thoughts in an upcoming video. Stay tuned 👀

One of my favorite game series is on Humble Bundle! Monster Hunter is a series I’ve been playing with the same three friends for over 15 years. In this bundle you can grab Monster Hunter World and Monster Hunter Rise plus the DLCs! I’m going to be picking up Rise because…well when it came out my friends and I felt it was a bit of a step backwards for the series. What do you guys think? Are you a monster hunter too or thinking about grabbing it? 🤔

I turn 31 this Friday and it’s crazy how much I relate to Kaiju No 8 😅

When I create content I sometimes have to fly through an anime, dive into interviews and articles for research, or spoil something for myself, but I don’t do this for Berserk. This has been something I have been reading so slow (still on book 1) because I am taking in every single detail I can. I usually read a few pages, set it down for the night and just think about it. I love my mental debates of where the story will go, is Guts someone I admire or distaste, how can someone draw such perfect art in such detail. Sometimes you need to take life one page at a time and enjoy every minute of that page because just the ritual of reading a bit of Berserk has been strangely relaxing which if you have even read a page, you know that’s an odd sentence 💀

Who else is reading or has read Berserk? Is it the best manga of all time or not your style?

Su***de Squad Isekai is coming July 2024! I am a huge DC comics fan, and the Su***de Squad has had a pretty rough time adjusting to different media (the amount i wanted the game to be good!) but Isekai looks to capture what makes these stories so fun, the voice acting sounds amazing, and the anime art style looks gorgeous. How do you think the anime will turn out?

Keeping cozy and catching up on more Kaiju No. 8! Who else is watching? Let me know your thoughts on the anime so far!
