We spent the last decade letting every streamer define any kind of action cartoon as "anime." Is it really a shock that Western audiences only gravitate to the shonen battle stuff?

With anime more popular than ever, it's time to go beyond shonen

Every couple of months, kids who make liking Chainsaw Man their personality recoil in fear, muttering "s-sex???" at some new development and it's always really funny. Fujimoto will drag them kicking and screaming into adulthood.

If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."
There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

Reminds me of people complaining about procedural generation in games like it's the same as GenAI. A program that uses dev made assets to quickly create environments is not the same as stealing art and mashing it together like generative AI does.
people that hate AI that don't actually understand what genAI is and why its bad are genuinely more frustrating than AI bros

With the Fall 2025 anime season, Crunchyroll demonstrates zero respect for anime as a medium as the presentation quality of its subtitles reach an all-time low.
