I've eared about it. Is made by the same people that did Kill-la-Kill, correct?

Yeah, I hear the story is the studio made panties, then half of them left and formed Trigger, then made Kill la Kill.

I'm picturing #17 singing "I'M ON A BOAT!" now.
#17 is cool with Krillian being his brother-in-law.

Re: Animation and Comics
Tonight's episode of Samurai Jack was a trip down memory lane. They didn't cover every location and character Jack encountered in his travels, but they got through a lot. Lots of old faces and cameos.
So Ashi and her sisters outfits weren't skintight ninja garb but really volcanic soot/ash/coal that was caked onto their skin? Ouch.
We got "Damn", "Hell", "SOB", "badass", "He looked like a talking penis", and a nude bathing scene.
So the ghostly Samurai Horseman following Jack and appearing to him when he was at his most suicidal was real and not a hallucination. Some sort of Grim Reaper/Shinigami for samurai.
A light episode until we got a dark as shit flashback from Ashi, and Jack coming close to performing Seppuku/Harakiri to atone for his self-perceived failure and dishonor.
Time to get your sword back, Jack!

One Punch Man: Sweet Mask Special Chapter
Re: Animation and Comics
Hydra!Cap can lift Thor's Hammer. He's worthy to wield Mjolnir.
I can already see the shitstorm coming.
The rules for lifting Mjolnir seem to change every year. Does his strength of conviction and belief he's in the right make him "pure" regardless of his tyrannical agenda, like how Doom passed the Panther God of Wakanda's test? Or does Mjolnir sense the real Cap buried deep inside even through the Cosmic Cube alterations? Or does Mjolnir just like to fuck with people now?

[[ "Announced during the "Marvel's Next Big Thing" panel at Chicago's C2E2 2017 on Saturday, Legacy 's "bold new direction" will begin with an 50-page Marvel Legacy #1 one-shot by Jason Aaron and Esad Ribic that will feature "the Earth-shattering return of a beloved Marvel mainstay" and will continue through with the publisher's long-running titles reverting to their original series or "classic legacy" numbering.
“The Marvel Legacy initiative is a celebration of everything that makes Marvel the best in fiction and it’s a signifier of a new era for Marvel Comics,” said Quesada. “It’s a loving look at the heart of Marvel as we embrace our roots and move enthusiastically forward with all the Marvel characters you know and love starring in the biggest, boldest, best Marvel stories. All of which kicks off with the giant Marvel Legacy special.”
"From there, the Marvel Legacy initiative spreads out across the Marvel Universe, showcasing epic storylines hearkening back to the glory days of Marvel starring Odinson, Squirrel Girl, Spider-Man, the Avengers, America Chavez, Iron Man, Moon Knight, the Guardians of the Galaxy, Captain Marvel, Luke Cage, the X-Men, Captain America, Ms. Marvel, Deadpool, the Champions, Wolverine, Ironheart, Hulk, The Punisher and so many more!"
The publisher said that Legacy will encompass the entire Marvel Universe, promsing "blockbuster new storylines" and its renumbered titles coming with "a renewed sense of hope, wonder, enjoyment and fun!"
Marvel's Legacy initiative expands beyond just the stories and the issue numbers on the front cover, as the publisher plans to revive ancillary elements from its past such as the Marvel Value Stamp, the fan magazine FOOM, and corner box art on covers.
So we will see the fall of Peter Parker and Parker Industries as part of the Spider-Man books.
Tying in thematically with Thor: Ragnarok, we will see the Return to Planet Hulk in the Hulk books.
And then the resurrection of Tony Stark in Iron Man." ]]

"HASBRO CROSSOVER FIRST STRIKE AIMS TO ‘DESTROY ALL THE TRANSFORMERS: IDW Publishing Editor-in-Chief David Hedgecock described “First Strike” as the natural progression from what the company started in “Revolution.”
IDW Publishing has a new Hasbro crossover on the way, and it doesn’t sound like good news for the Transformers.
CBR has the first details on “First Strike,” announced Thursday at the Diamond Retailer Summit in Chicago. The story starts with two issues in August, from the writing team of IDW Transformers vet Mairghread Scott & David Rodriguez (Narrative Director at Vicarious Visions, the game company best known for the “Skylanders” franchise) and artist Max Dunbar, recently of IDW’s “Micronauts” series.
Following 2016’s “Revolution” event — which saw IDW’s licensed Hasbro properties united in one shared universe — “First Strike” picks up with Earth about to join the Cybertronian Council of Worlds. That peaceful event is interrupted by Cobra, as Baron Ironblood — historically the British counterpart to Cobra Commander — has targeted all Cybertronians for termination, putting the Transformers in serious jeopardy. The G.I. Joes, led by Scarlett, and the Autobots, led by Optimus Prime, stand in the way in the face of extinction — enlisting help along the way from, apparently, an unlikely ally in the form of Soundwave of the Decepticons.
While this certainly sounds like the comic book equivalent of a blockbuster summer movie, Scott said it’s also a “deeply personal character story.”
“One man attempts to dominate, one woman stands against him,” Scott said in a statement to CBR. “Watch as Scarlett leads her G.I. Joes on a daring mission to save all of Cybertron from their gravest threat yet. ‘First Strike’ is a fast-paced, hard-hitting, and deeply personal character story set against the backdrop of intergalactic war with all the giant robots, cyborg ninjas, and massive explosions you could ask for.”
“In ‘Revolution,’ we united our Hasbro comic book titles into one shared universe,” Hedgecock said. “In ‘First Strike,’ we see what it’s like to live in the shadows of a massively powerful, ancient, alien race that has been warring with itself for millions of years and, in doing so, has brought death and destruction to every planet it has touched.”
“What, if anything, can one man do to save his planet? What depths will he go to in order to save mankind? How do you destroy all the Transformers?”
True to the “Revolution” spirit, it won’t just be Transformers and G.I. Joe getting involved in “First Strike” — the M.AS.K. team will also be involved.
“‘First Strike’ is your childhood toy box exploding onto the [comic] page: the Transformers, G.I. Joe, and M.A.S.K. teams brought together, each of them positioned on different sides of this planet-spanning conflict,” Rodriguez said in a statement. “Sometimes the groups will line up along expected party lines, but other times, you’ll see them being torn apart from the inside, as they are forced to face the impossible concept of one human man declaring war against Cybertron and then being really good at it.”
“First Strike” will run for three months, with six issues planned to ship on a twice-monthly schedule. Tie-ins to the event will be revealed at a later date. Covers for each issue will be illustrated by “Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” artist Freddie E. Williams II, along with multiple variants.
The crossover of the year is here! Earth is finally ready to officially join the Cybertronian Council of Worlds and appoint their first representative to the Council. Too bad the ceremony is interrupted by a massive explosion and the forces of COBRA! Now it’s up to Scarlett, Optimus Prime, G.I. Joe and the Autobots to save two worlds!"

"The third season of the acclaimed Young Justice will be a corner stone for DC Entertainment’s upcoming DC Comics-branded digital service, which will debut in 2018. The Young Justice: Outsiders revival will be paired with the live-action Titans series as anchors for the new service. DC Entertainment released official details of the show’s third season, including a synopsis, which can be found below.
Warner Bros. Television and DC Entertainment Announce All-New Live-Action Series Titans, from Executive Producers Akiva Goldsman, Geoff Johns, Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter, To Debut In 2018
Young Justice: Outsiders, The Highly Anticipated Third Season Of Warner Bros. Animation’s Young Justice, Also To Bow Next Year
Series Will Air Exclusively on Upcoming DC-Branded Direct-to-Consumer Digital Service
Warner Bros. Television and DC Entertainment today announced that executive producers Akiva Goldsman, Geoff Johns, Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter are teaming up for the all-new live-action drama series Titans, which will debut in 2018. Additionally, Warner Bros. Animation’s Young Justice: Outsiders the highly anticipated third season of the popular Young Justice series, is also ramping up for its first mission next year.
Both fan-driven series are in early stages of production and will air exclusively on a DC-branded direct-to-consumer digital service in 2018. Operated by Warner Bros. Digital Networks Group, the new digital service will deliver an immersive experience designed just for DC fans.
Titans follows a group of young soon-to-be Super Heroes recruited from every corner of the DC Universe. In this action-packed series, Dick Grayson emerges from the shadows to become the leader of a fearless band of new heroes, including Starfire, Raven and many others. Titans is a dramatic, live-action adventure series that will explore and celebrate one of the most popular comic book teams ever.
Titans will be written by Akiva Goldsman (Star Trek: Discovery, Underground), Geoff Johns (President & Chief Creative Officer, DC Entertainment; The Flash, Arrow) and Greg Berlanti (Arrow, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, The Flash, Supergirl). Goldsman, Johns, Berlanti and Sarah Schechter (Arrow, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, The Flash, Supergirl) are executive producers of the series from Weed Road Pictures and Berlanti Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television.
In Young Justice: Outsiders, the teenage Super Heroes of the DC Universe come of age in an animated world of super-powers, Super-Villains and super secrets. In the highly anticipated new season, the team faces its greatest challenge yet as it takes on meta-human trafficking and the terrifying threat it creates for a society caught in the crossfire of a genetic arms race spanning the globe and the galaxy. Equally praised by critics and viewers for its impressive visuals and rich storytelling, Young Justice reached more than 25 million unique viewers in each of its two seasons on Cartoon Network. This passionate fan support set the stage for the new third season.
Sam Register (Teen Titans Go!, Justice League Action) is executive producer of Young Justice. Brandon Vietti (Batman: Under the Red Hood, Superman Doomsday) and Greg Weisman (Star Wars Rebels, Gargoyles) are producers of the series, produced by Warner Bros. Animation. Emmy Award winner Phil Bourassa (Young Justice, Justice League Dark, Teen Titans: The Judas Contract) serves as the series’ art director.
A specific release date has not yet been announced, for both the digital service and Young Justice: Outsiders, but details will roll out throughout 2017, leading up to the 2018 debut. The DC-branded platform is expected to offer more than a traditional OTT service, and aims to offer an immersive experience with fan interaction and will encompass comics as well as TV series. Additional details on the digital service, including pricing an availability, will be released soon.

Re: Animation and Comics
The final battle between Jack and Aku is almost here. This is gonna be epic.
Re: Animation and Comics
I want to share that I feel that Season 5 of Samurai Jack is a beautiful thing. The animation is still as exceptional as it was then, the scenery they show us is still gorgeous, and the new characters and confrontations are already very memorable. A lot of time and love was put into this revival, and I appreciate that the new season has an episode dedicated to the things we loved about Samurai Jack's original airing. We have goofy characters, we have the long and intense fights, we have stretches of minimal dialog with storytelling being done through visuals alone, we have the strange and surreal moments. This previous episode, entirely about Jack's past adventures, is already my favorite one so far of season 5.
They didn't forget what we loved and wanted. It's already almost over, and it will be a bittersweet thing when season 5 ends.

Monster Musume Vol 11 came yesterday. I hope that means a season two + is on the way. Anyone hear any news? I'm excited Masamune's Revenge got green lit for a second season for April '18. Looking forward to Heaven's Feel coming out later this year as well as a Sound Euphonium movie.

Preach!
Been loving every second of season 5. I'm eagerly awaiting the conclusion but also sad the end is almost here, too. Just a few more weeks, and we say our final goodbyes to Jack, Aku, and to all the other wonderful things in this series.
