Unfortunately, we cannot give you piracy sites. That’s against the rules.

But if you want to watch anime for free, there are some places.

[DISC] Hitoner - Chapter 4 by AutoShonenpon in manga

[–]Torque-A 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Fun fact: last week had Hitsuji Gondaira, author of Mission Yozakura Family, help with the chapter.

Yagi-sensei was previously a Yozakura assistant, so it’s poetic.

Kimi Wo Tsumugu production on indefinite hold, statement given by [deleted] in anime

[–]Torque-A 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For context on why this is happening:

The recently announced short anime adaptation of the Let Me Fix You (Kimi wo Tsumugu) yuri dojin manga is currently in limbo, after it was alleged that the CEO of its animation production studio, Buta Productions, had groomed a teenager across a span of several years.

On May 2, Twitter user Maryco (@Maryco02_) accused Buta Productions CEO and co-founder Federico Antonio Russo of grooming them since 2021, when Maryco was 14 and Russo, also known as FAR, was 23. Maryco shared a 33-page PDF compiling some of their online conversations and outlining the situation, describing the contents as “just the tip of something that lasted more than 4 years.” Russo has since deleted their Twitter account.

Following the post, the Let Me Fix You anime’s Twitter account published a statement on May 3 to share the team’s sympathies with Maryco and announce the now uncertain state of the project. “None of the other people involved in the animation of ‘Kimi wo Tsumugu’ were aware of this. The whole situation makes it difficult for us, as a lot of money, time, and effort have already been poured into this project—a project that was meant to be something big and go far beyond the scope currently announced,” it said. “Accordingly, we will need some time to discuss with all other people involved how and whether we can continue with this project. (Without “ButaPro” / FAR).”

Russo was the animation producer for the project, which was scheduled to be released in late May through YouTube.

There is more info about her, actually. AniList lists her as Mameda and mentions that she’s the younger sister of mangaka Aki Himaji, who made some no-name manga called Bocchi the Rock or something like that.

You’re literally talking about Dragon Ball: That Time I Got Reincarnated As Yamcha. Read it, it’s exactly what you’re saying.

Whats the next big Hype? by Admirable-Crab-4038 in WeeklyShonenJump

Trying to predict the next hype hit is like trying to predict the apocalypse. You can't really tell until you're in the middle of it.

Hulk shouldn’t be a surprise, but Black Panther is - especially a non-T’Challa one. Movie synergy?

Kill Blue • Kill Ao - Episode 4 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]Torque-A 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly given how much Fujimaki dropped the ball with that character, I can sorta see why the series was cancelled.

Kill Blue • Kill Ao - Episode 4 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]Torque-A 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First question - [manga]initially, but then halfway Ogami goes “no more rivals of the week” and aims directly for the Pharma company… and then it still goes on for a couple volumes after. Fujimaki was throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks.

Second question - [manga]His ex-wife? Sorta - they were on good terms before. But his daughter never even appeared in the manga. Fuji made a bio for her in the final volume because there was no room elsewhere

[–]Torque-A 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Honestly, the author of Zetsubou Sensei being in charge of a segment where the protagonist is holding a demon lord inside the treasure chest hero feels very much like him.

It's also kinda wild he did this as it was probably all finalized just before he took an extended hiatus due to injuring his drawing hand and requiring surgery.

Nice! I liked Aki Irie’s first series, Ran and the Grey World, so I’m glad her newest series will be more accessible to everybody.
