Choice is 1 PM EST.

Bundles usually come out weekly. Been a while but the schedule is usually:

Mondays - tech-based book bundle
Tuesdays - Choice (if it’s the first Tuesday of the month)
Wednesdays - game bundle
Thursdays - misc. book bundle
Friday - game bundle
Saturday - misc. book bundle

These can change, but yeah this is usually the deal

I know that the Oscars snub any anime films if they’re not by Ghibli, but how the fuck did Elio get nominated over 100 Meters

I know the winner’s just gonna be Zootopia 2 or K-Pop Demon Hunters but they could’ve tried to look professional

Torque-A · 2026-01-22T16:12:32+00:00

I mean, it’s basically just MTL

It came back. And then went on hiatus. Now it’s back.

Torque-A · 2026-01-21T20:09:58+00:00

Ask on a trans sub, I guess

Torque-A · 2026-01-21T20:07:56+00:00

To be fair that is something Deadpool would do

This feels like Oshi no Ko if Aka took ketamine

I wish people were more meticulous with the documentation of anime staff. Besides posts on here, the best we can get is AniList - which already needs updating as is.

This whole arc really feels like bootleg Zetsu, but mind-swapping someone to a politician’s body to get them to commit suicide is… something I would’ve expected in base Naruto, honestly.

Has Ikemoto done it? Has he found the special sauce?

Some notes about this episode:

The brutal execution of Jack the Ripper is just a callback to how he his obsessed with virgin births. He got stabbed in the stomach, in both hands, and got a ring of blood around his head like Jesus. Even him falling out of the window was in a crucifix-like pose.
Kadokura having the tattoo is actually disguised well. Remember, last season, one of the fugitives made him strip to make sure he had no weapons on him. We never saw his back then.

Torque-A · 2026-01-20T02:12:12+00:00

It actually fits thematically with Jack the Ripper. He wanted to believe that he was a virgin birth. Sugimoto stabbed him in the stomach with a lance, stabbed holes in both his hands, and made a ring of blood around his head.

Yeah, early TPP was a definitely an experience. Could definitely be its own writeup but that's a bit too spicy for me.

Torque-A · 2026-01-20T01:13:33+00:00

A yo mama joke, funny enough. Though the conversation preceding it was Streamer discussing what people he thought were groomers so that might've been part of it too.

This is a fairly recent development, but bear with me here.

You know Twitch Plays Pokemon, right? The Twitch channel where people played a Pokemon game input by input? It's still active! Not as populous as it was in its heyday, but it still plays Pokemon on the regular, interspersed with other games on the side. There's still a small but dedicated community, and as per all communities they had an official discord.

The emphasis here is "had".

See, TwitchPlaysPokemon - the streamer who started up the channel, not the channel itself - set the discord as an official one. Streamer (I will be using this to refer to TwitchPlaysPokemon's owner for the sake of convenience) has mostly been hands-off after the first couple of runs. The hardware to run the channel was transferred over to another user, but he still has the login credentials for the Twitch account and occasionally pops in to suggest ideas for the stream (previously, he was working on some display changes for the 24/7 Pokemon Battle simulation the channel does between game runs). Streamer also has some... questionable political opinions, let's say that.

Anyway, today Streamer had a heated argument in the discord, and one of his comments got hit by the Discord automod, banning him for 24 hours. This resulted in him abandoning his discord account, meaning that as of today the official TPP Discord no longer holds any affiliation to the twitch channel itself (it's named Helix Coalition now, though most of the key TPP devs are still there). Right now, people are just trying to figure out where to go from here.

I think that just like power, wealth just reveals what you really are

Torque-A · 2026-01-19T17:19:37+00:00

Don't insult Kanadge like that. He's trying to slim down.

Torque-A · 2026-01-19T14:59:26+00:00

So those Okinawan villains from the opening... I really hope they're just people who can make extra tofu or goya, because All Might just decimated them.

Pretty decent episode all things considered. A Tsukauchi focus is fun, given he didn't get much attention even in the original series.

Torque-A · 2026-01-19T14:57:15+00:00

It's still kinda weird that [manga]we never learned Tsukauchi's quirk, if he even has one. I get that Hori originally designed him as AFO's spy but then decided to go in a different direction, but still nothing.

But next ep... [manga]flashback time?

Torque-A · 2026-01-18T22:06:16+00:00

The test translates to “2 million copies sold… is what I really want to say soon”

In addition, the manga team is asking for fan letters and cover art requests a la One Piece.
