JUMP FORCE Adds Yugi from YU-GI-OH!
Do you love card games? Do you love fighting games? Do you love anime? If you said yes to all three, then I have some good news for you. Yugi, from the card loving franchise Yu-Gi-Oh!, is joining Jump Force, Shonen Jump’s answer to Super Smash Bros. Our card wielding hero joins the likes of Son Goku from Dragon Ball, Luffy from One Piece, Naruto from Naruto, Ichigo from Bleach, and Gon from Hunter x Hunter. Jump Force is said to be released on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC next year. No word on a Switch version, but considering Dragon Ball Fighter Z came out later on the Nintendo Switch…you get the drill.…

Opinion: Top 5 Shonen Jump Manga
5. Jojo’s Bizzare Adventure What’s not to love when it comes to the strange nature of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure? It’s an insane thrill ride that ain’t afraid to kill off characters if they want. The only reason that I put this so on the list is that of its weird art style that is a massive hit or miss for me. 4. Blue Exorcist As someone that is a big fan of Supernatural, it’s probably not that surprising that I enjoy this franchise as much as I do. Even if I’m not a person of faith, religions and its history have always fascinated me. There is a reason that I watch the Story of…

Review: NARUTO THE MOVIE: BLOOD PRISON
Naruto needs to reclaim his honor after he gets convicted for a crime he did not commit. The reason I give you this review is that I need tomorrow to work on the last parts of the other two planned posts. But I refuse to have you go empty handed today, so here is a review just for you. As someone who ain’t that big on the Naruto movies since they are fillers, Blood Prison made me question why I hadn’t seen them in the first place. It’s not a masterpiece, don’t get me wrong. But I did find myself having a good time watching it from beginning to end.…

Opinion: Top 5 Shonen Jump Villains
5. Light Yagami (Death Note) While Light Yagami is the main lead of Death Note, he is also a villain. He is charismatic, together with an intelligence that you can’t help but to see if he get’s away with his deeds. He ends up this low because of a certain event. If you have read the manga/watch the anime you know what I’m talking about 4. Zeref Dragneel (Fairy Tail) Zeref is a perfect example of a tragic villain with massive potential. He would have been much higher on the list (maybe even first place) if it wasn’t for some misses down the line. 3. Cell (Dragon Ball Z) When…

Review: ONE PIECE FILM: GOLD
Luffy and his friends are on their way to Gran Tesoro. The largest entertainment city in the world. But what was meant to be a lot of fun, soon escalates to a lot of troubles. Golden troubles. One Piece is one of these IPs that is a trip and a half (but In a positive way). The movie is a worthy installation in this juggernaut of a franchise. It’s a fever dream of colors action and pure insanity just like a good One Piece script should be. Like the yesterday’s review, it would benefit you to watch the anime if you want to watch it, but I find this being…

Review: FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST THE MOVIE: CONQUEROR OF SHAMBALLA
Edward Electric, an alchemist from a different world, races to prevent an evil society to bring chaos and war to his homeland. For some of you, adding FMA might feel like a franchise that might not be the most obvious choice for a week like Shonen Jump. The reason I chose the franchise is this. Fullmetal Alchemist is a franchise that I think deserves more credit. Yes, it is quite popular, but not in the same league as Dragon Ball, Naruto or One Piece. If I had the time, I would have reviewed one of the animes (and yes reviews of both will come in due time). So instead, you…

VIDEO FEATURE: MY HERO ACADEMIA – What is a Hero?
Superheroes have taken the world by storm. Watch their movies, their shows, read their books and even play their games. We are obsessed with heroes. But what actually is a hero? That’s a question I hope to answer by looking at the World’s Number One Hero, All Might. In the world of My Hero Academia over 80% of the population has a power (or quirk). These abilities lead to “superhero” becoming a profession. People become heroes for fame, for money, or just to help the world become a better place. This leads us to a young man name Toshinori Yagi. He wants to help the world. He believes that the…
