Despite all the criticism directed towards the series’ fanservice and the subsequently worsening animation of the anime, Nakaba Suzuki’s The Seven Deadly Sins is a well-known manga title with a solid fanbase. The series does offer some interesting shonen moments and fans of the series have managed to filter out the not-so-good aspects in order to see the true essence of the story. The manga received a sequel in the form of the Four Knights of the Apocalypse manga, which follows a new generation of heroes while revealing what happens to the old ones.
The sequel manga is still ongoing, with 15 volumes as of the time of writing; the manga premiered in 2021. An anime adaptation premiered on October 8, 2023, and ended its first season with 22 episodes. First season, you say?!

In the animated short film "COLORs," one of five created for Toho Animation's 10th anniversary, a high school girl discovers that her classmate presents as a woman outside of school. She follows them around the city, from a coffee shop to a festival to a forest bursting with fall colors. When they announce one day that they are transferring elsewhere, the girl is overcome with sorrow.

The picture will be produced on its behalf by Japan’s A-1 Pictures with Nakashige Shunsuke directing. Music is to be scored by Sawano Hiroyuki (“Attack on Titan”). Some media have called it a series, but in email to Variety Kakao Entertainment described the adaptation as a “film” and as “a movie.”
The property was originally a web novel written by Chugong in 2016, before it was developed as a web series written by h-goon with art by Dubu, CEO of Redice Studio, and D&c Webtoon, and released by Kakao Page in 2018.

In these dire times, the Azumabito’s flying ship is still the best–and really the only–plan of attack. Theo Magath and Hange turn to a strategy that should allow them to arrive at Marley before the continent is trampled into oblivion. The Azumabito’s flying boat was the lynchpin...
