Kentaro Miura was always a man to take things at a soft and leveled pace when it came to drafting and drawing Berserk. One of the very reasons why it is such a loved manga is because of the wide variety of stories and complexities it dives into. The pedestal it stands on is difficult to move and rightfully so.

While the series stands as one of the best, it is not without its flaws. Kazuhiko Torishima, former Dragon Ball editor pointed towards these exact flaws. As a manga that deals with the complexities of life, there is so much that goes into its making and the thoughts that compete with no one. Torishima, although acknowledging all that, could not help but notice one problem.

Soulsborne games are notorious for being difficult; however, the amount of love and dedication that goes into making them from Hidetaka Miyazaki and his team at FromSoftware is completely unparalleled in the gaming industry. Masterpieces like Dark Souls, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, and Bloodborne have catapulted the studio into the mainstream, and for good reason.
With breathtaking worlds, stories, and weaponry, the inspirations behind such works require an equal amount of appreciation. Particularly in the case of Bloodborne and, surprisingly, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, a world-renowned Seinen anime paved the way to creating these two jaw dropping experiences.
Blood and Blades: The Inspiration Taken from Blade of the Immortal
A lot of Bloodborne‘s trick weapons are inspired by this anime.
Originally created by mangaka Hiroaki Samura, Blade of the Immortal is about a cursed samurai attempting to regain his mortality by killing a thousand wrongdoers. The manga has received two anime adaptations,...

If you know anything about the world of manga, Berserk is quite probably a title that has come up at one point or another. Now, Berserk is a classic, but with all the hiatuses and Miura’s untimely death, the series’ future had been jeopardized for years. Still, in 2022, it was confirmed that Berserk would continue under the supervision of Koji Mori, Miura’s friend, and colleague, and reach the end that Miura intended. This fact made a lot of fans happy, but while Berserk is going to continue, Miura’s last two volumes, as well as his personal journey through Berserk, are going to end this year with the publication of the Deluxe Edition of Berserk Volume 14, and in this article, you are going to find out everything you need to know about this upcoming release.

After exploring “The Civil War,” “Baseball” and “Country Music,” award-winning documentarian Ken Burns and his frequent collaborator Lynn Novick examined the importance of being Ernest Hemingway in their three-part PBS documentary “Hemingway.” Premiering in April to strong reviews and Emmys buzz, the series weaves Papa’s biography with excerpts from his fiction, non-fiction, and personal correspondence. The series also reviews the mythology around the larger-than-life Hemingway, who penned such classic novels as “The Sun Also Rises,” “A Farewell to Arms,” “For Whom the Bell Tolls” and “The Old Man and the Sea,” to reveal the truth behind the bravado.
Feature film adaptations of Hemingway’s works had mixed results. Hemingway Bff Gary Cooper excelled in 1932’s “A Farewell to Arms” and 1943’s “For Whom the Bell Tolls,” receiving an Oscar nomination for the latter. John Garfield gave one of his strongest performance in 1950’s superb noir “The Breaking Point,” based...

Michael J. Pollard, whose long list of acting credits stretches back to the late 1950s but likely will is best remembered for his Oscar-nominated, star-making turn as the dimwitted but lovable sidekick C.W. Moss in 1967’s Bonnie and Clyde, has died. He was 80.
His death was announced on Facebook today by filmmaker Rob Zombie, who directed Pollard in 2003’s House of 1000 Corpses. A New York Times obituary cites Pollard’s friend Dawn Walker, who says the actor died Thursday of cardiac arrest at a Los Angeles hospital.
“Another member of our House of 1000 Corpses family has left us,” Zombie wrote. “The great Michael J Pollard has died. I have been a huge fan of Michael since I first saw him on the Star Trek “Miri”. He was amazing in everything from Bonnie and Clyde to Little Fauss and Big Halsy from Dirty Little Billy to The Four of the Apocalypse.

Approximately a year after his death, the legacy of Paul Newman continues to live on through Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment with a 17-disc collection of over 27 hours of the Academy Award winning actor's films as well as a 136-page book with never before seen images.
The "Paul Newman Tribute Collection" features some of his best yet perhaps more unnoticed work, which includes "Hemingway's Adventures of a Young Man," collector's editions of "The Verdict," "The Hustler," and "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" (which also marks the 40th anniversary of the film) and a special edition disc of "The Towering Inferno." Although some titles such as "The Color of Money," for which Newman won an Academy Award for his performance are missing, the latest tribute set to the actor is still an interesting collection of some of the films from his over 50-year career that might have been missed but are still worthy of seeing.

Seattle – Dalton Trumbo was one of the biggest names in screenwriting who for the longest time wasn’t allowed to show his name on the screen. He won two Oscars, but wasn’t allowed to step onto the stage.
At the peak of his career in 1947, he was brought before the House Un-American Activities Committee to testify about communists in Hollywood films. Like other screenwriters before the Huac, he refused to answer the questions. Their decision to not name names got them blacklisted in the industry and sent to prison. After nearly a year behind bars, Dalton secretly returned to screenwriting. He used fake names and front writers on various project. It wasn’t till 1960 when his name accompanied Exodus and Spartacus that the blacklist was broken.
Trumbo is a documentary about the writer that was originally a play written by his son Christopher Trumbo. The play had actors reading...

The King of Papa is heading back to the big screen.
The Gotham Group and producer Kevin Fortuna have optioned film rights to A.E. Hotchner's best-selling biography "Papa Hemingway: A Personal Memoir." Ellen Goldsmith-Vein and Peter McHugh of Gotham will produce along with Fortuna.
Hotchner's New York Times best-seller explores the final 14 years of the Nobel Prize-winning author's life, during which he was close friends with Hotchner, now 88.
"It is rare that we have such intimate, truthful knowledge about the life and, ultimately, demise of a true American icon," Goldsmith-Vein said.
Hotchner wrote the 1962 film "Hemingway's Adventures of a Young Man," based on the author's stories. Hemingway had shot himself to death the year before.
Fortuna also is developing a documentary about Hotchner through his Dedalus Enterprises.
Gotham is in production on David O. Russell's comedy "Nailed."...
