Boo!

TGIF!

Thank God It’s Friday! Welcome everyone for a new episode of Friday Funny. I hope everyone is having a good week and are ready for the Halloween weekend. Before we begin, let’s go over some spooky, good news. If you are watching Toonami tonight, get ready for an anime marathon of Fena: Pirate Princess. No Batman movies this weekend. Next week we will be in November. In November get ready for some new fun. Besides Thanksgiving, we will be getting some movies in theaters. Marvel is going to be releasing the next MCU movie and it’s Eternals. I don’t know much about the Eternals, but based on what I heard about them, they are a celestrial beings that was hidden among Earth with incredible powers. They have come out of hiding when a powerful threat emerges and apparently, they didn’t get involved with the Thanos threat. If you are a One Piece fan, get ready for the theaterical screening of One Piece Film Strong World to celebrate the 1,000 episode milestone. Limited to two days, One Piece Film Strong World is coming to theaters on the first weekend of November in dubbed and subbed and it will also feature the 11th movie One Piece 3D Mugiwara Chase (also called Straw Hat Chase). This weekend, get ready for the third My Hero Academia movie. My Hero Academia: World Heroes’ Mission is the third movie and it will feature Deku, Bakugo and Shoto in a race against time to stop a global threat.

September 2021 Funko Pop Haul

Posted by

0

Greetings Pop fanatics! I bring you another Pop haul from the month of September. As my collection grows, my bank balance shrinks, but not too bad. Sit back and relax because here is what I got in this first fall season.

124. Leafa from Sword Art Online

Just like Kirito and Asuna figures from my August post, Leafa is another new addition to the Sword Art Online Funko Pop lineup. Just like how I got Kirito and Asuna, I preordered Leafa. However, for unknown reason, Leafa was delayed and pushed back. While I got the first two on August, Leafa came in later in September. Leafa is from the Sword Art Online series and is actually Kirito’s cousin. Despite being cousins, Kirito treats her like a little sister and her real name is actually Suguha Kirigaya.

125+126. Roman Senator Deadpool and LARP Deadpool 

I grabbed these two Deadpool variations in one of my dates. I bought these two figures and a GameStop bag and a Venom t-shirt. With Deadpool being a popular Marvel character, it’s no surprise he will be entertaining the crowd with his random humor. We have here Deadpool dressed up as a Roman Senator. Can you imagine Deadpool being in charge of an ancient government? Finally we have LARP Deadpool. LARP stands for Live Action Role Playing. I guess Deadpool wanted to take a break from killing for real and wants to indulge in some fake killing. Deadpool ditches the real weapons for a handmade cardboard sword and overalls with a belt for a headband.

I have a total of 126 figures

TGIF!

Thank God for Friday! Welcome everyone for another episode of Friday Funny. I hope everyone is enjoying the fall weather and smelling the pumpkin spice. Put down the Nintendo Switch and give me second to tell you a quick recap of news, and after I get done, you go back and play as Sora in Super Smash Bros Ultimate again. This past weekend, we had DC Fandome, a fan convention for DC fans for all the latest news in movies, video games and comic books. In the movie industry, on March 4, 2022, get ready for a new Batman movie called The Batman featuring Robert Pattinson. Also coming in 2022 is DC’s antihero/villain is Black Adam. Starring The Rock, get ready to see a dark counterpart of Shazam also known as Black Adam. Black Adam will be in theaters in July 2022. If Batman and Black Adam is not in your interest, maybe you’ll love the Red Streak himself, the Flash. The Flash movie will be joining 2022 as well and this movie will have Flash teaming up with Supergirl and Batman. Last but not least, I do bring in some sad news for anime fans. Voice actor Chris Ayres has passes away this week. In the Dragon Ball fandom, Chris is well-known for voicing Frieza in Dragon Ball Z Kai and up to Dragon Ball Super; he started in 2009 to 2019 for the series. He passed away due to COPD.

It has come to my attention that I bring you tragic news for the anime community. Yesterday, it was reported online that anime voice actor Chris Ayres has passed away due to fighting years with COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). It was first announced by his wife Krystal LaPorte in which she revealed the news on Twitter. He was only 56 of age.

He voiced Frieza starting from 2009 to all the way to 2019, from Dragon Ball Z Kai to all the way to the movie Dragon Ball Super Broly. According to Bounding Into Comics, he also voiced other anime characters in different anime such as Kei Kurano in Gantz and Ushio in Saint Seiya.

Review: Food Wars! The Fourth Plate (Spoiler-Free)

Rightstuf synopsis:

The ultimate Regimental Food War continues as the culinary rebels led by Soma and the members of Kyokusei square off against epicurean elitist Azami and the Totsuki Ten. At stake – the future of dining across Japan. Because if the rebels fail, Azami intends to impose his own tastes and techniques on the entire restaurant industry!

But the fine dining control freak has made a serious mistake in threatening the futures of Soma’s friends and family, as while the rebels may seem less experienced overall, this is ultimately a clash of skill, dedication, and, most of all, taste. That may be a recipe for disaster for the seasoned veterans! There are truffled times ahead, and it’s anyone’s guess as to whose goose will ultimately be cooked in the mind-roasting season long battle!

I hope everyone is enjoying the Crunchyroll/Adult Swim anime Fena: Pirate Princess because we’re going to be getting more original anime like this in the future. Revealed at New York Comic-Con, Adult Swim announced that the Crunchyroll original anime Blade Runner: Black Lotus will be joining Toonami on November 13th. Blade Runner: Black Lotus take over once Fena: Pirate Princess is finished and it will consist of 13 episodes. This Blade Runner anime takes place 10 years after Blade Runner Blackout 2022.

Another anime that got revealed was a trailer for the upcoming anime Shenmue the Animation. Based on the Sega game, Crunchyroll will be in charge of making this Shenmue anime. While the game had players explore lands Yokosuka, Hong Kong, & Kowloon, the anime will still have a linear story. There is no release date, but Shenmue the Animation will be joining Adult Swim and Crunchyroll in 2022.

Toonami news: Batman movies and Fena take over last weeks of October

As we enter the last remaining weeks of October, Toonami is going to make Saturday nights/Sunday mornings epic. If you need some anime for your weekend, Toonami is going to be doing something different for these last two weeks of October. On October 23rd, Toonami will be premiering the Batman movies Batman: Long Halloween Parts 1 and 2 after Fena: Pirate Princess. On October 30th, Toonami will be having a marathon of the anime Fena: Pirate Princess.

Batman: Long Halloween synopsis:

“Inspired by the iconic mid-1990s DC story from Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale, Batman: The Long Halloween, Part One begins as a brutal murder on Halloween prompts Gotham’s young vigilante, the Batman, to form a pact with the city’s only two uncorrupt lawmen (Police Captain James Gordan and District Attorney Harvey Dent) in order to take down The Roman, head of the notorious and powerful Falcone Crime Family. But when more deaths occur on Thanksgiving and Christmas, it becomes clear that, instead of ordinary gang violence, they’re also dealing with a serial killer – the identity of whom, with each conflicting clue, grows harder to discern. Few cases have ever tested the wits of the World’s Greatest Detective like the mystery behind the Holiday Killer.“

According to Toonami Faithful, Batman: Long Halloween is a dedication to actress Naya Rivera who voiced Catwoman in the movie. She passed away in 2020, but she was able to complete this movie project.
