According to Keiichi Arawi's Twitter, he wants to draw again so Nichijou/My Ordinary Life is resuming publication six years after he ended it.

EDIT: In context, I guess he meant he wants to draw Nichijou again since he's also currently working on Amemiya-san, launched a couple of months ago, and he finished CITY earlier this year. I had originally thought "he wants to draw again" meant he hadn't drawn a regular series in 6 years but I haven't been paying attention to his other series.

I hope it’s good. It’ll be interesting to see how much Mio and Yukko have changed over the years, since we all know Mai is too pure and Nano and Sakase still remain the same with robotics and a talking cat.
 
So is Tokyo Revengers any good or is it just fujobaby's first delinquent manga?
It's actually a good manga + the author has credentials.

His previous manga Shinjuku Swan is a great manga about the seedy nightlife business in Kabukicho.

Here's a taste of Shinjuku Swan:

Sucks that Kurama had to die in Boruto… If they had killed off Hinata instead of all of the useful characters that they killed off… Poor Kurama would still be alive and well.. Hinata is a terrible character and ruins everything she touches. RIP big guy. You died for absolutely nothing..
Don't worry I'm sure your gay fox will come back, bringing characters back from the dead is about the only DBZ element Naruto/Boruto hasn't borrowed yet.

I mean, the first half of the ninja world war was 'everyone who died is back and stronger', that boat sailed years ago

Has the Zombieland Saga trailer been translated anywhere? Can see it almost completely ignoring the alien invasion from the stinger of Revenge
 
Binged Jojo Part 5 over the course of a few days.

One thing I'm still kinda confused on is the nature of how people get their stands. It's explained that Dio got his stand through one of the arrows Enya bought from Diavolo and that the Joestars got their stands through Dio's influence. Many of the stand users acquired their stands through the arrows, but some users are born with them like Avdol. Was it because one of his parents or ancestors got infected by the stand giving virus from that meteorite? Or did one of them got hit by the arrow at some point? Not sure if it's been explained already in a future part or not.

Regardless, I really enjoyed Part 5. It's kind of a toss up between it, Part 2 or 3 that's my current favorite part at the moment. One aspect I noticed and kinda like is how every part post Part 2 (that I've seen so far) has the main character in more of a supporting role despite technically being the main character. Joesph was more of the driving force in Part 3 than Jotaro, who only went along because his mom's life was in danger, many of the episodes in Part 4 focused on the character development of people like Koichi and Rohan and in Part 5 Bucciarati was the "Capo" of the group Giorno was in and was ultimately the one who gave the orders.

Everyone dying just for a character to go "haha it was just a prank nothing happened they're alive again..." already happened in the Pain arc.
I actually completely forgot about that. I guess kakashi and Hinata being dead for like 5 seconds didn't leave much of an impression.

With stands they don’t really explain how certain people are born with it much beyond some spiritual stuff since lots of weird supernatural shit occurs in Jojo outside of what’s shown in the main parts as shown with the Thus Spoke Rohan series

As for about the supporting Jojo all I’ll say is that Part 5 is the last part where a Jojo acts in just a supporting role.

So yesterday, I found out that this Ichigo 100% fan made AMV has over 47 million plus views, and I’m still trying to figure out why.
>incredible low quality video
>still has the subs
>Windows Movie Maker tier transition effects
>most of the amv being clips with little sync to the music

That is some vintage amv right there, almost makes me feel nostalgic in its awfulness. There were still pretty well done amv back then, like this one came out a year earlier:
It's just for some reason many of the early amv all had the same 'feel' to them, outside the ones people did for amv contests. Even then, old amv were where I got most of my anime recommendations from.

Think the amv I've seen with the most views is this one for the movie Hotarubi no Mori e. Quick warning that it basically spoils the whole movie.
