Not all of them, but yeah if you search hard enough you are going to find some weird shit like the isekai where the guy decide to put a pizza hut, then you have another that he decide to put a convenience store and other that was the peak of edgelordism, it was about a isekai about a hero that defeated the demon lord but because political shenanigans he was branded a nuisance now and the kingdom that summoned him betrayed him and after tons of battles they manage to kill him, when he died he is resurrected at the point where his journey started because the other like he had was just the tutorial mode, lets just say that the first thing he saw (again) was the princess that ordered to kill him and he was not very happy to the point that the scene is very comical, she begin to say the classic lines of "oh hero we need your help" but he did not let her finish the sentence by punching her in the stomach and slaughtering all the guards that were with her, and that is only the prologue, the thing continues in very CIA Black ops site mode, stopped reading it because the thing was so hilariously edgy that was more comical than gross, someone in IRC told me that further ahead he joins the demon lord army out of spite

Novel updates is a magical place

I kind of want to read that now, it sounds like a fun read lol
 
As we're banging on a bit about Isekai. I found out about Isekai Yakkyoku, which is a nice twist on the isekai genre, where instead of going off to slay the demon king or whatever, the reincarnated person comes in and overhauls the medicine market in the new world. He has some cheat powers and suchlike, but it's kind of sweet in how he aims to save everyone he can, rather than storming around slashing shit with a sword.

Isekai is a surprisingly multi-facetted genre, when the author isn't just going for the most lazy "Self-insert hero goes off to slay demons and accumulate a harem" shtick.
 
it's been a while since Netflix announced Evangelion,but there's an interesting trivia about it:though they haven't officially announced it yet,but thanks to leaks and hints from certain sources,it has been known that new dubs are being produced for it around the globe by Netflix(people speculate there are licensing issues that are not allowing the older dubs to be used for streaming on Netflix),however,for both Portuguese and Spanish in Latin America,that will make the THIRD dub the series is getting there for both languages in just 20 years,but it will be the very first time Death and End of Evangelion will get a dub and official release there.

First dub was from 1999 when it was broadcasted on Locomotion,then it got a new dub in 2008 when it was broadcasted on Animax since they used the Renewal masters and the updated audio required a new dub,plus the Director's Cut episodes got dubbed for the first time.
Only Shinji's and Gendo's VAs from the first dub were kept in the hispanic version,while the Brazillian version got almost everyone back from the first dub(and,by the way,the pilots were voiced by actual kids in the 1999 dub,but their voices aged well into adulthood so they all got to reprise them in the 2008 dub). Rei's Mexican VA from the first dub had recently hinted she may reprise her for the Netflix dub which means they may intend to get the cast from the 1999 dub back(though some of them like Asuka and Touji have since passed away...)
 
I don't know why but I'm currently addicted to Case Closed aka Detective Conan. Whenever I tell myself "just one more episode and then I'm done for today" it always translates into ten more. I will admit it's fun to guess who the episode's culprit is. Or as our hero Shinichi aka Conan himself would say:

"What is best in life? To expose the criminals, see them arrested before you and hear the lamentations of their sob stories!"

I mean, you ain't wrong.

I was on a big Detective Conan kick in the early 50s and around the 200/300 episode mark. I kinda fallen off from it, but I check out new openings from time to time or check out Kaitou Kid episodes.

I happened to recently pick it up by accident on TV again as it aired after the Ghost in the Shell: Arise movies (which I BTW also enjoyed). Needless to say I remember why I liked Detective Conan. I also recently watched the movie The Disappearance of Conan Edogawa: The Worst Two Days in History. It was pretty good.
 
I need to make a decision on when to start Detective Conan, especially since I successfully caught up to One Piece in the amount of time I did. I'd be that one dumb-ass who'll start it from the very beginning, of course, though I feel like I'd finish the 1,000+ episodes of Doraemon faster than Conan, I dunno. (Are all of the 1979 Doraemon episodes even available, now that I think about it?)

I assume as much as are available, and if all of them are, probably not all of them are in the original Japanese.

I only see a torrent with 230 episodes, but that's on Nyaa and I'm not a member of any private tracker. It's a very recent torrent too- December 2018.

I would think all 1700+ episodes have not been collected anywhere, especially not in decent quality. As the poster above said too, even if they are available, they're untranslated.
