Everyone has that one show. It s the anime that s so good we can t stop talking about it.but for some reason, everyone else is talking about other shows. Here are our off-the-beaten-path recommendations for otaku looking for something new.
Bandai’s Digimon franchise is deeply beloved and hit at just the right time for kids who grew up in the 90s. But it’s one of those properties whose earlier installments have been difficult to get physical releases of for one (usually rights-related) issue or another. Fortunately, things are about to change, because several older Digimon media are making the jump to Blu-Ray.
Black Rock Shooter celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2020, which led to things like Huke creating a special illustration and a new English Blu-ray release being announced. Now, Good Smile Company shared its contribution, the 1/7th scale Black Rock Shooter: inexhaustible Ver. figure. It will launch in May 2022 in Japan and June 2022 in North America and places Black Rock Shooter atop a Rock Cannon that can actually light up.
The figure has Black Rock Shooter with her mechanical wings extended. Multiple shades and sorts of black paint are used for her hair, equipment, and outfit. The cannon’s flames also use a gradated, translucent blue material. If someone plugs in its USB cable into the base, the flames will light up.
