Most Horror Anime Is Dark And Gritty. This One Is Gorgeous

31.3.2023
Most of the time, horror is ugly. Whether they’re chunky zombies in Dead Island 2 or grotesque titans in Attack on Titan, the objects of our attention are intrinsically repulsive to us. Hell’s Paradise tries a very different approach. The manga, which ran from 2018-2021, juxtaposes beauty with...

The player known as Let Me Solo Her has become an icon in the Elden Ring community in the year since FromSoftware’s action RPG launched. It started when he used the game’s online co-op features to help a player fight Malenia, one of the game’s hardest boss battles, wearing nothing but some...

Anime Voice Actor Asks Fans To Please Bathe Before Her Concert

6.3.2023
Nerdy conventions and concerts can be a lot of fun, a great way to meet like-minded people and share your love of something with others. They also have a reputation for smelling bad, as certain people attending may not be taking care of themselves as much as you would hope…or even bathing at...

28.2.2023
Just when you thought it was safe to freely scope out CRTs at celebratory nerd gatherings, one of the best cosplays from this year’s ATL Comic Convention has reminded us of at least one nasty issue with old cathode ray tubes: Sometimes ghostly girls can crawl out of them. Or at least that’s what...

Like A Dragon: Ishin!: The Kotaku Review

23.2.2023
In the opening chapters of Like A Dragon: Ishin!, a samurai becomes an exiled criminal after his father is assassinated in front of him. A year later, his brother offers him safety and power in exchange for his loyalty. All he has to do is turn a blind eye to the powerful lords who could have...

Forspoken: The Kotaku Review

30.1.2023
Forspoken is a painfully flawed game. With a variety of rampant inconsistencies, its stilted presentation belies a gem of a story that centers women and feminine expression. In some ways that makes Forspoken a welcome breath of fresh air for fantasy games, as its 15 to 20 hour open-world campaign...

We Need To Start Holding Japanese RPGs To Higher Standards

9.11.2022
I had one hell of a weekend. After I published my piece on Final Fantasy producer Naoki Yoshida’s misguided comments about the next game’s overwhelming whiteness, the fans completely lost their minds. Sure, I saw the usual slurs and petty insults. But those weren’t the comments that stuck to...

Sonic Frontiers Is Nostalgic But Tedious, Say Critics

7.11.2022
Sonic Frontiers reviews have just hit the internet. From what we’ve seen so far, critics think it’s a good game. It’s just not necessarily a great one. Nostalgia softened some of the disappointment, but it couldn’t completely paper over its numerous shortcomings. The story is just okay, but you’re...

18.10.2022
I’ve been covering cosplay for well over a decade now, and in that time I’ve seen loads of books, posts, YouTube videos and even TV series about the subject. What I had never seen, until now, was someone actually go and make a documentary as slick and comprehensive as Cosplay Universe.Read more

The long-term silence on the Suikoden games has mystified us, you, everyone, for over a decade. But Konami moves in mysterious ways, and last night at the Tokyo Game Show, the company knocked everyone off their chairs by surprise-announcing remasters of the first two games, due next year.Read more

Our Favorite Cosplay From C2E2 2022

16.9.2022
The Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo, aka C2E2, was one of the very last shows we got to feature before the pandemic hit in early 2020, so it’s great being able to welcome the event back into the rotation in 2022 after a couple of years on the sideline.Read more

This Optimistic New Manga Is Why I Subscribe To Shonen Jump

9.8.2022
I started reading Akane-banashi because I didn’t want to start a manga that was hundreds of chapters long. I thought that I’d be able to briefly sample a new series, cancel my Shonen Jump sub, and then go back to chipping away at my games backlog. But Akane-banashi caught me completely flat-footed...
