WEEKLY ANIME ROUNDUP

Welcome everyone to the weekly anime roundup , here I will be talking about stuff that took place in the anime industry over the past week. I will not be covering every little thing that happened over the week , but things that I feel to be substantial and worth mentioning.

UNSHŌ ISHIZUKA PASSES AWAY AT 67

Unshō Ishizuka , who has voiced many iconic characters like Jet Black from Cowboy Bebop and Mr. Satan from Dragon Ball Super passes away at the age of 67. This person has been a major part of my anime fandom because of his brilliant voice acting in some of my favourite shows and I will always remember him for his contributions in the anime industry. It is also extremely heartbreaking to see some people memeing his death. I understand that there will be people who are not familiar with his work and thus might not care about this news but still joking about someone's death is just insensitive and distasteful. So , yeah check out some stuff that he has contributed in and you will surely enjoy his voice acting.

ALICE IN MURDERLAND TO END AFTER ONE MORE CHAPTER.

Alice in Murderland manga will be completed after one more chapter which would also complete the eleventh volume of the series. Mangaka , Kaori Yuki did previously say that the manga will finish after the eleventh volume so this was pretty inevitable. I first heard about this manga last year and instantly added it to my "to read list" due to its cover art and title but I never got around to read it. Now , that it has ended , I have ordered the first three volumes online and am very excited to give it a read. English translations of the manga are available upto the eighth volume so consider giving this one a read.

WE NEVER LEARN IS GETTING AN ANIME ADAPTATION.

Now , there is yet to be an official announcement , atleast at the time of me writing this blog , but recently a new twitter account has been opened and it's handle is "bokuben_anime" and GMO internet, Inc also registered the domain name "boku-ben.com". All this does suggest that an anime adaptation is incoming and I hope that it is. If you guys are unaware I really like the manga of We Never Learn and it's mangaka Taishi Tsutsui is one of my favourite mangaka of all time , after all the first "mangaka spotlight" blog that I did was on him. So, if you have not yet read the manga then I highly recommend you to do so and if you want to check out some other stuff from the mangaka then make sure to check out the mangaka spotlight that I did on him. You can check it out by clicking here.

That's all I want to talk about this week , not a lot happened over the week that I thought to be substantial. Of course JoJo part five's release date is out , it's coming out on October fifth but I don't really care about it as I have never watched the anime ( I have read the manga) and I don't plan to but it is something that a lot of people are excited about and thus I have mentioned it.

Thank you everyone for reading , subscribe to the blog or follow me on twitter @allaboutanimee  for updates on whatever I publish in the future. Share the blog if possible and have a nice day.

MANGAKA SPOTLIGHT #1: TAISHI TSUTSUI

Today we will be taking a look at all the manga that Taishi Tsutsui has worked on , I will be talking about each one of them and comparing them as to showcase the journey that the mangaka has been through for the past decade. We will be starting with his first ever manga , Esprit. Esprit is a fantasy , action manga from Taishi Tsutsui , it is set in a world where numerous islands are called "homes" and people of a particular home have little to no knowledge about other homes. These homes are discovered and are kept in check by the agents of the "ocean affairs agency" , from here on I will be referring to these agents as OA agents (ocean affairs agents). These OA agents have certain powers called jinxes which stem from a person's faith. For example ,  if I believe with all my heart that I can cause weather changes then I will gain that power or jinx. The story follows an apprentice OA agent Mio and her friends' adventures , as they explore these hom...
