It’s the last week before Christmas, and realistically the final release week of 2025, and this week you’ll find the Shiro Edition ofGhost in the Shell – 30th Anniversary Edition Steelbook Set from Crunchyroll as well as The Glassworker on 4K UHD Blu-Ray, Blu-Ray and DVD from Dazzler Media available on store shelves (and online) …
Vampire Can’t Suck #11 — The Empty City
The school festival will continue until morale improves. Impressions: Ugh. This doesn’t end this week? Not only that, but we’re for all intents and purposes extending the school festival ‘arc’?
