We’re rolling into the holidays here with just a few days to go until it arrives as of this writing and that means we’re getting one of the weirder weeks of the year. Lots of stuff shuts down on the domestic side for holidays and quieter release periods whereas things in Japan are gearing up for the winter 2019 season. That means an array of announcements come out from Japan but also announcements on the domestic side for pickups. So it’s all a bit scattershot. So we go for some housecleaning in the mix and a few fun articles, such as our Ten Years Later pieces that last week focused on Golgo 13 and a Twenty Years Later piece for Neo Ranga.
We’re also looking for new reviewers!
