So, Murcielago is a manga about a super serial killer woman with 715 homicides to her name, Komori (she the titular “bat”, since “murcielago” means exactly that, but in Spanish) gets her death penalty halted due to the city being overrun with crime, and Komori gets into assisting the Japanese police in tackling other murderers and criminals that the regular police force fails to catch, helped by the expert driver Hinako and the daughter of a yakuza boss
Komori is also a super lesbian and she basically tries to get into the pants of the many extrabosomed female characters, and even without her there’s a lot of nudity just shy of scissoring because i don’t think you could get away with that on Shonen Gangan. not quite.
It’s delectable action yuri exploitation trash, i love it, i’ve been following and buying the volumes for the past years, but given there’s so much premarital selbian gex and hyperviolence, i never really expected it to get an anime adaptation, heck, it’s ridiculous how much difficult is to see new horror anime exist, which is why i’m not really expecting a Franken Fran adaptation or something.
Yet, a few days ago a teaser trailer for the Murcièlago anime just popped up, and yes, my birthday was earlier this year, but whatever, it may be on time for that since is slated for a generic “2027 release” and i guess will stream on HIDIVE in US territories, we don’t have that here..
Speaking of more upcoming anime adaptations, tomorrow drops the new GITS anime by Science Saru on Amazon Prime Video, i’ll have the prepared review of something else “related” up as planned, i might do an EXPRESSO review for this series, but i plan to mostly give it a full review this September,
On the subject of season 2, Saga Of Tanya The Evil (aka Strike Witches but if WWI Girl Hitler was the protagonist) will be back, i’m slowly hunting down the manga releases here. Almost a decade later, but this also begins tomorrow and i assume it’s streaming only on Crunchyroll for most countries.
The SBR situation is becoming a bit less stupid since we have a release date for Episode 2, the 25th of September, and after that we’ll get the other 9 episode of this batch on a weekly release date.
So yes, alongside the 1st Stage/Episode fuckery they are doing a batch splitting, cours as they call them, which i don’t blame anyone for, given how even more overworked are the animation studios and how commitees are also deliberately playing the long release game, so to speak, like we’ve seen for One Piece, among others.
Still, maybe if Netflix had actual people that wanted to manage proper these project, the outrage could have been completely avoided, but i guess trying to string Jo Jo fans along and hope they remain subscribed for the new episodes won’t result in even more people cancelling their subscription.
More puzzling to me is how a third AOT game is actually happening, launching this winter for current gen consoles (if you managed to get one, that is) and PC, like, the anime concluded after 10 years in November 2023, why is TK announcing it just now? Am i missing something?
Feels extra weird since they add to make an expansion to AOT 2 just to cover season 3, but whatever, it’s a good enough excuse for me to review that one, as i did review the first AOT game by Omega Force in detail.
Last but not least, the review of the last remaining EDF title to cover (Global Defence Force Tactics on PS2) here might get delayed to August… mostly due to the simple fact the game is way more massive than i believed, and i’d prefer to beat it for review. It really is just that.
Sorry.
