This week, after looking back on some lingering thoughts between fan and industry convention post pandemic, we look at the latest Asian battle lines in the evolving competition between video streaming services at length. Then in brief we talk the North American Box Office, WWE getting into the anime game, J-Novel Club having a new majority owner, the chase to make a live action version of one of Ghibli’s most famous works, and the passing of a key person from 80s past. Before ending as we continue to look ahead in May
