Black Clover GN 8
manga
Even if it's not the most original Shonen Jump adventure, Black Clover has gotten good at working with what it's got. Rebecca Silverman get into this saga's eighth volume.

Justin follows up Wednesday's Answerman with a conversation about competition, service and consumer friendliness in the world of anime streaming.

This Week in Games - Seven Months With Nintendo Switch
games
Dustin runs down the highs and lows of Nintendo's newest console over the past year, along with this week's Japanese gaming news and new releases.
― The focus of this column is definitely not the SNES Mini. That's both because Todd already did an excellent write-up, and because the past week has seen me playing games on the Switch pretty obsessively—so much so that exploring the classics has been lef...

How to Get Into Muv-Luv
anime
This visual novel series with the extremely silly title may seem impenetrable, but it's well worth checking out. Chris Adamson explains what makes this franchise special.

Cyberdimension Neptunia: 4 Goddesses Online
games
Is this super-meta RPG worth playing for more than its jokes and fanservice? Todd Ciolek finds out.
― Neptunia is a series of inexhaustible potential. The central RPGs feature anime heroines who represent various game consoles and companies, and that makes for rampant and excusable genre parody.
