It’s tricky to say whether female protagonists in shojo anime are better developed than male protagonists in shonen anime. However, by looking closely at recent trends in manga and anime, we can start to figure it out. Here’s a detailed look at the topic.
Wow, episode 9 of Witch Hat Atelier was a whirlwind! We got to see Qifrey’s apprentices really working on their magic, and he hinted at all the challenges ahead for anyone wanting to become a full witch. But things took a really interesting turn when Qifrey, secretly, tried to figure out what connected Coco to those mysterious Brimmed Hats. It didn’t go well – there was a ton of magical energy unleashed, a lightning strike, even a waterspout! It was almost disastrous. Sadly, the only clue he had – Coco’s ink bottle – got broken in the chaos, leaving us with even more questions. There was a really cute little moment between Coco and Agott, but it was cut short when Coco suddenly got a terrible fever. Qifrey had to rush her to Kalhn, and then he was confronted by Tartah, who clearly wants answers. I’m on the edge of my seat to see if Qifrey will tell him anything!
It’s a shame, but many promising anime series lose steam towards the end, leading to disappointing finales. Despite strong starts, engaging characters, and interesting storylines, these shows often stumble when it matters most, resulting in endings fans would rather forget.
If you’re a fan of Jujutsu Kaisen, you probably know about the Shibuya Incident – a huge, devastating attack orchestrated by Kenjaku. His goal was to trap the incredibly powerful Gojo, and the arc was filled with shocking moments, including the deaths of fan-favorite characters and the full awakening of Sukuna. Millions of cursed spirits were released, and Tokyo was essentially abandoned. Beyond the intense action, the Shibuya Incident was praised for its gripping story, which removed any sense of safety for the heroes and shifted the series into a truly frightening thriller. Now, fans can celebrate this iconic arc with some brand-new, collectible merchandise.
CD Projekt Red (CDPR) recently updated the PC requirements for its game, Cyberpunk 2077. The change, announced quietly on their support pages in late May 2026, means players will now need Windows 11 to play. This is because Microsoft is ending support for Windows 10. While Microsoft originally planned to stop support in October 2025, they will offer Extended Security Updates until October 2026. However, CDPR will no longer test future Cyberpunk 2077 updates on Windows 10.
My dear readers, it appears that Grayscale, that stalwart of asset management, has decided to take a leaf from my book and exit stage left-at least for the time being. The firm, which had been preparing for its grand entrance onto the public stage, has now paused its IPO plans, citing the crypto market’s rather uncooperative temperament in 2026. How très tragique.
What this means: Hyperliquid is being touted as the new backbone of finance, the skeleton on which the future will hang its hat. (Or is it just another backbone in a graveyard of forgotten blockchains?)

The new LEGO Batman game, Legacy of the Dark Knight, clearly draws a lot of inspiration from the Batman: Arkham series, particularly in its combat system – it feels very similar and almost like a deliberate nod to those games. While it’s fun to experience Batman in LEGO form, the constant reminders of the Arkham series are a bit odd. As much as I’m enjoying this new game, it actually makes me want another Batman Arkham title even more, which is disappointing because it seems unlikely to happen.
