LEGO and Pokémon first teamed up in March 2025, releasing three building sets: Eevee (72151), Pikachu & Poké Ball (72152), and a larger Venusaur, Charizard, & Blastoise model (72153). These initial sets were brick-built and didn’t include any minifigures. However, recent news indicates LEGO is now developing Pokémon minifigures, though it’s still unknown how many sets released in 2026 will feature them.

Many other shonen anime consistently deliver quality, without any truly weak seasons. While some seasons within a series might be better than others, even the slower ones are usually still enjoyable and satisfying. We can’t fully evaluate one-season anime like Chainsaw Man or Undead Unluck just yet, but many other shonen titles have maintained a good or at least acceptable level of quality throughout their entire run.

The Sims 4 has a huge and active modding community that’s still thriving almost 12 years after the game first came out. While the game developers, EA and Maxis, continue to release new expansion packs, many players prefer to heavily modify their game with mods – some of which add as much content as the official paid expansions. Recently, the game introduced a marketplace where mod creators can sell their work, which caused some debate among players. However, players can still download mods from websites outside of the in-game marketplace as they always have.

Sharing experiences with others makes things like movies, TV shows, and games much more enjoyable. While it’s easy to watch something together, games require both players to be truly engaged in the story to create a powerful effect. Cooperative games have improved a lot over time, and the best ones offer amazing shared adventures. Let’s explore some of the best co-op story games available.

I often found myself lingering at booths, chatting with developers and trying out demos. Several games really stuck with me, even after I’d left the event and was heading home.

Much of the conflict in Naruto originally stemmed from the ancient rivalry between Asura and Indra Otsutsuki, a feud carried on by their descendants, particularly the Senju and Uchiha clans. However, as the story unfolded, this clan conflict became less central to the plot. This makes sense when you consider that Naruto Uzumaki, not a member of the Senju clan, was the reincarnation of Asura, which is why the Senju weren’t featured prominently in the manga.

There are two main reasons why remaking Ocarina of Time makes sense right now, and why it would be a perfect game for the Switch 2. First, the game is a classic, and a remake would appeal to both longtime fans and new players who might not be interested in the older version. Second, the Switch 2 is powerful enough to finally bring Ocarina of Time‘s world of Hyrule to life with stunning graphics, seamless exploration, and updated gameplay features like realistic lighting and physics. It would allow for a complete reimagining of the game’s iconic moments.
Ah, Japan, the land of the rising sun and the bewildering intersection of tradition and innovation. Here, the stock exchange operator JPX has opened a public comment period-a modern-day town square debate-on whether to banish companies whose primary assets are crypto from the hallowed halls of index inclusion. Metaplanet, the Tokyo-listed Bitcoin treasury firm, stands squarely in the crosshairs, its 40,177 BTC gleaming like a digital samurai’s sword. One cannot help but wonder: is this a battle for the soul of Japanese finance, or merely a bureaucratic squabble over ledger entries?

I’ve always loved Isekai, and while it hasn’t quite reached the same popularity as something like Shonen, I’m really seeing that change! Series like Mushoku Tensei are just incredible and are helping Isekai gain the recognition it deserves. If you’re looking to jump in, I’ve put together a list of some fantastic Isekai shows you can stream right now on Crunchyroll!
