New Retro Wave has started a new talk show featuring interviews and music videos from some of the heavy hitters who are currently active in the Post-80s Synth Music Scene. Only three episodes have been made so far. It will be interesting to see where this goes as it develops. The first episode is Gothic/Halloween themed. The "Nightmare on Elm Street" gag was pure gold. I had mixed feelings about the second episode. I'm not as familiar with this Josh Dally fellow. I'm sure he's probably a nice bloke and everything but, as a purist I feel that doing crossover titles blending contemporary pop with retro synth pop sounds kinda defeats the whole purpose of going retro in the first place. Let 'em Riot had a song with similar themes/lyrics that was way better than Dally's was at the end.* Although Futurecop! has had a distinguished run in the synthwave scene, they too have been guilty of major no-nos in some of their music in years past. I suppose that at the end of the day, it's a matter of taste. I am very particular. --> * In the third episode, I thought that the first song by the featured artist that was showcased was rather weak. Second song was okay, and the third one was really good. I think it was awesome that she actually came forward as a Type-O fan. Extra cool points just for that! NewRetroWave - youtube channel NewRetroWave - Official Website

Is Saya Kisaragi from the anime Blood-C actually just a Filipina aswang from pre-Spanish colonial era Philippines? In the anime Blood-C, Saya Kisaragi's origins are shrouded in mystery. She isn't even Japanese. And her real name is just Saya. Her last name Kisaragi is fake. In all honesty, we don't even know if her real name is Saya at all. Her real name would have probably been native female Filipino Tagalog such as Luwalhati, Diwa, etc. Her real last name on the other hand, would have been native Filipino Tagalog such as Atabay, Dimasupil, Una, etc. Despite her youthful physical appearance, she is actually much older. A lot of people said that she is an Elder Bairn but there are also ones that say that she is something else. As for her looking like a Japanese teenage human girl, this probably isn't even her real form. Her real form is probably that of tanned skinned Filipino teenage girl with large eyes and not that of a pale-skinned slanted eyed Japanese teenage girl. Her real form could have probably been like this long-black-haired tanned-skinned Filipina girl. She probably could have looked like Mayari from the webtoon Mayari. The webtoon Mayari is created by Azilim. Seriously, search up Mayari. I am not saying that the webtoon is connected to the Blood-C universe. I am just saying that Saya Kisaragi's real physical appearance could have been like that of Mayari. She could have probably used a supernatural power that changed her physical appearance from that of a Filipina teenage girl into that of a Japanese teenage girl. Keep in mind that aswangs have the supernatural power to change from one human form into another different human form. Seriously, those are one of the aswang's supernatural powers. Another thing that sets her apart from Elder Bairns is that she is a monster but looks like a human. She's probably not even an Elder Bairn but something else. So again, is there a possibility that Saya Kisaragi is actually just a Filipina aswang from Pre-Spanish colonial era Philippines? By the way, search up aswangs so you can understand what I am saying.

I don't know if you know about this horror anime but can you tell me its name? This horror anime is about a scary demonic sorceress teenage girl. In the anime series, it's not explained why she is absolutely passionate and happy about her job. Now this is where it gets interesting, her job is basically brutally attacking evil people. She doesn't attack evil people on her own will because she only does these grim jobs at the request of innocent people. Speaking of innocent people, she doesn't attack evil people at the request of other evil people. She only accepts requests from truly innocent people. More than that, no one can ever request her to attack innocent people. In her grim job, she had many ways of brutally attacking evil people. This includes: Brutally killing one or more evil people. Laying a curse that brutally torments an evil family/group for their whole lives. Sometimes, the curse brutally kills one of them. Giving an evil person torment and extremely bad misfortunes for the rest of his/her life. Taking one or more evil people to supernatural realms where they will be brutally killed, tortured to death, or tortured for all of eternity. Torturing one or more evil people to death. Etc. It's been shown in one anime video clip that the types of evil people that the demonic girl attacks included brutal government dictators, ruthless clan warlords, terrorists, gangsters, perverted stalkers, and high school bullies. As for the innocent people that requested her to attack evil people, it's also not good for them because they will eventually pay heavily for requesting the sorceress girl to do her grim job. The ways in which they have to pay is by them dying, dying brutally, being tortured to death, or having to do something very difficult in order for the sorceress girl to grant their requests then they will brutally die or be tortured to death after the sorceress girl completed their requests. About the demonic teenage girl Abilities: The sorceress girl is very powerful as she is basically omnipotent. She is also immortal because she doesn't age and her life doesn't expire. She lives forever. She rules multiple supernatural dark realms. She has legions and armies of demons and monsters. She is basically the most powerful entity in the entire anime according to the anime video clip. It seems like she has 14 demonic servants that are important in the anime according to the anime video clip. Her legions and armies of demons and monsters act in very inhuman otherworldly freakish ways. They never act like humans or show human emotions. They are very bizarre. For example, some of her demon servants don't act like humans or show human feelings and instead, are mostly quiet while showing weird faces and the only noise they make are creepy inhuman screams. Personality: The sorceress teenage girl is mysterious, quiet, and a loner. She rarely speaks but if she does, she talks in a calm voice. Sometimes, her facial expression is blank and other times, she smiles calmly and modestly. She is still mysterious in that nothing is known about her past or her background. It's not even known if she is originally human or something else but it seems that her origin lies in Japan and she speaks fluent Japanese. She doesn't go to school and just roams the whole world. She doesn't have a human family. During normal casual times, she is calm. Such as when she's just calmly talking to a random innocent person on the streets in the morning. But during times where she is doing her grim job of brutalizing evil people, she is creepy and monstrous but there are also times where she is scarily quiet. She is very passionate and happy about her grim job of attacking evil people and feels no sadness or horror from it. Despite all of this, she never kills or hurts innocent people except when they request her to attack evil people. She also only attacks evil people when innocent people request her to do so. Appearance: She has long straight black hair. Her hairstyle is basically the classic hime-cut that is often featured in many animes except that her bangs aren't straight cut but are a bit pointy downwards. Also, the bottom ends of her long hair are pointy downwards. She looks like a 15 year old girl. She has fairly pale skin. She is not fat or thin because she looks fairly physically fit. Her eyes are not red, blue, violet, etc. but are black. During normal casual times, she wears some kind of old-fashioned Western clothes. The clothes have a skirt that goes below her knees. She does not wear a Japanese school uniform. During scenes where she is doing her grim job of attacking evil people, she wears completely weird clothes that aren't even traditional clothes(like a kimono or a medieval European dress) or even old-fashioned clothes but just something straight up weird and otherworldly. Conclusion: The only sources where I got all of this information from are the anime video clip and two full episodes of the anime. During my vacation in Japan, I watched the two episodes on a Japanese channel that doesn't seem to be popular. During my vacation, I visited an important person I needed to meet. I visited him for two days. It was in those two days when I discovered this anime that I am talking about. I was watching the two episodes on his television. Unfortunately, I haven't completely watched the whole episodes so I don't even know the name of the anime, the sorceress girl, or even the names of the two episodes. The first episode that I watched involves an African lawyer adult guy doing extremely difficult things such as cutting off both of his feet as some kind of ritual to the demonic girl so that she will brutally attack a violent thuggish African rebel group who kidnapped the African lawyer adult guy's daughter and held the African daughter captive. The African lawyer completed the ritual. After completing the ritual, what happened is that the demonic girl supernaturally teleported the entire African rebel group to some supernatural realm where she and her demonic army brutally tortured all of the African rebel group members to death. In one of the following days, the African lawyer was brutally killed by the sorceress girl in front of his daughter which made his daughter cry. The second episode I watched mostly takes place in a city and this involves a teenage girl requesting the sorceress girl to exact vengeance against an abusive powerful rich political upper class family who is constantly oppressing the teenage girl's middle class family. One member of the middle class family who was a girl was raped by one of the members of the upper class family. Another member of the middle class family who was a boy was killed by another member of the upper class family. The teenage girl requested the demonic girl for help. What happened afterwards is that the demonic girl placed a curse on the upper class family that gave them extreme misfortunes and extreme sufferings and this curse tormented them for the rest of their whole lives. Two of the upper class family's members even brutally died. As for the short anime video clip that I just watched, I just watched it on some website that isn't even popular. Unfortunately, the person who posted the video clip on the website didn't even give the name of the anime. It's kinda like those Youtube videos where they show interesting shows or movies but do not give their title. Also, I can't find the website anymore so it was probably taken down and I don't know why. You're probably asking how I found this website. Well after I watched the horror anime's two episodes, I got interested in the anime so I started browsing about this anime on the Internet. Since I don't really know the title of the horror anime, I just typed whatever I know about the horror anime and that's how it took me to the website. Unfortunately, the person who posted the video on the website didn't even put the title of the anime. Another thing that sucks is that there is also nothing in the video clip that reveals the name of the sorceress girl. Nothing! Absolutely nothing. I don't really know much about this horror anime except for the fact that it started to be made this year 2022. I don't know if it was based on a manga or if it started as an anime. The anime is truly scary except for the fact that evil people have it far worse. What makes it charming is that it isn't just scary during the scenes where the demonic sorceress girl attacks evil people but the entire episodes. Basically, there is always a tension and thrill involving the mystery of the demonic girl and there is always drama in the lives of the innocent people that requested the demonic girl's grim help. This anime is indeed a true horror anime about demons and monsters but it's not just that because it seems like it also touches on serious mature real-life human issues such as revenge, terrorism, bullying, corruption, tyranny, greed, crime, racism, oppression, murder, rape, economic discrimination, social discrimination, etc. Another thing that I like about this anime is that it is multicultural in that it isn't just Japan where the anime takes place but also in other countries. Also, one unique thing about this anime is that the characters originating from other cultures and nations speak their own languages and not just Japanese while in most animes, all of the characters can only speak Japanese. For example, the first episode I watched featured the African characters speaking local African languages instead of Japanese. I think this is the first time that the Japanese creators hired diverse voice actors. Overall, I like this diversity. So does anybody know the name of this horror anime?

Share your favorite scary vids. Here's one of my personal favorites after playing the original Silent Hill.

Hi!! I was researching about the book The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, by Robert Louis Stevenson, and while reading the physical descriptions of Edward Hyde in the book, I was wondering about something. So Hyde is described as "pale and dwarfish", with rough, corded hands, which is pretty straightfoward. But then it says that he has "something displeasing" and "down-right detestable" in his appearance, and that he was giving "an impression of deformity without any nameable malformation". So how do you think this can be translated into anime/manga?

How many of you have seen Godzilla Anime Trilogy? From what I've read, these movies are heavily divisive among the fans and general audience. Me and my friend watched all of them in the same day. There definitely were a lot of flaws we could see, but we could see a lot of merit these movies bring to the Godzilla mythos with fresh, unique ideas and concepts. We made a video where discussed in detail about all three movies, giving our individual scores in each area what worked or didn't work for us, before giving the overall final score: What did all of you think of these movies? I sometimes feel like that the hate from the general audience came because they were expecting something similar to those two recent American Godzilla movies, with their catering towards "fan service" and entertaining action scenes. Do these movies deserve all the scrutiny they get, or is there something more to them?

What Gory Anime should I watch? Since both are relatively short, Elfin Lied, Or Genocyber?

The unfinished sketch I did: Just in case someone doesn't know who she is:

Spent 1 minute on this story. Don't expect much from my lazy ass.. There once was a very curious shapeshifting kitty whom loved playing with dangerous things. She was so evil that she had to be abandoned and put up for adoption. The pet shop's owner had the mischievous little demon returned to her countless times. *Is awaiting to be adopted by her new owner(s) with a grin on her face* Kitty's current mood: Actual mood:

My 2nd pen fanart. I had never tried cross shading with ink eehee.
