Anime Review: Mashle
In a world where magical abilities are the norm, a non-magical guy uses his supreme physical strength. Action-packed. Simple and crude mild parody. Still enjoyable.

Study: Sharks Need Buddies Too
A study by N.D. Marosi et al titled “Rolling in the deep: drivers of social preferences and social interactions within a bull shark aggregation in Fiji” posted on 17 March 2026 shows that bull sharks, Carcharhinus leucas, are perhaps more socially complex than the “lone shark” image. The paper is about 16 pages and is an interesting read. The observations were made at the Shark Reef Marine Reserve (SRMR) in Fiji from 2018 to 2023. Dives were made five times per week at three

Escorts Headed for the Strait of Hormuz?
Washington DC – The intense standoff and the threat of mines in the Strait of Hormuz have elicited calls for the use of escorts. “I think ships will need lots of help from escorts,” said Professor Abweichler of International Affairs. “It’s a pretty tense situation so I think escorts will help.

Comics Review: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin II
Nicely produced with execellent art. The story is not bad even if it is more of the same: the Foot it gone but there are rival gangs, corrupt government and police, and a new player our heroes have to deal with.

Anime Review: Macross Zero
As a prequel, it is different but is fitting enough to the Macross universe. Nice designs and is one of the earlier anime works to use extensive CG. It can look better but decent effort.

Geneva, Switzerland – Experts are warning of the new COVID strain detected in most countries, dubbed the “Hormuz” variant. “We’ve given up on using Greek letters or numbers, cos they don’t sound sci-fi and scary anymore,” said Professor Lenny Bollocks.

The variant has subsequently been tracked in all continents. Countries suc

Anime Review: Jujutsu Kaisen: The Culling Game Part 1
The mains characters split up so this season can feel unfocused, but this is mitigated somewhat by the quick pacing. Visually, it saves the budget for set pieces in the latter half of the season.
