The new release of Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair will finally include the entire Production I.G sequence that was not finished for the movie until well after the Cannes premiere in 2006. If you’ve caught it at The New Beverly, it didn’t include this sequence as it’s the same print from Cannes.
!["[Japanese Anime Studio] IG who did Ghost in the Shell said we can't do that and finish it in time for your thing. And you can't have a 30-minute piece in your movie.
"I said okay. It was my favourite part but it was the part you could drop. So we dropped it and then later when IG heard we were talking about doing Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair, they still had the script, so without even being commissioned, they just did it and paid for it themselves."

20 years ago today, IGPX premiered on Toonami. I wanted to do something for the anniversary but I just didn’t have any time and I’ll be traveling today, so instead have a look at some rarely-seen production art. Celebrate the anniversary by getting the Blu-ray: store.crunchyroll.com/products/igp...

And done! My costume is as a Joann’s employee. Lot of duct tape required for this Halloween classic. You can almost see the optimism in my eyes as someone who doesn’t yet realize that the store’s closing.

It is too cold to work out in the garage today so I thought I’d give Fitness Boxing a try from my living room. Other than Billina barking at me, it was fun. More of a workout than I expected. Keeping it in rotation for days like today where working out outside/garage were out of the question.

It is taking all of my willpower not to start up Luigi’s Mansion and stay up all night to play it since it just went up on NSO.

I find it very interesting that Nintendo has the CRT filter on for this one despite not doing it for previous Gamecube game announcements.

Man, if only YouTube channels put out their videos on physical media. YouTubers, maybe it's time to bring these back:

So, I almost didn’t buy the DLC for Donkey Kong Bananza because it was a lot to buy it with the base game and then this happened. Worth every penny.

…they haven’t hinted at it at all when this would have been the time to do it. Seems like a hugely missed opportunity to really hype up whatever comes next.

I’m positive the show could continue, whether that’s a movie finale or a condensed season to wrap up the story in full, but I guess they chose a safe anime-only scene to send the series out on a positive note. Kinda strange since the last cosplay has shown up in the ending credits all season and…

My Dress-Up Darling decided to do an original anime ending instead of ending on what would have been an amazing cliffhanger (and a bit of downer note) by following the manga and that’s a bit disappointing. Pretty good season overall, but I wish they’d have set up the final major cosplay to end it.

The weakest part about the (great) My Dress-Up Darling anime adaptation that it cuts a lot of the cosplay crafting from the manga. The characters are more important, because if we don't like them then what they're making doesn't matter but I still think more time could be made for crafting.
