I can’t even begin to describe Labyrinth, the new movie by Shoji Kawamori. If you are familiar with, say, Aquarion, then you know he can get pretty out there sometimes. Imagine a Hosoda Internet Movie filtered through the lens of Arjuna and you might be about 50% of the way there, though. Loved it.

Could really do with 2026 @lovesanimation.bsky.social dates being announced asap though so I know when to not book concert tickets for. I already have one booked in November 2026, and this is how I ended up not being able to do SLA Edinburgh this year.

I’m actually in the mood to watch anime again, which doesn’t happen often anymore with Crunchyroll making anime so damn unenjoyable. Thanks to @liceas.bsky.social and the @lovesanimation.bsky.social team for reigniting that spark.

In one word: Incredible.

In two words: utterly deranged.

Shoji Kawamoris Labyrinth might actually be my favourite movie of the year, but I kinda don’t really want to spoil anything.

This movie is better than last year’s. And I say that having had to watch the movie without subtitles when I was in Japan earlier this year. I am eager to watch it with subtitles and not have to try and guess what characters are saying.

And, from Zavvi, I received @alltheanime.com’s The First Slam Dunk 4K steelbook.
