When Sleeper was first introduced on First Host, it considered both Eddie and the Other as parents, with an instance of calling Eddie "father" before it left Earth towards the end of the book.

Then when it returned during Absolute Carnage, it made it a point to only call the Other as its only parent, not including Eddie, having only calling him on a first name basis going forward. And that seems to have stuck in its later appearances.

I mean, it's a weird continuity issue but not much of a biggie in the grand scheme of things. It's a mere observation I've had of the character lately (and likewise for others over at Venom Twitter).

Panels are from: The Nativity (Venom #165), First Host #5, Absolute Carnage (Venom 2018 #18), All-New Venom #5, and Queen in Black: Venom Unchained #2.

Those in attendance weren't allowed to record the episode off our phones but I did took pictures of a BTS clip they played out on stage.

The Tagalog dub is directed by Montreal Repuyan, who also wrote many of the dub scripts of the episodes as well as voicing a number of characters in the show.

Si Mark Muñoz naman is the Tagalog voice for Sakura. I think kuha naman niya iyung character ng bida. The episode itself felt very pilot-y, na medyo pinaliwanag lahat sa isang episode iyung pasan ni Sakura sa daigdig at largely naresolba ang unang conflict na kanyang hinarap.

Sana ma-upload ng Muse ang lahat ng episodes sa YouTube channel. :)

I'm not sure if I could post the video I took of Sukuna performing Malevolent Shrine against Mahoraga here (perhaps I'll do so at the r/animedubs forum) but I'm glad there were only minimal cuts throughout the episode.

The more obvious cuts were of Haruta's death scene (a quick narrator spiel then it jumped to his body lying on the ground, dead); and of the aftermath showing Yuji breaking down as "Specialz" plays in the background, the broadcaster cutting off the chunk of the song due to time constraints before Yuji rises up and bookends the episode.

I ordered this last July and it had only arrived in my LCS a week ago. I could have gotten it sooner but the store got hit by shipping delays, which is an unfortunate but tolerable downside when you live outside the US.

Nevertheless, it's still an iconic issue that I can read over and over, whenever, wherever (cue Shakira song).

*For clarity, the comic I'm holding in the picture isn't mine as the one I ordered has already been wrapped and placed in my bag when I took this pic. Hehe

I wasn't able to fully finished the episode but yes, they seemed to have gutted a good chunk of the it, from >!Toji slicing and dicing Megumi's bunnies to the scene showing Toji's face with his weapon stabbed into his skull, among other things. He just asked for Megumi's name, smiled then it cuts to him on the floor, dead.!<

Jogo vs Sukuna had some very obvious but seamless cuts if it involves any cutaways of civilians getting caught in the middle.

Next week will be Part 2 and I'll be tuning in for that one for sure (before heading off to a con that day).

*The title supposed to have "gutted". I didn't realize until posting that it was autocorrected to "gutter".

I've watched this show countless times as a kid and while I can say that I've just about watched all the episodes from all those reruns, I always felt like there were a couple of things that the show never touched upon again and quickly moved on.

One is when Mystique came out of that weird enhancement chamber towards the end of Season 1, looking bulked up and more scaly-looking as well as getting a JoJo-fied jaw. Season 2 came and she was mostly absent until she returned without those enhancements but sports a new hairdo and styled black.

Another is when Mystique was petrified and just as there was a sure solution for Kurt and Rogue to restore their mom back to normal, the latter threw her body off the cliff and broke her into pieces. And now suddenly, we see her back again, whole and now a Horseman of Apocalypse. I guess that should answer how she came back from her petrified predicament but it's such a cheap way of writing her back into the canvas without much of an explanation.

I'm cautiously optimistic because there's always a chance to do a refreshing take of a popular storyline in every Spider-Man adaptation.

My worry would be if they'll rehash and reheat the same nachos from TAS for the nth time again, treating the symbiote as a parasitic being trying to take control of Peter.

What we know for certain based on last season and what has been recently confirmed during D23 are the following:

• The symbiote will come from the living remnant that was cut off from the symbiote being that attacked Peter at the start of the series.
• It will bond with Peter because no Symbiote Saga cannot begin without him being bonded to it first.
• Eddie Brock will appear.
• We know there are other symbiotes out there, and but whether the other dimension we saw from Season 1 was Klyntar is yet to be confirmed.

With the exception of the Ultimate Spider-Man series, which had Harry and later Flash as the host, we never got to see how Eddie's time as Venom play out past the initial bonding and inevitable vendetta because the show was either canceled (Spider-Man Unlimited and Spectacular SM) or the Sony movies likely forced Disney to write him out quietly (Marvel's Spider-Man 2017).

So yeah, one thing I'm hoping is we get past the vendetta phase of Venom this time around. Like, it's been there, done that at this point. And we're getting 10 episodes again for Season 2, aren't we? I worry they won't be able have the time needed to cook, especially if it's gonna be a villains-heavy season.

I came into this kinda hoping (as opposed to expecting) a different outcome as far as Peter's fate in this would be because the summary for the issue described Peter has having had a mental breakdown after being buried alive for two weeks, giving him an understandable but twisted reason for him to turn to the Other, bonding with it and becoming a version of Venom pre-Eddie Brock.

I think we got a hint of that but I wasn't so sure with how they approached the climax because just as Venom finally has his chance to strike at Kraven, Peter somehow was sane enough to stop himself from doing so. Was Ashley Kafka's therapy sessions with him really that effective?

Anyway, the ending felt more like a course-correction back to 616-continuity where Kraven still died in the end and he died with the symbiote still trapped inside his corpse, with someone who we can assume is Brock, planning to excavate Kraven's grave to claim it for himself.

Also it does feel like a similar rodeo with Life Story's take on the Last Hunt and Peter's Black Suit phase (since it also ends with the symbiote bonding with Kraven there as well).

I knew I shouldn't be expecting a clear deviation at all but it's a What If story where an established story is supposed to deviate far in the realm of possibility. Like I kinda wanted Peter embracing the Black Suit all the way.

Spider's Shadow is a good example of that but that one has the benefit of having multiple issues dedicated on that particular take on Peter and how it took a while for him to reject the symbiote. What If...The Other is a good one although it did kinda scratched my head how Peter was still trapped inside his cocoon after rejecting his inner spider before he was consumed by the symbiote and became Poison.

So yeah. :)

It airs weeknights sa Solarflix.

It's basically your typical love story about lovers from different worlds who fight against all odds pero amped up to a 100 with all the twists and turns, mula simula hanggang sa nakakasabog na pagwawakas.

It stars Burak Özçivit (Kemal), Neslihan Atagül (Nihan) and Kaan Urgancıoğlu (Emir).

Finally got around buying this today on my way to work.

I am expecting greatness upon reading this.

By the way, I have read a few KC-adjacent stories, which I shared about in this thread before regarding Magog so I know the gist.

Excited still to having my own copy for me to read although I'm aware some aren't fans of the compact format so I'll see for myself.

Music video features My Adventures of Superman Season 3, Blue Lock, Tokyo Revengers, IGPX, One Piece and Blue Exorcist.

New line-up beginning August 1 are as follows:

Never got to record the part of the episode where Yuji said this the first time but still. 😂

I do expect so much of those episodes will either have any scenes with blood greyed out or the violent parts be cut out because, well...Censorship sucks.
