An AI anime VTuber named Neuro-sama is now the most popular Twitch streamer in the world — and she’s not even real.
She also streams tirelessly 24/7 and probably doesn’t eat much.
Is THIS the future of streaming? Some other streamers seem to think so. It’s so over, man. Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
After the killing of Charlie Kirk, it’s very possible we could see a crackdown on video game censorship. Why?
Well, the suspect was allegedly an avid furry who played some pretty lewd games on Steam that are making headlines.
How long until Boomers in the government decide that furry games — and maybe anything anime-based — causes violence. It’s happened before…Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
ELon Musk says we are now in a new era of Big Bang Intelligence. Grok 4, the new Musk venture into artificial intelligence, will be inventing new useful technologies by the end of the year.
Is this a great time to be alive, or are we on the cusp of a truly dystopic era? Here’s more from Mr. Reagan.
Elon Musk’s Grok AI just dropped new “companions” and one of them is a spicy anime girl named Ani.
Of course, the media HATES this. And they hate that they just closed a deal with the Department of Defense on the same day. Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
Animated television shows have begun sliding down that slippery slope, using ChatGPT to produce their translations. The latest to be busted: Crunchyroll, Sony’s video on demand service that imports a lot of Japanese anime. Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
Is anime getting BANNED in Texas? Well, maybe. Kinda sorta.
A bill is making its way through the government that could ban any media that features POTENTIALLY underage LOOKING characters in lewd acts. This could hit anime as characters look “underage” even if they’re like 23. Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
Trump announced new 100% tariff on foreign film production in an effort to (supposedly) keep Hollywood productions in America. But the details are vague.
Do “foreign films” include anime and k-dramas? What about American produced films shot overseas? Will this help or hurt an already struggling Hollywood film industry?
Grab some popcorn… Here’s more from Clownfish TV.
Bridget Phetasy takes on the great White House Ghibli meme debate. Did Robert F. Kennedy Jr. serves as the model for the ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) agent hauling a fat fentanyl pusher across the border? Here’s more from Bridget.
Hey kids (of all ages), it’s Saturday Morning Cartoon time again!
Last week’s Saturday upload was 1978’s FREEDOM FORCE, a short-lived Filmation superhero ‘toon that included Super Samurai, whom I described as a “less sci-fi version of Ultraman”.
Now, the name Ultraman has been used in DC comic books for various alternate universe, bad guy counterparts to Superman. It was also used in self-reference by a teenager with superpowers in the late ’80s sitcom MY SECRET IDENTITY. But I wasn’t writing about those guys…
You see, back in the ’60s and early ’70s, Japan sent us a show featuring a giant super-dude doing battle with leftovers from Godzilla’s movies. ULTRAMAN was a live-action program, done with the titular hero in a silver and red wetsuit judo-fighting rubber-suit monsters in the midst of miniature buildings while the Science Patrol flew around in toy planes on strings with small pyrotechnics in them… We freakin’ loved it!!!
Nippn Sunrise, now known as Sunrise, handled the animation. Ultraman spawned a whole franchise of follow-ups, including cartoons! Today we have a classic bit of Japanimation (from before everyone got uppity and rechristened it ‘anime’) introducing a new incarnation in 2D. From 1979. More from the OldHorseman.
Did Patreon just ban all anime? What does “Japanese Style” even mean? How old are digital pixels? These are things that Patreon apparently wants to control now. More from The Quartering.

In related news, REDDIT has effectively shut down The_Donald, the largest Trump forum anywhere online. This is the craziest act of censorship we have seen yet and we have witnessed scores upon scores of bizarre and flagrant cases of censorship over the past year. More from Tim Pool.
What else besides Donald Trump, anti-vaccine commentary and climate change epistles do the censors want to ban? How about anime. It comes in all sizes and shapes. Some of it is family friendly and some of it is not. The government is now cherry picking to try and prove their point and ban anime. More from The Quartering.
