The newest Tokyo Ghoul: re chapter came with this message, further suggesting that the anime coming in April will follow manga continuity and not what Root A did with the story. I hope this is the case since Re is one of the best manga currently being released and it would be a shame for it to be poorly adapted.

Eps 1-110 of The Legend of the Galactic Heroes are now on HiDive Binge Legend of the Galactic Heroes on HIDIVE

I'm hoping this means an announcement for a date of the physical won't be too far in the future.

Now all we need is Keijo....

didn't poland try recreating that as a sport last year or something? I'd totally watch the next Olympics if that becomes a thing though. I'm imagining it'd look more awkward then the series (because real people need this thing called balance) but they'd totally be able to do the butt cannon... and end their career

Does it come with Japanese audio or is it English dub only?

I still haven't watched that dub trailer, but the sub trailer was released towards the end of last year. I think it works better with the sub - Joker was voiced well.
