Masanori Morikawa of Christian Dada, a fan of the original manga designed the mask and other costumes for the Tokyo Ghoul live-action film. Kubota will be wearing the mask in the Jump Festa event in Chiba. The said event will also screen two minutes of exclusive live footage on Sunday.

Alongside Masataka Kubota (Death Note, Mars, Photo Braver 7) who will cast as Ken Kaneki, is Fumika Shimizu (Kamen Rider Fourze, HK Hentai Kamen, My Neighbor Seki) who will play the role of Toka Kirishima.

Other actors include: Yuu Aoi as Rize Kamishiro, Nobuyuki Suzuki as Kotaro Amon and Yo Oizumi as Kureo Mado. The film is directed by Kentaro Hagiwara and will open on theaters in Japan next summer.

Fans of different anime series had some serious issues with how the previous live-action film adaptations were served. Although history has shown some awful portrayals, there are still some live-action creations that fans fell in love with and scored high among critics.

This begs the question of whether the highly anticipated Tokyo Ghoul live-action film will be as awesome, thrilling and breath-taking as its anime version. Kaneki's fandom are probably keeping their eyes on the exact date of its release. Its live-action trailer is also expected to sprout around the corners of YouTube and different anime news websites. Watch out for it!

Tokyo Ghoul from Viz Media follows the story of a shy boy Ken Kaneki who will be first seen having a date with the beautiful Rize Kamishiro. It turned out that the girl is only interested in his body - devouring it, that is. A morally questionable rescue from being eaten transformed him as the first half-human half-ghoul hybrid. Ken was dragged into the dark and gory world of ghouls which horrifyingly co-exists with our own.

A Japanese live action movie or series of Yoshihiro Togashi's masterpiece, Yu Yu Hakusho seems to be 100% badass.

Live Toguro Brothers


This video with Live Toguro brothers circulated recently and it gave some fans an impression that the 90's anime hit will make an awesome comeback. Of course, who could blame these guys if they keep craving for a taste of Togashi's work after the mangaka's other hit series Hunter x Hunter went into an indefinite hiatus for the nth time.

However, this video is actually a commercial for the smartphone game Monster Strike. As part of the crossover, Yu Yu Hakusho's Toguro brothers is promoting the mobile app while announcing their collaboration with the said game.



The famous Japanese comedian Naoki Matayoshi appears as the Elder Toguro. He is carried by the younger brother who is busy playing the game. Elder Toguro then announces Yu Yu Hakusho's participation and revealed that "he is not in it". He expresses his grief and longing to be part of this new smartphone app.

Matayoshi's portrayal earned praises from many fans saying that he fits the role perfectly. Many said that he should play as the Elder Toguro shall the producers decided to launch a real live action series or movie of Yu Yu Hakusho.

Another comedian, Oniyakko Tsubaki appeared in another 50-second commercial of Monster Strike. She comes in as Toguro's elder sister and plays the game with her brothers. Onee-chan later gets mad at the younger sibling for the disinterest.



The video ended with Elder Toguro reminding his sister than their younger sibling has always been like that. A small part of the song, Hohoemi no Bakudan can be heard playing in the background while the animated images of the protagonists are being shown.

Monster Strike uses a life-size statue of Younger Toguro on its promotions. People could climb on it just like what Tsubai and Matayoshi do as shown in the commercials.

Deleting a YouTube channel with over fifty million subscribers is like burning lifetimes of paychecks. No wonder that most people on the internet are skeptical that PewDiePie would really just throw away one of his biggest investments.

But did PewDiePie really take his YouTube down?


Yes. His other channel Jackscepticeye2 has been deleted. So he kept his words but not exactly as others perceived. Deleting that channel with more than 50,000,000 could earn Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg the 'most stupid YouTube celebrity' title.




Although he made some valid points on how YouTube advertise irrelevant videos in your feed, PewDiePie may have realized that ditching his source of income is not worth it. Some may see this as a joke, but the whole of it is really fantastic.





That's an ingenious way to double-up the attention that he gets. We assume that YouTube has their radar on this and may be contemplating to implement a drastic change when it comes to presenting contents to YouTube followers.

Kudos PewDiePie!

Time to hit the streets again with your smartphone and Pokéballs! The official international Pokémon Facebook page teases its fans of an announcement that new Pokémons will be added to the augmented-reality game Pokémon Go.

According to a Facebook post from the official page of Pokémon, trainers should stay tune on Monday, 12th of December for the formal announcement or possibility of a huge game update.



Starbucks may have leaked this info intentionally or unintentionally with their recent promotion. The famous coffee chain turned the majority of its shops in the US into Pokéstops or PokéGyms. A special Pokémon-themed Frapuccino is about to be introduced. This is no longer surprising as Niantic had previously confirmed that another way for the free game to earn money is through partnerships with retail companies. Apart from Starbucks, Niantic is working with McDonald's.

Ditto is the most recent addition to the game. Also, the nearby feature was morphed into something that's more helpful and exciting. With the huge possibility of Gen 2 monsters looming around the game by next week, isn't it just right for hardcore fans of the game to prepare for the upcoming chapter of their Pokémon adventure. Stock up on some candies maybe?

Time to become the very best again!
