Tenchi Muyo Returns!

Tenchi Galaxy Kickstarter Now Live!

With the help of Masaki Kajishima, Toru Miura, Hiroshi Negishi, and fans from around the world, Armiger Entertainment is proud to present the spiritual sequel of Tenchi Universe: TENCHI GALAXY!

TENCHI GALAXY follows the Tenchi gang as they travel to the planet of the space pirates, MIKUNI, in search of an artifact that was stolen from Jurai. In order to get it back, they must face NIIMI, the queen of the space pirates. What dangers await them? What connection does Niimi have to Ryoko? And whose side is Nagi on?

Tenchi, the girls, and Ryo-Ohki return to the screen just as you remember them.

Detective Kiyone will be appearing in anime form for the first time since 1999, along with Nagi and Ken-Ohki for the first time since 1995!

We personally reached out to the classic English voices of Tenchi Muyo! to see if they would be interested in reprising their iconic roles for another adventure...and they enthusiastically agreed!

We also have some exciting newcomers to the franchise to announce: Cristina Vee is stepping into the role of the one and only Princess Ayeka!

In addition, hololive English Advent's devilish diva and virtual idol Nerissa Ravencroft is portraying the spunky space pirate: Risa!

The Next Club Meeting is July 18, 2026...

Complete History of Ghost in the Shell

We're covering the entire Ghost in the Shell franchise, from the manga to the films to the video games to the multiple animated series, plus books, short stories, and theater plays.

There's probably some stuff I missed, but this is as thorough a Ghost in the Shell retrospective as I can make, so sit back with a cold can of natural oil and dig in.

The net is vast.

Anime Expo 2026 Full Walkthrough

July 2-5, 2026

Los Angeles Convention Center

Los Angeles, California

The first Anime Expo was held from July 3–6, 1992, at the Red Lion Hotel in San Jose, California. Many of its original staff came from Anime Con, an anime convention held in San Jose in 1991, and later absorbed by the SPJA in 1992. In 1994, Anime Expo made a strategic relocation to the Southern California area, and all subsequent conventions have taken place there since.

It currently holds the title of North America's largest anime convention, a title which it has consistently held every year except in 2003, in which its attendance was slightly edged out by the East Coast anime convention Otakon. From 1,750 attendees in 1992, Anime Expo's size has increased to over 107,658 in 2017, making Anime Expo the largest anime and manga convention in North America.

Love is Not Rocket Science...

NOT ALONE

Joe, who lives a secluded, solitary lifestyle, finds himself sheltering three aliens: Dunk, Welly, and Shirm. The trio is on an interstellar escape from the overzealous Officer Zandro, and deduce that Fran's rocket will safely get them home.

Story of the Boy Who Would Be Known as Zeami...

The World Is Dancing

One does not need dance to live. In 1374, during the turbulent age when the Northern and Southern Courts were locked in conflict, the Northern Court’s shogun, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, was becoming an increasingly dominant force.

Born the son of Kan’ami, head of the Kanze troupe of sarugaku performers, Oniyasha drifts through his days with a hazy question lodged in his heart: Why do people dance? His spirit remains clouded, until the day he encounters a dance that is truly “good.”

Curious, sensitive, and strikingly beautiful, the boy meets people, laughs, cries, confronts his own weaknesses, and slowly begins to shape a new form of dance for a world steeped in impermanence.

Kazuto Mihara’s groundbreaking Noh themed manga from Morning finally comes to life as an anime, filled with scenes that stir the heart and dynamic movement and chanting that can only be expressed through animation.

Directed by Toshimasa Kuroyanagi (The Great Passage, Backflip!!) and animated by Cypic (Uma Musume: Cinderella Gray, The Summer Hikaru Died), this series showcases top tier animation supported by a standout cast.

This is a story shaped by dance that may have unfolded when the boy who would one day create Noh—Zeami—was still known as Oniyasha, carried across 600 years to the present.
