11:15 - 12:05 The Apothecary Diaries 5-6
The Apothecary Diaries
Plot Summary: The series is set in a fictional country modelled after Ming-era China. Maomao, a young girl who works as an apothecary in the red-light district,
is kidnapped and sold to the Imperial Palace as a servant. However, she
still retains her curious and eccentric personality and plans to work
there until her years of servitude are over, without drawing the
attention of anyone. One day, after hearing the rumors that the
emperor's children are critically ill, she begins to investigate the
cause, using her experience as a pharmacist, and successfully solves the
mystery of their illness. Even though she intends to remain anonymous,
her actions eventually catch the attention of an influential eunuch, and soon finds herself solving various mysteries in the royal court.
Plot Summary: Taking place between the late 19th century and early 20th century in a world filled with supernatural and magical creatures, Tsugaru Shinuchi, a half-demon, alongside servant Shizuku Hasei, leave Japan and embark on a journey across Europe to retrieve the body of Aya Rindo, who was decapitated by an unknown villain prior to the start of the series with only Aya's head as the living evidence for the journey.

FRIEREN
Plot Summary: The story follows elven mage Frieren,
a former member of the party of adventurers who defeated the Demon King
and restored harmony to the world after a ten-year quest. In the past,
the heroic group included Frieren, human hero Himmel, dwarven warrior Eisen and human priest Heiter. Before they part, they observe the Era Meteors together, a meteor shower
that occurs once in fifty years. Frieren agrees to see them again and
offers them a better view the next time the celestial event occurs.
Frieren then departs and travels the world in pursuit of magical
knowledge. Frieren returns to the capital fifty years later; however,
humanity has changed, and her former companions have distinctly aged.
After one last adventure to see the meteor shower, Himmel dies of old
age. During the funeral, Frieren expressed guilt for not attempting to
learn more about him. Frieren then pays a visit to her other former
comrades. She accepts an offer to teach and care for Fern, an orphaned
child adopted by Heiter. She also receives an invitation to travel far
north, to the resting place of souls, and see Himmel again to bid the
hero a fitting farewell and express her feelings. To fulfill those
requests, Frieren embarks on a journey together with Fern while still
pursuing her passion for learning magic. Frieren's elven nature grants her an extremely long lifespan,
causing her to view periods of years or decades as ephemeral (this
perception of time makes her consider the ten-year adventure with
Himmel's party a fleeting experience). The story thus takes place across
a long time, with periodic flashbacks accompanied by the physical and mental development of characters apart from Frieren herself.
2:25- 3:15Solo Leveling 1-2
SOLO LEVELING
Plot Summary: In a world where hunters — human warriors who possess supernatural
abilities — must battle deadly monsters to protect mankind from certain
annihilation, a notoriously weak hunter named Sung Jinwoo finds himself
in a seemingly endless struggle for survival. One day, after narrowly
surviving an overwhelmingly powerful double dungeon that nearly wipes
out his entire party, a mysterious program called the System chooses him
as its sole player and in turn, gives him the extremely rare ability to
level up in strength and turn anyone he kills into a loyal minion
called a shadow. Jinwoo then sets out on a journey as he fights against
all kinds of enemies, both man and monster, to discover the secrets of
the dungeons and the true source of his powers.
3:15- 4:40Attack on Titan: THE FINAL CHAPTER
ATTACK ON TITAN:The Final Chapter
Plot Summary: The Scouts and Warriors lands on Eren's rib cage and incapacitate the
Beast Titan before realizing that it is simply an empty shell with Zeke
nowhere to be found. Before Armin has a chance to transform, he is
captured inside a Titan's mouth. Suddenly, countless iterations of the
former Nine Titans appear on Eren's back, created by Ymir Fritz as a way
to defend him from the group's assault. While the Scouts try to rescue
Armin, Pieck attempts to decapitate Eren's Titan with explosives, only
to have her Cart Titan impaled and lifted away by the War Hammer Titan's
replica before she is able to pull the trigger. Bertholdt's Colossal
Titan replica appears above the battlefield and bites the head of
Reiner's Armored Titan off before hurling the body down at the Founder's
ribcage. The Scouts are scattered by the resulting impact, with most of
them falling off the spines and forced to hang onto the ribcage so they
don't fall. Just as the team is nearly defeated, Annie and Gabi appear
on the back of Falco's new flying Jaw Titan and carries most of the team
out from harm's way. Levi divides the group into two teams to rescue
Armin and to attack Eren's nape. The sight of Falco's Titan inspires the
Marleyan military at Fort Salta to keep fighting, but they are soon
distracted by the arrival of the Eldian refugees from Liberio. Jean and Reiner head for the Founding Titan's nape, joining up with
Pieck in an attempt to blow off the head with the same explosives she
tried to detonate earlier. On the other end of the Eren's Titan, Mikasa,
Conny, and Annie attempt to chase down the Titan that captured Armin,
but are stopped by the Colossal Titan. Armin discovers Zeke inside the
Paths, who explains to him that Eren understood what Ymir could not let
go of even after 2,000 years and that is why she sided with him. Zeke
does not believe escaping the Paths is possible or worth pursuing given
that everything simply dies in the end, but Armin convinces Zeke that
even the smallest things in life have meaning. Suddenly, Zeke remembers
the time he spent playing ball with Xaver. Realizing he still cherishes
those memories, he helps bridge the gap between the previous inheritors
of the Titans, allowing Xaver, Grisha, Kruger, the Galliard brothers and
Ymir's Titan replicas to break free of the Founder's control to help
their comrades battle the remaining replicas. Zeke emerges from one of
the Founding Titan's spines and calls out to Falco and those riding on
his back, particularly Levi. While marveling about how nice the day looks, Zeke allows Levi to
decapitate him, which severs Eren's ability to continue the Rumbling.
Jean gets to the detonator and sets off the explosives around the
Founding Titan's neck, decapitating it. However, a glowing centipedal
creature emerges from its neck in an attempt to reconnect the head.
After being rescued, Armin attempts to use the explosive power of his
Colossal Titan's transformation to kill it, but he fails and it runs off
towards Fort Salta. Meanwhile, Falco flies down to the Liberio
refugees, but the reunion between the Warriors and their families is cut
short when the centipede creature turns the nearby Eldians, including
Jean, Connie and Gabi, into Titans to help defend it. Reiner, Annie, and
Pieck engage the Titans and the centipede creature to prevent it from
reconnecting with Eren while he transforms into a Colossal form of the
Founding Titan to fight Armin's Colossal Titan, leaving Mikasa and Levi
as the only ones left who can kill Eren. Jumping off Falco's back
mid-flight, Levi uses a thunder spear to destroy the Founding Titan's
mouth exposing Eren's real head within. Mikasa immediately enters the
Titan's mouth to behead Eren and permanently end the Rumbling. As a
result of Eren's death, Ymir is freed from the Paths which allows her to
pass on. The centipedal creature responsible for the source of the
Titan's powers vanishes and all surviving Eldians turn back into humans.
Armin suddenly remembers a conversation with Eren that the latter
intentionally wiped from his memory.
The Elden Ring People made a Gundam Game... and NAILED IT
Let's check out something that is sure to be a treat to any Gundam Fan out there. Remember that little dev studio that made Darksouls, Sekiro, and Elden Ring? Yeah, FromSoftware, those are the folks. Well, it turns out, back in 2012, they released a Gundam game: Mobile Suit Gundam: Unicorn. Unfortunately, it never received an English release, but don't let that deter you. The game is VERY accessible and playable for those who don't read or speak Japanese. Sure, you may miss out on the story bits, but as long as you've watched the first three episodes of the show, you're good to go. Incredible visuals, sound, and game-play make the journey offered by this game one worth experiencing.
Determined to fulfill her lifelong dream of exploring the stars,

Disney and Pixar didn't get a single nom for Best Animated Feature at the Annie Animation Awards, for the first time since its inception in 1992. This after a string of critical and commercial failures like Lightyear, Strange World, and Wish.
Has Disney lost the home game?
For the first time since the Best Animated Feature award was introduced at the Annie Awards in 1992, neither Disney nor Pixar received a nomination in this category for the 2024 awards. This unprecedented situation occurred despite the release of several potential contenders from Disney and Pixar last year, including "Wish" and "Elemental." This development might reflect a challenging phase for Disney and Pixar, especially considering the mixed reviews and performances of their recent releases like "Elemental" and "Wish." The last time Pixar won the Annie for Best Animated Feature was in 2020 with "Soul," and the last Disney movie to win was "Zootopia" in 2016. The winners of this year's Annie Awards will be announced on February 17.

STAR WARS: Even Disney FREAKING OUT over GUARANTEED FLOP Activist REY movie?!
As more and more older interview clips of Star Wars Rey’s activist director Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy of the World Economic Forum (WEF) fame comes to light, the more the built in-audience freaks out. In an interesting twist though, there is now evidence to suggest Disney’s higher ups are freaking out and having second thoughts as well!
The series portrays a fictional past, present and future wherein Earth encounters an alien civilization from a nearby system of three sun-like stars orbiting one another, in an example of the three-body problem in orbital mechanics.
During the Cultural Revolution, Ye Wenjie, an astrophysics graduate from Tsinghua University, witnesses her father get beaten to death during a struggle session by Red Guards from Tsinghua High School. Ye is officially branded a traitor and is forced to join a labor brigade in Inner Mongolia, and is later sentenced to prison. In prison, Ye is recruited by Yang Weining and Lei Zhicheng, two military physicists working under Red Coast, a secret Chinese initiative to use high-powered radio waves to damage spy satellites.
After working with them for some time, she learns that the stated purpose is a front for Red Coast's true intention: the search for extraterrestrial life. Ye discovers the possibility of amplifying outgoing radio waves by using microwave cavities within the Sun and sends an interstellar message to test her theory, but tells no one else. Eight years later, now in a loveless marriage with Yang, Ye receives a message from a concerned alien pacifist from the planet Trisolaris, warning her not to respond or else the inhabitants of Trisolaris will be able to deduce the Solar System's location and invade Earth. Disillusioned by the political chaos and having come to despise humankind, Ye responds anyway, inviting the Trisolarans to come to Earth to settle its problems. She murders Yang and Lei to keep the alien message secret.
Some time later, with the end of the Cultural Revolution and Ye's return to Tsinghua as a professor, Ye encounters Mike Evans, a hermit and the son of the CEO of the world's largest oil company. Evans is also a radical environmentalist and anti-speciesist. Seeing that Evans is direly angry at humanity as well, Ye confides in him and tells him about the events at Red Coast. Evans uses his inherited financial power to hire men and purchases the Judgement Day, a giant ship which he converts into a mobile colony and listening post. Upon receiving messages from Trisolaris, validating Ye's story, Evans announces the creation of the militant and semi-secret Earth-Trisolaris Organization (ETO) as a fifth column for Trisolaris and appoints Ye its leader. According to the messages, the Trisolaran invasion fleet has already departed, but will not reach Earth for 450 years.
The society attracts numerous scientists, minor government officials, and other educated people who are disappointed with world affairs. They assemble a private army and build small nuclear weapons. However, Evans retains control of most resources and starts to alter and withhold alien messages from Ye and others. Furthermore, the society splits into factions, with the Adventists, led by Evans, seeking complete destruction of humanity by the Trisolarans, and the Redemptionists, led by Shen Yufei, seeking to help the Trisolarans to find a computational solution to the three-body problem, which plagues their planet. A third, smaller faction, the Survivors, intend to help the Trisolarans in exchange for their own descendants' lives while the rest of humanity dies.
In the present day, Wang Miao, a nanotechnology professor, is asked to work with Shi Qiang, a cunning detective, to investigate the mysterious suicides of several scientists, including Ye Wenjie's daughter Yang Dong. The two of them notice that the world's governments are communicating closely with each other and have put aside their traditional rivalries to prepare for war. Over the next few days, Wang experiences strange hallucinations and meets with Ye. Wang sees people playing a sophisticated virtual reality video game called Three-Body (which is later revealed to have been created by the ETO as a recruitment tool) and begins to play himself. The game portrays a planet whose climate randomly flips between Stable and Chaotic Eras. During Chaotic Eras, the weather oscillates unpredictably between extreme cold and extreme heat, sometimes within minutes.
The inhabitants (who are portrayed as having human bodies) seek a way to predict Chaotic Eras so they can better survive. Unlike humans, they have evolved the special ability to 'dehydrate', turning themselves into a roll of canvas. They do this in order to lie dormant when the Chaotic Eras occur, saving valuable resources that otherwise would have been wasted. A second individual is required to rehydrate their body, as self-rehydration is not possible. Characters resembling historical figures, including Aristotle, Mozi, and Isaac Newton, fail to produce a model for the planet's climate, as multiple civilizations grow and are wiped out by large-scale disasters. It is Wang who ultimately happens upon the insight that explains the climate of Three-Body, and wins the acclaim of the others. The planet is part of a system with three suns, whose distances from the planet and thus their appearance and disappearance in the sky are stochastic and hard to predict. When two suns are far away and Trisolaris orbits the third, the climate enters a Stable Era. When the planet is too close to two suns, the climate is disrupted, causing a Chaotic Era. If it is close to all three suns, a planet-wide firestorm occurs. If all three suns are distant, the planet enters an ice age. Eventually, at a future time impossible to predict, Trisolaris will collide with one of the suns and be consumed. The game shows the Trisolarans building and launching colony ships to invade Earth, believing that the stable orbit will allow unprecedented prosperity and let them escape the destruction of their planet.
Wang is inducted into the ETO, and informs Shi of one of their meetings. This leads to a battle between the People's Liberation Army (PLA) and the society's soldiers, as well as Ye's arrest. The PLA works with the Americans, led by Colonel Stanton, to ambush Judgement Day as it passes through the Panama Canal. To prevent the crew from destroying records of their communications with the Trisolarans, the team follows Shi's suggestion to use Wang's nano-material filament in a fence, which will quickly cut the ship apart and kill everyone aboard but will not damage the computer systems beyond repair. From the Trisolaran communications, several revelations are discovered. The Trisolarans possess extremely advanced picotechnology that allows them to create 11-dimensional supercomputers called "sophons" which, when viewed in three dimensions, occupy the volume of a proton. Two of these sophons have already been laboriously manufactured and sent to Earth, where they have the power to cause hallucinations, spy on any location, transmit the information gathered to Trisolaris using quantum entanglement, and disrupt the operation of particle accelerators. The Trisolarans fear humanity will develop technology advanced enough to fight off the invasion by the time the fleet arrives, and have decided that disrupting the accelerators to give random results will paralyze Earth's technological advancement.
Once several sophons have arrived, they plan to fabricate visual miracles and other hallucinations on a massive scale to make humanity distrust its own scientists. The Trisolarans detect that humanity has made these discoveries via sophons and beam to the eyes of the PLA one final message, "You're bugs!", then cease all communications. Now in custody, Ye is allowed to visit the old Red Coast base, and reflects upon her past choices, noting that humanity from now on will never be the same. Shi Qiang finds Wang Miao and his colleagues in a depressed drinking binge, and sobers them up by driving them to his hometown village in Northeastern China. Shi reflects on how despite all the advances humanity has made with pesticides, the simple-minded locust still manages to survive and thrive. With renewed hope, Wang and Shi return to Beijing to help plan the war against the Trisolarans. Now old and weak, Ye Wenjie returns to the top of Radar Peak, once the location of the Red Coast SETI base of operations. As she watches the blood red sun set in the west, she remarks the sight as a "sunset for humanity".
Gundam creator says Disney movies are BORING & SAD!
The creator of Gundam says Disney animation is BORING and he's worried that Japanese anime will follow suit. Japan is doing well when it comes to entertainment with manga, anime, and their own movies, and Hollywood has taken notice. One Piece, The Boy and The Heron, and Godzilla Minus One are dominating American screens!
Mickey Mouse is Now in Public Domain.HORROR ENSUES...
Mickey Mouse entered the public domain on January 1, 2024 and studios have wasted NO time announcing off-brand Mickey Mouse and Steamboat Willie projects... most of them horror. But will Disney step in and sue them for trademark infringement? Probably...
Additional Context: Since "Steamboat Willie" entered the public domain in 2024, one notable project using the character is the slasher film "Mickey's Mouse Trap." This film, directed by Jamie Bailey and scripted by Simon Phillips, incorporates clips from "Steamboat Willie" into its narrative. The trailer, released right after "Steamboat Willie" entered the public domain, features a mouse mask-wearing killer in a storyline unrelated to Disney's productions. Disney, meanwhile, continues to protect its rights in modern versions of Mickey Mouse and emphasizes their ongoing role in Disney's storytelling and merchandise. "Mickey's Mouse Trap" explicitly states in its disclaimer that it is not affiliated with or endorsed by Disney and only uses the public domain version of Mickey Mouse from "Steamboat Willie."
MICKEY'S MOUSE TRAPOfficial Trailer
It's Alex's 21st Birthday, but she's stuck at the amusement arcade on a late shift so her friends decide to surprise her, but a masked killer dressed as Mickey Mouse decides to play a game of his own with them which she must survive.
Disney SJWs Want to PURGE George Lucas from Star Wars!
George Lucas is being targeted by extremist activists at Disney and in Hollywood using recently released files that do not implicate Lucas, but merely mention him.

This is an important report from one of my agents in the field - Cancel Culture is coming for George Lucas, and we have to be careful not to swallow their lies!
This Anime exposed a $28,000,000,000 Slave Operation
Anime is probably the only place where animators are pennies per hour while working in an industry valued at $25 Billion. Why? How? Who came up with this? And why does no one actually care? Originally meant to be a video on Attack on Titan's creator Hajime Isayama, the constant fracturing of the final seasons of Attack on Titan made me spiral deep into a rabbit hole that I couldn't imagine - stretching all the way back to the 1940s and revealing the century old struggle that some of anime's greatest minds known to history (Hayao Miyazaki, Satoshi Kon, Isao Takahata, and others) fought in to attempt to make anime a better place to work. These people failed, with catastrophic consequences. Miyazaki and Takahata went to go make Studio Ghibli in the fall out. And so, we look back. Why did they fail? How? Is there anything to do about it? And why in the world does no one affected by the problem actually care?
Witness the epic showdown between Anakin and Obi-wan in the style "The Clone Wars". After years of hard work and dedication, a small group of Star Wars fans have re-imagined this iconic scene.
'Hullabaloo' is an animated sci-fi adventure set in a fantastic Steampunk world created by veteran Disney animator, James Lopez.
Hullabaloo is the story of Veronica Daring, a brilliant young scientist who returns home from an elite finishing school to find her father--the eccentric inventor Jonathan Daring--missing without a trace!

There she discovers a strange girl named Jules, a fellow inventor who agrees to help Veronica in locating her missing father and discovering the secrets of his work.
Together, Veronica and Jules learn that Jonathan Daring has been kidnapped by a mysterious group of influential persons, who seek to use his latest invention for nefarious purposes. These villains are wealthy and influential and neither Veronica nor Jules can stop them openly. But determined to save her father and holding true to the family creed that technology should be used for the good of all, not the greed of some, Veronica assumes the secret identity of "Hullabaloo", a goggled crusader who uses wits and science to combat evil and oppose the nefarious conspiracy that has taken her father.
But the question remains: what are the villains up to? What do they plan to do with Jonathan Daring's mysterious new technology? And will Veronica and Jules be able to stop them in time?
