(AfroGamers.com) In part one, we mainly focused on ineffective, incompetent authority in anime and manga. We didn’t even get into comics when it comes to bumbling government or being so bad at your job a disaster occurs. It’s worth noting that in American comics, there is a reason for why ...

(AfroGamers.com) We’ve got something of a first for AfroGamers—at least for me—in a recent film review! Early July 2025 saw the release of the anticipated James Gunn DC Universe debut: Superman. Going into the film’s release there was a lot of news and speculation about what to expect not just ...

(AfroGamers.com) You know, Crunchy Roll is great for watching, binging, and discovering anime. It’s even great for rediscovering stuff. It’s amazing how often Ronin Warriors/Samurai Warriors pop up on streaming platforms. In the 1990s, it was a kind of one those throwaway series for syndication despite being a fun, action-packed ...

(AfroGamers.com) Oh isekai, how I dig thee. However, there are times early into a series when I become angry for the protagonist. Sure, the writer would’ve written the antagonists as so insufferably d**kish and over the top with their oppression that it’s easy for you to hate them. The main ...

(AfroGamers.com) In decades of watching anime and reading comics/manga, there are certain tropes that pop up often that you notice. They might become tropes you really enjoy, some that annoy you but they’re a staple of what you enjoy—but they’re usually there. For instance, one trope I hate is the naming ...

(AfroGamers.com) I was a year late to Dead Island 2 and recently, it was made available on PlayStation Plus. It’s an open-world game with crafting and loot on PS Plus—of course I’m going to install and play it a bit. Who knows, I might just finish it! Dead Island 2 ...

(AfroGamers.com) Gearbox’s Borderlands is a franchise I missed out on when the games first dropped. I was probably busy playing Elder Scrolls IV or Fallout 3 at the time. It’s odd because this is definitely a franchise I would’ve enjoyed if I played it back then. The first time I ...

(AfroGamers.com) I’m not the biggest horror fan but I dig zombie films and comics. Video games—it depends. A legendary series like Resident Evil never really appealed to me—then again, I never gave it that strong of chance. It’s odd because I gave Dino Crisis a go, beat it and the ...

(AfroGamers.com) I’m not the biggest on exposition and characters getting a ton of TV or page time to explain their backstory but I do love lore. There are better ways to go into a character’s backstory and motivations than for everyone to stand around and let them cook. It’s a ...

(AfroGamers.com) As fall rolls in there are three things I tend to do. First, I might play Stardew Valley or a Story of Seasons game most of the season. Second, I dive into the Sonic the Hedgehog comics again. I don’t know what it is but I love these comics. ...

(AfroGamers.com) The worlds of Super Mario always make me wonder about how is anyone living and thriving here? It’s going to be a bit of a thing, so grab a snack and a drink. I’ve been playing Super Mario games since the late 1980s and when you’re a kid; new ...

(AfroGamers.com) I enjoy the Lord of the Rings films and they’re one of my favorites to rewatch. There is more to catch up as far as film and TV are concerned and I still must re-read the books, but I’ve always enjoyed the franchise. If there’s a LOTR game, I’m ...

(AfroGamers.com) In 6th grade, we had more computer-oriented classes and one of my favorites was this hybrid wood shop-computer science class we had. For the most part, you were graded on attendance and if you made anything in class: a keychain during leather working or something. Most students got on ...

(AfroGamers.com) Earlier this year, my brother and I were heavy into Outriders which had a lot of good stuff there. Two problems it had was a lack of consistent and engaging content and mediocre motion. Outriders simply wasn’t the most fluid game as far as movement. You have to be ...
