    Matcha do about nothing.

    As part of the reveal for the latest pokémon — which will debut in the upcoming Scarlet and Violet expansion next month — we have this charming little ghost story that makes tea surprisingly spooky.

    That’s a stretch.

    Netflix’s One Piece adaptation is dropping at the end of August, and a new behind-the-scenes featurette gives a pretty good look at some of the pirate action, most notably Luffy’s ability to stretch his body to absurd proportions — which has a whole different vibe in live-action.

    If you can pull yourself away from Baldur’s Gate 3,

    there’s plenty to do this weekend, including a diverse group of films in theaters: superhero flick Blue Beetle, horror story Birth/Rebirth, and sci-fi parable Landscape With Invisible Hand.

    Meanwhile, a number of notable games are now available on new platforms. Vampire Survivors is out on the Switch (with co-op!), Red Dead Redemption is on the PS4 and Switch, and the surreal adventure Kentucky Route Zero hit next-gen consoles.

    A night of chiptunes.

    Netflix just properly revealed its Scott Pilgrim anime, and if you happen to be in LA on November 17th, there’s going to be a concert featuring music from the show from chiptune rockstars Anamanaguchi. The band also did the soundtrack for the Scott Pilgrim game, and it absolutely ruled.

    Kentucky Route Zero hits even more platforms.

    The surreal adventure game is already available in a number of places, and today you can add two more to that list: the PS5 and Xbox Series X / S. For more on what makes KRZ so special, be sure to check out my review of the final act and interview with the developers at Cardboard Computer about its long, winding road to release.
