🛑ALERTA SPOILERS 🎮 Rejugando Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 – Un indie francés que desafía al tiempo, al arte y a la muerte 🎨 En este especial de Rejugando, nos adentramos en uno de los juegos más fascinantes del año: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, un RPG táctico y narrativo que mezcla lo mejor del arte clásico, la filosofía existencialista y la acción a ritmo de música orquestal inolvidable. Desde su desarrollo casi artesanal —liderado por un antiguo trabajador de Ubisoft que reclutó equipo por Reddit y SoundCloud— hasta su potente guion nacido del dolor y la inspiración familiar, todo en Expedition 33 rezuma amor por el videojuego como medio. 🖌️ Arte que cobra vida Ambientado en un mundo pictórico roto por un cataclismo, Expedition 33 nos pone al frente de una expedición condenada, enfrentada a un destino sellado por la misteriosa Peintresse. Con influencias visuales de Ghibli, Final Fantasy, Alice in Wonderland y hasta Dark Souls, el juego nos habla de la muerte, el sacrificio y la memoria… todo envuelto en una atmósfera francesa melancólica e inolvidable. 🎼 Una banda sonora legendaria Compuesta por el hasta entonces desconocido Lorien Testard —descubierto por sus piezas de guitarra en SoundCloud durante el confinamiento—, la música del juego es otro protagonista más. Más de 150 temas que pasan del rock progresivo al piano íntimo o al acordeón clásico francés, evocando desde Persona 5 hasta Joe Hisaishi de Studio Ghibli. La vocalista Alice, también amateur, fue reclutada durante la pandemia y ha terminado formando parte de un fenómeno mundial. ⚔️ Combate que premia la maestría El sistema de batalla recuerda a Devil May Cry, Slay the Spire y Final Fantasy, premiando el buen timing y la estrategia en el uso de cartas, evasión y puntos de acción. Cada personaje tiene un estilo único, desde el científico Gustave hasta Monoko —sí, un perro con rol jugable—, pasando por la protagonista Maëlle, cuya identidad es uno de los giros más potentes del juego. 📜 Narrativa que te rompe en dos Escrito por Jennifer Svedberg-Yen, quien empezó como actriz de doblaje ocasional y terminó siendo jefa narrativa, el guion está lleno de giros, simbolismo y carga emocional. Referencias a Final Fantasy X, Albert Camus, La Horde du Contrevent y una reflexión constante sobre el arte, la vida y la muerte. El juego no tiene miedo de hablar de trauma, pérdida y renuncia, y lo hace con una honestidad brutal. 🧠 Universo profundo y rejugable Con las expediciones previas que dejaron su huella, gremios artísticos, pintores divinos y personajes con nombre y trasfondo propios, el mundo de Clair Obscur está construido con una atención al detalle impresionante. Es un juego que, sin necesitar 90 horas de duración, deja una marca profunda y duradera, tanto por lo que cuenta como por cómo lo cuenta. 🖼️ Un homenaje al videojuego y al jugador Este título es una carta de amor al medio: desde sus referencias a FFVII, Bayonetta o Journey, hasta detalles como una partida de Triple Triad entre NPCs. Expedition 33 es un juego hecho por jugadores, para jugadores, y se nota en cada pincelada. Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals

I Christian Joel Ramos aka "The Podcast Mercenary" review Hayao Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli's Castle in the Sky from 1986.

This and all episodes at: https://aiandyou.net/ . We get at this AI thing from many different angles: it changes us in so many ways that we're not going to understand it through just a technical discussion. So today we look at what it means to be human in the AI age through the eyes of Dagan Shani, an independent filmmaker who has focused on the risks associated with AI through movies that evoke our emotions. His documentary Don't Look Up - The Documentary: The Case for AI as an Existential Threat was described by Max Tegmark as “the most important film of the year.” Shani's short documentary from 2024, Moloch - AI and the Deadly Force Driving Us to the Brink, and his latest film, Obsolete - Human Work in the Age of AI, both raise pressing questions about the rapid advancement of AI and its far-reaching implications. In part 2, we talk about Universal Basic Income, more about Moloch, and the Studio Ghibli incident and the future of AI-generated visual media.  All this plus our usual look at today's AI headlines.

Hola Gerardo aquí en otro episodio de Simplemente Yo; La selección de esta semana es Grave of the Fireflies, es una película bélica de animación japonesa de 1988, escrita y dirigida por Isao Takahata y producida por Studio Ghibli. Está basada en el relato semiautobiográfico de 1967 de Akiyuki Nosaka.   Inicialmente considerada inadaptable, Grave of the Fireflies se basa en la novela de Nosaka, un homenaje a su hermana fallecida en tiempos de guerra. El director Takahata se enfrentó a dificultades técnicas y optó por paletas de colores más suaves para representar los desolados paisajes de la película. A pesar de su combinación con Totoro para un tono más ligero, el realismo y la profundidad emocional de la pelicula la distinguen. La crítica, incluyendo a Roger Ebert, la elogió como una profunda película antibélica. La innovadora combinación de diálogos y banda sonora crea una experiencia inmersiva, diseñada para evocar una profunda resonancia emocional y promover un mensaje de paz.   Plot: Un niño y su hermana pequeña luchan por sobrevivir en Japón durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Espero que lo disfruten ;) Información adicional del podcast: Enlace del website official de Filmic Notion Podcast: https://filmicnotionpod.com/ Enlace a nuestra página de Letterboxd: https://boxd.it/446nl  

Quanto mais a gente convive com as diferentes modalides de inteligência artificial, mais se dá conta do impacto delas no mundo. Isso vale para o ganho de eficiência e produtividade que muita gente alcança no dia a dia — eu, inclusive, ao fazer roteiros e reportagens —, mas não vale apenas para as coisas boas surgidas da tecnologia. Um dos debates mais relevantes relcionados aos prejuízos da IA ao planeta gira em torno do consumo de água e energia. Você deve ter ouvido falar a respeito, principalmente depois da trend do Studio Ghibili, há alguns meses. Foi ali que muita gente começou a questionar se vale a pena brincar de criar versões de si mesmo e, nesse processo, gastar água e energia.Mas será que é isso que acontece? Por quê?

In dieser Episode des Brettspiel News Talk reisen wir gemeinsam mit unserem Gast Marc, dem Geschäftsführer von Treecer, tief in die Welt von "Rewild South America". Dies ist ein Spiel, das nicht nur die Spieler in die ökologischen Herausforderungen der Natur einführt, sondern auch ein starkes Bewusstsein für Biodiversität fördert. Marc gibt uns einen tiefen Einblick in die Entwicklung des Spiels, das bereits erfolgreich über Kickstarter finanziert wurde und sich durch seine herausragende Gestaltung und durchdachte Spielmechanik auszeichnet. Das Spiel dreht sich darum, vom Menschen verwüstete Landschaften wiederherzustellen. Die Spieler rekultivieren verschiedene Biome, wie Regenwälder und Grasland, und versuchen, tierische Bewohner in Form von Karten anzulocken. Marc beschreibt, wie die Spieler dabei strategisch vorgehen müssen, um die besten Synergien zwischen Tieren und Pflanzen zu schaffen, wobei jeder Zug zu einem spannenden Denkspiel wird, in dem es darum geht, Ressourcen effizient zu nutzen und Punkte zu sammeln. In einem ausführlichen Dialog mit den Brettspiel-News-Redakteuren Thomas, Justin und Johanna diskutieren wir die zahlreichen Mechaniken und Strategien, die "Rewild South America" auszeichnen. Die Gäste teilen ihre Erlebnisse und Eindrücke aus ersten Partien, wobei sie den taktischen Charakter des Spiels und die vielen Entscheidungsfaktoren hervorheben. Marc erläutert, wie wichtig es beim Spiel ist, flexibel auf die Gegebenheiten auf dem Tisch zu reagieren und sich nicht zu sehr auf eine fixe Strategie zu verlassen. Ein weiterer spannender Punkt ist die besondere Liebe zum Detail in der Artwork-Gestaltung, die stark an Studio Ghibli erinnert. Marc erklärt, dass die visuellen Elemente des Spiels nicht nur ästhetisch ansprechend sind, sondern auch dazu dienen, das Thema des Spiels zu unterstreichen und das Engagement für den Naturschutz zu fördern. Diese kreative Herangehensweise bringt nicht nur die Schönheit der Natur zur Geltung, sondern vermittelt auch die tiefere Botschaft hinter der Spielerfahrung. Wir erfahren auch, wie Marc und sein Team an die Balance der Karten herangegangen sind, um eine faire und unterhaltsame Spielerfahrung zu gewährleisten. Trotz aller mathematischen Berechnungen und Playtests bleibt jedes Spiel einzigartig und nimmt durch die Interaktion der Spieler immer wieder neue Wendungen an. Marc gewährleistet, dass auch für weniger erfahrene Spieler genügend Zugang zum Gameplay vorhanden ist und jeder seine Freude am Spiel finden kann. Abschließend wird ein Ausblick auf zukünftige Projekte gegeben, einschließlich geplanter Erweiterungen und der Möglichkeit, "Rewild South America" im Einzelhandel zu erwerben. Der Late-Pledge für die Kickstarter-Kampagne bleibt zudem offen, was den Interessierten ermöglicht, sich noch anzuschließen. In dieser Episode wird klar, dass "Rewild South America" nicht nur ein Spiel, sondern auch eine Einladung ist, die Wunder der Natur neu zu entdecken und sich aktiv mit den Themen Umwelt und Nachhaltigkeit auseinanderzusetzen.Hier geht es zur Kampagnen-SeiteDiscord Link des Verlags: https://discord.com/invite/rzyDM82PKgTabletop-Simulator auf Steam: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3442464092Euer FeedbackIhr habt Feedback zu dem Podcast und Themen- oder Gastwünsche?

Read transcriptBelieve it or not, ninja enthusiasts, this week on Play Comics we're kunai-diving into the pixelated shinobi wasteland that is Naruto: Ninja Council for the Game Boy Advance – because apparently someone at Tomy thought the best way to honor everyone's favorite orange-clad ramen addict was to trap him in a handheld prison with combat mechanics more frustrating than trying to explain the Chunin Exams to your grandmother. Released in 2003, this side-scrolling “adventure” promised to let players master the art of ninjutsu while battling through iconic locations from the Hidden Leaf Village, but what it actually delivered was a gaming experience so repetitive that even Naruto's shadow clone jutsu would get bored of itself. Joining us for this digital journey through the Land of Mediocre Adaptations is Luke Herr from D'ohMance Dawn – a man who's witnessed more anime-to-game train wrecks than a rejected Akatsuki recruitment video. Together, we'll explore how this GBA “masterpiece” managed to spawn not one, not two, but THREE sequels despite having the gameplay depth of a puddle in the desert and graphics that make early Dragon Ball Z filler episodes look like Studio Ghibli productions. So grab your headband and prepare for an episode that's more entertaining than actually grinding through the same three enemy types for hours on end – which, let's face it, isn't exactly setting the bar at Hokage level. Will this portable ninja adventure redeem itself through sheer nostalgic chakra, or will it vanish faster than Sasuke after a family reunion? Tune in to discover if this manga adaptation belongs in the Hall of Fame… or should be sealed away forever like the Nine-Tailed Fox! Learn such things as: Is it dangerous to have pretty eyes? Is all manga and anime just a giant metaphor for the horrible nature of man? Does a game being fun make it a good intro to the franchise? And so much more! You can find Luke over on D'OhMance Dawn, Exiled, Multiversal Q, and RPG Pals Club. Or catch him on BlueSky @koltreg or his Patreon, found under Luke Herr.

Writer Gabby Hutchinson-Crouch (Horrible Histories, Cursed Under London, Darkwood) talks about Hayao Miyazaki's 2004 beautiful animated adaptation of Diana Wynne Jones' Howl's Moving Castle, and how the Studio Ghibli masterpiece subverts fairytale tropes and flips hackneyed gender roles, while remembering to include sufficient wisecracking fireplaces and hot emo wizards. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Here is another of Studio Ghibli's heartbreaking masterpieces about chasing your dreams, building beautiful planes, and emotionally wrecking your audience. Is it a love story? A war story? An existential crisis with really good animation? Yes. All of the above. We cry, we dream, we build planes, and question whether following your passion is worth it if it ends in emotional devastation and highly aesthetic aircraft. Spoiler: It is. Kind of. Maybe?Our Links:Ian WolffeSend us a text

¡Bienvenidos a Multianime Podcast Ep 3x22! En este episodio, Alex y Andy continúan la conversación sobre uno de los temas más candentes: la Inteligencia Artificial en la Industria del Anime (Parte 2).Exploramos las controversias que la IA ha generado, desde acusaciones falsas a artistas hasta el preocupante uso de voces clonadas de actores de doblaje sin permiso. Analizamos las posturas de estudios como Crunchyroll y Cover Corp (Hololive), que apuestan por el talento humano, frente a otros que experimentan con la IA para eficiencia.También abordamos las recientes y duras acciones legales contra la piratería, incluyendo sitios de spoilers y plataformas de distribución ilegal, y el debate ético sobre el consumo de contenido pirata.Uno de los puntos más críticos es el impacto de la IA en el empleo creativo, especialmente para los nuevos talentos que podrían perder los puestos de entrada a la industria si las tareas básicas se automatizan. ¿Cómo afectará esto la formación de futuros animadores y artistas?Discutimos la urgencia de la regulación en Japón y comparamos su enfoque con la inversión de Corea del Sur y los modelos de generación de anime con IA de China (como Anisora de Bilibili). ¿Estamos ante un futuro de anime artesanal o uno masificado por algoritmos?Revivimos la polémica del falso comunicado de Studio Ghibli y el debate sobre la replicación de estilos artísticos con IA.Además, recapitulamos brevemente la cobertura de la CCXP y compartimos recomendaciones de streaming: Mikey 17 (HBO Max), Your Friends & Neighbors (Apple TV) y El Eternauta (Netflix).¿Cuál es tu postura sobre la IA en el anime? ¿Qué tipo de anime quieres apoyar y preservar? ¡Déjanos tus comentarios!

Though not technically a Miyazaki film, the gang believes that 2010's Arrietty belongs in his pantheon of works with Studio Ghibli nestled in between Ponyo and The Wind Rises, with thematic and artistic similarities to Miyazaki's more carefree films like My Neighbor Totoro. It's a film that leans heavily on Ghibli's masterful work with scenery, colors, and the whimsy of Arrietty's mini-world, but falters somewhat without a strong main (human) character in Shō (or Shawn) or a particularly strong emotional throughline. If you're like Marcus and enjoy a movie paced like a relaxed afternoon walk, then look no further than this magical Secret World. Content warning: SPOILERS, strong language.

Feature: Bleak Week returns for Year 4, we talk to programmers behind the festival This year marks the 4th year of the American Cinematheque’s Bleak Week: Cinema of Despair, a weeklong festival dedicated to screening films with dark and bleak themes. In this year’s lineup, you’ll find screenings of Michael Haneke’s English adaptation of Funny Games, the Soviet anti-war film Come and See, and Studio Ghibli co-founder Isao Takahata’s Grave of the Fireflies. You’ll also find that the Year 4 lineup includes introductions/Q&As with the likes of Bill Hader, Elliot Gould, and Brady Corbet. Outside of the usual festival screenings here in Los Angeles, the American Cinematheque has partnered with other arthouse theaters across the country, and even The Prince Charles Cinema in London. Joining us to discuss this year’s iteration of the festival is Chris LeMaire, lead programmer on the American Cinematheque’s Bleak Week, and Grant Moninger, American Cinematheque’s Artistic Director. We also have our critics, Charles Solomon, Claudia Puig and Peter Rainer, commenting on what about the festival has allowed it to garner interest. Bleak Week runs from June 1-7.
