Let's hope that the reunion will, indeed, be coming for those boys. And along with that, we have the news of BOCCHI THE SECOND SEASON happening, Masaaki Yuasa starting up a new studio, an hour's worth of book announcements from several publishers (even from Tokyopop, but just briefly), Fate/stay night airing on a... *curious* cable TV channel, some ripples in the Gundam pipeline, the recent AnimEigo "town hall" announcements, and a whole lot of dumb shenanigans to help distract all of you from the real world at large.

NOTE: parts of the audio from the first 34 minutes of this episode are missing due to technical difficulties. As 2024 comes to a close, we have one last show as all of the stars seemed to align just right with the added benefit of a very hefty gift bestowed to all of us from Bloomberg - a not-so-lovely exposé on Crunchyroll and their corporate culture that we spent 45 minutes dissecting and lambasting. Quite the added extra for a show that just supposed to be about Jump Festa, but yes, the major happenings from Jump Festa are here as well, from the new changes to One Piece to the next stretch of My Hero Academia and even some not-so-confirmed promises from the ever-so-slow and procrastinatory overlords at MAPPA. There's also some talk about some upcoming new seasons for some fan favorites and one more book roundup for the year, but we all know why you're here - it's for the Crunchyroll talk. Again, it's quite a doozy, and a hell of a doozy to close the year out on.

Solo Leveling, also alternatively translated as Only I Level Up (Korean: 나 혼자만 레벨업; RR: Na Honjaman Rebeleop), is a South Korean web novel written by Chugong. It was serialized in Kakao's digital comic and fiction platform KakaoPage beginning on July 25, 2016, and was later published by D&C Media under their Papyrus label since November 4, 2016. The novel has been licensed in English by Yen Press.[1] A webtoon adaptation of Solo Leveling was first serialized in KakaoPage on March 4, 2018; it was illustrated by Jang Sung-rak (Dubu). The webtoon's first season concluded on March 19, 2020, and its second season was released from August 2020 to December 2021. Its individual chapters have been collected and published by D&C Media in nine volumes as of August 2023.[2] The webtoon has been licensed in English by Yen Press.[3] An anime television series adaptation produced by A-1 Pictures aired from January to March 2024. A second season, entitled Arise from the Shadow, has been announced. A Korean drama adaptation is in development and spin-off webtoon Solo Leveling: Ragnarok is set to premiere in 2024.[4] A role-playing video game titled Solo Leveling: Arise has been in development by Netmarble.[5] 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 unique ability to level up in strength. This is something no other hunter is able to do, as a hunter's abilities are set once they awaken. 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. Plot[edit]
