Really enjoying this antagonist in DB Super. Ditto Whis. Totally called
Super Saiyan God transformation cosmetic change. And while Goku and some of the other Saiyans still sound crazy odd, the other voices are really well done. Especially King Kai, even when his voice doesn't match his panicked behaviour.

Goku's voice is a bit jarring at first for sure but I now prefer it over the dub I grew up with.
The newest episode had some good moments,
Gohan not being uselss for a change and the magical girl transformations for the men of Universe 2 raised a smile.

I would like to do my yearly post in this topic to point out that a while back, someone on Reddit did the maths about some of the book physics in High School of the Dead and some of the big tiddie antics would have literally exploded the girls.

I quickly grew accustomed to it and even have a good reason why it kind of suits him. (Yeah, he's super strong but he's also somewhat an innocent and not some edgelord, so the voice is in keeping with his kindly nature. Or something.)

Yeah, the voice perfectly fits this more childlike version of Goku we have in Super. That brings up another issue with the series - in Z, Goku felt like he had grown up and was all about being the hero who saved the Earth and Universe. We hardly ever got to see his goofy side bar a few gags with King Kai and Chi-Chi as there was always some world-ending threat looming. Cut to Super and Goku is back to his original self but in his adult body and I really don't know how well the dubbed voice will fit this version of the character.

I can't wait for this arc to not play out to completion before the next hiatus.
It's either going to be the happiest moment in the series or the worst. There is no middle ground. And I'm pretty sure it's going to be bad because Guts has been too happy lately.

Yeah, I bet another haitus hits after 4 or 5 chapters. We're on the verge of
Casca becoming her old self, but as this is Berserk I'm half expecting her to reject Guts or be too traumatised for anything.I can only hope we get to see Guts slowly and methodically kill Griffith some day.

Nen is right up there with Stands for most well thought out and interesting abilities. The most recent arcs have had some of the best nen battles in years.
I say this every week, but Dr. Stone is such a great read. Perfect balance of humour and drama - it's already hitting the top rankings of Jump and when it gets an anime announced it is going to be huge.

Also, Last Jedi poster by BnHA's Horikoshi.

Oh shi- Kurapika

(He's fighting
muscles dude from Phantom Troupe.)
That poster looks odd. Some characters (namely Empire lot and Rey) look fine, everyone else (including the logo) looks misshapen.
