I opine about the good old days of WoW cinematics and the new Dragonflight trailer.

Koe no Katachi (A Silent Voice) [Anime and Manga]The manga is a deeply emotional experience, and it has a single panel with Shouko, one of the major characters, laying on a bed that I consider one of the most heart wrenching moments in a manga I’ve ever experienced. It’s a story about bullying, redemption, friendship, and hardship. It’s very heavy, as it revolves around a deaf girl who spend a part of her youth being bullied.
