This Week: Emory and Gary break down the VShojo collapse – the charity allegations, the talent exodus (Kson, Projekt Melody, Zentreya, Geega, Kuro Kurenai, Michi Mochievee, AmaLee), and what it means for VTubing. Then, we hit the anime trenches: Emory’s updates on To Be Hero X, Silent Love, My Dress-Up Darling S2, Dandadan, Gachiakuta, and One Piece. Finally, Gary reviews Boruto Chapters 41-50 – and explains why the manga’s finally earning its hype.
