Year 1 Issue 13

Arcadia Dragnet, Year 1, Issue 13

  March 25 - 31, 2020


Welcome back to Arcadia Dragnet, everyone, hope all is well. Canada is now in its third week of enforced social distancing, I've had more free time than my brain can handle and honestly I'm starting to feel a little worn out! Fortunately this has afforded me a lot of time to check out the anime in my backlog- Birdy the Mighty Decode, Mahoutsukai Tai, Wolf's Rain, Mighty Space Miners, Hells, and Sirius no Densetsu are among the titles I completed.

No, there will not be any April Fools shenanigans this year, I'm too tired to come up with anything funny.

Contemporary Anime- Unlicensed


As the winter season came to an end, Mezashite and Hoshi-no-Yume FS completed their work on Aikatsu on Parade and Beyblade Burst GT respectively. The anon fansubs for Dorohedoro, with the release of episode 12, are also now complete. These groups have kept up diligently with weekly releases for many months, and while it's always sort of sad to see a project come to an end, it'll be very exciting to see what these teams do next!
