WELCOME TO THE VOID
We're All Tiny Motes In A Hostile Void
This post contains spoilers for Alien Headbutt Chapter 6, currently available for U.S. readers from VIZ Media One of the things I’ve grown to love across this first six chapters of Alien Headbutt is how down to earth it is. The concept is simple yet over-the-top, and the characters are proving to be surprisingly relatable. Ouga is just a guy who wants to wrestle everything, even massive aliens. Tatsumi has his own skillset, which we get to see in Chapter 6, “The Hunter & The Wrestler.” And Haruya’s just an adorable kid experiencing the most effed-uppinest existence right now. Chapter 5 leaves us in front of the bathhouse where Ouga’s sister works. Held prisoner by a bunch of pterodactyl-looking, flying aliens, prospects don’t look good. Figuring out how to get to the survivors poses a challenge even the world’s most outrageous wrestler can’t solve at first. Aliens on the ground are one thing. Flying E.T.s are something else entirely. Fortunately, Ouga’s not the only one with valuable skills.
The following contains spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3, Episode 10, currently streaming on Crunchyroll. There’s no denying Jujutsu Kaisen has been one heavy mood after another since Shibuya. Yuji’s guilt and Megumi’s determination to save his sister from the Culling Game barely begin to scratch the surface. With every episode promising more devastation to come, the series as a whole can get a bit depressing. Fortunately, Akutami-sensei does comic relief really well. With Season 3 fast approaching the end of its first cour, the second major battle is about to go down. Now that Itadori and Higuruma have come to terms and added a new rule to the Culling Game, it’s Fushiguro’s turn to lay the smackdown on Reggie Star. Fortunately, he won’t have to face Reggie’s ragtag gang of sorcerers alone for long.
This post contains spoilers for Alien Headbutt Chapters 1-5, currently available for U.S. readers from VIZ Media Mid-February brought a lovely Valentine into my VIZ app. With the end of Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo approaching, I was already looking for something new to read. Like a shot from Cupid’s bow, Inui Akira’s Alien Headbutt showed up in my recommendations, and I instantly fell in love. The words Aliens + Professional Wrestler grabbed my attention immediately. Yeah, I know, I said I was sick of aliens, but this is different. First and foremost, I grew up watching WWF (yeah, before it was E,) and later, WCW. While other kids my age were idolizing football and basketball players, I was sitting ringside from my living room cheering on entities like Bret the Hitman Hart and The Ultimate Warrior. Yes, I am “that” old. Long story short, I wanted to see a pro wrestler headbutt the snot out of aliens. I just didn’t know that was what I wanted. Now, Alien Headbutt is the ultimate answer to a prayer I didn’t know I was even uttering. I wrote about it over on CBR back in February, but with Modulo now complete, I’m going to start reviewing it here regularly.
This post contains spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Chapter 25, currently available for U.S. readers from VIZ Media I feel like I’m super far behind on my Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo review. It’s the final chapter, and even though it just dropped yesterday, it feels like it’s been a week. Leaks from last week spoiled all kinds of things. (Un)Fortunately, I had the flu again. So, I missed the majority of the spoilers while snuggling my Gojo Meow plushy and napping through Tokyo Revengers for like three days straight. I will be honest. The one spoiler that did reach me had me a little scared. I was worried I wouldn’t get even half as much closure as I wanted. I will say on this before starting: I egotistically feel like Akutami Sensei heard some of my prayers and then answered them. So… Sensei, hontōni arigatōgozaimashita. Now, let’s take a look at the 25th and final chapter of Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo.
The following contains spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3, Episode 9, which is currently streaming on Crunchyroll. I can’t believe we’re so close to the end of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3, Cour 1 already. I got hit with a totally different (and more brutal) strain of flu last Tuesday. Now, I am incredibly far behind right now. I’m probably going to keep this one short, saving the rest of my energy to talk about the final chapter of JJK Modulo. Then again, do I even know the meaning of the word short? Probably not. With only three episodes left, we still don’t have a clear answer on when we can expect Cour 2 episodes to begin airing. Some speculate the Summer 2026 Anime Season, while others think it may not come until Fall 2026. Either way, it will feel like an eternity. JJK Episode 56, “Tokyo Colony No.1 Part 3,” was one epic high. An in-depth look at Higuruma Hiromi’s Domain Expansion and Cursed Technique quickly confirms his status as a jujutsu phenom. With Yuji Itadori about to face the music, what punishment will Judgeman decree if he’s found guilty? The kind of punishment that calls for an epic showdown that gives us a clear look at just how much Yuji’s grown since Shibuya.
