Last completed anime
"Goblin Slayer"
A Silver rank adventure with an obsession for killing Goblins. "Goblin Slayer" is a master at his class and does the dirty job that no other Adventure likes to do. Cutting them into pieces, Crushing them flat, Stabbing them to death, burning them alive, drown them in the rivers, blowing them up with explosions, even using poisons, etc... There is no practical method to killing Goblins that "Goblin Slayer" hasn't tried before.
"Ode to Panty Fanservice in Anime"
This section is dedicated to "Agent AIka" and "Najica Blitz Tactics". Because Panty Fanservice and Anime go hand in hand. Anime is one of the only mediums that exists that can actually articulate and execute such thing in such a sagacious way depicted in action sequences. Also no other medium can make action look so sexy the way Anime can.

It's a new day so it's time to get resurrected.
Saint Young Men, should be an appropriate anime for the holiday.
Take care.
Nice to meet you (＾▽＾)
Hope you're doing good, happy holidays!

Why the Dying DVD Business Could Be Headed for a Resurrection
Let me quote the THR article:
When Netflix launched its streaming business, you could find everything you wanted, from every era of film and TV, available at all times. Everyone else followed that strategy — but now things are changing again.
Warner Bros. Discovery last year began a content purge of its streaming service HBO Max (now just Max), removing thousands of hours of programming. Disney+, Hulu and Paramount+ followed suit, canceling shows and culling old titles. As the cost of content will continue to rise in a post-strike world, even Netflix or Amazon might be tempted to remove titles to save a few bucks.
That strategy shift, as jarring as it is to some creators and consumers, reinforces the value of physical media. It’s a similar state of play with digital downloads, which you might “buy” from Amazon or iTunes, but can be removed from your library at any time. Studios could pull Westworld and Good Burger from Max — but not from your bookshelf.
Also, I found this article from CNBC from May of this year:
Streaming services are removing tons of movies and shows — it’s not personal, it’s strictly business
Again, I'll quote the CNBC article:
The studio’s removal of movies and TV shows began last summer, initially with titles such as the “Sesame Street” spinoff “The Not-Too-Late Show with Elmo” and teen drama “Generation.”
But in the ensuing months, more and more original HBO and Max content was removed. Most notably, the sci-fi dramas “Westworld” and “Raised By Wolves” disappeared.
“In my opinion, it discourages subscribers from checking out future original content,” said Matt Cartelli, 33, from New York state’s Hudson Valley. “Streaming used to be seen as a safe haven for consumers who were sick and tired of seeing shows canceled on traditional TV. Now streamers are following suit by canceling their own underperformers.”
Streaming services are being strategic about what sticks around and what leaves their platforms. Major hits such as Max’s “Peacemaker” or Disney’s “The Mandalorian” are unlikely to be pulled from their respective apps.
Meanwhile, underperforming shows and films could be on the chopping block.
And these titles aren’t lost forever.
“My main takeaway is that nothing is guaranteed to remain on streaming forever. You are paying for a convenient way to watch content, but it is not a replacement for buying a movie or TV show on home video,” Cartelli said.
So yes, look like your assessment about physical media is correct, and I sort of predicted this per our conversation. If more and more 1st party "original" contents are being removed from streaming and they don't have physical media release, it'll get physical media content release in the near future at some point.
So we could see blu-rays/DVDs/physical media sales rise again to pre-streaming era level if more people are becoming aware of their shows on streaming including 1st party and 3rd party original exclusives are being disappeared from streaming sites, they'll seek the physical media of that show if it get removed from streaming.
So the future looks bright for physical media.
What I can tell you is that: Because of the prices of streaming subscription and the removal of streaming provider's "original" and exclusive contents being removed from their platform, it's going to make a lot of streaming lover to probably seek out physical media because of that.
And I wrote about this on ANN. I assume you witnessed the death of Netflix's DVD/physical media delivery.
Another bad news is that streaming subscription prices are increasing:
Another problem and bad new for streaming is well: more "original" films and TV series/miniseries are getting removed from streaming platform. For example:
You know this film:
I assumed this film was a 1st party content, but now for the UK, it's getting remove next month (again, only in the UK, USA/North America is not effected). This film has not seen a Blu-ray/physical media release as of now, and I don't know which streaming provider will pick up this movie in the UK. But this is not good given that it's a first party content.
Also 3 of Netflix's international original will also be leaving Netflix worldwide this month. These don't even have physical media release at all, and we don't know which streaming provider may take over. If no other streaming provider are picking these up, then that's going to leave niche fan that are watching these shows I mentioned left without any mean to watch them.
So my hope and also your hope is that physical media could make a comeback giving these revelation I mentioned above.
Nice to meet you Goblin Slayer :)
You are certainly a weird one. Don't tell me live-action non-English/foreign language TV shows or films don't appeal to you? I mean don't you watch K-dramas, or Taiwanese dramas? Don't you even watch any of the live-action adaptation of anime/manga like Boys over Flowers (the Korean version), or the live action Kimi No Todoke J-drama (that is on Netflix).
Is this why you have limited experience with streaming compare to my experience with streaming?
I don't know what kind of experience you have with streaming, but you have to know or been aware that several "original" contents on streaming sites like Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max, etc... have been removing their original contents from their platform, and many of them haven't seen a home video/physical media release after they got removed from those platform.
I mean are you not watching any shows (not focusing on anime) on streaming sites at all? Isn't there any show on streaming that make you want to search for a physical home video release at all?
So we have to wait 30 years for the Batgirl film to get a home video release, is that what you're saying? I don't think that's going to make a lot of people happy, and the same can be said for the director, and the filmmaking crew that put a lot of work into making that film.
But then again, Richard Donner's Superman 2 didn't get release until 2006 (some 26 years after the original theatrical release).
May I ask what happen if the unreleased Batgirl film will never see the light of day, and will never get home video release, how would you react to that?
