ININ Games announced on Thursday that the R-Type Dimensions III side-scrolling shooter game will launch digitally on May 19.

ININ stated that every “stage, boss, and projectile pattern has been rebuilt with high-end 3D graphics, enhanced animations, and richly detailed environments, whilst preserving the instantly recognizable atmosphere that defined R-Type’s identity.” ININ Games has also rebuilt the original music and sound effects. Players can “switch seamlessly between the original and the new R-Type III at any time.”
The game’s special edition includes the full game, an artbook, and a new soundtrack. The collector’s edition will include everything from the special edition plus a selection of bonus items including a figurine.

WWWave Corporation‘s anime streaming platform OceanVeil announced on Monday that the English dub of the television anime of Okumaro‘s Now That I Can Control Reality With A Mouse Cursor, I’m Gonna Click Away On The Girls!

OceanVeil describes Now That I Can Control Reality With A Mouse Cursor, I’m Gonna Click Away On The Girls! anime’s story:
Takumi, an ordinary otaku, is sitting in IT class when he notices something impossible: his computer mouse cursor has sprung right out of the screen and into the real world! Panicked, he asks his bossy childhood friend Mone if she can see it, but she just brushes him off. Realizing the cursor is completely invisible to others and under his control, Takumi decides to test it out by slipping it between the gaps in Mone’s clothes and clicking away!
As Mone writhes from the unfamiliar sensation, Takumi uncovers a floating real-life context menu featuring incredible controls like “Cut”, “Paste”, “Double Sensitivity Mode”, and even “The Real Deal” (if he can earn enough Click Points!). But keeping his new powers a secret isn’t easy. Between accidental wardrobe malfunctions caused by ‘Cut’, mysterious classmates pursuing him, and art club presidents who might actually see the cursor, Takumi’s clicking spree is about to set off a wild, slapstick chain reaction!
Kazuya Nakamura is the anime’s planning and executive producer, Reiga Goto is the producer, Studio Hōkiboshi is producing the anime, and Suiseisha is credited for production. Makoto Sokuza is the director, Eeyo Kurosaki is overseeing the series scripts, Minakawa Akapiv is the character designer, and Harimasu is the chief animation director.

Titan Manga revealed on Tuesday that it will ship its English 3-in-1 omnibus edition of Eiji Hashimoto and Shinya Umemura‘s Chiruran: Shinsengumi Requiem (Chiruran: Shinsengumi Chinkon-ka) manga on January 26, 2027. The company also unveiled the cover (pictured right):
The company describes the story:
Before he became the legendary Vice Commander of the feared Shinsengumi, Hijikata Toshizou was a reckless young swordsman determined to carve out his place in a nation on the brink of collapse. As political unrest tears Japan apart and violence erupts in the streets of Kyoto, Toshizou and his comrades will forge The Shinsen-gumi, the ruthless “Mibu Wolves”, a band of warriors sworn to restore order at any cost.
Hashimoto teased in January new content for the series, but did not clarify whether it was a new chapter or story for the manga.
Umemura provided the story, and Hashimoto illustrated the manga. The duo launched the series in the inaugural issue of Tokuma Shoten‘s Monthly Comic Zenon magazine in 2010. The manga began its final arc with the 32nd volume in January 2022, and ended in April 2023. Mangamo is also releasing the manga in English digitally under the title The Shinsen-gumi.
The manga inspired a stage play adaptation that ran in April 2017.
The manga’s live-action series adaptation aired on the TBS channel in spring as a special, and also streams on the U-NEXT service as a series.
Umemura and Hashimoto launched a comedy spinoff manga titled Chiruran Nibun no Ichi in Monthly Comic Zenon in May 2016. The spinoff manga received an anime series of shorts that premiered in January 2017. Crunchyroll streamed the series under the title Chiruran 1/2 as it aired.
