Moonrise First Impressions

Written by Ross Locksley on 11 Apr 2025 With a lot of anime dropping onto streaming platforms right now, it's easy to let titles slip by - one I had forgotten I was looking forward to was Studio Wit's adaptation of Tow Ubukata's Moonrise novel, which has been dropped in its entirety onto Netflix. Our first impressions pieces are usually a guide as to how much a first episode grabs you, but I have to admit I binged two episodes on this occasion, such was the quality of episode one.

Don't let the name fool you, there's no figure to build in the package, Juri comes complete with her neo pipe and limbs attached. It's good to see Street Fighter's resident bad-girl getting more merchandise lately, and between this, the Pop Up Parade and upcoming SH Figuarts action figure, it's a good year to be a Juri fan. This 1/7 scale figure sees the unhinged brawler wrapped around a dislodged neon pole, with an anticipatory grin accompanying a predatory stare.
Gundam Gquuuuuux lands on Amazon

If you're tuning in to Gundam Gquuuuuux on Amazon Prime, you might be a little confused, especially if you were fortunate enough to see the Beginnings film in cinemas.
