After a short break, Pixel x Pixel is back in action, with Anne kicking things off with some major life news, and we’re not talking about her first VR experience!

Then, there’s a surprising amount of news for this quiet time of year, including a shock Nendoroid announcement, and a surprise BL localization! (which was confirmed is being localized by JAST BLUE right after we recorded – sorry about that!) Stay tuned to the end for the special debut of Anne Gets Steamed (at the Game Award nominees).

37:00 – Notable News: Bryan Fuller working on Friday the 13th prequel series, Amnesia: Memories Nendoroids, Sorcerer’s Choice: Angel or Demon? BL game localization, Maid for Loving You romance visual novel released, 2022 Game Awards nominees

Pixel x Pixel Episode 97

9 / 18 / 229 / 18 / 22

A new episode of Pixel x Pixel is here, and not a minute too soon! We recorded before the excitement of TGS kicked off and during the unfortunate heat dome that had Marcus and other Californians watching their electricity use, but that doesn’t mean we didn’t bring our usual cheer! Marcus talks about his new Checking the Score article on the Cult of the Lamb soundtrack, and Anne talks about the nitty gritty of freelance localization. Then, it’s time for not one, but two new movies, and some exciting otome game and shojo manga-related announcements!

Please note that this episode was recorded over a week before it was posted, so some of our discussions may be a little out of date.

15:00 – Media Minutes: Bodies, Bodies, Bodies, Silent Hill 2 Enhanced Edition, Cloverfield, DragonBall Super: Super Hero
36:00 – Notable News: Rose of Versailles movie announced, Otomate Parade 2022 announcements, GrimGrimoire OnceMore English version coming 2023, Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak PSA
