After a celebrated run at international film festivals, the anime movie adaptation of Hiroshi Sakurazaka’s All You Need is Kill is now available to buy digitally – and hopefully should land on streaming platforms soon. So how does this re-imagining of the light novel compare to the Hollywood adaptation – Edge of Tomorrow – and even its own manga adaptation? Honestly? It doesn’t. But it’s not because it’s bad – it’s a whole new take on the story. SUPPORT USPatreon: Patreon.com/KawaiiFiBuy us a Coffee: Ko-fi.com/kawaiifi NEWS ITEMSCrunchyroll Japan's Net Profit Drops 63%https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2026-05-19/crunchyroll-japan-net-profit-drops-63-percent-to-453-million-yen/.237531 Nanami Voice actor, Kenjiro Tsuda, sues TikTok account that profited from cloning his voice with AIhttps://fandomwire.com/kenjiro-tsuda-ai-lawsuit-against-tiktok-explained/ The Scooby Doo “Anime” – might actually be produced by OLM!https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2026-05-18/tubi-tv-licenses-yokoso-scooby-doo-anime-by-olm/.237510 Netflix to stream Milky☆Subway: The Galactic Limited Express Film on June 1https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2026-05-19/netflix-streams-milky-subway-the-galactic-limited-express-film-on-june-1/.237527 VIDEOS!Kawaii-Fi YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/KawaiiFiKyle’s YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@KyleinOrbitTifa's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/thetkennedy JOIN THE KAWAII-FI COMMUNITYFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/KawaiiFiAnime/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kawaiifianime/Threads: https://www.threads.net/@kawaiifianimeTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@kawaiifianimeDiscord: https://discord.gg/p9ccFx8vTQ LISTEN ELSEWHERE?Spotify: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-FiSpotifyApple: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-FiAppleYT Music: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-Fi-YMCastbox: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-FiCastboxGoodpod: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-fiGoodpodAmazon Music: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-FiAmazonPocket Casts: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-FiPocket EPISODE SEGMENTS00:00:00 – Show Opener00:02:46 – What We’re Watching00:30:31 – Cinema Club: All You Need is Kill00:59:53 – Anime Communique01:21:45 – Next Time, Twenty Bucks and ‘Don’t touch dat dog’ Tags:Anime,Manga,Anime Podcast,podcast,Anime Recommendations,,anime reviews,New anime,top 10 anime,Best anime,anime news,Petals of Reincarnation,Sword of the Stranger,Seraph of the End,Fate,All You Need Is Kill, Studio 4°C,Crunchyroll,Kenjiro Tsuda,Jujutsu Kaisen,Nanami,Scooby Doo,Gogo Scooby Doo,Yokoso Scooby-Doo,Milky Subway,Edge of Tomorrow,Tom Cruise
