Michael is back with the first in a fun series for this week’s Translation Necessary Thursday. It’s “Hell Mode: Volume 01” by Hamuo!

Michael Blaker is back with a look at the upcoming summer season for this week’s Anime Sunday. It’s his Most Anticipated Anime of Summer 2022!

The Enterprise moves to Starbase I for repairs after the events with the Gorn, and the crew takes some time for some much needed shore leave. It goes about as well as you might expect.

Michael Blaker reviews many things for GiN. This week he details the reasoning behind his delay in getting Windborne’s Story Eatery back in business.

The Enterprise races to aid a suffering colony only to discover devastation and a ship full of traumatized survivors. They begin the rescue only to discover that they’ve been caught in a trap by one of the Federation’s most elusive enemies and something straight out of La’an’s nightmares.

Strange New Worlds has certainly hit the ground running. Episode three “Ghosts of Illyria” puts Pike and Spock in the middle of a deadly storm while a mysterious plague ravages the Enterprise in orbit. It falls to Number One to save everyone, but she must risk revealing a closely guarded secret about herself in order to do so.

Picard’s second season ends with a peculiar Q in “Farewell,” and the first two episodes of Strange New Worlds are definitely bringing back a certain feel in Trek. This week, something a little different.

Picard and Guinan must talk their way out of FBI custody while Seven and Raffi pursue the escaped nascent Borg Queen. Rios continues to romance Teresa, and Q comes sort of clean. This week: “Mercy.”

While comatose, Jean-Luc Picard must face his demons, including the ghost of his father. He discovers that not everything is as he believed it to be, and having done that, he reconnects with an old friend. This week: “Monsters.”

Picard and company, having infiltrated the astronaut gala, must now find and protect Renee Picard, even from herself. However, Q has other ideas and deploys Dr. Adam Soong. Kore Soong makes some disturbing discoveries, and Picard meets the business end of a vehicle. This week: “Two of One.”
