A Reddit user showcased what a VALORANT anime opening would look like by animating various agents with their own cutscenes.  VALORANT has drawn inspiration from anime in the past with their skin line VALORANT GO!, which took several agents and turned them into a more anime style for their own weapon skins. There were even chibi gun buddies made of the agents, furthering the inspiration from Japanese culture.  Working on a little fanmade anime opening for VALORANT 🙂 Hope everyone enjoys 😀 from VALORANT Now, Reddit user emikoyaki has taken that inspiration to another level by creating an anime opening featuring several of the agents.

Let’s hear it for the Ghost. Although by no means the most powerful gun in VALORANT, it’s low-cost, highly efficient, and gets the job done to secure those all-important early-round leads.  If you enjoy the Ghost and are looking for something a little fancier than the base skin, you have a wide array of options to choose from to spice up your sidearm. And even better, a lot of the Ghost’s skins are available for free through completing agent contracts.

League of Legends has its fair share of cosplay enthusiasts. The character designs are rife with possibility, not to mention alternate skins. One recent Reddit post shows a masterful cosplay of Yone’s Spirit Blossom skin. Cosplayer ArsHedaCosplay created the look for an online League cosplay competition. To complete the outfit, they 3D printed the swords and stitched two wigs together for the hairstyle. But leaving no stone unturned, they then carefully implanted more hair strands, one by one, to get exactly the look they wanted.

It’s hard to find someone who doesn’t know Pikachu, a cute and round yellow Pokémon. But for Americans, things almost went differently. The Pokémon Company president Tsunekazu Ishihara revealed in a recent interview, translated by Dr. Lava in collaboration with Did You Know Gaming?, that Pikachu could have looked different from what fans of the franchise know and love today.  Nintendo had to translate Red and Blue, the American version of Pokémon Green, to Western consumers, including the designs and names of all 150 first-generation Pokémon, so players could relate better with the game.

In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, players quickly join the Galaxy Team’s Survey Corps, giving them access to the team’s official outfit.

Yet this particular fan was up to the challenge, looking to show that though the Survey Corps outfit may appear intricate, a thrifting haul could get all of the parts needed to complete the look.
