Best Old School Anime
If you’ve been watching both old school anime and recent anime series, you know that a lot has changed in the medium. Compared to the series of the late 20th century, it cannot be denied that the animation quality has improved overall. Kyoto Animation and Shaft became widely popular for their distinct and stylish adaptations of manga and light novels such as Haruhi Suzumiya, Hibike! Euphonium, and the Monogatari Series. It’s definitely difficult to see a series like Ghost in the Shell today, so it’s worth celebrating the best old school anime that have actually stood the test of time.

Best Blue Light Glasses for Gamers
Gaming glasses are a new and essential accessory for any serious gamer, or anyone who spends a lot of time staring at screens. As we all spend more and more time on computers and other devices, there is evidence that the blue light from screens is related to macular degeneration, and more people suffer from eye strain and screen-headaches. Blue-light cancelling glasses for gamers reduce the amount of blue light streaming into the wearer’s eye, ultimately helping to maintain sharp perception of what is happening on screen. As a bonus, they help to reduce overall strain and cumulative damage over time.

'Star Wars' Fan Favorite Kindle Comic Books
Comic books are gateways to the broader universe of Star Wars. My favorite aspect of the comic book medium is the way the art can create a whole new visual take on the Star Wars story, or simply reinforce the pictures in your mind from childhood. Star Wars was unique in the world of pop culture franchises. It began first with the movie and then with the comic books. Ironically it has always been a world where the written word had to do justice to the visual, not vice versa, which is more often the case. Perhaps that is why such close attention to detail whether it be the art, the dialogue or the script, is what makes these Star Wars Kindle comics some of the big fan favorites.

Plus Size Cosplayers You Need to Know
Plus size cosplayers are making waves in the geek world. If you have ever been to a comic convention, you have seen these badass women walking the floors dressed as everything from Poison Ivy to Gandalf. These ladies consistently prove that you do not need to be a size zero to look good and you do not need to be a man to enjoy nerdy things. However, there are some self-proclaimed gatekeepers of geek culture who may not agree, who shame and harass these ladies because they do not fit their idea of a cosplayer. Here are some of the many unapologetic plus size cosplayers who prove the haters wrong day after day.

5 Greatest "Unrealistic" Sports Games
The first video game I had for the SEGA Dreamcast was NBA 2K, the most realistic basketball video game at the time. Every sports game since then brags about how realistic it is, and as the years go on the game gets more and more lifelike. But there's something fun about breaking away from that, sometimes realistic is stale. I was always a big fan of video games that were deemed "unrealistic" and frankly, I prefer those games to Madden and NBA 2K. Some of my friends that are die hard sports fans said these games were a disgrace to the sport. Those friends were wrong. Just because you like playing a realistic (read boring) baseball game and I like playing baseball with fire and punching, doesn't make one game necessarily better than the other. For those of you who are fans of these so called disgraces, here's the 5 best unrealistic sports video games.

That’s why, while the most comfortable gaming chairs have price tags to match, there are budget options available that still contend.
