7 of the Most Exciting Anime Movies Coming Out in 2022
Amanda Mullen
Anime movies have always been popular, but they've reached all new heights heading into 2022. With releases like Demon Slayer: Mugen Train and Jujutsu Kaisen 0 breaking box office records, it's no wonder many anime studios are planning to release feature films over the next year. Which ones are we most excited about?
'Jujutsu Kaisen 0'

RELATED: 'Jujutsu Kaisen': Could the Movie's Success Mean a Season 2 Announcement Is on the Horizon?
Jujutsu Kaisen 0 debuted in Japan back in 2021, but the anime movie is likely to see a worldwide release sometime in 2022. Although an official date hasn't been chosen just yet, My Hero Academia: World Heroes' Mission only took a few months to debut overseas. And even Demon Slayer: Mugen Train — which came out in the midst of COVID-19 delays and closures — didn't take a full year to make the jump.
Fans are eager to get their hands on Jujutsu Kaisen 0, which serves as a prequel to the main series. It will follow second-year student Yuta Okkotsu as he enrolls in Jujutsu High. The spirit of Yuta's childhood sweetheart attached herself to him, and he needs to learn to control his cursed energy.
Given how successful the Jujutsu Kaisen prequel was in Japan, it's probably safe to say all the excitement about this film is warranted. Fingers crossed we get an official 2022 release date for it soon.
'Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero'
Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero is slated for an April 22 release in Japan, and the film is already generating as much excitement as Dragon Ball Super: Broly. Although fans were initially skeptical of Toei Animation's shift to 3D animation, the recent trailer got many of them amped up about the coming release — especially with its focus on Gohan.
Like Jujutsu Kaisen 0, the latest Dragon Ball Super film doesn't have a worldwide release date yet. However, the anime movie is likely to head overseas during the latter half of 2022. When it does, international viewers will get to see how Goku and the gang handle the Red Ribbon Army, a villainous organization hellbent on bringing them down.
'One Piece Film: Red'
RELATED: 'One Piece' Episode 1,000: Fans Are Thrilled With This Love Letter to the Long-Running Anime
One Piece recently celebrated 1,000 episodes, but fans have more to look forward to beyond its big milestone. One Piece: Red comes out this summer, marking the anime's 15th film to date.
Judging by the teaser for the movie, Shanks will play a prominent role in the upcoming story — as will a character fans haven't met yet. The One Piece movie debuts on Aug. 6, 2022. And fans can expect more updates about its plot as the date approaches.
'That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: The Movie'
That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime hasn't been renewed for season 3 just yet, but fans of the anime do have a movie to look forward to in 2022. The film is expected to arrive during the fall season, and it may just be accompanied by an announcement about new episodes.
Plot details about the upcoming release are still under wraps, but fans suspect it will tackle the story told in light novel Volume 7. They'll have to wait for an official trailer to confirm that hunch. Luckily, there are plenty of other anime releases to enjoy in the meantime.
'Isekai Quartet: Another World'
RELATED: Winter 2022 Anime — Which Shows Should You Watch?
Isekai Quartet blends multiple series in the isekai genre into one entertaining story, and fans are eagerly awaiting its third season. In the meantime, they also have a film to look forward to. And Isekai Quartet: Another World promises to be every bit as fun as the series it expands upon.
Isekai Quartet: Another World is confirmed for a 2022 release, but it's still unclear when exactly fans will see it. Apart from a brief teaser, not much has been revealed about the upcoming film. Anime lovers will have to hold themselves over with other isekai series while they wait for updates.
'Suzume no Tojimari'

— 映画『すずめの戸締まり』 (@suzume_tojimari) December 15, 2021
Makoto Shinkai is known for writing and directing anime movies like Your Name and Weathering With You, and he's returning with another project in 2022.
According to MyAnimeList, Suzume no Tojimari will follow a teenage girl who gets swept off on an adventure with a man looking for a door. And when Suzume finds that door, she kicks off a domino effect she'll have to stop. All of it culminates in a journey that may see her saving Japan.
Although Suzume no Tojimari doesn't have a specific release date, the anime movie will arrive sometime during the fall 2022 season. If Shinkai's previous work is anything to judge by, Suzume no Tojimari will prove a success. Its premise alone makes it sound like a beautiful addition to the 2022 lineup.
'Sword Art Online Progressive: Scherzo of a Dark Dusk'

Sword Art Online Progressive: Aria of a Starless Night came out at the end of 2021. And its follow-up, Sword Art Online Progressive: Scherzo of a Dark Dusk, is already confirmed for 2022. It will continue the adaptation of Reki Kawahara's light novels, offering a new perspective of the anime's Aincrad Arc.
There's no word on when in 2022 the next Sword Art Online movie might arrive, but anime fans should keep an eye out for updates. Hopefully, it won't take too long to get here. After all, fans are still amped up from the first film!

I've been thinking a lot about the lady in the elevator and Asher falling out of the swing. I guess the thread is the unexpectedness of life. You're cruising along, the weather's great, you like what you're doing, then bam! You fall out of the swing. The question is, what now?
Yesterday Asher wanted to swing. And he wanted to go fast. And he wanted me to push him.
Asher fell out of the swing and busted his face up pretty good. He came up crying. He wanted me to pick him up and hold him. He wanted his mommy. We pulled the grass out of his nose, cleaned him up and held him until he stopped crying. He wanted his blanket and "do" (pacifier). He wanted to sit on the couch and watch Diego. And then the next day he wanted to swing again.
In other words: he got hurt, grieved the moment, got comforted, then got back to work. The key here is that he wanted me first, then his stuff.
We don't do that. We get the crap kicked out of us and go looking for solace and comfort everywhere BUT God. In the Asher analogy, when we fall off the swing we don't go looking for our Father. We lay on the ground and wail. We grab the lighter fluid and the matches and burn the swing set down. We clutch the pacifier and blanket and live on the couch in front of Diego.
Sure we turn to Him, but it's usually after we've talked to everybody and Oprah first. It's after we've self-medicated with our numbing agent of choice. It's after a month of living in funk of self-pity.
I got on the elevator with someone going to six and asked if they knew who the lady was and they didn't. I don't know what I was hoping to accomplish. I think I just wanted to know her name. I'm sure she's fine and was just emotional walking into the building for the last time, but I still wish I could talk to her again. I wish I could encourage her to run to and be held by her Father, and let Him pull the grass out of her nose. I wish I could tell her to watch a little Diego (because we all need a little Diego) and get back on the swing.
It's flawed, it's messy, it's all over the place, but it's in there somewhere. And I just used three phrases that mean the same thing.
And here's Seth's blog, where he learned something from his kid too.

Ubisoft has canceled three unannounced titles and delayed Skull and Bones again
Ubisoft has updated its 2022-23 year-end financial targets as well as made changes ahead of its next financial year.
These changes have led the company to cancel three unannounced titles and delay its pirate game Skull and Bones for the sixth time.
Hopefully, someday, the game will FINALLY be released
According to Ubibsoft, it wants to ensure all of its energy is focused on building its brands and live services into some of "the most powerful within the industry." As a consequence of this, it decided to cancel the three unannounced projects, on top of the four already announced in July 2022.
In the financial update, the firm said it was facing major challenges as the industry continues to shift towards "mega-brands" and long-lasting titles. It said while its strategy over the past four years has been about building long-lasting live games and adapting its strongest franchises to these converging trends, the games from this investment phase have yet to be released and recent launches have not performed as well as expected.
Compounding this effect, in the context of worsening macroeconomic conditions, the trends over last weeks of December and beginning of January were "markedly and surprisingly slower than expected." This caused the company to do a full review of its revenue prospects leading to increased cautiousness over the coming years.
"We are clearly disappointed by our recent performance. We are facing contrasted market dynamics as the industry continues to shift towards mega-brands and everlasting live games, in the context of worsening economic conditions affecting consumer spending, said Yves Guillemot, Ubisoft co-founder and CEO.
"Despite excellent ratings and players' reception as well as an ambitious marketing plan, we were surprised by Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope underperformance in the final weeks of 2022 and early January. Just Dance 2023 underperformed as well. Therefore, with the approval of the Board of Directors, we are taking additional important strategic and operational decisions today.
"It is key to continue adapting our organization, to further strengthen our execution and to ensure we both deliver amazing games to players as well as great value creation. The industry's long-term prospects remain promising, and I am convinced Ubisoft is well positioned to benefit from this momentum thanks to the strength of our teams, brands, production capacity, technology and balance-sheet.
"Our back-catalogue remains very healthy with notably robust activity on Rainbow Six Siege, great momentum for our Assassin's Creed games, and generally solid performance from our live games. We expect our strategy to build long-lasting live games and transform our biggest brands into truly global phenomenon with multiple offerings across platforms and business models, to ultimately generate significant value creation, with strong topline and operating income growth over the coming years."
As far as the oft-delayed Skull and Bones is concerned, the company has postponed its release into the early part of its 2023-24 fiscal year. Ubisoft said the delay will give it "more time to showcase" a much more polished and balanced experience and to build awareness.
Those looking forward to the game will just have to be satisfied and upcoming beta phase. The company feels the additional time the developers have spent on the game so far have paid off and brought "impressive improvements to its quality."
Last we heard, the game was set to be released on Luna, PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S March 9, 2023 – which was a delay from the previous date set November 8, 2022.
Announced at E3 2017, the pirate romp was delayed several times beofre finally being given a release date of November 8 back in July 2022 before it, as stated above, was delayed again. Hopefully, this latest delay will be its last.
Previous: Bethesda and Xbox to host Developer Direct presentation on January 25
Next: PS Plus Premium and Extra games for January include Back 4 Blood, Sayonara Wild Hearts, Syphon Filter 3, more

March 16, 2019 - Dubai, U.A.E. – With top executives from Singapore-based Giti Tire gathered in Dubai, the company inaugurated its first Giti flagship store on 7th March, 2019. In partnership with Amin Auto Care, the festive event included exciting displays, a ceremonial signing of a Commitment to Service, as well as remarks by Executive Director of International Sales and Marketing, Chris Bloor, as well as others. The event was held at the fast-growing Dubai Investment Park (DIP) district, a prefect location to reach a large and diverse customer base.
The day began with guests invited to enjoy refreshments and view the inside and outside of the large and decorated mega store, complete with new signage and painting, revamped interior, and newly installed waiting room. A ribbon was cut to kick off the main event, where speakers from both Giti Tire and Amin Auto Care shared their comments and vision for the future. Finally, attendees had the chance to meet with company management and were given exclusive branded gifts. It was emphasized the importance of choosing the location as the Middle East's first Giti Flagship store. Giti's retail store program carefully selects only the stores with best service, customer experience, and branding potential.
Giti Tire's dedication to retail service was clear at the event, which was highlighted by an unveiling and signing of a 'Commitment to Service' display, signed both by Mr. Bloor and Mr. Chandran of Amin Auto Care. Prior to the signing, Elson Tsai, Head of International Marketing for Giti Tire, shared the importance of the commitment. "The signing of this today is more than just a paper, but a shared agreement for Giti and Amin Auto Care to provide the best levels of service the entire local community. Through this commitment, we will be able to achieve success and grow further together". Each Giti Flagship store must adhere to the principles of the company and brand in order to be selected.
Based in Singapore and one of the world's largest tire companies with USD $3.4 Billion (Dh 12.47 Billion) revenue in 2017, Giti Tire has had a strong presence in the Middle East for more than 25 years, selling different brands in the region. However, the recent introduction of its flagship Giti brand and its new product and communication offerings has put the company more in the spotlight. With a full range of passenger car, SUV/4x4, and commercial truck and bus tires produced in eight factories in China, Indonesia, and the US, as well as expanded brand presence, Giti Tire is strongly poised to continue growing its brand presence in the Middle East, where it has dedicated distribution partners in all major markets in the region. Adding into its 35,000 global employees and 12 offices around the world, Giti Tire recently established a local Middle East office located in the Dubai Free Zone.

#ReadSoulLit Photo Challenge Day 24 – Favorite "Chick Lit"
Day 24 – Favorite "Chick Lit" I read this book about four years ago and it made me feel so many different things. 32 Candles is more than a typical "chick lit". Between the engaging story and the touching protagonist, Davie Jones, it's a winner. It's nice to have a few light reads on the shelves too. I'm really excited about picking up Ernest T. Carter's second novel The Awesome Girl's Guide to Dating Extraordinary Men. What are some of your favorite chick lit novels by black authors?
"32 Candles is the slightly twisted, utterly romantic, and deftly wry story of Davie Jones, who, if she doesn't stand in her own way, just might get the man of her dreams.
Davie—an ugly duckling growing up in small-town Mississippi—is positive her life couldn't be any worse. She has the meanest mother in the South, possibly the world, and on top of that, she's pretty sure she's ugly. Just when she's resigned herself to her fate, she sees a movie that will change her life—Sixteen Candles. But in her case, life doesn't imitate art. Tormented endlessly in school with the nickname "Monkey Night," and hopelessly in unrequited love with a handsome football player, James Farrell, Davie finds that it is bittersweet to dream of Molly Ringwald endings. When a cruel school prank goes too far, Davie leaves the life she knows and reinvents herself in the glittery world of Hollywood—as a beautiful and successful lounge singer in a swanky nightclub.
Davie is finally a million miles from where she started—until she bumps into her former obsession, James Farrell. To Davie's astonishment, James doesn't recognize her, and she can't bring herself to end the fantasy. She lets him fall as deeply in love with her as she once was with him. But is life ever that simple? Just as they're about to ride off into the sunset, the past comes back with a vengeance, threatening to crush Davie's dreams—and break her heart again.
With wholly original characters and a cinematic storyline, 32 Candles introduces Ernessa T. Carter, a new voice in fiction with smarts, attitude, and sassiness to spare."(32 Candles, back cover)

Dublin, NH --- Supporters of campaign reform will hold the Fifth Annual "Granny D Memorial Walk" from Dublin to Peterborough on Saturday, August 25.
Walkers will gather at 9:00 am near Granny D's home on Cobb Meadow Road, Dublin, for a six-mile walk ending in Depot Square Park in Peterborough. Food and entertainment will be provided at the end of the march, in Depot Square around noon. The event is free and open to the public.
Celebrate Granny D and her cause!
If you aren't familiar with Doris "Granny D" Haddock, think of her as a modern-day Paul Revere. He, of course, raced from Boston to warn the Minutemen that British troops were coming. Haddock's "midnight ride," completed at age 90, was a 14-month, 3,200-mile walk across the country to awaken Americans to the growing corruption of our democracy by wealthy special interests, and to enlist modern-day patriots to fight it.
On Saturday, Aug. 12, a nonpartisan grassroots group founded by Haddock will celebrate her and enlist new supporters to her cause with a six-mile walk starting soon after 9 a.m. near her former home in Dublin. The walk will end in Peterborough with a rally, live music, and a pizza lunch. Please join us!
Haddock died at age 100 in 2010, but she would not have been surprised today that the United States spends nearly three times as much for health care as comparable advanced countries without getting better overall care. Nor would she be surprised by how polarized Congress is, or by its seeming inability to debate and pass multi-partisan, fair, affordable and workable solutions to health care, the economy, and other challenges.
Most importantly, recent events would never have made Haddock stop fighting. When she began her walk, many dismissed her as an out-of-touch dreamer and considered her cause futile. Fourteen months later, several dozen members of Congress walked some of the final miles to the U.S. Capitol with her, and Congress soon passed the McCain-Feingold campaign finance reform act.
Kazi posted this on behalf of Joe Magruder, a retired journalist and New Hampshire Rebellion member since 2013.
5-mile NH Rebellion March to End Big Money in Politics.
Portsmouth, NH - At 9:00 am this Saturday, July 9, dozens of committed "Granny D walkers" will set out from Portsmouth High School to raise awareness of the corrupting influence big money has on our Democracy.
Over the last two years, hundreds of reform-minded citizens have braved the elements and walked more than 40,000 miles across New Hampshire in a frigid "New Hampshire Rebellion" against big money in politics. Walkers from across NH marched from Dixville Notch in the north, Nashua in the south, Keene in the west, and Portsmouth in the east.
The July 9 Seacoast walk will kick off from Portsmouth High School at 9:00 AM. Reformers will be greeted in Market Square by a marching band, then will walk on to Fort Constitution for a rally at noon.
CONCORD, NH – Open Democracy, the nonprofit organization founded by legendary campaign finance reformer Doris "Granny D" Haddock in 2009, announced today that Executive Director Dan Weeks of Nashua is leaving to take the next step in his distinguished career of public service by running for public office. An announcement of his plans is expected soon.
Big money from special interests isn't just flooding the presidential contest – it threatens the integrity of our state races as well. That's why, as the presidential contest moves to other states, NH Rebellion is turning our attention to the blockbuster Senate race between Sen. Kelly Ayotte and Gov. Maggie Hassan, which could easily exceed the 2014 record of $30 million in negative attacks from "independent" groups – unless we intervene now.

Q: Flex 3: possible to run a function after a repeater is completed done loading the children? I have a repeater which creates a child named "wholeProject" each time the repeater loops.
<mx:Repeater id="projectRP" dataProvider="{projectsHttp.lastResult.project}">
    <Block:project
        id="wholeProject"
        oneDay="{(usableSize.width - 16)/14}"
        projectID="{projectRP.currentIndex}"
        creationComplete="getConflicts('project', 'l', false); getStudentYears();"
    />
</mx:Repeater>

As you can see from the last line of the  piece, i have a the creationComplete option run two functions.  What I would LIKE to happen is once the repeater is done loading all of the block:project pieces for each function to run once and only once.  Instead, the two functions are running after each  is created.  I tried putting the creation complete in the  tag, but that didn't work.
Is there a way to tell the creationComplete piece to run only when the last piece of the repeater has been created?

It is becoming an all too familiar story: America's public education system is failing. Among developed nations, American students rank 25th in math and 21st in science. And the trend is going south. In September, we learned that the high school class of 2011 posted the lowest SAT scores of all time.
But those statistics don't tell the whole story. In wealthier school districts, American public school students actually perform better on international tests than their counterparts in Finland, Japan, and Korea.
For our public school kids in truly poor school districts, however, their best and often only chance is in the kind of lifeline depicted in the climactic scene of the powerful documentary Waiting for Superman.
Hundreds of children and their families, gathered in a school gymnasium, are hoping and praying they will win the lottery. If theirs is one of the few numbers picked, they will escape their neighborhood school and attend a highly coveted charter school.
The drama is intense. The joy on the faces of those kids whose number is picked is palpable. The despair of those left behind is devastating.
No American child should have to win the lottery just to get a decent education. It is a scandal of the highest magnitude and a violation of the most basic precepts of justice.
For many reasons (educational quality, moral environments hostile to faith), many Christian families have fled public schools for Christian and other private schools or even homeschooling. While we must ensure our own children receive a proper education, we must also care deeply about those left behind.
After all, education is in our DNA as Christians.
December 2011, Vol. 55, No. 12, Pg 58, "Education Is in Our DNA"
