The search for the cheapest and yet best quality supermarket drink-as-you-go coffee continues. I know it's the first time I've made you aware of this project, but it's been going on since I moved to Glasgow. So far, Lidl's own brand remains the clear winner, a solid 8 on the taste meter at just 59p. But while writing this, I'm sipping an "Intenso" Arctic Coffee from Morrisons, which is giving the Lidl frontrunners some stiff competition at last, albeit at 145% the cost. Will one true victor emerge? Find out next week! For now, here's what we're all clicking on this weekend!

See the My Hero Academia: You're Next Movie Etiquette Short

Now that My Hero Academia: You're Next appeared in Japanese theaters, Toho Animation shared the movie etiquette short with Izuku Midoriya, Katsuki Bakugo, and Shoto Todoroki. It features the three reminding people what not to do while watching a film.

The video begins with the trio in a theater watching an All Might movie. Not long after it starts, Todoroki gets a call from his Endeavor. Bakugo yells at him, and there's a reminder not to use a device like a phone or tablet during the film. After that, Bakugo starts eating some chips he snuck into the movie. That's when the reminder comes up to not bring in food. Midoriya gets so captivated by the film that he starts taking notes, which causes Bakugo to use his Quirk on him to get him to stop. That's when the final rule—to not disturb those around you—comes up. 

Here's the full video reminding people to be considerate when watching My Hero Academia: You're Next in a movie theater.

moomin nendoroid

A Moomin (most likely Moomintroll) Nendoroid is now open for pre-order on Good Smile Company. Pre-orders will close on September 18, 2024.

The Moomin Nendoroid costs 3900 JPY if you're in Japan and it'll come out some time in February 2025. Meanwhile, those in North America have to pay $23.99 for it, and they can expect the Nendoroid to come out in Q3 2025. As a reminder, due to licensing restrictions, Good Smile Company can only ship to Canada and the United States.

The Moomin Nendoroid comes with two face plates: a standard expression and an angry one. It will also have a shell for an optional part. While the website states that there will be other parts, none of the pictures depict Moomin with anything other than a shell. There are various hand parts though, which can help you to pose him. The Nendoroid will also come with its own stand. It's a light green stand with the Moomin logo on it, with white flowers surrounding it.

Moomins are the main characters in the Swedish stories by Tove Jansson, and they are very popular in Japan as well. There is a theme park dedicated to them in Saitama. As well, there are lots of merchandise featuring the franchise's characters.

The Moomin Nendoroid is open for pre-order via Good Smile Company until September 18, 2024.
