Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle just smashed box office records, proving anime movies are dominating worldwide. We break down the Infinity Castle hype, why Ufotable’s Demon Slayer trilogy model is working, and how this could change anime in theaters forever. Then it’s NFL Week 2 picks and predictions — Packers hot start, Brock Purdy vs. Mac Jones drama, Joe Burrow’s turf toe injury, Baker Mayfield’s MVP case, and our blind bets for the weekend. Finally, the Emmys 2025 left fans heated: Penguin, Severance, The Bear, and more — what deserved to win, what got snubbed, and why award shows keep missing the mark.

Plus: Street Fighter movie hype, Nintendo Direct with Super Mario Galaxy, Netflix’s BioShock adaptation, Fallout season 2, Witcher season 4, and anime news from Chainsaw Man to My Hero Academia’s final season.

It’s nerd news, sports chaos, and comedy every Friday at Grog’s — welcome to Taps and Takes.
