"GANTZ" creator Hiroya Oku revealed that he will retire as a mangaka after his current work "The Sweet Sixty Princess" as he's turning 60 next year himself.
"The Sweet Sixty Princess" is a manga about six middle-aged guys hitting 60 living together, when one of them gets to undergo a sex change and turn into a young girl thanks to a strange drug.

Why do large dogs tend to live shorter lives than their smaller counterparts?
The answer may be written into their epigenome, according to a new study in Science. The findings reveal that larger and male dogs undergo accelerated molecular aging, with pronounced DNA methylation on the X chromosome and at transposable elements.

Wolves have returned to Denmark after a 200-year absence. As farmers report livestock losses and residents encounter these predators near their homes, disagreements over how to handle the growing population have intensified. 🔗 on.natgeo.com/QvaVoD

Large-Scale High-Quality 3D Gaussian Head
Reconstruction from Multi-View Captures
Apple
apple.github.io/ml-headsup/
Abstract
We propose HeadsUp, a scalable feed-forward method for reconstructing high-quality 3D Gaussian heads from large-scale multi-camera setups. Our method employs an efficient encoder-decoder architecture that compresses input views into a compact latent representation. This latent representation is then decoded into a set of UV-parameterized 3D Gaussians anchored to a neutral head template. This UV representation decouples the number of 3D Gaussians from the number and resolution of input images, enabling training with many high-resolution input views. We train and evaluate our model on an internal dataset with more than 10,000 subjects, which is an order of magnitude larger than existing multi-view human head datasets. HeadsUp achieves state-of-the-art reconstruction quality and generalizes to novel identities without test-time optimization. We extensively analyze the scaling behavior of our model across identities, views, and model capacity, revealing practical insights for quality-compute trade-offs. Finally, we highlight the strength of our latent space by showcasing two downstream applications: generating novel 3D identities and animating the 3D heads with expression blendshapes.

POV: A simple walk through Japan… but it feels like a scene from an old home video 🇯🇵
No filters. No perfect shots. Just a cozy Japanese neighborhood, good tea, little discoveries, and that nostalgic late-2000s vlog feeling.
Made with Seedance 2.5 on @FishCreativeHQ
Prompt:
Preserve only the exact facial features, facial structure, hairstyle, natural expression, and skin tone from @image1 throughout. Do not copy the original outfit, pose, room, or body positioning from the reference image. Outfit: oversized terracotta linen shirt, dusty burgundy wide-leg trousers, brown leather sandals, small gold hoop earrings, loose natural wavy hair. Authentic Japanese woman speaking naturally in Japanese. Late-2000s personal vlog aesthetic. Extremely raw handheld flip-camera footage with heavy camera shake, natural reframing, partial face crops, focus hunting, exposure shifts, warm faded colors, mild digital noise, and authentic home-video imperfections. No posing, no cinematic glamour, no stabilization, no modern color grading.
00:00–00:04 Walking through a quiet traditional Japanese neighborhood with narrow streets, small wooden houses, bicycles, and greenery, smiling naturally into the camera. She says in Japanese, 「今日はちょっと街を散歩してみます!」 (“Today, I’m going to take a little walk around the neighborhood!”)
00:04–00:08 Stops outside a small traditional Japanese café, notices the entrance and looks excitedly toward the camera. She says, 「ここ、すごく雰囲気がいい!」 (“This place has such a lovely atmosphere!”)
00:08–00:12 Enters the cozy café, receives a small cup of Japanese tea, takes her first sip, smiles warmly, and says, 「ああ、おいしい。落ち着くね。」 (“Ah, it’s delicious. So relaxing.”)
00:12–00:16 Sits near the window at a small wooden table, casually chatting with the café owner and laughing naturally while holding her tea. The camera moves imperfectly between her face, the table, and the surroundings.
00:16–00:20 Tries a traditional Japanese sweet served with the tea, takes a bite, reacts with pleasant surprise, laughs softly, and says, 「これ、思ったより甘い!」 (“This is sweeter than I expected!”)
00:20–00:24 Walks back outside and continues through the neighborhood, casually filming small details such as a traditional shop, flowers, bicycles, and passing locals. She turns toward the camera and says, 「こういう場所、なんか好きだな。」 (“I really like places like this.”)
00:24–00:27 Walks beneath leafy trees as the late-afternoon sunlight filters through, briefly turns the camera toward herself, smiles shyly, and waves.
00:27–00:30 Stops at the end of the quiet street, turns back toward the camera with a warm natural smile and says in Japanese, 「また次の散歩で会いましょう。じゃあね!」 (“See you on my next walk. Bye!”) She gives a small wave as the handheld recording naturally ends.
Natural ambience only: distant Japanese conversations, bicycle bells, footsteps, birds, wind through trees, café sounds, cups and dishes, subtle street noise, and natural laughter. No background music, no subtitles, no logos, no watermarks. The character must speak Japanese only, with natural Japanese pronunciation and conversational timing. The footage should feel exactly like a genuine late-2000s handheld flip-camera vacation/lifestyle vlog with authentic human movement, imperfect framing, realistic interactions, and unpolished home-video charm.
