This could be bad news indeed. Sony has at least been releasing their exclusive titles on PC recently, so even if they go through with the acquisition we might still get future FromSoft games on PC (hopefully) but the tidbit about their anime and manga holdings is also troubling.

Sony already owns Crunchyroll. Giving a corporation this much control over anime/manga would be disastrous.

The source in the article is Reuters, not just some rando rumor or tweet.
