Fans of the 20th Century Fox mutant superhero series were anxious to see the backstory of fan-favorite character Wolverine explained, so Gavin Hood’s prequel X-Men Origins: Wolverine landed with a box office bang in 2009. But despite a successful financial run, the film was lambasted by fans and critics for its shoddy special effects, mistreatment of beloved characters (including a disastrous debut for Ryan Reynold’s Deadpool) and some truly baffling story choices. Join Sebastian and Jennifer as they go full adamantium claws out on this misshapen mutant misfire and show gratitude for the recent corrective of Deadpool & Wolverine.

Did we mention Giant-Sized X-Men: Jean Grey & Emma Frost (Left) is a homage to Grant Morrison's New X-Men #121 (Right)? Because it isn't shy about it!

Samurai Rabbit trivia refs (+ name reminder)
just short post to say: Usagi is meant as his given name.
We don't know the lore or backstory for why Yuichi was picked as a surname
update from 6.01.2024: Candie Langdale, one of the showrunners for SR, confirmed that it is indeed Yuichi Usagi [surname][given name] and that they asked about Yuichi as a surname from both their japanese consultant and Stan.
the backstory is that they wanted to name him Usagi, but wanted to differentiate him from Miyamoto Usagi as well. They also wanted to honor the guy working at the karaoke bar they had been frequenting the past 12 years. Yuichi was considered based on these as a surname.
(read the reply in this post post by Freakova here: https://www.tumblr.com/freakova/738803294989860864/the-writers-of-samurai-rabbit-have-confirmed-that)
the show follows the same naming conventions as the comic, so [surname][given name] as in real-world japan, Gen introduces himself as Murakami Gennosuke in ep 4.
However, it mostly drops honorifics in the EN language original (but the honorifics are back for some characters in the JP dub)
You can use/do whatever you want in your own fanfic/versions but it's just good to know where the show is coming from
You can also use them in the same way as Stan and the show's crew do - Usagi when it's just about him, Yuichi when they also bring Miyamoto Usagi into the convo, or "our Usagi"/Yuichi and "Stan's Usagi/Miyamoto when talking about them both.
Whether Yuichi is meant as a namesake, a title, or just a very rare surname, the show itself has all the younger/ally characters call each other by first name, while older/enemy characters get called by their title+surname (w/ the exception of Lady Fuwa and Chizu, bc of the story arc there)
his own aunt calls him Usagi
both names are probably meant to be used in general, but in-world, everyone who becomes friends with him starts calling him Usagi, which is the name he prefers to introduce himself (see episode 1)
(lol this next part is a lil debunked now after the news from 6.01.2024 haha)
I have a suspicion that maybe that's what the name was for, like a consideration for the old fans and new viewers. Maybe it was intentional because the showrunners were aware how naming is tricky for this franchise (re: that 1987 TMNT re-named Miyamoto Usagi "Usagi Yojimbo" and most 87 fans still know him as that? the showrunners are old enough to have been in that audience) so maybe they intentionally looked for something that would sound good as both surname and given name (just another thought)
Anyway, since there's still confusion by fans abt it, here's some good general sources also just for those interested in learning more random trivia abt the show. But these are the sources I've used to refute for myself what older posts/tags claim: that there was no research and no respect in the show for Stan's original work or for Japanese culture. From these it seems like the opposite is true.
"Samurai Rabbit Facts" - this is a "# facts" video but provides a lot of interesting trivia from both the show and crew, as well as about Stan's involvement in the show. Fun stuff in general, like how Usagi's sandal features Stan's signature as a fun easter egg to characters they wanted to include but didn't have time to.
Tumblr media
The Comicbook Couples Councelling podcast with Stan and Samurai Rabbit crew (youtube vers) - This interview features Stan and art director Khang Le talking about the characters and the art, while showrunners Candie and Doug Langdale answer burning questions about the storylines and writing the show as well as learning new things during pre-production and research. Both sides talk a bit about the challenges of adapting something as prolific as Usagi Yojimbo for a younger audience.
The 2021 SDCC @Home panel with Stan, crew and cast - LOTS of fun visuals and very informative on how the crew worked on the show when the first COVID lockdown happened.
The POPverse interview with Stan Sakai - This is a great interview about many of these same things in the other interviews, if you prefer reading rather than listening to interviews.
I have my old post abt Usagi's names and the connection to Senso (one of the main inspirations for the series) and i'm writing a new one, but I thought this shorter post might be useful. Plus, while writing longer essay-like things can be fun for me personally, the ultimate goal there is to provide some food-for-thought for other fans while being informative abt the show itself. Hope this helps!
(update 16.01: both of these are now slightly disproven I suppose since we know the real reason from co-showrunner Candie Langdale now since january 6th haha xD but - still keeping these as the theory is still interesting).

Brendan Fraser is having one heck of a year. The actor known for major movie hits from the 1990s like The Mummy just won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his performance in Darren Aronofsky's The Whale. He will also be seen in Martin Scorsese's next film, Killers of the Flower Moon. Due to all of the press Fraser was getting during awards season, the actor and his fans have been reminiscing about some of his most iconic roles. Unsurprisingly, some folks want to see him return to some of his roles from the past, including his former co-star Alicia Silverstone. Recently, the Clueless alum attended '90s Con (via Variety) and revealed she would be open to making a Blast From the Past sequel. The 1999 romantic comedy follows a man who rejoins society after spending his life in a fallout shelter. "With Brendan? I would do anything with Brendan. It was so much fun," Silverstone said during a Clueless panel when a fan asked if she'd make a Blast From the Past follow-up. "I just saw Brendan after he won his Oscar and he's so cute. He talked in his speech about how we all go through this really hard time and you have to grow and it's part of life that you struggle and then look what happened to him! So yes, I'm happy to do that."⚡️🍿🍿🍿 #comiccon #spoilermagazine #news #losangeles #podcast #magazine #art #instagram #galaxy #film #tv #hollywood #feature #movies #fandom #graphicdesign #nyc #spoiler #comicconradio #comicbooks #actors #artist #life #aliciasilverstone (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqSbJoTrq25/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

"Pulp Usagi" … or at least my own design of her :)
based on 2 Stan Sakai interviews where he talks about wanting to do different genres of Usagi descendants :) One of them is Pulp Usagi, mentioned in 2015 (Strange Worlds interview) and recently in 2023 in another CBCC interview with Stan and his wife Julie. I was inspired by that newer interview to have my own stab at her design... also we're finally getting the Kagemusha story that Stan mentioned in the previous CBCC interview, so I was excited to hear about that too in this second one.
From the Strange Worlds interview (it is mainly about UY: Senso), where I'd read about Stan wanting to do more stories of Usagi's descendants the 2nd time:
