MPO Announces 'Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba' Concert In KL This September
Calling all anime fans – it's time to get excited! If you're obsessed with the popular 'Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba' series, you're in for a treat. The Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra has announced that it will be holding an orchestral concert featuring music from the anime later this year. The musical ensemble has previously staged concerts featuring music from popular anime and video games, including the Genshin Impact concert and the Symphonic Ghibli concert. Based on our experience, those performances were nothing short of magical, so there's no doubt that this upcoming concert will be just as spectacular. According to the press statement, 'Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba In Concert' is set to immerse audiences in an extraordinary live musical celebration of the captivating world of Demon Slayer. The iconic soundtrack from 'Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba' – Tanjiro Kamado, Unwavering Resolve Arc will be brought to life by a full orchestra, while the most unforgettable scenes are projected onto a full-size cinema screen. This upcoming performance is more than just a musical event – it offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for anime fans and franchise enthusiasts to experience the series' emotional depth and cinematic grandeur live, for the very first time. Details of the event are as follows: Date: 20th September 2025 (Saturday) 20th September 2025 (Saturday) Time: 8pm 8pm Venue: Dewan Filharmonik PETRONAS Dewan Filharmonik PETRONAS Ticketing: RM298 (C-Reserve), RM388 (B-Reserve), RM478 (A-Reserve), RM558 (Premium), Suite: RM608/seat & RM648/seat Tickets for Friends of DFP will be available for purchase from 12pm on 21st May (Wednesday), while public sales will open at 12pm on 23rd May (Friday). Are you excited to see the show? Which track from the anime are you looking most forward to hearing live at the concert? We personally hope that there'd be a special guest vocalist to sing the iconic opening theme 'Gurenge', originally performed by LiSA. How about we enjoy the song to get us hyped for the upcoming event? Source: Instagram

Scientists create artificial leaf to convert CO2 into chemicals using sunlight
Researchers from the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and international collaborators have developed an artificial leaf capable of converting carbon dioxide (CO2) into valuable chemicals using sunlight. This breakthrough, published in Nature Catalysis, is part of the Liquid Sunlight Alliance (LiSA), a multi-institutional initiative aimed at creating liquid fuels from solar energy. The innovative device, combining copper and perovskite, mimics natural photosynthesis. It harnesses sunlight to produce C2 molecules, essential precursors for products such as plastic polymers and jet fuel. The research is a significant advancement in solar fuel technology, following decades of efforts to replicate photosynthesis in artificial systems. The device, about the size of a postage stamp, uses a copper-based electrocatalyst to facilitate the conversion of CO2, a process inspired by natural enzymes in plant leaves. While previous attempts relied on biological materials, this design integrates copper for improved stability and longevity. The system demonstrates the potential for scalable solar-powered CO2 conversion, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional fuel production. The LiSA collaboration, led by Caltech in partnership with Berkeley Lab and other research institutions, aims to address global energy challenges. With this proof-of-concept device, researchers hope to increase efficiency and expand the system's size to move toward practical applications in industries that require large-scale fuel production. The project is supported by the US Department of Energy's Office of Science and underscores ongoing efforts to develop renewable energy solutions that combat climate change while supporting critical industries.
