#K5NewsFMExclusive: A Dark and Dramatic Conclusion as the 4th Season of Wakfu will be the Last Season of its historic French cartoon series (updated as FINAL!!!)
(Written by Rhayniel Saldasal Calimpong / Freelanced News Reporter and Presenter of OneNETnews)
ROUBAIX, FRANCE -- The upcoming Season Premiere of Wakfu, which will air on the 'Okoo' kids and teens programming block through French public broadcaster 'France Televisions' is set to be a dramatic heartstopping conclusion. This will mark the beginning of the show's 4th and Final Season, scheduled to debut in early mid-February 2024. It is worth mentioning to recall that the entire production at Ankama Studios in France has been successfully concluded, thanks to the global campaign fund of Kickstarter that took place in late-June 2020.
(PRESS RELEASE OBTAINED by K5 News FM Dumaguete)
Per the press release exclusively obtained through DWFH-FM 97.7mhz's K5 News FM, the latest synopsis for the final season of a French cartoon show portrays intense and potentially darker scenes that comes up a bit close to happen: "After their destructive battle with Oropo, but also with their own demons, Yugo the Eliatrope and his friends find themselves at the gates of Ingloriom, the realm of the Gods. The Tofu Brotherhood (TFB) has no time to wonder what fate the 12 Divinities have in store for them for this sacrilege: the floating territory is devastated!".

Before an actual final season premiere on a national French television, a sneak preview in the panel is yet to be shown in-person at the Angoulême International Comics Festival (AICF) on Thursday late-afternoon (January 25th, 2024 at 5:30pm -- France local time).

Inside a panel in Angoulême City, the said country, will discuss about the upcoming 4th and Final Season of the show, in the presence of Wakfu show creator named Anthony "Tot" Roux, one of the authors with French YouTuber personality (Malec) and Wakfu's historical Character Designer (Sonia Demechlis).

In a televised trailer 'X Network' (formerly Twitter) released Tuesday afternoon (January 16th, 2024), the heroes of the Brotherhood of the Tofu, Yugo the Eliatrope, Prncs. Amalia Sheran Sharm, Ms. Evangelyne the Cra, Mr. Ruel Stroud and among others have fought against formidable enemies and ancient evils. But sadly, things are gone crazier and darker situations as the fate of 'The World of 12' rests on their shoulders.
K5 News FM learns exclusively that the runtime for this 4th Season of Wakfu is 22 minutes long, with a final 13 new episodes.
(FILE SCREENGRAB COURTESY: Generation TV_FR via YT VIDEO)

Hey It's Indigenous History Month
Donate to a good cause if you can, or boost if you can't?
First Nations Development Institute (these guys do everything: a program to provide training and assistance to Native farmers and ranchers who are just starting out; a Native language immersion program to fight language loss; and finally, the Western covid 19 response grant)
Indigenous Women Rising Abortion Fund (btw they're trans friendly, it's open to all indigenous people in the US and Canada)
Quileute Move To Higher Ground Fund (global warming is going to drown their community)
The Native American Rights Fund (a legal nonprofit fighting for the maintenance and advancement of Native Rights, including preservation of ancient hunting and fishing traditions, helping tribes obtain federal recognition, voting rights, and the reclamation of stolen artifacts)
The Redhawk Native American Arts Council (really amazing organization that aims to preserve and uplift Native culture through their art, educate the public on Native history, and producing four of the largest Native culture celebrations in the country)
American Indian College Fund (each year, over 4,000 Indigenous families are directly financially supported through scholarships; only 14.5 of Native adults hold college degrees, and AICF aims to correct this unacceptable tragedy)
AISES (a non-profit supporting lifelong education in and passion for STEM fields in Native communities, beginning in pre-K and carrying on through adulthood)

Chess Olympiad in Chennai
The Chess Olympiad is a biannual celebration of and competition for chess players all over the world that is organized by the Fédération Internationale des Échecs, which is better known as the International Chess Federation in English and often referred to as FIDE. In preparation for every Chess Olympiad, FIDE picks a host country where the Olympiad will be held. For the 44th edition of its Chess Olympiad, FIDE has honoured Chennai this year with the opportunity of hosting the Olympiad in India for the very first time! It will be held from July 28th to August 10th, 2022.
In addition to India being the Olympiad’s host for the very first time, the 44th Chess Olympiad will also be the biggest event that Chennai will host, following only the championship that took place between Indian chess Grand Master Viswanathan Anand and Grand Master Magnus Carlsen. Chennai is seemingly the perfect location for this edition of the Chess Olympiad as it is well known as the ‘mecca of Chess’ and also is the home of not only the 15th world champion GM Viswanathan Anand but also the talented up-and-comer, GM Praggnanandhaa R.
The Olympiad was originally supposed to be held in Russia. However, following the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, this decision was repealed and a new host country was sought for. Bharat Singh Chauhan, Secretary for the All-India Chess Federation (AICF; which is affiliated to FIDE) made all the moves necessary to bring the 44th edition of the Chess Olympiad home, to India. Communicating with Arkady Dvorkovich (President of FIDE), gaining the support of Tamil Nadu’s Chief Minister M.K. Stalin, and the backing of ₹92 crore sanctioned by the Tamil Nadu government; all these things showed the preparedness with which AICF Secretary and Olympiad Director Bharat Singh Chauhan brought home this virtuous opportunity for Chennai. As has been rightfully stated by Chauhan, it will be a “historic press conference” and a “big moment for all of us”.
To quote Chauhan directly, “It’s a great honour for India to host such a big event. This shows the position of the country in the chess world. I’m thankful to everyone involved who supported us in making this happen. This is a historic step and I believe it will take Indian chess to greater heights”. The townsman of Chennai and Indian chess GM Viswanathan Anand himself has shown his endorsement of the Olympiad, expressing how excited and honoured he feels about the Olympiad being held in Chennai.
Gathering participation from over 2000 chess players from around the globe, Tamil Nadu’s CM, M.K. Stalin, believes that this assembly of chess players for the prestigious Chess Olympiad will encourage the realization of Tamil Nadu’s dreams in the world of sports. The delight in bringing the Chess Olympiad to India can be sensed in Chauhan’s words, directly quoted from when he declared this thrilling news: “What Athens means for Olympics is how India will be to the chess community,” “It was our dream to bring the Chess Olympiad to India and now this announcement adds not only joy but extreme pride.”
44th Chess Olympiad: Returning Offline, Logo and Thambi, First Torch Relay
Over the years of 2020 and 2021, while the world took a pause and we were confined to our homes, the Chess Olympiad shifted to online mediums so as not to halt operations and continue the competition by adapting to the need of the hour. After two years online, the Chess Olympiad 2022 will bring all of its participants together in one location for a ceremony that will be nothing short of an absolutely grand event! The 44th Chess Olympiad is going to be held at Four Points by Sheraton Mahabalipuram Resort & Convention Centre, situated in Mamallapuram.
M.K. Stalin, the CM of Tamil Nadu, revealed the official logo and mascot for the 44th Chess Olympiad on Thursday, June 9th. “Thambi” (meaning ‘younger brother’) is a knight dressed in the traditional attire of Tamil Nadu that is veshti (dhoti), and a shirt that reads ‘Chess Believe’, with joined hands, greeting all guests and participants with a warm ‘Vanakkam’.
CM Stalin also expressed his gratitude by saying, “Hosting the 44th Chess Olympiad is an absolute honour for Chennai and all our officials are putting assiduous efforts to make it a grand and memorable success in the history of Indian Sports”.
One of the most auspicious activities for the Chess Olympiad will take place in its 44th edition, which is the first Olympic-style Torch Relay that shall be a tradition for every following Olympiad henceforth. FIDE has stated that Chennai would be the best place to mark the beginning of this tradition as it is, after all, the Mecca of Chess.
In relation to this decision, Arkady Dvorkovich, President of FIDE), can be directly quoted in saying, “This initiative will help in popularizing the game of chess and galvanising the support of fans across the world. Starting from the next edition of the Olympiad, in line with the traditions of the Olympic Games, the torch will travel across all continents visiting FIDE member territories, ultimately culminating in the host country and city ahead of the opening of the Chess Olympiad.”
Chess Olympiad 2022: Schedule, Format, Time Control, and Some Familiar Names
While the much anticipated 44th Chess Olympiad begins with its Opening Ceremony on 28th July, to allow all participants to settle in and ready themselves, Round 1 takes place on July 29th, with a one-round-per-day norm throughout the Olympiad.
There is only one rest day, which follows Round 6 of the Olympiad on August 3rd, and is scheduled for the full day of August 4th. After the players have replenished themselves and their skills, they shall prepare themselves for the second half of the Olympiad as August 5th brings on Round 7. Coming to a closure with the final round, Round 11, on the 9th of August, the Olympiad shall see its Closing Ceremony on the same day.
The format for the Olympiad shall have teams consisting of four players and one reserve, while each team shall have a captain, who is allowed to be one of the players. The teams will compete in an 11-round Swiss tournament, the time control being set at 90+30, with 30 minutes added to the clock after move 40.
The players include some prolific names such as Vidit Gujrathi, Praggnanandhaa R., Koneru Humpy, and Tania Sachdev, among the Indian players. GM Viswanathan Anand will mentor the Indian squads throughout the Olympiad. Some world-known names of participants also include GM Magnus Carlsen and Fabiano Caruana.
At Saswath Academy, our coaches train kids in Chess as a skill rather than an academic system. Preparing for tournament requires patient, consistent efforts, not just for the player but also parents and coaches. Anyone can play chess, but competitive Chess requires a more understanding, analysis-based approach. Talk to our coaches and take a free demo of our class to know more about our teaching methods.
