Care to name a few ?

Doing nodes in text with PSTricks is not compilable directly with PFDLaTeX in conjunction with auto-pst-pdf. The same is true for the psgraph environment when doing data plots.

Since the final output format nowadays is mostly PDF, this is not very good although you always can compile by LaTeX → dvips → ps2pdf. Due to different graphics formats accepted by the two compilers this can be tedious.

On the other hand PSTricks works out of the box with XeLaTeX. IIRC that's what ghostanime is using, so I guess it's ultimately a matter of what you're used to and which syntax you're more familiar with.

As I see it it's best to pick your favourite and learn its options and possibilities instead of trying to mix PSTricks with TikZ. The latter seems only more work and more stuff to learn and not to bring any real advantages.

maybe near releases would allow that, cross package flexibility (made up name).

I wouldn't count on that. In fact I think this is rather unlikely.
