It’s rare for an anime to be perfect, but some manage it right away. Several one-season shows, like Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood and Death Note, are nearly flawless. Some longer series also start incredibly strong, as seen in the first seasons of Vinland Saga and Mob Psycho 100. And sometimes, a particularly amazing season in the middle of a longer series can dramatically improve it. That’s what happened with the shows listed – they were good at the beginning, but really became great after a standout addition.

Fans have been eagerly awaiting a White Ranger toy from the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers line.

With Season 2 of the live-action series coming soon, Netflix has given fans a first glimpse of Brook, the popular musician from the Straw Hat Pirates. Actor Martial T. Batchamen will portray this important member of Luffy’s crew. Unlike the original manga, where Brook appears later, the series will introduce him earlier through a flashback. This flashback will focus on the Rumbar Pirates and their connection to Laboon, a massive whale, as the show adapts the Reverse Mountain Arc.

It’s rare for an anime to be perfect, but some manage it right away. Several one-season shows, like Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood and Death Note, come very close. A few longer series also start incredibly strong, such as Vinland Saga and Mob Psycho 100. Sometimes, a particularly amazing season in the middle of a longer show can completely elevate the entire series. That’s what happened with the shows listed – they were good at first, but really became exceptional after a standout addition.

As a huge Batman fan, I often hear people talking about classics like The Dark Knight Returns and Batman: The Long Halloween – and rightfully so, they’re amazing. But if you’re new to Batman comics, or haven’t read them in a while, it can be tough knowing where to start now. So, I’ve put together a list of series that I think are essential reads, not just because of where Batman’s story is at in the DC Universe today, but also because they’re the most exciting and talked-about recent runs.

The three main characters each possess special abilities developed through the story’s unique power system. We follow them as they master these skills, eventually becoming incredibly powerful. Here’s a look at how their powers compare.

The new anime series has quickly become a hit, and its popularity is continuing to grow. Netflix reports that Baki-Dou is currently the second most popular non-English show globally. Between February 22nd and March 1st, the series racked up an impressive 3.4 million views, despite only premiering on February 26th. Earning over 3.4 million views in just four days is remarkable, and the show is expected to perform well in the coming week. The top show, The Art of Sarah: Limited Series, has 4.3 million views – a relatively small difference.

A recent report from The Wall Street Journal details changes in Pixar’s leadership and how that’s influencing their move towards making more sequels and focusing on established franchises. The report mentions upcoming sequels like Toy Story 5, Incredibles 3, and Coco 2, and also reveals that Pixar is working on a third Monsters, Inc. movie – which would be fantastic if true.
