HBO Max is making a live-action series based on the manga Song of the Samurai, originally known as Chiruran: Shinsengumi Requiem. The manga ran for thirty-six volumes from 2010 to 2023, and while an anime adaptation was made in 2017, it only had one short season. This new series will have plenty of source material to work with. Anime fans will be able to watch this fresh take on Chiruran when it premieres on May 9th, and it’s expected to be a hit this summer on HBO Max.
This expansion builds on the game’s already great action and style by adding three new story chapters, two new weapons, fresh enemies, new trials, and a challenging new mode called ‘Abyssal Road’. It looks like a lot of fun!

I was really paying attention to the newest prequel, and while they didn’t talk about Aegon’s dream – even with all the Targaryens – something interesting did happen in the first season finale of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. Early in the episode, while Lyonel Baratheon is chatting with his Maester and Dunk, Dunk gets frustrated and blurts out, “The Others fking geld me.” It seems like a random thing to say, but it’s actually a big deal! It’s the first time we’ve heard the characters refer to them as “the Others” on screen – they’ve always called them “White Walkers” before.
