Anime has a unique way of making everyday life feel special. Simple things, like a bowl of ramen, can seem beautiful, and important moments – like a confession of love – often happen during perfectly timed events, like falling cherry blossoms. Plus, anime towns always seem to have quirky, memorable festivals that feel like important experiences.
As a big fan of Peacemaker Season 2, I was really following the Justice Gang’s search for new members. It’s been a while since Superman left, and while Metamorpho joined Guy Gardner, Mr. Terrific, and Hawkgirl, they haven’t really added anyone else. That got me thinking about who else could be awesome additions to the Justice League now that James Gunn is building his DCU. Here are seven heroes I think would be a perfect fit.
A user on X (formerly Twitter), @TheRealZephryss, recently shared photos of a new Edward Kenway figurine that’s supposedly coming out with the remake of Assassin’s Creed 4. The figure appeared on Vinted, and the listing claimed the new Black Flag remake will launch in 2026. The post went viral, and Ubisoft responded with the popular “Ah st, here we go again” meme from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. While Ubisoft hasn’t confirmed the leak is real, their response suggests the information wasn’t meant to be public yet.
Roland seems like a typical Kingsguard member from the show – he’s proud and looks down on others, as Donnel points out. Donnel, however, is much more approachable. He treats Dunk as an equal, which is significant considering where Dunk’s story might go later on. (Note: This contains minor spoilers about Dunk’s future, based on events in Game of Thrones.)

Jay Russell’s The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep is a wonderful movie for the whole family, and it’s well worth watching, even though many people seem to have forgotten about it.

It tells the story of Angus, a boy who’s dealing with the loss of his father, and who finds a strange egg on the shore of Loch Ness.

Released for PlayStation 4, Ace Combat 7: Skies of Unknown puts you in the cockpit as Trigger, a pilot fighting for redemption during a war between Osea and Erusea. Since its 2019 launch, this critically acclaimed air combat game from Bandai Namco has sold over seven million copies. If you’re looking forward to Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve, playing Ace Combat 7 first is highly recommended.
Damian Lillard is revisiting his roots in the horror genre. He first gained recognition starring in the video game adaptation of Five Nights at Freddy’s, and now he’s joining the cast of the new Scream 7 film. Fans are eager to find out exactly how his character will fit into the story.
Although Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero and Dragon Ball Daima were strong additions to the Dragon Ball series, they didn’t showcase the full extent of Goku’s power. Fans have eagerly awaited more of Ultra Instinct Goku since the original anime concluded, and the upcoming Galactic Patrol Prisoner arc promises to deliver, as Goku learns to master this powerful form.
Despite a rocky start, the game Highguard launched on time. While initial reactions were largely negative – many players are already predicting its failure due to low player numbers and numerous issues – there’s still potential here. The development team is experienced and dedicated, and the game has a unique quality that, with improvement, could be truly exceptional. Ultimately, Highguard deserves a different assessment than the game Concord received.
