Studio Ghibli’s president, Hiroyuki Fukuda, recently explained the studio’s stance on streaming its films.

Carol Danvers evolved beyond her origins as Ms. Marvel, becoming a prominent member of the Avengers. However, a storyline in Avengers #200 damaged her character.

Since then, Carol’s journey has had its peaks and valleys, but she’s become a fan-favorite heroine in the Marvel Universe. She eventually took on the Captain Marvel identity, surpassing her mentor in prominence. Despite her popularity, Carol isn’t considered the best Captain Marvel – in fact, some argue she’s the least effective.
