Currently, “Trigun” has been revitalized with a new look. In the ’90s, viewers were captivated as Vash the Stampede stormed through the anime world. Known for his quick wit and gunfighting action, Vash was the heart of “Trigun”, and he’s back in action in “Trigun Stampede”. Now, everyone is waiting to see what happens next with this reboot, and it appears that Studio Orange will draw inspiration from Marvel as they move forward.
John Cena is hanging up the jorts. During a surprise appearance at WWE Money in the Bank last month, Big Match John announced to the Toronto crowd that 2025 would mark his final year as an in-ring competitor, and he will be embarking on a year-long “farewell tour” to cap off his career. Cena has emphasized that when December 2025 rolls around, he is done as a wrestler but will continue to represent WWE as a proud ambassador, just trading the jean shorts and wristbands in for his signature three-piece suit. With this permanence known, wrestlers from across the industry have begun to campaign to match up with the 16-time world champion next year, including WWE Intercontinental Champion Bron Breakker and TNA star Joe Hendry.
In essence, “Shangri-La Frontier” could be set within a digital world similar to that of “Sword Art Online” and “Log Horizon,” but it’s not an Isekai in the traditional sense. Instead, protagonist Rakuro Hizutome interacts with this virtual environment as if it were simply a game. Though he doesn’t find himself stuck inside the game and battling for survival, the anime still delivers intense action and a captivating narrative. Interestingly, “Shangri-La Frontier” concluded its first season in March of this year, yet a second season is scheduled to premiere this fall, accompanied by a new poster highlighting its familiar characters.

In the Marvel Universe, Hellverine is set to leave a path of wrath as he forges ahead in a fresh series. Readers were initially introduced to Hellverine during the joint venture, Ghost Rider/Wolverine: Weapons of Vengeance, last year. This captivating character combines Wolverine’s physical structure with the supernatural hellfire emanating from Ghost Rider’s skull. Unlike a mere alter ego for Wolverine, Hellverine is none other than Akihiro, the resurrected son of Wolverine, also known as Daken, who was tragically killed by Victor Creed during the Sabretooth War. Despite the conclusion of Hellverine’s four-issue series this week, fans can expect more of this intriguing character in a forthcoming ongoing title.
