While "Dune: Part Two" continues to dominate the box office, Netflix is bringing a whole lot of new titles to the platform -- and we're doing our best to make sure that not all of them get lost in the algorithm.
This April, Netflix is bringing some highly anticipated titles, including what was once meant to be a spin-off of "Doom Patrol" (the best superhero show that isn't a superhero show), a brand new anime from the studio behind "Ranking of Kings," and not one but two live-action adaptations of beloved manga — including one created by the director of "Train to Busan."
Because of the almighty algorithm, it can be hard to filter through the many titles getting released on streaming every week, let alone know they even exist. That's what this guide is for, as we go through our top picks for what we're hoping are some of the...

It took a long time, but mainstream cartoons are finally coming out of the closet. Now, we can only hope they stay that way.
When live-action television began making inroads for gay representation during the turn of the century, animation remained a frustratingly straight (if frequently queer-coded) affair. The reasons behind the medium’s slowness were obvious and, predictably, homophobic. Animation is too often seen as content made for kids, and same-sex attraction is regarded as an “adult” topic. So, pearl-clutching TV critics would argue, children shouldn’t be exposed to “adult” (read: gay) characters through raunchy cartoons.
That’s not to say that there weren’t LGBTQ people in cartoons before the 2010s; Japanese anime, in particular, was slightly ahead of the curve on this front, with ’90s classics like “Sailor Moon” and “Neon Genesis Evangelion” featuring explicitly queer themes and love stories. But that content was often mercilessly...

There’s something magical about the magical girl anime. The genre that birthed beloved classics like Sailor Moon and Cardcaptor Sakura, and to which shows like The Powerpuff Girls owe their inspiration, the magical girl anime has always presented a different kind of hero than the “woman warrior” that is so prevalent in pop culture. Rather than a sword or a […]

The past decade has seen anime’s popularity increase in dramatic ways, whether through a much broader spectrum of series receiving dubs, the growing success of anime feature films in theaters, or the sudden prominence of streaming services. There’s never been a better time to be an anime fan and the medium has become more accessible than ever. There’s a lot of anime out there, but the wealth of new series can often blend together or not be given a fair chance. Additionally, there are definitely certain types of anime that are more prominently showcased outside of Japan.

Anime, or Japanese animation, has been popular in the western world for quite some time. In recent years, however, its appeal has become a lot more mainstream. Thanks in part to the success of films like Parasite, American audiences are becoming more accepting of and interested in content produced on the other side of the globe.
And, of course, wherever there’s a cultural shift, there’s a streamer to profit off of it. To be fair, Netflix has been interested in content from that side of the world for much longer than the Academy Awards have. In the past, they acquired hit shows like Seven Deadly Sins, and even allowed Will Smith’s son to create one of his own.

Picture this. It’s 2000. You’re sitting in your pajamas, munching on some waffles and waiting for Pokemon to come back from its commercial break on Kids WB. You’re hit with the usual ads for cereal, The Emperor’s New Groove, and X-Men Evolution.
Then, something different comes on. A promo for a show you’ve never heard of. A deep mysterious voice describes magical cards unleashing chaos on the world. You’re hit with quick cuts of a boy and girl fighting off magical creatures. You’re told by the oddly alluring narrator voice:
“Prepare for a quest unlike any you’ve seen before. Prepare for… Cardcaptors.”
You’re struck by it. The images. The sound. The voice. It feels different but familiar. You’ve seen some anime thanks to Pokemon and you can’t get enough of those trading cards so the phrase “Cardcaptor” sounds intriguing. You spend...

The streamer continues to claim that its set up to churn out content through the rest of the year despite the coronavirus pandemic freeze on TV and movie production.

It’s time to capture some Clow Cards on a mystic adventure! Netflix has just announced one of the most beloved magical girl series of all time is coming to the Us and Canada. Cardcaptor Sakura, the adorable tale of an elementary schooler who accidentally unleashes the magical Clow Cards on the world and has to recapture them with her own magic and fabulous outfits. Based on the manga of the same name, the original anime ran for 70 episodes between 1998 and 2000.
That anime was split into two arcs, which Netflix is now calling the “Clow Card” and “Sakura Card” arcs. Both of these will be part of the Netflix drop in the Us and Canada on June 1st. Also from the promo, which you can watch below, we know that the English dub of the series will be included.

Netflix has partnered with six Japanese anime creators as it doubles down on the genre.
The streamer has struck deals with Clamp (Cardcaptor Sakura), Shin Kibayashi (The Kindaichi Case Files), Yasuo Ohtagaki (Mobile Suit Gundam: Thunderbolt), Otsuichi (Goth), Tow Ubukata (Mardock Scramble) and Mari Yamazaki (Thermae Romae).
These creators are a mix of manga artists, novelists, screenwriters and filmmakers. They will develop new projects and Netflix will also explore ways to exploit these projects off-screen through publishing and consumer products
It comes after Netflix struck deals with five Japanese animation producers – Production I.G, bones, anima, David Production and Sublimation – last year.
Other anime projects in the works at Netflix include spin-off feature film The Witcher: Nightmare of the WolfandMasters of the Universe: Revelation, Kevin Smith’s upcoming series based on He-Man, Skeletor, Teela and the Masters of the Universe franchise voiced by Mark Hamill and Lena Headey.

I remember when the first Cardcaptor Sakura anime came to the Us in the 1990’s. It was a great show with fun characters and magic. What more could a kid ask for? Well, we’re getting a sequel series that sets the characters in middle school. This series will be called Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card Arc. The Sakura Cards have turned blank and lost all of their powers. Naturally, this means Sakura needs to go on a quest to get to the bottom of things. She won’t be alone though. She’ll have her guardians Cerberus and Yue along with her friends! The series is slated for release on January 7, 2018, in Japan and will feature the original cast. Are you excited to hang out with Sakura and the gang again? Check out the promotional art below.

New Manga adaptation One-Punch Man gleefully celebrates and subverts the anime genre. Here's why it's well worth your time...
Anime may have developed a loyal and feverish following outside of Japan since the dawn of high-speed internet but in reality, fans will likely always have to contend with looks of bemused, quiet judgement when their grandparents ask why they’re watching “those funny Asian cartoons again”.
Now and then however, a series will come along with crossover, mainstream appeal that seeps into western pop culture and introduces a new generation of viewers to the world of anime and manga. Dragonball Z, Sailor Moon and Pokémon all found homes on international T.V. Channels, and even casual television watchers are likely familiar with at least one of those franchises, if only because of the “it’s over 9000!” meme. Likewise, it’s no coincidence that Hollywood is currently in...

“Mike, you’re in a room. There’s a cauliflower on the floor.”
Children aren’t very good at improv. That’s why there were never any on Whose Line Is It Anyway.
Basing Citv adventure game Knightmare around the improvised encounters of a temporarily blinded child guided on a parlous quest by three friends with a shaky grasp on the precise qualities that distinguish left from right, then, was a risky approach. You just couldn’t rely on early nineties kids to pull their weight in Knightmare’s improv scenes. It turns out a diet of Willy Wonka’s Dweebs and Vanilla Ice lyrics isn’t conducive to thinking on your feet.
That meant the weight of responsibility fell on the shoulders of Knightmare’s recurring actors.
