Orb: On the Movements of the Earth, which aired in 2024 through early 2025, is one of the most impactful series to be released in years. It poignantly addresses themes like opposition to authoritarianism and the pursuit of truth in a wa...

As anime series go, it’s hard to come up with another one as snuggly as 2018’s Hakumei and Mikochi. Based on the manga by Takuto Kashiki, the show has only twelve episodes, based on the first six volumes. Design-wise the series is stunning to look at, from the warm interiors to the bustling markets of their nearby city, Makinata, to the wide mountain vistas surrounding them, with a beautiful accompanying soundt...

One could either scour their local video store (or be enough in the know to swap VHS fansubs), or have some access to cable and satellite TV. For that second group, the prime choice for fans in the late 90s or early 2000s was Cartoon Network’s Toonami, and later on, Adult Swim programming blocks. However, there was one anime block...
