Stain's Principle
In the rich tapestry of hero narratives within the realm of manga and anime, few characters have left as profound an impact as Stain, the enigmatic antagonist from Kohei Horikoshi's "My Hero Academia." Stain's principle, a belief system centered around the purification of heroism through the elimination of "fake" heroes, is a moral and philosophical cornerstone that challenges the very foundation of the hero society portrayed in the series. Despite his radical methods, Stain's unwavering respect for All Might, the symbol of peace, adds a layer of complexity to his character. This essay endeavors to dissect Stain's principle, exploring its ideological underpinnings, its implications within the world of "My Hero Academia," and the paradoxical nature of Stain's respect for All Might.

How To Get Into One Piece
In August, the One Piece Live Action dropped, quickly becoming the most-viewed show on Netflix at the time. I remember seeing in my YouTube recommended lists a lot of reviews from YouTubers who had never gotten into One Piece, who were watching the Live Action excitedly. I forced my ex-girlfriend to watch it, myself, and in turn she got her parents hooked. (Her dad’s favorite is Buggy. Everyone’s favorite is Buggy. Jeff Ward is a treasure. Jeff, if you’re reading this, I love you.) At around the same time, the YouTube channel “Dudes Talking Manga” started a series where one of the titular dudes read the One Piece manga for the first time in his life, reacting to it as the muse took him. One Piece is my favorite franchise; while I didn’t necessarily grow up with it, I did get into it when I was in my mid-teens, and it’s stuck with me this long.

Amazing, isn't it? Today, Family Guy celebrates 25 years. The date was Sunday, January 31, 1999. Super Bowl Sunday.

Avatar the Last Airbender
There are many things flying around the internet about Netflix’s live action Avatar the Last Airbender series. Fans of the original animated series have been holding out cautious hope for a while now and we have expectations. This is one of the most definitively perfect shows of all time and the choice to turn it into a live action after the execution of the film was a bold one. The series releases on the 22nd and fans are already pointing out the horrendous choices that the creatives have made. Perhaps the first mistake is the creatives opening their mouths about the unnecessary changes that they have decided to make. Perhaps the problem was choosing to make the series in the first place, either way we have things that NEED to happen in this show. Without them the show will fail and the fans will do everything in their power to make sure that it never gets a chance at a second season.
