Arcane season 2

A new poster has also surfaced, showcasing a dynamic shift in Vi and Jinx's relationship dynamics.

Beastars season 3


Scheduled for a premiere in 2024, Beastars season 3 will only be available on Netflix for streaming. This year, the anime series Beastars dealing with anthropomorphized animals will end. The show is about the increasing disagreements between plant eaters and carnivores with the chromatic wolf Legoshi focusing on him alongside a complexly connected rabbit Haru at Cherryton.

Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War part 3





In 2024, Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War part 3 will be available on Hulu and Disney Plus for the viewer to stream. The well-known series of Bleach still goes on with the last arc currently in adaptation to give fans more of what they usually expect from it. Ichigo’s return as he fights against Yhwach, who is the emperor of Wandenreich among other things, is highlighted in this release named ‘The Conflict’. There is a first thrilling glance into the intense battles contained in the movie’s first trailer which was released during Jump Festa.

Blood of Zeus season 2


“Blood of Zeus season 2 asserts its epic saga on Netflix at present. The show picked up where it left off last season. In his quest for Zeus’s acceptance, Heron faces more hell on this Japanese myth-centric TV. So, this second season is a must-watch for Greek mythology enthusiasts.”
