Netflix’s Bold 2-Part Cyberpunk Show Is Set In One Of The Greatest Sci-Fi Universes Of All Time

Cyberpunk is having a moment on TV right now, but it’s been around for decades. Even before streaming services started making big, futuristic shows, classic anime and live-action series were building the groundwork for the genre we know today.

HBO’s 6-Part Fantasy Masterpiece Series Perfected Its Genre

Both Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon are excellent shows, but they focus more on dramatic, mature content than classic fantasy. Game of Thrones became popular largely due to its shocking and violent scenes.

Netflix’s 2-Part Fantasy Series Is So Good, It United A Split Fandom

Most live-action adaptations of anime have been unsuccessful. Even well-known franchises like Dragon Ball, Ghost in the Shell, and Death Note didn’t translate well to live-action.
