Fairy Tail, written and drawn by author Hiro Mashima, is a moderately popular shonen action series with a huge cast of colorful and fun characters, most of whom belong to wizard guilds. In Fairy Tail's fantasy world, magic is commonplace, and wizards of all kinds join formal guilds all over the nation of Fiore. That means when a new wizard guild is introduced, Fairy Tail viewers can expect to meet a handful of new characters all at once.

The story begins with the huge Fairy Tail guild, the most popular and renowned guild in Fiore, with its headquarters in the capital, Magnolia. That guild is where protagonist Lucy Heartfilia will find her future with her new family. During her many missions with her fellow Fairies, Lucy will meet a...

There are plenty of things that make Tite Kubo's hit series Bleach such a joy to read or watch, from the series' supernatural combat system and partial isekai elements to its great humor and, most of all, its delightful cast of characters. As a "Big Three" shonen title, Bleach boasts some legendary characters that are fondly remembered to this day, and the characters often play off each other in fascinating, humorous, dramatic and thematic ways.

The characters in Bleach can be categorized and sorted in a few ways, such as heroes vs. villains, their tribe, or even their world of origin since they come from not just one but four distinct realms. That helps make Bleach's cast more varied and colorful than ever, and they are a pleasure for new fans to meet.

It’s a Herculean effort to take a multi-volume manga like author Akihito Tsukushi’s “Made in Abyss,” adapt it into a popular anime television series, and then compress the show into a coherent feature, but the folks at Sentai Filmworks have done just that. Part one, “Made in Abyss: Journey’s Dawn,” will screen around the U.S. in its original Japanese on March 20 and in an English dub on March 25, to be followed at a later date by “Wandering Twilight,” which opened in Japan in January.

While the first half of director Masayuki Kojima’s cinematic cut-down hits more ebbs than flows, its character-driven escapades and colorful fantasy landscape are captivating enough to engage the uninitiated. Give or take a few tweaks to the material, this catchy premise about an adventurous tween girl and her amnesiac robot-boy companion exploring a mysterious chasm in her city adapts decently well...

I had no idea what to expect upon sitting down to Your Name and the first few minutes definitely had my head spinning. We’re ushered in via the voiceover narration of two high schoolers we’ve yet to properly meet in Mitsuha (Mone Kamishiraishi) and Taki (Ryûnosuke Kamiki). They speak about dreams as a rare comet shoots across the blue sky. It’s cryptic, beautiful, and utterly fascinating—a subdued tone easing us in before a kinetic collage of vignettes without context replaces it, a Radwimps rock anthem blaring about love. This shift to music video interlude proves jarringly abrupt; its culmination marked by Mitsuha awakening from slumber a wonderful splash into the deep-end of this anime’s high concept romantic fantasy.

My disorientation continued because this girl didn’t seem herself. Without warning, logic, or exposition beyond those opening lines of esoteric prose, we suddenly realize the person...
