Saved you a click, it's Blue-Eyed Samurai.

Holy shit I hate modern journalism. Three blocks of SEO-babbling barely coherent text to get to what should've been in the title.

Netflix has just renewed one of its best new shows of the year – a month after quietly adding it to the service.

The streaming service releases a bunch of new movies and TV series each month, many of which have been heavily promoted. However, there are also plenty of projects that arrive without much fanfare that end up becoming sleeper hits.

One such series – Blue Eye Samurai – was released on 3 November. The animated series is a French-American production from husband and wife duo Michael Green and Amber Noizumi

And it's not even anything close to a "hidden gem".

It barely just came out and I saw plenty of headlines praising it.

That too. I'm of the firm belief that there should be a ten year incubation period before anyone can call something a "hidden gem." Twenty years if it's a film

If you haven't already watch Invincibles as well.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Yep, already got it but haven't watched it.

I think the last similar one I watched was Little Demon which was great.

Shadow and Bone was cancelled? Whelp, back to “fuck Netflix” for me. I should learn to not watch new shows until they have a planned final season.

The books were better anyway, if that helps at all

Thank you, it does, I’ll happily look them up. I’ve only seen season 1 so far, at least I have that initial fairly awesome Sun Summoner reveal to carry into the reading.
