Should Goku Have Picked Cell For The Tournament Of Power Instead Of Frieza?
Dragon Ball Super's Tournament of Power is a grandiose battle royale between the strongest warriors across the multiverse where the cost of failure is erasure. There's tremendous pressure that's put on each member that Goku recruits to fight for Universe 7, especially when one of their best fighters, Buu, is no longer appeal to compete. In a desperate, last-ditch battle strategy, Goku turns to Frieza as an unexpected substitution. Frieza is certainly one of Dragon Ball's most popular villains that shares a lot of history with the heroes. However, one wonders if Cell would have made for a moe powerful and compelling teammate. Frieza's participation in the Tournament of Power has lasting ramifications for the rest of Dragon Ball Super, but the same could be true if Cell became a reluctant ally. Was Frieza's recruitment the right decision or would Dragon Ball Super have been better if Cell had entered the fray?

Most Powerful (But Least Known) Anime Character
There are too many powerful anime characters to list. Still, there are so many anime series that many fans might not even know some of the strongest characters of the genre. For example, Actagawa from Sabikui Bisco is a massively strong creature capable of some outstanding feats. Who do you think is the most powerful – but least known – anime character?

Favorite Under-the-Radar Anime Series
Like any other form of television or cinema, a small number of anime series seem to dominate the discourse. Of course, there are plenty of different anime series well-deserving of praise that slip through the cracks. My favorite under-the-radar anime is Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma. What's your favorite anime you think deserves more love/attention?

The Best Version of Goku in Dragon Ball History
Throughout the Dragon Ball franchise, Goku has appeared in multiple iterations. Out of all these different versions, the most exciting character is Goku Black from Dragon Ball Super. Goku Black’s aggression and threatening nature made him more interesting than simply “Evil Goku” and a genuinely menacing presence. What’s your favorite version of Goku?

Are You Excited for Netflix's One Piece Reboot?
I've always wanted to watch the infamous One Piece, as many shonen fans proclaim its greatness, but the sheer size of the original anime is undeniably daunting. With over 800 episodes, it's a commitment that's hard to justify for many, even for the most dedicated fans. That's why I'm incredibly excited about Netflix's upcoming reboot, The One Piece. It's a chance to get to experience the iconic adventure of Monkey D. Luffy and his Straw Hats with potentially improved pacing, animation quality, and a fresh perspective. Plus, with Netflix's resources, I have high hopes for a more faithful adaptation of the manga. I'm eager to see how they'll bring to life the vibrant world of One Piece with modern animation and hopefully a much higher budget. Who else is hyped for this new adventure?

Which Pokémon Would You Choose To Be Your Pikachu-Like Companion?
In Pokémon, it's clear that Ash and Pikachu share a bond like no other. The two are practically inseparable, embracing the joys and trials of daily life as a dynamic duo. Along with that, Pikachu is exceptionally strong, so the pair sees success against various Pokémon trainers over the course of their lengthy journey. As a self-proclaimed Dragon-Type trainer, I think I would have opted for an adorable Gible to eventually raise into a menacing Garchomp. That, or a Ralts to raise into a Gallade — the coolest pokemon design, without question. But, while typing that, I remembered how incredible Absol is. It's a nearly impossible decision, but what Pokémon would you choose?

Should Tolkien's The Silmarillion be Adapted into an Anime?
I've been a fan of the Lord of the Rings evert since I watched Peter Jackson's trilogy. Since then, I've continued to explore the Professor's world and have loved all the adaptations including Prime's Rings of Power. With the War of the Rohirrim on the horizon, it got me thinking about whether some of Tolkien's other works, like The Silmarillion should also be adapted in the anime medium. Anime gives creatives the ability to be as poetic visually and narratively to properly adapt the complex tale about the creation of Middle Earth. Heck, it could even take 800+ episodes to do so. Dig deeper into the lore and bring it to life, include epic battles, without the limitations that would be forever present if it were ever considered for live action. What do you think?

Is It Time For Super Saiyan 4 To Make A Return In Dragon Ball Super?
Dragon Ball GT still has a contentious reputation among the fandom, but its original Super Saiyan 4 transformation still receives a lot of love, especially in Dragon Ball video games. Super Saiyan 4 is considered by many to be non-canonical because of Dragon Ball Super's introduction of Super Saiyan God, Super Saiyan Blue, and beyond. Dragon Ball Super has gone on to embrace many character-specific transformations like Ultra Ego Vegeta, Gohan Beast, and Orange Piccolo. Is it time for Super Saiyan 4 to make a comeback in Dragon Ball Super with a character like Broly or even Gotenks or is it a transformation that's best left in the past?
Whos the strongest now?
I personally think Gohan is, but what do you think?

What were your favourite books from the New 52 (not Batman)
The New 52 is arguable DC's most hated era, but I think that there were at least a few good comics to come out of it. The obvious one is Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo's legendary Batman run, but I am also a big fan of Grant Morrison's Action Comics and Jeff Lemire's Animal Man. What are your favourite New 52 series beside Batman?
