Channel Surfing: Super Dragon Ball Heroes

If you’re on a withdrawal from Dragon Ball Super, especially after the release of the Broly movie in theatres, here is the chance to check out Super Dragon Ball Heroes!

Channel Surfing: Flowering Heart

The idea for this edition of Channel Surfing came as this: In a random quest to find Korean anime on YouTube at 3 AM, I came across this series called “Flowering Heart”. It’s probably what you think it is: a magical girl anime series–that tackles issues as such in 10 minutes every week.

Did you know that the original Mobile Suit Gundam anime was so popular that many sequels were produced due to popular demand from reruns on Japanese television, into the powerhouse that it is to this very day? It’s also popular enough to warrant a Gundam-inspired anime series developed in South Korea for Korean television, called Space Black Knight. While you could call it one of the very few Korean anime series to come out from the era, there is something off about this show…
