7 Solo Leveling Alternatives To Watch In 2026

I watched as Solo Leveling unexpectedly became a huge anime hit in 2024. It really made me think that fans like us should be willing to check out some of the newer shows coming out this year. One that’s caught my eye is Jaadugar: A Witch in Mongolia.

In late April, Magic: The Gathering will release Secrets of Strixhaven, its second expansion set this year. This set returns players to the magical Strixhaven school on the plane of Arcavios, and promises to show more of the world beyond the school’s walls. Wizards of the Coast has previewed several strong cards from the main set, as well as the Commanders for the pre-constructed decks. But one new card reveal might be a particularly big surprise for both longtime and new players.

One Piece Finally Unveils A New Side Of Luffy’s Gear 5 In The Elbaf Arc

Luffy’s Gear 5 transformation has sparked a lot of debate among anime fans. Unlike his other popular forms, Gear 5 is quite controversial – some consider it the greatest transformation ever, while others find it too comical for the world of One Piece. However, creator Eiichiro Oda intended Gear 5 to capture the very spirit of his story. He doesn’t want One Piece to be overly serious and believes maintaining a lighthearted, playful tone is important, and Gear 5 perfectly reflects that vision.

Rumor: Star Wars Jedi 3 Details and Release Plans Leaked

The latest game in the series, Jedi: Survivor, came out in April 2023. While players and critics liked that it built upon the gameplay of the first game, Fallen Order, and offered a strong continuation of Cal Kestis’s story, the game suffered from technical problems for much of its first year. Despite these issues, it was a commercial success, selling over 600,000 copies in its first week and exceeding sales expectations for 2023 and 2024, according to Electronic Arts. Fans have been eager to learn when Respawn would announce the next installment, and current indications suggest a reveal is planned for May 2026.

Where to Find and Use Kopaa Nuts in Palia

Kopaa Nuts appear on medium and large Ancient Trees – look for the ones with purple leaves – and you can collect them by shooting an arrow at them. You can also find them on Infected Ancient Trees, but you’ll need to drink an Elderwood Potion or use the Bag of Illusion relic to get to them.

10 Strongest Fire Users in Shonen Anime

While fire-based characters aren’t always the strongest in their anime series – even among the most popular shows – they’re consistently powerful. Fans expect a lot from such a visually striking and aggressive ability, so any power that creates flames is usually among the best in its universe. The most skilled fire users, whether they’re good or evil, are always incredibly formidable opponents.

Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen Player With Over 85 Hours in the Game is Just Now Leaving Oak’s Lab

Finding a shiny starter Pokémon in FireRed and LeafGreen is really difficult compared to newer games. While shiny Pokémon usually appear in about 1 out of 4,096 encounters, your chances in these older games are halved – only 1 in 8,192. Plus, there aren’t any helpful techniques like the Masuda Method or Shiny Charm to improve your odds, meaning it’s always a 1 in 8,192 chance. That’s why a player getting a shiny starter after 85 hours of gameplay is such a remarkable achievement, even if it took a lot of luck!
