The Prince of Tennis: Echizen Ryoma 02

Source: Get News

A twelve-year-old tennis prodigy who won four consecutive Junior Tennis Tournaments in America, Echizen Ryoma is the son of Echizen Nanjiro, a former tennis pro nicknamed "Samurai Nanjiro". At his father's request, Ryoma returned to Japan in order to attend Seishun Academy, also known as "Seigaku", which is a private middle school famous for its tennis team. His arrogance often leads him to constant arguments with both his opponents and upperclassmen, but he is usually able to back up his statements with his tennis skills. Throughout the story, Ryoma continues to find and develop his own playing style and techniques instead of merely being a copy of his father.

This cosplayer's just adorable! And am I seeing things or is that Shinomori Aoshi from Rurouni Kenshin on the left? Thanks again to Lira for sending this in!

Will [Spoiler] Be the Big Bad for ‘Justice League’ Movie?

So, the Justice League movie. They don’t have a director, they don’t have a script, they don’t have any stars, but they have a release date, and now they have a villain too.

And could it be any more obvious…

Darkseid. It’s Darkseid!

So it’s the obvious choice, why? Because Darkseid is the biggest bad in the DC Universe. The god-like despot of the planet Apokolips, is always up to something that the Justice League, either individually or as a group, have to thwart. The character has appeared in several animated series over the years including Super Friends (voiced by Frank Welker), Superman and Justice League (voiced by Michael Ironside) and the recent direct-to-DVD animated flick Superman/Batman: Apocalypse (voiced by Andre Braugher).

So is this a case of counter-programming? Rumor has it that the mad titan Thanos will be the bad guy in The Avengers 2, which, oddly enough, comes out the same summer that Justice League is scheduled to come out during. And that means that once again Thanos and Darkseid will be facing off against one and other like they did in JLA/Avengers, the comic book crossover that brought the two super-teams together. And yes, only one will leave the arena (or box office) alive.

Presuming, of course, that Justice League finds a director, script and actors in time for a 2015 release date.

What do you Bastards have to say about this development? And while we’re at it, who could play a live-action Darkseid?
