Today's premieres on the Netflix platform are a true genre mix. Viewers can choose between a futuristic interpretation of Japanese folklore, an exciting drama about figure skating, and an uncompromising comedy about parenting in high society.
Cosmic Princess Kaguya!
Shingo Yamashita, the visionary behind the visual successes of Jujutsu Kaisen and Chainsaw Man, presents his feature film debut. “Cosmic Princess Kaguya!” is a modern tribute to the oldest Japanese fairy tale, transitioned into the reality of the virtual world Tsukuyomi.
The film is distinguished by its unique soundtrack, created by legendary Vocaloid producers such as ryo (supercell) and kz (livetune). The story focuses on the relationship between high school student Iroha and the mysterious Kaguya, who build a bond through music in a world where dreams become reality. This is a must-see for fans of dynamic 3D animation and emotional storytelling.
Finding Her Edge
For fans of young adult dramas, Netflix has prepared the series “Finding Her Edge”. The production tells the story of three Russo sisters who are fighting to save their family legacy – a declining ice rink.
The main protagonist, seventeen-year-old Adriana, faces a dual challenge. On one hand, she is training for the World Championships with her new partner, Brayden, with whom she must pretend to be in a relationship to attract sponsors. On the other hand, she still cannot forget her first love. The series combines sports competition with difficult life choices and a financial struggle for survival.
Free Bert
The third proposal is the comedy series “Free Bert”, featuring popular comedian Bert Kreischer in the lead role. Known for his “eternal party-goer” lifestyle, Bert must face the greatest challenge of his career – entering the elite world of Beverly Hills.
When his daughters get into a prestigious private school, Bert is forced to abandon his image as a shirtless guy in favour of a suit and impeccable manners. The clash between his wild nature and the rigid rules of the upper class generates a cascade of comedic situations, calling into question whether the Russo family can survive in this new, luxurious environment.
