The Expanse- Very grounded scifi with an amazing cast.

HBO's Rome- The reason men can't stop thinking about ancient Rome

Ranking of Kings- Anime that looks cute and wholesome but has surprisingly mature storytelling and compelling characters.

I love Ranking of Kings. The art style really threw me off but I stuck with it. I appreciate how everyone has their own stories and motivations and all of the characters that enter the stage where you say "well that person is clearly the bad guy" becomes someone you understand and even admire later. The theme of the show is definitely that things aren't always what they seem, so err on the side of kindness. It's a good lesson.

I thought the reason men can't stop thinking about Rome is because the crimes of Rome are the foundation of all Western Evil

Nah, it's because in Rome men wore skirts. Same reason why all men support the independence of Scotland. Gotta make tartan kilts mainstream again.

I think togas are a kind of dress but fair enough because they also wore skirts.
