Welcome to the eternal battle to save the world, and all the worlds in the multiverses for that matter, currently on-going inside the Justice League! SPOILERS AHEAD!
The previous seasons battles have left some serious scars on everyone, and the League is feeling it more than most. Here at headquarters, a giant meeting has been called to take stock after the war with the Reach, and to discuss new and on-going threats to the League and the worlds.
Many of our more –cough- experienced –cough- heroes are broken, and since retirement doesn’t really seem like an option, everyone’s favorite cynical brooder suggests on disbanding the League entirely. Batman never did do entirely well in a large group. And so, rather than attempting to disband the League across several different dimensions and universes, Bats and Green Arrow and some others tender their resignation, while the kids and teenagers look on in horror.
Meanwhile elsewhere, Dick Grayson has long since gone off to do his own thing as Nightwing, and is currently investigating the happenings of a metahuman trafficking ring supposedly operating out of the kingdom of Markovia. The line of succession for Markovia has lots of problems, with an ambitious head of security uncle, a pair of fraternal twins next in line to lead the throne, and a King and Queen who have no intention of encouraging a war on their soil. Of course, right after announcing that Markovia would give refuge to those who need it and pledging resources to stop the metahuman trafficking ring, the King and Queen of Markovia are promptly assassinated.
Superboy Conner is off with Megara, the two of them happily planning a wedding, when Dick shows up looking to recruit Conner for what he swears is a one-time mission. He promises the same thing to a broken-powered Black Lightning, who reluctantly shows up despite his claims to be done with the whole thing, makes a visit to recruit either Red Arrow or Cheshire or both, and a woman he calls Tigress comes through the portal for a new team gathering. The episode ends with Oracle in Dick’s ear, eternally planning for the next mission.

Bonjour sweet love patisserie review
Rating: 7/10
Platform Crunchyroll
Bonjour Sweet Love Patisserie is a delightful treat for fans of romance and cooking anime. Set in the prestigious Fleurir Confectionary Academy, the story follows Sayuri Haruno, a kind-hearted girl who enrolls in the school’s special confectionery course. Surrounded by handsome male instructors and fellow students, Sayuri navigates the world of baking while developing sweet friendships and potential romances.
The anime shines in its charming character interactions, light-hearted humor, and visually appealing desserts that are sure to make your mouth water. However, with episodes running around five minutes each, the series sometimes feels a bit rushed. The plot, while enjoyable, is fairly predictable, sticking closely to typical reverse harem tropes. That said, its short length makes it a perfect watch for those looking for a quick and sweet anime fix.
While Bonjour Sweet Love Patisserie may not break new ground in the genre, it does what it sets out to do well: offering a sugary escape into a world of love, pastries, and heartwarming moments.
