"Yasuke" takes place in war-torn feudal Japan. The greatest ronin ever known, Yasuke, struggles to maintain a peaceful existence after a past life of violence.

But when a local village becomes the center of social upheaval between warring daimyo, Yasuke must take up his sword and transport a mysterious child who is the target of dark forces and bloodthirsty warlords.

Netflix also dropped a teaser for "Eden," a sci-fi anime set thousands of years into the future where the world is run by Artificially Intelligent robots.

 

On a routine assignment, within the depths of the city called Eden, two maintenance robots accidentally awaken a human baby girl from stasis questioning all they were taught to believe — that humans were nothing more than a forbidden ancient myth. Together, the two robots secretly raise the child in a safe haven outside Eden.

"Yasuke" is premiering on April 29, while "Eden" is set to premiere on May 27. —JCB, GMA News
