Jigen vs. a hitman. Goemon vs. an axe-maniac. Fujiko vs. a killer. The Lupin OVA series spotlights the whole crew in a much gorier, adult-focused story. www.geeknative.com/2...

Just watched Labyrinth. It's one of the most bizarre "alternative isekai" films out there. It comes at you with such force you don't have time to ask if it's working. www.geeknative.com/2...

The Last Blossom isn't just a gangster story. It's a sharp look at 1980s Japan, a vanishing Tokyo skyline, and a heartfelt exploration of what truly matters in life. #scotlandlovesanime www.geeknative.com/2...

The lead in Golgo 13 was described as a mix of James Bond and a Samurai. The film certainly leans into the worst parts of both, with a brutal story and a questionable depiction of women. #sla2025 www.geeknative.com/2...
