Bram Stoker
Vampire Hunter D review – head-popping visuals offset very pre-MeToo erotic anime
Bram Stoker
Regarded as pioneering on its release in 1985, this sleazy tale’s sexual politics are long past-it, but the visual invention remains magnetic

Regarded as one of the first erotic anime and on rerelease for its 40th anniversary, this 1985 film doesn’t really draw on the gothic carnality of the Bram Stoker tradition. Instead, it goes to town on a sleazy peephole sexuality that now looks either quaint or distinctly stone-age, depending on your tolerance for aesthetic standards in anime’s red-light district. A miniskirted heroine kitted out like a cos playing bierkeller wench, Medusa-like succubi draining a bounty-hunter of his essence, one character fishing out one of the protagonist’s breasts mid-conversation a propos of nothing … #MeToo feels a very long way off.

Seriously underdressed to fight mutants in an apocalyptic wasteland, Doris Lang (voiced by Kaneto Shiozawa) is waylaid by Count Magnus Lee (Seizō Katō), who is intent on making her his bride.

One Piece: 5 Major Voice Actors Who Passed Away Proving Oda Can No Longer Drag the Story for Years
Image
There are very few stories in the entertainment industry that have stretched out as long as Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece, which started way back in 1997. The series has been going on for almost 30 years with the anime starting in 1999. However, even after going on for so long, it looks like the story will be dragged for a few more years before it reaches the finish line.

While fans are happy to get a continuous dose of One Piece, dragging the series for almost 30 years might not have worked so well for the creators. In fact, there are a few of them who have sadly passed away before even finding out the conclusion of the series. Most of these are voice actors who have offered their voices for the characters from One Piece.

Who Are the Roger Pirates in One Piece?
Image
This ariticle contains spoilers for the One Piece manga.

Gol D. Roger is the catalyst to One Piece's story. He's the first person in known history to reach the island at the end of the Grand Line. To do so, Roger gathered a talented crew who sought to turn the world upside down with him. Every member of the crew who's been featured in the story thus far has been exceptional in some way. The legacy of the Roger Pirates is something all of them carry, even if it's as much of a danger as a source of pride.

Unlike Monkey D. Luffy, Gol D. Roger had far more than 10 members on his crew. The Oro Jackson held 32 canon crewmates and 2 children on board. While most of these characters have names, only a few of them have come up in either the anime or manga thus far. All 4 of...

Anime Director Reveals the Gundam Show to Watch 'Even If You Haven't Seen the Other Gundam Series'
Image
The Mobile Suit Gundam franchise is now over 45 years old and has more than 60 anime shows and movies to its name. With so many series to choose from, it can be intimidating for a newcomer to break into the universe, but a Gundam episode director has now recommended one of the best places to start.

Originally created by director Yoshiyuki Tomino, the Gundam series has gained massive popularity all over the world, and it's become easily the most globally recognizable mecha anime franchise to date. One artist who worked under Tomino on Turn A Gundam has many good things to say, both about director Tomino himself and the series they worked on together. In a recent interview with Febri in honor of the 25th anniversary of Turn A Gundam, Masakazu Hishida, who worked on the anime as an assistant director and storyboarder, shared his experiences.
