AGP#147 – Happy Hells-oween

To celebrate the spooky season, Evan and our editor Patrick
Sutton review the 2008 action-comedy anime film Hells, which has
some incredible design and animation work but a whole lot of
story issues! Plus news about Anime NYC’s virtual event and
opinions on the Fall 2020 anime season and video games from the
distant past of 2001. Topics include: hypebeast anime cons,
rapping idol boys, and Wife Guy Adam.


Thank you to Patrick Sutton for editing this episode.
