February 25, 2017 marks the 30th anniversary of
Bubblegum Crisis’ original release in Japan! So to
celebrate, I’ve invited Sean of Zimmerit.moe to talk all about it:
the many western influences that inspired it, why it’s label of
“cyberpunk” is a bit of a misnomer, and how some aspects of it were
surprisingly progressive for an 80s OAV.
