Sometimes it feels like they go out of their way to pick the dumbest possible weapons

20 years ago today, a Japanese cowboy fell from the sky and changed the lives of the Gals in Angel Hearts and everyone else in Shibuya

Singing her own theme song...unprecedented levels of aura

Fuck it, if WW3 is breaking out tonight, I'm not going out regretting I never posted Emiko Yamauchi's insane, psychedelic sex montage from Neon Jellyfish, punctuated with hilariously unnecessary innuendos. Great product placement for McDonald's here. 🗣️18+

not Cutie Honey making me cry

They say love the show they made, not the one you made in your head, and that's good advice, but I wish this was just a show about sisters doing wacky things like crashing weddings all the time instead of having so much lore and mythology. Still love them.

Italy missing a third straight World Cup?

For my money, the best action scene in the original anime

Have a couple extra posters from the Meiko Kaji retrospective if anyone is interested

Ive never been this close to a bona fide legend before, and after a 35 mm screening of Jailhouse 41 to boot. Something I’ll remember for the rest of my life #meikokaji

The legend will not be in attendance tonight, thanking the lord above that I decide to get a hotel so I can see the 2 Scorpion movies theyre showing tomorrow, where she should be in attendance 🤞 Gutted for anyone who is missing out

I'm ok with pretty much anything happening tonight, but Kokuho better win for Best Makeup and Hairstyling (and it is insane it also didn't get a nomination for Best Costume Design, to say nothing of Best International Film)

Imagine you and the boys have your tape measures out and you're about to beat up a couple of teen girls with them, then their bratty younger sister runs up with a yo-yo and demolishes you. I'd quite crime on the spot

If Chat GPT tells you to go to a Gal Café, run in the opposite direction

Things you could show in the 80s that you (thankfully) could never get away with now

I love this show so much because one week she could randomly be a French Queen and another week she could be a silent film star. Why not?

Man, this fucking sucks. Huge source for manga about to be turned into an AI slop factory. Seven Seas was by no means perfect, but this is so bleak. Support real translators and editors wherever possible www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/...

I didn't expect them to let this go on for 2 minutes, but a masterclass in tension building
