KFR 145: KPOP Demon Hunters?

Is it anime? No. But is it animated and taking the world by storm? Very much so!

Kpop Demon Hunters might not fit our usual range of topics on this podcast, but the film is a great example of how media that is firmly grounded in its culture can take the world by storm when it's handled right!

It's a film produced by Sony's Spiderverse team (and all the baggage that comes with it), which has resulted in some typically anime style elements and art choices being used throughout the film!

All this, plus What We've been Watching and a bag full of anime news items!
