For this edition of Saturday Anime Night, the people demanded more Sailor Moon, and so, we’re continuing on, with episodes 163 through 168 of the 1992 series, the definitive magical-girl anime. This is the completely unabridged, unexpurgated, uncensored, Japanese version of the show, including everything that the English dub butchered, altered, and/or cut, which is quite a bit. Tonight’s episodes see the conclusion of the SuperS arc, after which Chibiusa goes back to her home planet, and Sailor Stars begins, with a brand-new theme song and a slew of new sailors. After that is Mad God (2021), a dark dystopian fantasy about an assassin who makes his way through a twisted underworld full of gnarly creatures that like killing each other in gory fashion. The film progresses in episodic fashion, conjuring various scenarios specifically designed to show off the skills of veteran stop-motion animator and director Phil Tippett, who did much of the puppeteering work on the original Star Wars trilogy, as well as the Robocop movies. He also directed, uhh, Starship Troopers 2 (2004). High praise for this one across the board, so let’s check it out.

We’ll start 8PM EST on Hextube right here: https://live.hexbear.net/c/movies
