For this edition of Saturday Anime Night, the people demanded more magical girls, and so, we’re going to start what is arguably the most acclaimed magical-girl anime of all time, Revoutionary Girl Utena (1997). Think Sailor Moon, but a bit more highbrow, and a bit more gay. Episodes 25 through 30 tonight.

After that is Felidae (1994), a gritty, R-rated German film-noir murder mystery. The twist is that it is animated and centers on talking cats. Someone has been going around the neighborhood and killing cats in horrifyingly grotesque ways, and one brave feline decides to investigate. Drama ensues, along with a whole lot of blood and gore. Many reviews compare this to Ralph Bakshi’s work. It is the magnum opus of German animator Michael Schaack, who is not known for much otherwise.

We’ll start 8PM EST on Hextube right here:
