For this edition of Saturday Anime Night, we’re finally returning to the much-beloved anime adaptation of Hirohiko Araki’s legendary manga, Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, with episodes 1 through 6 of the fourth part, Diamond Is Unbreakable (2016). Expect a whole bunch of muscley guys doing silly poses while fighting other muscley guys.

After that is Lucky and Zorba (1998), an Italian animated buddy film about a cat who agrees to a seagull mother’s dying wish to take care of her baby. He must learn how to take care of the little bird and teach it how to fly, all the while resisting his natural carnivoran instincts to eat it. This is considered the magnum opus of animator Enzo D’Alo, and arguably the best animation from Italy (though Allegro Non Troppo [1976] would be a contender there, too.) A whole generation o Italians seem to consider this a classic, so let’s check it out.

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