Vampire Hunter D (1985)

In the early days of anime OVAs, a movie based on one of Hideyuki Kikuchi's novel series released, and 35 years later we watched it. Both anime and OVAs have changed a lot since then - how does this early production, which pushed the violence and sexuality farther than it could if it were made to air on television, hold up in the year 2020? Also, since we're in the midst of our Halloween Spookaloo, how spooky is this thing? And finally, has an ending song ever slapped as hard as the one in this movie? Probably not. For the answers to the other questions, you'll have to give the episode a listen! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/howsitholdup/support
