With the recent success of #Oppenheimer it felt appropriate to choose Barefoot Gen for our first viewing. It is an important part of anime history discussing a major moment in Japanese history that should never be forgotten.
To make this VERY clear this is about the bombing of Hiroshima and isn't a light fluffy film, you may want to research ahead of time to get a handle on what you'll be watching.
I hope you'll tune in and live toot your viewing experiences using #Animedon! If you also enjoy horror films and want an epic double feature, keep an eye out for what #Monsterdon is watching that week too.
Follow #AnimedonAlert to make sure you don't miss future announcements. Now let's get the word out so we can connect us anime fans on the fediverse!
Hey y'all! The very first #Animedon is in just a few more days. Can't wait to watch this important and emotional film with you all!
@literalgrill Are these... anime...?
@literalgrill Well, I suppose Mario is a Nintendo franchise which is a Japanese company (although, not one which usually comes to mind, lol).
Ugh, I'm getting a feeling of deja vu for some reason.
I could suggest something but I'd have to know what sort of things you like.
