About this listen

We've reached the end of the divisive anime trilogy with the even more divisive and maddening final entry -- a pure cosmic horror film where an extradimensional noncorporeal Ghidorah slaughters nearly everyone and gives Godzilla an hour-long hug. We talk about the Lovecraftian inspiration, this trilogy's horrendous treatment of women, the equally horrendous treatment of its human hero and the harmful message he leaves us with, and the ultimately squandered potential of these deeply mean-spirited movies.

Please note that there is a frank discussion of suicide and other dark topics at various points in this episode.
