The Anime Nostalgia Podcast - ep 92: Unico in the Island of Magic
Subscribers! Be sure to go to the blog to read the description easier & check out links for this episode!
Happy Spooky Season! This month, just in time for Halloween, I'm talking all about the cute and slightly terrifying Children's Horror anime film, Unico in the Island of Magic! And to join me to talk all about this kinda creepy classic based on the work of legendary Osamu Tezuka is Gigi from the Dub Talk Podcast! Listen as we discuss how Unico might have traumatized us a bit as kids, why we think the dub of it is so good, and why we think this is a great unconventional viewing choice for the Halloween season, even if you're not normally a fan of scary stuff! But don't worry, we don't just focus on the spooky stuff--there's plenty of fun to be had, too, as this episode also includes: Yoshiaki Kawajiri talk, our frustrations on lack of cute Unico merch in America, and poorly done voice impressions! Trick or Treat!!
