Patlabor: The Movie - Mecha Escapism Is Too Realistic

  • Summary

  • Can't have a podcast about anime without watching something heavy with giant robots in it. Eizouken is comissioned to create a "realistic" "giant fighting robot" (oxymoron). Patlabor does a tightrope walk between science fiction and practicality when suiting up their labor patrol force. And would have been by far the weirdest Lupin the Third movie. Yes, even weirder than Mystery of Mamo.
