This episode, we’re jumping into the mind of Fujimoto Tatsuki, creator of Chainsaw Man and Fire Punch, as we talk his latest animated outing – Look Back!
This 50-minute film is a beautiful semi-autobiographical tale of two young girls who bond over manga, showcasing the mangaka journey and the struggles it entails!
This film doesn’t pull its punches and showcases Fujimoto’s ability to write and draw complex characters and emotions with some incredibly unique scenes.
All this, plus a flood of anime news, manga recommendations - and a LOT of tangents for some reason!
