Description

The sisters of INAPC are back with anime on the brain. This time, they're delving into the new Netflix animated series Yasuke created by LeSean Thomas. The story of Yasuke is based on the African warrior of the same name who served under Oda Nobunaga during the Sengoku period in Japan. While Thomas's series takes place in an alternate history, facts and fiction are woven together to bring this sci-fi fantasy to life. With original music by Flying Lotus, Yasuke is a hero for every age, and he has the soundtrack to prove it.
