Warning Explicit!!! Joined by fellow anime fan and video game designer Jacob Clayman, and Mason attempt to deep dive or at least make some sort of sense out of "Dark Cat" the most obscure anime from 1991 that they could find. If you like horrendous dubs, nonsensical plots, borderline tentacle then this one is for you! Join us as we go deep into the past and take a look at an anime so hidden and forgotten and so bad that it made Japan's #1 movie distribution company go out of business! (Probably).
