NEMO RISING (C. COURTNEY JOYNER)
NEMO RISING REVIEWED “Nemo Rising” is Jules Verne by way of good ol’ torture porn. But, it also plays like a Post Civil War era TOHO Kaiju movie. If you want to read about sailors being eaten alive and torn apart, you’ll enjoy the first half. If you want to see Nemo become a superhuman…

While not everyone wants to learn about anime history through the 1980s-1990s, this is a slice of history. It’s a look at when Eastern animation took over the West and what…
