#240: The Weapons Tape
from Shonen Tapes
We go on a huge tangent from the usual format and talk about how weapons are handled in anime. In general, a show is either completely based on weapons (usually swords), or only has them sprinkled in. In general, it seems like ability-based feats are more revered than weapon-based anime - why is that? We tackle that today, as well as talk about the best ways different anime has utilized weapons and made them feel special. We list off some of our favorite ones, some lame ones, and get a bit of creative juices flowing while we try to picture what other weapons that could be more featured heavily in anime. This episode includes: Naruto, Bleach, Dragon Ball, Attack On Titan, Demon Slayer, Shield Hero, Sailor Moon, Gundam Wing, Jujutsu Kaisen, One Piece, Soul Eater, Rurouni Kenshin Links to everything HERE!
