472. Tokyo Godfathers (2003) — The Eyecatch

Baby magic, trauma onions, and snow problems, oh my! Shaun Duke and Brandon O’Brien join forces with the one and only John Wiswell for a delightful discussion about Tokyo Godfathers! This is our first ever Holiday Special for The Eyecatch, our anime-focused subcast. Together, our crew talk about the film’s treatment of homelessness, trauma, and gender identity, Satoshi Kon and Keiko Nobumoto’s approach to comedy, subtle magic and the “holiday spirit,” and so much more! Thanks for listening. We hope you enjoy the episode! P.S.: Thanks so much to Trish Matson for editing this episode! We appreciate you so VERY much!
