Ep. 3: Idol Thoughts

from Applied Anime · host Applied Anime

This week, we tackle idol culture, both in real life and as represented in anime like Love Live!, Wake Up, Girls!, and Satoshi Kon's cinematic masterpiece, Perfect Blue. What makes idols so captivating? What positive impacts do they have on the world? What understated social issues might be lurking under the pristine surface? Join us to find out as Feiyon indulges in a little fangirling. SPOILER ALERT! In this episode, we spoil Kakegurui and Perfect Blue. Content Warning: Sexual assault, sexual harassment, stalking, murder, pedophilia, and psychological trauma.
