With so many acclaimed anime films making their way to theaters in America over the years, surely at least that journey was a painless one, right? You'd think so, but you might be surprised to learn the truth! Host Yedoye Travis explores this very topic in the new episode of Crunchyroll's Anime in America podcast, featuring special guest Jerry Beck.
EPISODE 6: AT THE MOVIES… EVENTUALLY
Guest: Jerry Beck
Who would have guessed it was tough getting any store to pick up AKIRA or the arduous road to get a single Ghibli film to the states for it to be the only anime film to eventually win an Oscar.
The Anime in America series is available on crunchyroll.com, animeinamerica.com, and wherever you listen to podcasts.
