Viewing Notes

This started either just before or just after midnight MT here, so I’m counting it for Sunday. Great to see a quick one hour KR movie show up as a kind of palette cleanser before getting into the overnight and progressively weirder stuff. I should have known by the look and feel of it that this was directed by Amemiya. Totally fits his style. I wonder if he did any/many episodes of the series as well?

I’ve seen plenty of KR stuff but not very many of the movies, so it was a treat to see ZO. Makes me want to track down episodes of this series.
