It’s all poppin’ off (mostly heads) in our first animated period drama: Princess Mononoke. Kim and Alice discuss the darker output of studio Ghibli, how the production approached the depiction of an indigenous culture with scant historical references, and whether they’d spit tree bark into each others’ mouths. This episode is brought to you by sake in a Friends mug and Ice Age 5.
