My kids and I tend to give daft nicknames to the shows we watch together. Lately, my eldest son and I have endured suspiciously immortal director Ridley Scott’s latest androids’n’misery SF depression-fest Raised by Wolves. We refer to it as “Murderbots”, an apt, snappy title. Last season, my daughter and I watched Re:Zero Season 2, but referred to it as “Misery by Death”. After my failure to entice her to watch the final season of SNAFU with me (she referred to it as “that boring torture anime”) I have managed to interest her in “Pink-haired Lesbians.” Yes, it’s Revolutionary Girl Utena time.
