For this edition of Saturday Anime Night, we’re returning to the much-beloved anime adaptation of Hirohiko Araki’s legendary manga, Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, with episodes 13 through 18 of the sixth part, Stone Ocean. This one stars a lady, but she still does the usual poses and fights a bunch of muscley guys in ever-more-convoluted ways.

Next is Rocks in My Pockets, an English-language Latvian darkly-comic surrealist piece about a woman’s journey through her own mind in Lativa from the 1920s through WW2, and the weird stuff she encounters in her headspace as history progress from the Depression, to the Nazi invasion, to her being locked up in a mental hospital after the war. It is, thus far, the best-known and best-regarded work of Latvian animator Signe Baumane. Great reviews for this one, so let’s give it a whirl.

We’ll start at 8PM EST on Blorptube, right here:
