    In this episode of Den of Otaku, Den of Geek’s official anime and Japanese pop culture discussion series, we discuss the incomparable legacy of Akira Toriyama – the creator of Dragon Ball, Dr. Slump, Sand Land, and so much more – after his tragic passing. Den of Otaku also breaks down the subversive excitement of anime’s recent approach to the sentai and kaiju genres with Go! Go! Loser Ranger and Kaiju No. 8, two of the year’s biggest series that are emblematic of larger changes in anime. There’s also discussion on Warner Bros. Japan’s recent announcement of an increased anime production slate and what this could mean for the industry. We’ve also got new installments of Den of Otaku’s “Release The Hounds” and “The Big 3!”
