Dragon Ball Z Enters Politics With Recent U.S. Election

by

Even though North America’s big midterm elections aren’t until 2026, the primary elections are already happening. Nathan Johnson, a Democratic candidate for Attorney General, previously served as a Texas Senator. Surprisingly, before entering politics, Johnson worked as a music composer – and you might recognize his work on the popular anime series Dragon Ball Z. He created the soundtracks for the first 67 episodes of the Funimation dub, as well as several of the Dragon Ball Z movies, including The World’s Strongest, Tree of Might, Broly – Second Coming, Fusion Reborn, and Wrath of the Dragon. While Johnson hasn’t made an on-screen appearance in an anime, given his career path, it’s not entirely out of the question considering the history of the medium.

‘The Bride!’ Review: Jessie Buckley Breathes Life into a Monstrous Mess

by

Jessie Buckley’s powerful performance is the main reason this ambitious, though somewhat chaotic, film manages to work. While her character, the bride, represents the movie’s ideas more than a fully realized person, we root for her because of the intense anger she feels at being resurrected simply to satisfy a man. That man, Frankenstein’s monster, played brilliantly by Bale, is more relatable and evokes our sympathy through his clearer emotional journey. Though this unconventional couple doesn’t quite deliver the feminist statement the film aims for, director Gyllenhaal deserves praise for taking such a bold risk with creativity, especially at a time when most studios play it safe. Even if the film doesn’t fully succeed, the attempt is admirable.
