Oldtaku no Radio # 039 – Patlabor (OVAs)

Wednesday, December 25, 2019

It's time again for Anime Secret Santa, and a certain special someone left us one heck of a present to unpack: Patlabor! While we were given the OVAs and movies to review, we had more than enough to talk about with just the OVAs, so we'll get around to the movies on a bonus episode or three. We talk about the OVAs as a collection in general and then get into specifics about each of the six OVAs (counting the two-parter as a single OVA), and the results, knowing the inclinations of the two hosts, may surprise you! Happy holidays to all, and a special thanks to our secret Santa.

Stream the Patlabor OVAs on HIDIVE.
Buy the whole shebang via Sentai or Rightstuff or Amazon.
