Où regarder Lensman
- Richard12 octobre 2025This one’s pure retro space opera, big ships, bigger hair and a plot that feels like Star Wars filtered through a Japanese arcade cabinet. Based loosely on E.E. “Doc” Smith’s pulp sci-fi novels, Lensman follows farm boy Kimball Kinnison as he inherits a mysterious Lens and gets swept into a galactic war against the Boskone Empire. It’s classic “chosen one” stuff, but with anime flair. The visuals are a time capsule: early CG meets hand drawn animation, with psychedelic lightning, disco planets and alien dragons. Worsel, the flying green lizard Lensman, steals every scene he’s in. And DJ Bill? Peak 80s weirdness. The soundtrack slaps in that synth-rock way only 1984 could deliver. It’s not deep, Kim is about as vanilla as protagonists get and the plot’s a bit of a blur,but it’s fun. If you saw this on Sky Channel back in the day, chances are it stuck with you. It’s messy, earnest and full of charm. A cult gem for fans of vintage anime and space pulp.
