Yôjû toshi Ratings & Reviews
- Cubane2 kwietnia 2026What a surreal experience... Man something like this could only come from Japan. There is some really excellent animation and storytelling here, problem is it's bookended by uhh... hentai, on both ends, and in far greater quantity. The characters may have actually gotten more done if they had stopped banging for so much of the runtime.

- Richard3 sierpnia 2025I first saw Wicked City on an import VHS, and it felt like I’d stumbled onto something forbidden. Set in a noir soaked Tokyo, the film dives into the uneasy truce between the human world and the a parallel dimension full of grotesque, supernatural beings. It’s a wild blend of cyberpunk, supernatural thriller and noir, with mature themes that hit harder than most anime of its time. The creatures are imaginative and unsettling. It’s not for the faint of heart, there’s graphic content and some disturbing imagery that definitely pushed boundaries. Wicked City is raw, stylish and unapologetically adult. That import VHS felt like a secret portal into the darker corners of anime and I’ve never forgotten it.
