The visual cuisine for this Monday night is the Project Ako 1 developer commentary with the director followed by more Battlebots.

Project Ako is a legendary anime about a super-powered girl, her longtime friend, and a rich, mechanically-inclined, jealous rival. It is a very good anime but, unfortunately at times, still an anime. We will be watching with the audio and subtitles from the developer commentary with the director this time.

After that will be more Battlebots due to popular demand - episodes 3-6 of season 1, it's a show about people making robots that fight in an arena, it is based off the season 2 My Life as a Teenage Robot episode "Robot Riot."

Battlebots:

I couldn't find a specific content warning list for the early Battlebot episodes, however it doesn't seem like there's anything extreme in them.

• Makeshift robots fight each other in an arena
• Mild profanity
• Reference to alcohol

Project Ako:

• “Man in a dress” jokes. The aliens look like men who dress as women. The characters barely acknowledge this fact directly, but the depiction is still problematic.
• Bugs.
• Stalking.
• Mention of sexual assault (but no depiction).
• Someone struggles to breathe.
• Kidnapping.
• Bath scene.
• Flashing lights.
• Plane crash.
• Gun violence.
