Blue Eye Samurai
On this episode of Good Pop, we check out Netflix's new adult animation series Blue Eye Samurai, following a mixed-race swordswoman on a quest for revenge to hunt down four White men hiding illegally in Edo period Japan, one of whom might just be her father. Featuring a star studded cast of Asian American voices, will that be enough to propel Blue Eye Samurai to good pop status?

Listen to Inheriting from LAist & NPR
"Inheriting" is a show about Asian American and Pacific Islander families, which explores how one event in history can ripple through generations. In doing so, the show seeks to break apart the AAPI monolith and tell a fuller story of these communities. In each episode, NPR’s Emily Kwong sits down with one family and facilitates deeply emotional conversations between their loved ones, exploring how their most personal, private moments are an integral part of history. Through these stories, we show how the past is personal and how to live with the legacies we’re constantly inheriting. New episodes premiere every Thursday.
