I finally got around to watching Batman Ninja and... OH MY GOODNESS, it was hilarious, ridiculous, over the top, epic, awesome, with exquisite artwork to look at... Just pure fun - perfect for a goofball who doesn’t take things too seriously. And the Japanese voice acting was great. Wataru Tagaki’s Joker especially was just magnificent! And the character himself... Flamboyant and flirty as ever <3 No matter the time or place, he always loves his Batsy :3
