This week on Bento Radio, Alex takes a look at Dead Account, a supernatural battle shonen built around haunted social media accounts, digital ghosts, and internet culture. While the premise is surprisingly interesting, the series struggles under the weight of its influences.
The episode explores how modern shonen evolved from Dragon Ball to Hunter x Hunter, Naruto, and Jujutsu Kaisen, and examines where Dead Account fits into that lineage. Along the way, Alex discusses anime’s relationship with technology, social media, and why borrowing great ideas isn’t enough if you don’t understand what made them work in the first place.
A deep dive into one of the most fascinating misses in recent anime.
