À propos de ce contenu audio

This week on Bento Radio, I take a deep dive into Inu-Oh — the electrifying historical rock opera from Science SARU.


Set in 14th-century Japan after the fall of the Heike clan, Inu-Oh follows two outcasts — a blind biwa player and a physically deformed Noh performer — who transform forgotten war stories into explosive, rebellious stage performances. But beneath the glam-rock spectacle and surreal animation lies something sharper: a story about disability, censorship, power, and who gets to control cultural memory.


In this episode, I explore:


  • How the film reimagines traditional Noh theater as counterculture
  • The role of disability and “otherness” in medieval Japanese society
  • Why the shogunate fears art that inspires people
  • The tension between state-approved narratives and buried history
  • And why this movie feels even more relevant today


Inu-Oh isn’t just visually stunning — it’s a meditation on art as resistance. And while its final act hits hard emotionally, its themes linger long after the music fades.
