I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TUMBLR DOES

Yeah, there’s no way of getting away from this - the villain is a stereotyped evil Japanese spymaster played byt a white man in what I can only describe as Yellowface. Daka would be a great villain if he wasn’t so painful to watch. Working for his Government in trying to beat the Americans by way of Radium guns and zombie mind control devices, he operates out of a building in Gotham’s Little Tokyo, currently empty because all residents have been shipped off to internment camps. It isn’t a pleasant thing to watch. Still, for a Batman, villain, Daca is suitably maniacal, with a hidden lair and mind control and goons and a pit with crocodiles in it. The very best thing of the entire serial is when he drops a box (containg Batma… OR DOES IT) on his crocodile’s head. We paused and rewound and watched it again and again.
