About Sebastian Stoddard
Sebastian is a pop culture writer with a passion for research, especially when it comes to movies, anime, and games. He holds a Bachelor's degree in History and has written features, movie reviews, and video game reviews for Popzara and Anime News Network, and has appeared in Popzara's yearly Best, Worst, and Everything Else podcast episode for anime films, as well as other gaming related episodes. While he loves anime - his favorites being Tiger & Bunny, Berserk, Durarara!!, and Silver Spoon - he's a huge fan of anything horror. He loves the works of Junji Ito, films like Trick 'r Treat, Ravenous, Train to Busan, and The Lullaby, and digging around to find horror movies from all over the world to gain a better understanding of the genre.If he had to choose a highlight of his writing career so far, it would be seeing someone on Tumblr agree with his article about the portrayal of bullying in My Hero Academia. Sometimes, it's the little victories.
He also may or may not be a stack of tarantulas disguised as a human man...but that's classified information.
