Is it the winter mid-season already? Well, this season is anything but mid! Cain, Kestrel, Brandon, and Kate catch up on what they’ve been watching and we get some last minute input from DJ as well. Find out who is thinking outside the penalty box, who’s a Trigun Stan-pede, and Thorkell’s live reactions to Vinland Saga Season 2. Plus licensing news, sad news, happy news... all the news! And recommendations! You know, the usual!
This week on the podcast our good friend and cohost Bryce rejoins us for talk on Harmony Gold's implosion (and the toys it may bring), Voltron, and how the season has opened for each of our hosts! Also: Ideas on what Elias (and Cain's obsession with his lack of lips) may or may not be in Ancient Magus Bride
This week, our hosts discuss company whiffleball games, some news from Comic-Con, and thoughts on this newest season of shows! Kestrel and Cain even agree for once!
The 2024 Winter Anime season has come to a close. If you’ve been paying attention then you’ll know what shows the crew have placed at the top of their lists. Kestrel, Cain, Brandon, and Kate are gonna tell you again, anyway, because that’s what we do! Plus some news and recommendations. What was your favorite anime of Winter 2024?
We have a full house for a rather depressing episode of the podcast. It’s an all-news special cumulating in the marking of the passing of two figures, one lesser known and one an absolute giant. We tip our hats to Tales Of illustrator Mutsumi Inomata before we dedicate the majority of the run time to Akira Toriyama. We go over the impact that Toriyama had in the manga, anime, and video game industry both at home and across the entire world. Then we try to brighten the room a bit with some recommendations.
The groundhog didn’t see his shadow, and for a brief moment this episode features all of the regular podcasters! The winter season is in full swing so we catch up on impressions of the current slate of shows. We check in on our favorite girls, Maomao and Frieren. I (Kate) am ready to throw hands in support of Dungeon Meshi. Kestrel is about to flee the country. DJ flees the podcast. Cain and Brandon try to hold everything together. Plus news, weird localizer beef, and recommendations.
Winter 2024 Anime! It’s a season of.... isekai... and isekai... and Dungeons! Cain, Kestrel, Brandon, and Kate are gonna talk about it! Delicious is Dungeon, Solo Leveling, Metallic Rouge, BUCCHIGIRI?! and much, much more! Plus, what Chris and DJ are watching via words on paper... but read out loud. PLUS, some SHOCKING news and recommendations.
As is tradition, the votes have been tabulated and a consensus has been reached! If you are like DJ and hid under an anime rock for most of 2023, then this is the episode for you! Kestrel, Cain, Brandon, and DJ break down their top ten lists of anime from the 2023 anime year. PLUS, we have reader-submitted lists and even a list from our fearless leader, Chris Beveridge (spoiler, it’s both exactly and not exactly what you’d expect.) Settle in for a long one, and thank you for listening!
The Holidays are here but we have time for one last newscast before the season and year wrap up! And that news is one whopper of an announcement that we spend the majority of this episode discussing. That’s how crazy it is! Plus a few last minute gift ideas for yourself or a loved one. Have a safe and happy Holiday everyone!
We might be short on people this week, but we aren’t short on discussion! Cain, Kestrel, and Kate are here to talk about this season’s shows now that we’re a few more episodes in. Spoiler: It’s a pretty great season of anime. Plus we have some recommendations and the news. Remember when Crunchyroll had manga? Yeah, me neither.
STOP THE PRESSES! DJ is HERE! So is everyone else. The Fall 2023 anime season is so stacked that we barely scratch the surface of what is out there, but we think we’re hitting most of the bangers. Frieren, Pluto, Spy x Family, 100 Girlfriends, Apothecary Diaries, and more! Plus we have the usual news and recommendations. What are you watching this season?
Fall is here but we have to wrap up these summer shows before we can dig into the early entries for the fall anime course. Kestrel, Cain, and Kate have a ton of news to run through including the end of Right Stuf because we can’t have nice things. DJ sends us his regards from his mansion by way of list of what he’s been watching. Plus we have recommendations.
WE ARE checking out the live-action One Piece! Years in the making, did this series do the impossible and break the live-action to anime curse? Kestrel, Brandon, Skyler, and Kate bring their collective decades of fan knowledge to the table to break down what we liked, what we didn’t like, and where everything can go from here. We front-load the podcast with the non-spoilery bits so you can take the plunge regardless of your exposure levels.
The sleepy days of summer are drawing to a close. Kestrel, Kate, Cain, and Brandon are on board. We have a tiny bit of catching up to do with the summer season news and shows, but our focus is starting to shift towards thoughts of fall. We cover some of the news that came out over the last month before catching up on what folks are watching. Plus some recommendations on what we’ve been playing. But... as you well know, the pirates are coming.
The summer doldrums have arrived, and with it a slew of shows which are mostly sequels or otherwise known entities. Cain, Kestrel, and Brandon tackle what they have been watching while pondering the list DJ submitted and the glut of average or below-average scores. It is a thin buffet table folks. HOWEVER, we have a ton of news to cover from recent announcements, some One Piece LA talk, and of course a few recommendations.
How big is too big? Well, Kestrel, Skyler, and Darius might have the answer for that as they get together for a massive recap of Anime Expo 2023. From reports of the conditions of the venue to the panels, wild announcements, and just the general vibe, they have a lot of ground to cover. Battle scars and all.
One final check of the Spring 2023 season is at hand. We wrap up the season with some final thoughts on all the bangers and ponder the mystery of how taste works. Be prepared for more Vinland Saga, Oshi no Ko, Demon Slayer, Hell’s Paradise, and the rest. Plus we cover some of the news and recommendations, which are heavy on the games this time around.
Ah, Summer is just around the corner but we are checking in with the Spring season of anime to see how things are shaking out. That means we get to dive back into Gundam: Witch from Mercury, Vinland Saga, Hell’s Paradise, Skip & Loafer, and more! Plus news and recommendations! Also, I (the engineer) put in timestamps now so you can skip discussions of shows you’re behind on! See, always room to learn!
Ahoy! It’s a list episode, and this time it’s Kestrel, Cain, DJ, and Darius breaking down their and your favorite anime studios! Who do we love? Animators! Who puts their blood sweat and tears into every production to make us smile and cry? We shall tell you! There’s a whole lot of love an appreciation to spread around as the guys make their cases for their favorites. Who comes out on top? You’ll have to listen to find out!
SPRING! It’s HERE! The usual gang of five arrives to discuss all things anime airing (well, streaming really) to your watching device of choice! Oshi no Ko, Mashle, Gundam, Hell’s Paradise, Skip and Loafer, and more! So much more! Which is good because we’re light on news this week but there are a few recommendations. Plus you get to find out what the hardtack version of a whoopie pie is!
