Gimmick Awards 2021 – Anime/Manga of the Year Podcast

Scanline Talks ·

2022/02/08

Welcome to Scanline Media's 2021 Gimmick Awards! We're starting off with a favorite of ours. We're paid anime critics (every time I say it it's surreal, but it's true!), and as you might expect that leads us to having strong opinions on anime. But of all the anime and manga we covered in 2021, what was the best? The Nominees Are: Akagi: The Genius That Descended Into Darkness Evangelion 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon A Time Moriarty The Patriot Yu-Gi-Oh! Serial Experiments Lain Dirty Pair March Comes In

Code Fairy Volume 3 Roundtable

Scanline Talks ·

2021/12/23

Now we bring things to a close. The curtains fall on the first single player Gundam game in years, with a conclusion that leaves us feeling a little mixed. Without a doubt, Code Fairy as a whole has been a great experience, and a game we'd both recommend. But it doesn't TOTALLY stick the landing, in ways that are a bit confusing. If you want to find us on Twitter, Jen is @jbu3 and Six is @sixdettmar.

Code Fairy Volume 2 Roundtable

Scanline Talks ·

2021/12/01

As it turns out, Volume 2 was so much of a banger that we wanted to make this a three parter after all. Alma's absence is our gain as this second part starts with a bang, giving us new mission types, new perspectives, and new mobile suits, only to reunite us with the lucky redheaded newtype for a thrilling conclusion. We'll be back for Volume 3, which I'm sure will end perfectly happily and nothing bad will happen. If you want to find us on Twitter, Jen is @jbu3 and Six is @sixdettmar.

Code Fairy Volume 1 Roundtable

Scanline Talks ·

2021/11/17

Jen and Six both have caught the fae fever! In the wake of Volume 1 of the episodic Mobile Suit Gundam Battle Operation Code Fairy, a single player Gundam story about an all-girls squad in the One Year War, the two simply had to convene to talk about. Whether we'll come back to talk about Volume 2, or just wait til the end to record again is unclear at this time, but we definitely want to talk more Code Fairy!

Metroid Dread Spoilercast

Scanline Talks ·

2021/10/20

After nearly two decades, Metroid Dread has arrived. Once little more than a rumor and an easter egg in a Metroid Prime scan, not only is it here, but we've had time to beat it, ponder it, and now assemble to talk about it. Six is joined by friend of the site Lee to discuss the latest Metroid game. You can find Lee on Twitter at @UnstableArk, and Six at @sixdettmar.

The Sword Number

Scanline Talks ·

2021/10/19

This is all Marth's fault. Smash used to be a good, wholesome game of classic Nintendo characters. Now it's all, waifu, sempai, uwu, nakama, airdash, triangle jump, fuzzy guard, yaoi paddle, BL, glomping... it's lost. It's all because of how many swords are in the game. ...Wait. How many swords are in the game? Let's figure that out.

The Goku Number

Scanline Talks ·

2021/10/06

A lot of text has been typed about how many Gokus are in Dragon Ball FighterZ. It's a lot, of that we can be certain. But there are different numbers generated, with different logic and methodology. Six and Kyrie are here to tell you the REAL skinny on "The Goku Number." Recorded live in person, so it's a LITTLE echo-y, but it's otherwise good sound quality.

CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of a fictional incestual relationship, non-graphic purely the relationship. Also we spoil Twelve Minutes. The Playlist podcast returns with a guest in tow! Our usual crew of Jen, Kyrie, and Six are joined by friend of the site Ryan on this bright evening. Ryan is VERY mad at Twelve Minutes, with good reason, but they and Jen have really been enjoying Psychonauts 2.

Just because it's a relatively quiet period doesn't mean there aren't new releases to talk about! Jen, Kyrie, and Six are here to talk about the classic mystery solving of Famicom Detective Club, Atlus's overpriced Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne rerelease, and the baffling nature of Miitopia.

Experts of the Taroverse, assemble! Six was originally booked to host this podcast, but as discussions proceeded in the buildup to recording, it became obvious that they were just not up to the task. Instead, friend of the site Ryan has graciously taken the wheel to guide a podcast on the Drakengard Legacy with Jen and Kat. Buckle in, they're going DEEP. If you want to find our hosts on Twitter, you can find Ryan at @bluestrose430, Jen at @jbu3, and Kat at @SimulationKat. Kat is also a streamer,

Draft Game – Defunct Series

Scanline Talks ·

2021/05/21

Sony has announced it has 25 new IP in development! This after they killed off their single most creative studio for CREATING new IP (Japan Studio), and we dread to think what they will release. So the heck with Sony. Let's draft our OWN game console lineups, using exclusively dead or defunct series. Draft game time!

The Monster Hunter Rise Roundtable

Scanline Talks ·

2021/04/07

Like a lot of Switch gamers, Jen, Kyrie, and Six have found themselves engrossed in the latest release from the popular but infamously unwelcoming Monster Hunter. They say Rise is "the easiest to get into yet." That's true! But that's actually a fairly meaningless statement, as the series has always been terrible to get into. How much better is this one, actually?

We decided to watch some Gaim! May the Fruits be with you as we delve into Urobuchi's try at tokusatsu. Dance tropes, fruit armor, and some very bizarre takes on what a "job" is. Welcome back to Kamen Ground, folks.

That’s a ShenMood – Shenmue 2

Scanline Talks ·

2021/02/01

With the first episode of That's a ShenMood, we claimed we'd play through the Shenmue series and talk about it throughout 2020. But, much like Ryo Hazuki, we quickly learned that the task we'd taken on was harder than we could have ever imagined. We also learned that Six has a powerful procrastinator streak. But finally, we return. Jen, Kyrie, and Six discuss Shenmue 2.

2021/01/30

Fun fact, this award category takes its name from a channel on our Discord devoted to the discussion of music, #thatsmyjam. Honestly, every year this is one of the hardest categories, as I find myself remembering music I should have nominated later and kicking myself.

We got waaaay more than our yearly dose of Yikes in gaming's 2020. And that's putting it lightly, honestly: some really awful shit happened in the gaming world. Obviously outside of it was hellish, but we're not really qualified to talk about the pandemic and politics and all that mess? We're gonna keep it a little more light-hearted, though still not super fun. Jen, Kyrie, and Six decide the Hottest Mess in games of 2020.
