Anime Motivation! Some Anime Quotes To Charge the...

2022/12/04

We all need motivation some times and so I chose some select anime quote that get me feeling pretty okay and just decided to read them out loud and talk about them! It's been a hard few weeks for us and the motivation to lead with your best foot forward can be so hard to find but hey! Some small sentiment of determination can be found in everything even anime! Just always try your best. I hope you have a great week. Thanks for supporting us and listening like you always do. It means a whole lot. As

I Think Maison Ikkoku and Rumiko Takahashi Are Neat

Otaku Melancholy ·

2022/11/27

It's another week of just me, myself, and I as hosts of the podcast so I really struggled to just come up with something to talk about but I've recently started reading Ranma 1/2 and thought to myself that I really really do like Rumiko Takahashi's manga especially Maison Ikkoku so I just went ahead and talked about it in a spoiler free discussion. Maybe you'll get something out of it and gather up the urge to read Maison Ikkoku yourself or maybe you'll just not do that and live your life. I think

2022/11/13

It might be kind of late to give some impressions but we're talking about the Fall 2022 seasonals that we're checking out anyways! Audrey is watching THREE WHOLE SHOWS! It's like a high score among high scores! We also talk about what we've been doing too. In case you care. I hope you care. I care about you. Friendly reminder that this is a mature podcast for mature people who are mature and do mature things so, you know, be wary. Like keep your guard up at all times. You never know when a mature

Are Light Novels Literature?

Otaku Melancholy ·

2022/11/06

It's a trashed episode that was turned into a Patreon exclusive that's been turned into a regular episode again! It's a wonderful butterfly of a piece of podcast content! We couldn't record this week but we had to have something so here's the something! Light novels are an ever looming threat (I think) to anime and must be treated with respect and dignity and sincere thoughtful consideration but it's just so hard when you're trying to read a book that is titled something like" The Results From When

A Con-versation: Anime Weekend Atlanta 2022

Otaku Melancholy ·

2022/11/01

This Atlanta sure has a lot of anime weekend, huh? I said AWA so much this weekend that it started to sound wrong and I had to doubt that I had a grasp of the English vernacular and language. One of us went to AWA and one of us had to talk about it so here it is! One of us talking about it for about forty minutes or so? Maybe thirty? Time is an illusion. Break free of the shackles of allowing time to dictate your life. Be anti-time. All thoughts and feelings about this convention are basically one

Watchlist Roulette: My Stepmom's Daughter is My Ex

Otaku Melancholy ·

2022/10/23

The wheel giveth and the wheel taketh. The wheel be taketh-ing an awful lot lately as we discuss the recently finished anime My Stepmom's Daughter is My Ex! It's not quite Domestic Girlfriend and it's not quite Scum's Wish either so what even is it? It's mid is what it is but you won't know that for sure unless you listen to this episode and get our opinions on it. Well, you could watch it yourself and make your own opinion or whatever but it's 2022! You don't have time for that. You only have time

Otaku Melancholy ·

2022/10/16

Visual novels! They exist and we play them. Sometimes. With the recent (well recent when we recorded this) rejection and then reacceptance of Chaos;Head Noah on Steam, we thought maybe we'd talk about that! What does this mean for the medium of visual novels in the west and what even is a visual novel? We break down most of that and more this week!

Watchlist Roulette: High School of the Dead

2022/10/03

"If the anime boobies be floppin' then you know the show is probably not gonna be rockin'" is the old saying and we're out to see if that's true with our review of High School of the Dead! Is this zombie show really a classic or is the universe collectively playing a game trick on everyone by making this one of the most popular anime out there? We dive into that question (but not for very long) and more all in another episode of our watchlist roulette reviews! As always, check out new episodes every

Growing Up With Anime: A Mild (Self) Discussion on...

2022/09/25

I'm not saying we have filler episodes or anything but this? It's kinda filler-ish. Filler-esque even. Audrey's on a personal break this week due to being a very good supportive partner so we couldn't cover High School of the Dead like we planned but we gotta put something out and OH NO it's Saturday so I decided I'd discuss a little bit about growing up with anime and all those mixed experiences but it's mostly kind of like therapy where you're the counselor, you know?

Tsuki ga Kirei

We get in touch with our romantic side in this week's episode as we discuss the coming of age middle school romance anime: Tsuki ga Kirei! One of us has a VERY high opinion of this series but does that actually mean anything when you haven't seen in it in three years? It doesn't. We break down our thoughts and feelings on young love and why it doesn't mean anything and how you'll probably never really find peace. We don't really but maybe! You'll have to listen in to find out, won't you? As always,

Well well well. If it isn't the consequences of our own actions. We've started doing a watchlist roulette and this anime was the result of our first spin of the watchlist wheel and... it's a show for sure. We're breaking down (some episodes of) The Requiem of the Rose King, a story that attempts to adapt some of Shakespeare's historical plays but removes all the boring history in favor of pretty boys being pretty and betrayals and schemes and all that political jazz. Did we enjoy what we watched

I know what we were doing. We were talking about a certain siscon anime until suddenly someone's computer didn't process their audio correctly and left us with half an audio file.

It's also basically going to be ONE month as we cover One Punch Man this week and some other show based off a manga of his (Mab Psychosis or something) during this month long celebration.

WHAT EVEN ARE DEADLINES I DON'T CARE THIS EPISODE CAME OUT ON TIME YOU CAN'T PROVE ME WRONG. Anime is a hobby in itself but it's a hobby that can create other hobbies as you watch other people do hobbies that make you think "man I wish I had another hobby that was like the hobby that these hobbyists are currently hobbying on about in this hobby anime" and thus you pursue that other hobby from your very own hobby of watching anime. I typed out hobby so many times that it looks like I spelled it

My audio sounds off cause we had to use the Discord Craig's recording of my audio so it's not going to sound super fantastic but it could be nonexistent! It's already late to release and all. The fresh spring breeze washes over the winter chill and delights us anew as the blooms of seasonal anime come forth in a rainbow of all sorts of colors and KAGUYA AND KOMI ARE BACK BAYBEE AND THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS HEYYYOOOOOOOOOO.
