Episode 69: Is That Hideo Kojima?!

Under the Kotatsu ·

2023/12/27

We're back! After taking a break we're back to talk about... a J-drama, a visual novel, and a tokusatsu show? That's right! It's time for a special non-anime show and tell episode. We've got three very different things to share, from an endearing drama with a cute sci-fi premise, to a visual novel about queerness and devils, to a tokusatsu show about a certain purple robot who fights for justice. Anime Discussed: Show and Tell - Anime Ja Nai Edition Next time: Yuri on Ice

We finished Canaan! This show was an absolute train wreck by the end, but that didn't stop us from having a good time talking about just how much of a train wreck it was. Maybe you should play 428 Shibuya Scramble instead and skip this anime.

Episode 67: Come Get Your Borner Pills

2023/11/01

You know, we've been watching too many good things recently, so it's time for an absolute trash-fire with 2009's Canaan, a sequel to a bonus scenario in 2008's 428 Shibuya Scramble for the Nintendo Wii, and if that sounds like a poor basis for a show, you'd be right! Join us as we try to process one of the messiest shows we've watched to date. Anime Discussed: Canaan 1-7 Next time: Canaan 8-13 Send us your questions!

2023/10/07

In light of Discotek's recent blu-ray release of it, we're watching the 80s OVA classic Gunbuster! Austin and Danielle are already sold on this one, but Danny might need some more convincing with the second half of the show. Fortunately there's still plenty of cool things to talk about in these first three episodes like time dilation, training montages, and giant bug monsters!

Episode 63: Uh Oh, Stinky

Under the Kotatsu ·

2023/09/06

For his next pick, Danny had selected a duo of Masaaki Yuasa films for us to watch, starting with the 2017 film The Night Is Short, Walk On Girl. The vibes are good, and the animation is good, but is the awful male protagonist enough to sour all of that? Maybe! Listen to find out.

We finally close the book on Cowboy Bebop by watching the movie. Against all odds, we mostly managed to had an ok time with it, despite the fact that somehow all of the major problems we had with the TV series manage to show up in big and small ways throughout the movie. This movie truly is a microcosm of all of our thoughts about Cowboy Bebop as a whole.

Time for us to close the book on Bakemonogatari. It's been a rough ride, but fortunately we find at least a few things to like about Tsubasa Cat, the final arc of the series, though maybe it didn't need to be a full five episodes long. Join us for our final thoughts on the anime, many more thoughts about how the anime compares to the books, and our evolving opinions of Shaft as an anime studio.

Episode 60: Mick Garris Come on the Show!

2023/07/12

Time for two more arcs of Bakemonogatari, which means two new girls. We're still not having a great time with this show, but one of us has started to do their homework and read the novels which leaves us wondering: why is this such a bad adaptation? Anyway, Mick Garris if you're reading this please come on the show. Anime Discussed: Bakemonogatari 6-10 Next time: Bakemonogatari 11-15 Send us your questions!

New show! We're finally diving into the world of Nisio Issin, and also diving back into the world of Shaft Animation. The results are... mixed? Is this show kinda problematic? Yeah, but mostly it's just kinda boring. Regardless, we have a pretty good time digging into whatever's going on with this show.

We love to do two things on this podcast. Trash talk Cowboy Bebop and gush over Masaaki Yuasa. Well, we already did enough trash talking about Bebop when we started Space Dandy, so now it's finally time for us to gush about the one episode Yuasa did for this show. We also talk about 6 other episodes, I guess. Anime Discussed: Space Dandy 14-20 Next time: Space Dandy 21-26 Send us your questions!

Ever since we started this podcast we've been threatening to watch Space Dandy (mostly because our collective memory of it said it's far superior to Cowboy Bebop). Well it's finally time to make good on the promise, and you know I hate to say it, but we were so right.

It's time for us to say goodbye to Paradigm City, but not before we talk through the wild ending, bad French accents, clown cyborgs (who are also French), and more! Make sure to stick around to the end where we get to test our Big O knowledge to prove whether or not we're real fans.

It's time for season 2! Unfortunately between seasons 1 and 2 the early 2000s happens and so we now enter the digipaint zone. Fortunately this show is still really well made so even the specter of digipaint isn't enough to ruin the good time we've been having with Big O. We also get to meet a new tumblr sexy (clown) man, so honestly we're having a great time all around. Anime Discussed: The Big O 14-19 Next time: The Big O 20-26 Send us your questions!

We're back with more Big O! We finished season 1 and are still having a great time. We bask in the neo-noir vibes, herald the return of some of our favorite sickos, and pog out at the mecha action. Oh, and it wouldn't be right if we didn't also take the time to compare some of the best episodes of this show with some of the worst episodes of Bebop.

Episode 50: But Do We See His Feet?

Under the Kotatsu ·

2023/02/08

It's our two year anniversary! And also our 50th episode! To celebrate the occasion we spend the first half of this episode doing our second show and tell. This time we each picked two episodes of a different slice of life comedy anime to share with each other. Then in the second half we look back on our last two years by asking each other some questions and going through our personal rankings of all the anime we've covered in the last two years (the results may surprise you... or maybe not).
