ATTALK ON TITAN: Episode 81 - "Thaw"

Otaku Melancholy ·

2022/02/16

Attack on Titan went back to basics in this episode as we saw plenty of Tighty Fighty and "we gotta make some bad decisions" just like in the days of yore and Connie gets his own personal villain arc as he goes to help his mommy while the march continues (even if that march is at a wonderful 10 frames per second). After the hype beast that was the previous two episodes, can this we even hope to measure up? Maybe. We talk DOA and the horrible future that could be the Attack on Titan movie finale all

I was originally gonna call this New New to Yu Yu but that sounded really dumb so I'm not going to do that (for now unless someone tells me it a good idea then I'll totally double down forever on it). Alright so you may be looking at this title and thinking "oh wow they're gonna talk about a longer anime for once that isn't Attack on Titan wow mom go get the presents out early cause it's a Christmas miracle in February" but this is sadly not the case because Audrey isn't in this episode and it's

Man, I would hate to be an enjoyer of this podcast and someone who doesn't enjoy Attack on Titan because it seems like that's the only content you've been getting lately, huh? We missed two weeks so here's a breakdown of two episodes becasue COVID isn't a joke and neither are those northern snowstorms. We discuss the continuing adventures of those wild wacky Jaeger brothers as they go back in time to solve mysterious mysteries like "was it actually parental abuse that ruined my life" and "how much

Attack on Titan OVA: No Regrets

Otaku Melancholy ·

2022/02/06

We show we have NO RAGERTS in this episode where we cover one of the most enticing Attack on Titan OVAs: No Regrets! Can an OVA that features the origin story of notorious best boy Levi be an absolute winner or is it too much of a good thing? We go back to a simpler time and see if this is an excellent addition to the Attack on Titan story or just Levi being hot for an hour.

Another Year of Otaku Melancholy

2022/02/04

It's two years of OtaMel now, weeabros! We survived another year! Not that you would know it from listening to this episode because both of us are sick in this episode. Once again, we take an entire episode to reflect and read some mail and just sit around and talk about how great it is that we didn't give up for another year and maybe also discuss a little anime but I wouldn't grow too accustomed to that or anything. We want to thank all of you for the support you've given us this year and hope

ATTALK ON TITAN: Episode 77 - "Sneak Attack"

2022/01/19

There's a lot to talk about in this episode including how Attack on Titan once again delivers a delicious meme in this episode with the introduction of mad as hell Yelena and whatever the hell that scary thing is in the opening. I'm slowly running late for work and typing this description while I try to talk to a vet so I'm just going to let you guys do the rest and make up your own description because I know you'll do a great job.

2022/01/16

Ay yo, we're back on the seasonal shenanigans. We're going over almost the entirety of MAL's Winter 2022 lineup and picking and choosing what we MIGHT be watching for our new seasonal review because nothing is set in stone and I don't feel like suffering through bad anime. It's like a seasonal draft pick or something for anime, I guess. I don't sport so maybe I'm wrong? I think I'm right. I know a lot about FOOBAW. I held one once. Did you know that my ex had to teach me how to throw a football and

Your results will vary. For sure. Anyways, snow came and it turns out you need an internet connection or something to watch anime so we didn't really have the time (or ability) to watch anime this week so we made a buyer's guide for all your weeb friends! Like... what should you get a weeb for Christmas? We answer that. Do we answer it well? Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Maybe? Is Christmas almost a year away? It is but you should just go ahead and buy everything now. You don't want to have a repeat of what

2021/12/24

Do you remember when we used to trade shows? No? Is it because we only did it once? Jog your memory then cause we're going at it again except now it's in non-denominational holiday form! That said, we're trading Saint Young Men (which has bishonen Jesus) and Itsudatte! My Santa (which is about Christmas) so maybe you shouldn't read too much into the non-denominational part. We're getting in the holiday spirit and celebrating with anime that shares the spirit of the season with religious figures and

Special thanks for DarthEgg for recommending this show! We enjoyed it! Or did we!?!? (we did thank you so much for listening) Anchor's mobile website sucks and has deleted my episode description three times and I have to go to work so here's a funny anecdote to fill space: my roommate calls my Joseph Joestar cosplay scarf a "Yo Gabba Gabba scarf". I just think that's pretty funny. As always, check out new episodes every Sunday by going to our website at www.otakumelancholy.com to see all our links

We normally cover the very worst of anime on this podcast but hey! We needed content and we were lucky to recruit a very knowledgeable guest who would be all too familiar with the kind of manga that flop hard: David from the Shonen Flop Podcast! We talked our top five bottom manga (and one light novel) and broke down what exactly just irked us about all these failures. From rom coms that don't know what an ending is to manga that just want to capitalize on that sick rugby craze, there is a whole

Rap, Streaming, and Bobobo: An Interview with Greshmon!

Usually you go into dealer's rooms at cons expecting to leave with some new piece of anime merch or something of the like but sometimes you leave with some fresh new music and people you want to talk with on your podcast like how we went to Anime Weekend Atlanta a few weeks ago where we met today's guest Greshmon! Greshmon is an American rapper, actor, and streamer who is bringing (in our opinion) a great sound and helping to build a bridge from the world of geekdom to hip hop with engaging lyrics

The evolution of degeneration is a tricky thing. Where, why, and when does a mind truly go mad? There's no concise answer to this (at least as far as anime fans go) but we're going to talk about Oreimo's 2nd season cause that's as close of a discussion topic, right? Right. We're joined by JD from the Anime Brothers Podcast (CLICK HERE FOR ALL THEIR LINKS!!!) to talk about one of his recent finished anime which, if you can read, is the second season of Oreimo and if you know about Oreimo then you

All Raws, No Subs: The Return of the Post Con Blues

Otaku Melancholy ·

2021/11/02

So we went to Anime Weekend Atlanta over the weekend and it was a ride. After two years of no cosplays with love in the stitches, big gulps of ramune, and disposable income being disposed of in artist's alley, it definitely feels like a new age of conventions. We're getting older and that's definitely not a negative thing by any means but the convention experience has changed and we had nothing prepared for Halloween so here we are once again to talk in the same room about what happened while we
