s2 e27 "Friends til the End, pt 2"Shorter episode this week as we only cover a single episode of the show, but there were just too many Feelings for us not to slow down a little. Listen in as we discuss whether this is a Shadow Game or not, inheriting your boyfriend's boyfriend, and All Of Our Feelings. Plus some recommendations for addicting card games & sapphic tv shows, and our new contender for "best thing written on a sign in the background of an episode" SHOW

s2 e25-26 "The Rescue" / "Friends til the End, pt 1" How can the power of friendship prevail, if Yugi is forced to fight his best friend?? Before we can approach the emotional devastation that will be the answer to that question, we first have to get through a brief clip show recap episode with an even weirder framing device. Listen in as we delve into podcast-typical overanalysis of Kaiba's psyche, whether or not 4kids can say the word "drown", our favorite recap

Battle City Broads ·

2023/10/31

s2 e21-22 "Double Duel" Two weird Rare Hunter guys get Yami & Kaiba into a tag duel that tests the power of their teamwork. Can they work together well, or will Kaiba be so annoying about it that it even annoys the massive Kaiba fans on this podcast? There's also another really terrible 4kids censoring, futher intricacies of the Yami Bakura & Marik situation, and a manga/anime difference which conclusively proves once and for all that dueling is just gay sex (as we've

2023/09/12

s2 e19-20 "Legendary Fisherman" Our favorite freaky fish guy returns to challenge Joey to an aquarium duel! In this aquatic episode we discuss a peek into the life of an average Domino City working mom, asking a man to give you his [Millennium] rod, and new levels of Kaiba pettiness. Also, somehow not the first reference to a weird plot point from Ultimate Fantastic Four that Ellie has made on this podcast. Content warning: very brief discussion of animal abuse (because 4kids just kept

2023/08/08

s2 e16-17 "Mime Control" Warning: this episode contains discussion of mimes, slimes, good times, and Grimes (for some reason). Yami faces off against Marik-via-proxy in his first duel against a God Card, but is Slifer's power truly limitless? Plus, some of our media recommendations and all the usual tangential nonsense. NOTES: -This was recorded wayyy back in February, hence the discussion of New Years resolutions near the beginning of the episode

s2e09-10 "Espa Roba: The ESP Duelist" After a streak of great episodes we're delivered the crushing reminder that this show is, after all, sometimes only about playing card games. Oh well. Listen in to hear us talk about Yami saying "hmm" on a roof, Honda being incredibly frustrating, and why we hate Jinzo. Plus, media recs including highly relevant card game content, and a round of the ship guessing game. SHOW NOTES: - I don't know why we keep saying this series is set in 2004, when it actually

s2e06 "Stalked by the Rare Hunters" The streak of episodes we've loved in the leadup to Battle City hasn't stopped yet, as this week Jonouchi has a run-in with the Rare Hunters that brings some fascinating family drama. Listen to hear us deep dive on Yami's awkward yearbook photos, a scene 4kids really didn't have to cut, and what's going on in Jonouchi's mom's head. Plus, a shipping tangent (what else is new) and some mutually endorsed media recommendations.

Listen in for some dissection of Kaiba's outfit, more complaining about how Yami's name isn't Yami, and a True ROFLcopter Moment™. Plus some analysis of Kaiba's feelings about ancient Egyptian "hocus pocus" magic and a tale of how Viz's manga betrayed me.

s2e04 "Steppin' Out" Yugi invents a brand new social situation, and Anzu helps Yami process his identity crisis through the power of Dance Dance Revolution. We are a little bit obsessed (and can't stop talking about everyone's outfits, either). Listen in to hear about a normal name for an arcade, an oddly specific childhood memory, and why Jenny is secretly a fake gamer.

s2e03 "The Past is Present" Oh boy there's so much going on in this episode... the introduction of our new favorite girlboss, an emotional scene which convinced many a fan that Puzzleshipping Is Real, and Kaiba getting his mind freaked by ancient rock carvings. Plus we debate Reincarnation Lore, and an anecdote about an interesting concert experience.

Battle City Broads ·

2022/10/10

Unadapted Manga Chapters: Dungeon Dice Monsters (Content warning: abusive parent character) If the anime version of DDM didn't impress you, you might like to know the original manga was a very different affair. Recapping this whole volume has us debating what's up with Yami Bakura again, whether clown dad stole a baby, and how much Joey knows about Greek mythology; then once again conclude that what this series needs is more Grandpa Backstory Lore. Plus some life updates on recent adventures and
