    Rolling Review - Hell’s Paradise: Jigokuraku

    Rolling Review - Hell’s Paradise: Jigokuraku

    In its obsessive search for the secret of immortality, the shogunate government sends a party of convicted criminals to a mysterious and deadly island to claim the Elixir of Life. To ensure that they complete their mission, these rogues are each accompanied by an elite executioner, ordered to eliminate them the moment they step out of line. Among these assorted killers are the near-immortal assassin Gabimaru, and the swordswoman Sagiri of the Asaemon. They will need to navigate an island filled with lethal dangers and alien beings, while also keeping an wary eye on their fellow convicts and executioners.

    Spring 2023 End of Cour

    Spring 2023 End of Cour

    End of Cour Spring 2023
    It was a season of plenty here in Spring 2023! We all watched way too much stuff and you're gonna hear about it, so sit back and get comfortable!
    Note: This cast is 1:40:00. We didn't pick a stop point to split this into two casts, so just a warning that this one is REALLY long compared to what we have done previously.
    In addition to all the great things Brendan said about My Clueless First Friend he wanted to add:"Also I forgot to explicitly bring up Self-Loathing as part of Kasahara's character arc in Clueless First Friend.  Theming!"
    Are you ready for ALL the slow burn romance?!?!? Are you ready for, THE GOLF MOON EMPRESS?!?!?!
     
    The Shows covered in this Podcast are: Skip and Loafer, Ancient Magus Bridge S2, The Dangers in My Heart, Kono Suba Bakuen, Insomniacs After School, Otaku Elf, Ao no Orchestra, My Love Story with Yamada-kun, Heavenly Delusion, Kubo won't let me be invisible, My Clueless First Friend, Demon Slayer S3, A Galaxy Next Door, Birdie Wing S2

    Rolling Review - Hikari no Ou (The Fire Hunter)

    Rolling Review - Hikari no Ou (The Fire Hunter)

    Long ago, fire became even deadlier to humans than before. Anyone too close to natural flame would combust, causing a global disaster that drove humanity into darkness. Many years into the rebuilding of the world, two young people become embroiled in the struggles between powerful factions and must brave monsters, divine magic, and a wildly fluctuating quality of animation to survive a confoundingly vague plot. Take a listen to our thoughts as we puzzle out what happened in this weird series.
