Episode 198: 20th Century Manimani

Greetings and salutations. We’re back with a long show. We do the news (a lot of it), review 20th Century Boys (the trilogy) and Sora no Manimani and then I finish up with part 2 of my Introduction to Japanese. This week, more numbers, yes/no, excuse me and this, that and that. Leave comments on your thoughts or to point out where I made a mistake.

Don’t forget, only one more week left to submit your favorite clips from the last 197 episodes of Anime Pulse for the immense episode 200 extravaganza. Go to the forums to see the thread.

Episode 197: Kara no Cencoroll

I’ve got a free hand this week, as Batou’s off playing with illegal weapons or something. So I do the news, review the Cencoroll and the final Kara no Kyoukai movies and do a new experiment, Japanese with Ichigo! This week we covered basic interactions, including greetings, please and thank you. Then we covered counting 1-10 and generic counters from 1-10. Let me know what you thought in the comments.

Episode 196: Spice Lover

After talking about the news, Australia, Comiket, Dragon Quest IX and the Gundam at Odaiba, we actually talk about some Anime. We review Spice and Wolf and Princess Lover. Finally, finishing up the show is an Anime Iowa review from listener infinity_57401 and his friends. Enjoy!

Episode 194: A Needless Show!

So Ichigo is still gone this week so I got the guys to come in and join me again. We have some witty banter, and some not so witty banter, review a show, Needless (the title says it all) and discuss what ever we want usually going way off of topic. So listen in and enjoy, its sure to be a good one.

Oh and no excerpt from the Book of Batou this week.
The cool new music video from Monkey Majik
