Sakura-con 2008: Yutaka Izubuchi

We’re proud to present you an interview with one of my personal heroes, Yutaka Izubuchi. His record speaks for himself, but just the fact that he is responsible for the creation and designs of my favorite series, RahXephon is enough to make me giddy. So I hope you enjoy this.

Episode 124: Anime Boston, the line con.

We’ve got a great show this week. Rangiku joins us to provide the lowdown on the fiasco that was the Anime Boston registration lines. We also do the news and review Heroic Age and Ashita no Kita Yoshio. It’s a great show so check it out. Note that at a certain point Rangi’s audio stream got a few seconds of lag, and since it was recording to the same stream I couldn’t separate it out. It’s new software and I’ll have that sorted out next time.
