Prepare for Episode 200!

For episode 200 I am planning to do something similar to our 1-year anniversary show and put together a best-of set of clips from the past 4 years. So what I need from all of you is to think of your favorite moments.

If you want to contribute to this show (and get your handle in the show notes) then go here and post your ideas. It’s been a great 4 years, so let’s see what you can come up with.

Episode 196: Spice Lover

Yep, I’m back, which means the intro won’t be quite as long-winded as Batou’s are. Did you miss me? Well I was busy in Australia and Tokyo, but the good news is that I went to Comiket 76, so I’ve got lots to say about it. 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!

Alright, I’m back, unpacked, and ready to talk about Comiket.

Day 1 appears to be a lot of Yaoi stuff, Day 2 is a lot of Game/Videos and Day 3 is a lot of the male-oriented doujin. Of course, every day has lots of doujin, but that’s the emphasis. So, plan in hand, I was ready.

Comiket 76 Day 1

So I just got back from Comiket 76, Day 1. It was a wild time. I left the hotel just after 8am, got to the Rinkai line, Kokusai-Tenjijou station around 8:45 or so. The crowds weren’t bad until I saw the actual line. Then I followed the traffic around to the end of the line, almost a kilometer away!

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
Animenation post on the cool music video
The screwy Korean music video that ripped of Advent Children
