On this episode, join Kate, Diana, Garrett, Ed, & Dennis for the next batch of Fushigi Yugi drama, covering episodes 14 through 17. More Suzaku warriors found, but somehow, the Seiryuu side isn't panicking. Nakago's nastier side starts showing, the boyfriend shirt returns, one-man knock-knock jokes, Mitsukake's power cooldown, some sort of ninja man-bat, and flute that body.

Joining hosts Dennis, Kate, Garrett, Ed, and Karen is first time guest Chika Supreme from the Shoujo Sundae podcast! Though we only talk about the first four episodes, it's one of our longest podcasts to date, so fair warning. Beside's Chika's anime origins, we also discuss literally getting lost in a book, Miaka's directional hearing, which Disney character is Tamahome, operating hours of a national library, and how many gangs want to capture Miaka.

On this episode, join Dennis, Kate, Garrett, Ed, Karen, and returning from her sabbatical is Caitlin! We're talking about the 1986 shoujo sci-fi movie They Were Eleven, based on the 1975 manga series by Hagio Moto, one of the authors who helped bring about the golden age of shoujo manga. Part Among Us, part Survivor, and add in a touch of romance, the new Esperanza crew have to survive 53 days in space, or else they...can't go to space college? There's unfortunate nicknames, space intuition, an emotional support guitar, juicing mice, gender fluidity, plant robots, and a food fight.

On this episode, join Diana, Karen, Kate, Dennis, Garrett, & Sam as we discuss the 1989 OVA series Blood Reign: Curse of the Yoma. Monsters roam the land, and our hero has to deal with taking out his best friend. But there are a whole lot more things to unpack. Like just what is that flashback that Hikage keeps thinking about? Why are so many ninjas pantsless? There's a literal sea horse that gallops underwater! And two different women love interests, both named Aya. Hope you don't have arachnaphobia, because this sengoku period drama has got spiders in spades.

There's a lot of tough subject matter to discuss in this one, so this episode is not for everyone. But between the sex and the violence, is there enough in this revenge story that has garnered praise from some noteworthy Hollywood film makers along with inspiring a No Doubt music video?

Wataru bears witness to what humanity has become when no one remembers how to speak or act in a society, and picks up Sophia along his journey. There's psychic battles, Cerebro, killer mechs, references to the big coastal American cities, and one man's appreciation for jeeps.

Less away in a manger and more thrown in the dumpster, listen along as we discuss points like how dangerous driving is on snowy streets, found family versus real family, so many Kiyokos, not the mama, and miracles on the streets of Tokyo.

More scientists, more travelling adventure, more backstory, and more of that unexpected 90s OVA ecchi--Inaho not only has to deal with trying to get the O-parts, but she also has to deal with Mosquiton's ex in Camille. Will she be able to obtain eternal life, or will she lose Mosquiton to either Camille or St. Germaine? Activate those pyramid powers, because it's time to go to the moon.

We're continuing the spooky in November with the first of our two -part miniseries covering the 1996 OVA Master of Mosquiton, featuring hosts Diana, Ed, Kate, Dennis, and returning guest Samantha. Why is this vampire and his minions being bossed around by this young woman? How many O-parts are there in this world? What are Honou and Yuki's real forms? Who knew Mosquiton was actually a ladies man? And finally, won't someone back Dr. Hubble his photograph? What looks like an ecchi-comedy from the box art is actually a globe-trotting adventure for a macguffin (but yes, there's comedy and some ecchiness). So strap in and earn that money for travel expenses, because we're going O-Parts hunting with Mosquiton and Inoha.

On this spoopy episode, join Ed, Kate, and Dennis as we discuss the 1988 OVA series Vampire Princess Miyu. There's different vampire rules here than we're used to seeing. Though none of the standard weaknesses apply, Miyu's unaging is typical but granting eternal life is new. There's exorcisms, creepy dolls, not-Alphonse Elric, double sad backstory, and Himiko doesn't even need a warrant for any info.

It's not like prototype mech suits just fall out from the back of a truck, but in this anime, they do! There's a severe case of toxic masculinity for our antagonist 1st Lt Killgore, Ellie's amazing pilot skills for a woman we guess (?), Koji's priorities, Shiori's ten lines of dialogue, and (mostly) reading the manual. Join us on a stolen mecha joyride for Madox-01.
