It's our ninth anniversary! And on this episode, join Dennis, Ed, Garrett, Karen, & Kate as we return to the world of Studio Ghibli with Ponyo. It's a literal fish out of water story, with the most cutesy imagery for an apocalypse, and perhaps the coolest Ghibli mom. So put those elixers away, because that's what crabs crave. And hit up that deli counter, because Ponyo wants all of the ham.

It's time for the Fushigi Yûgi finale! Join club hosts Kate, Karen, Dennis, Diana, & returning guest Kristen as we go over our final Fushigi Yûgi thoughts. Does Keisuke do enough to redeem himself from the last batch of episodes? Is all forgiven for Yui? Does Nakago deserve the sad backstory treatment? Unexpected kaiju battles, and the return of Force ghosts. It's got everything!
