This week we're spinning a dangerous wheel. Some series are good, while others should have stayed on the SNES. Which adaptation will Shaun be watching this week?!

What happens when you combine Sailor Moon, Cardcaptor Sakura, Kodocha, Rayearth, and then water it down? You get a... surprisingly decent 2001 anime. Huh. Who woulda thought?
This week we're diving back into that 90s OVA boom with some cute demon girl anime. This time it's a not-ecchi but probably still an ecchi comedy!

We're stepping back into risky territory for Mack... maybe this time he won't absolutely despise this 1970s piece of anime history!

I recently watched the anime 3x3 Eyes and took to the internet to search for others talking about this thing I had just fallen in love with, only to find that fans of this particular manga/anime aren’t the type to make fansites or cosplay or have much of a presence online at all. I did, however, stumble on to this show. The hosts aren’t snarky gatekeepy clout-chasing know-it-alls, just relatable normal people who enjoy taking about the things they like. Highly recommended.
I grew up with a lot of these retro anime and it’s been so fun to be exposed to new and familiar titles through this cute duo! Highly recommend if you enjoy an easy going podcast with bestie vibes
Started with the Vampire Hunter D episode, stayed for the Weiner Olympics... jumped to the episode with Gunsmith Cats (those three OVA episodes are so darn good)! Wait, you don't know about the Weiner Olympics? You'll just have to listen to the episodes and catch up!
I first was brought to this podcast through listening to Anime out of context and I’ve gotta say that this pod is pretty solid. The hosts are great they have fun chemistry and the pods just all around fun. Keep up the good work y’all!
P.S. I forgot to mention but i love the cover art. It’s fun.
Great podcast all around. The hosts are great and fun to listen to with great banter. Great sound quality and the hosts mostly stay on topic.
