James is English, Moh has relatives in England, we had to talk soccer to start, before getting the former caught up on the space heaters

00:12:19 - We finally talk at some length about the demise of Gainax. Maybe time gives us a little perspective and lessons

01:17:47 - The Community Calendar. Back to the two Muv Luv bundles on Humble. Oh and the Revue Theatre in Toronto is doing a 20th anniversary showing of Place Promised in Our Early Days (which will probably be done by the time this goes up). And Flow is coming to Toronto

Wednesday, December 16, 2020 • Duration 01:45:34

Of course the big story this week is the not so surprising acquisition of Crunchyroll by Sony. But before that we’ll talk about goings on at the Japan Foundation in both Toronto and New York. And after that we’ll talk Anime Dallas and the Lupin III manga, among other things

Season 2 · Episode 29

Wednesday, December 2, 2020 • Duration 01:44:19

We start this week with the COVID news in the Toronto Area, and a COVID movie run for James and Moh to see the latest Fate/Stay Movie. Then we talk a variety of topics. Like the delivery of Angela’s Kickstarter Comic, remembering Kirby, Maradona, and Tony Hsieh, Simon and Schuster being sold to Penguin Random House, Anime Matsuri, online events at the Japan Foundation in both New York and Toronto, and more on the Netflix algorithm and what happened when some of us answered its call along with some recommendations in the aftermath

Season 2 · Episode 28

Tuesday, November 17, 2020 • Duration 01:51:56

After following up on the pandemic situation in Toronto (which probably sucks as much as it would in your part of the world), and Kevin gives his thoughts on Kat Callahan’s appearance, we talk at length about Netflix’s foray into Anime with Wired’s talk with their chief anime producer. Then we talk about Seven Seas going deeper into light novels, Media Blasters getting out of the DVD on demand business, and a big week in the video game industry concerning hardware, and issues with a big name in it. We’ll then end it off with a look ahead to the online anime calendar this week

Special Edition: October 30 2020 - Remembering Izumi Matsumoto and Kimagure Orange Road

Season 2

Thursday, November 5, 2020 • Duration 01:53:14

SPOILER ALERT: LOTS OF KIMAGURE ORANGE ROAD ONES IN THIS EPISODE

A special tribute edition commemorating the late Izumi Matsumoto and his most famous work, Kimagure Orange Road

Journalist and writer Kat Callahan shares her memories of Matsumoto and KOR with Mike by doing a deep dive into the story and characters, the impact on both the overseas fandom and domestic industry; spending time with Matsumoto in 2012, and perhaps how his health problems led to an incomplete legacy

Mike Nicolas with guest Kat Callahan

Season 2 · Episode 25

Monday, October 5, 2020 • Duration 00:13

Zannen Canada host Jesse Betteridge joins us to talk about Sailor Moon’s appearance on Canadian streaming service Crave, and the business dealings behind the scenes that led to the pick up. After catching our breath from that conversation, we talk about the ghost towns that are movie theatres (with Moh risking his life having gone to see Akira in 4k), and movie adaptations of video games. That and the usual to-do items on our lists
