It’s been a month since we’ve recorded an episode, but we’re back. Ryan is back, too. And this episode is almost three hours long. Sorry about that.

Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust is a great movie. Some would even say that it’s better than Vampire Hunter D. I am one of those people.

Holy crap. It’s a new episode of the Newsbroom! And it’s on time. Early, even. We also talked about Neon Alley, Humanity Has Declined, and Dragon Quest VI.

Even though we haven’t released an episode in nearly a month, we kept recording them. Here are the two we recorded combined into one super podcast.

Don’t you think you’ve already broomed enough news this week? Here’s that picture I was talking about:

It’s hard to say how I feel about Wicked City. I remember being bored when I watched it the first time, but I’ve always loved talking about it. It may not be Kawajiri’s best film, but it’s definitely one of his weirder ones.

It took me so long to post this that I forgot what we talked about. However, I can assure that the news was broomed.

As a general rule, I think anime fans should at least be familiar with Ninja Scroll. They don't have to like it. They don't even have to watch it. They should just know what it is, and the impact that it had on fandom.

There's a special treat at the end of this episode! Also Large Bears is back! Also, my Chuunibyou review is up on A3K!

I know you've been dying to broom this news, but you should listen to the interview I did with Frenchy Lunning first!

I'm not convinced this is safe for human ears, but at this point I don't care anymore.

This is an interview I recorded with Frenchy Lunning back in October. Frenchy Lunning is the director of Schoolgirls and Mobilesuits, the editor-in-chief of Mechademia, and a co-founder of Anime Detour. She's also a professor of liberal arts at Minneapolis College of Art and Design.
