talking about news okay well I'm gonna talk about something else the bonsai wrestling guest anyway before we jump into the news I'll talk about what I started watching I was gonna do that and then I stopped for some reason um basically per nutcases suggestion I decided to start watching Hitamari sketch which I've watched a couple episodes of now and no that's the first season correct yeah it's the first season second one starts in a week or two gotcha all right I'll watch it and it's actually pretty funny you know it's another one of them slice of life goofy shows with goofy characters and odd facel distortions and creepy looking eyes to the eye scarier they do it's where you gotta have nightmares with clung out eyes you're just creepy but like I actually really enjoyed it what I've watched so far it's the first time I watched the first episode at one point and I just couldn't get into it at that point I don't know why it's just kind of like yeah maybe I just wasn't in the mood but I've actually kind of you know it's actually kind of fun this time so that's maybe maybe you had to have the recommendation maybe someone I also was flipping through the first volume in the manga that came out from he impressed this past week or two oh there you go I could talk about Sun Dome today I finished that in a day no spoiler is bad yeah well hey I'll just say this you're not missing much I need to buy it at some point but I probably won't until I can pick up a bunch more Ian stuff on a pre-order sale there you go let's cruise how much planning we've gotten into this show yeah we're just winging it who cares what else did I do I am stir I got my cow guy garbock set and started watching that so I'm now at episode I've watched up to episode seven on the DVDs now so basically this is like basically a rewatch of the show for me and maybe I'll catch all the things you missed the first time it's all the great um bouts where they have to use friendship and bravery to defeat their enemies or such sounds like con con sure except with giant robots yes it a fox well giant robots are fox girls fox girls for the win what about fox robot girls I don't know can they cook and clean who says that regular fox girls can cook and clean that's true okay I'll still say the real and for all you know the robot one might have like a attachment of a vacuum cleaner or something is it anecdotally correct yes yeah whatever oh wow I don't know oh yeah well I mean you done with your little rant of I don't know what am I done with my little rant what else we're driving up to um building another model because that's all I do with my free time now there you go got some got some sad non anime related news George Carlin passed away yesterday the ages 71 I'm been bummed out all

this week in anime news brought to you by anime news network okay now that you given the a okay on this thumbs up all right oh you take the first story all right what's the first story oh and the animation all right Asian sort of guy why are people pissed off over this imagination TV which I think they've changed their name to AI TV that's correct yeah it's not yeah but basically they've got this new anime block they're gonna be starting on Wednesday nights that is gonna be airing from 8 to 11 Pacific time and it's gonna be just them airing Bandai entertainment shows so they're gonna be showing like my he may planets planeties a planet yes I think is actually how it's pronounced sounds like a bad crap don't ever to me ever to hear that that's where I think of like plants I can eat you I don't know evil plants scraps princess towards the terror towards the Terra I go slayers Iashi Mars day break rocket girls all this stuff is gonna be airing on there a lot of new stuff these don't come out yet yeah like I was she and I'm toward the Terra having a rocket girls hasn't either it seems like they're that imagination has been trying to revamp their stuff for a while now I think they were having some problems pick it up like hey why can't I get that station is the thing cuz that stuff I'd watch oh yeah it's another thing it's like they it's like they randomly picked and chose like communities that's how it works like Princeton New Jersey yes they're the anime mecca of the southeast it's not for anime it's for no I know it's really people Asian people sorta like that maybe there's a lot of Asian people in Princeton New Jersey it's the southeast mecca everything Asian height that's pretty darn cool plenty of shit it's like why can't I watch it is only problem and you wonder why people pirate because you don't give it to us so we got to take it by any means necessary they do give it to you you just have to pay for it that that like you would for a movie or other things yes or music okay people pay for music still you do I do iTunes yes I buy I buy songs on iTunes still cool it's convenient there you go kiss this manga from man mama robotic mama to be animated the 28th age issue of kind of goddamn it don't shot I cannot say this let me let me just say it there you go basically it's been announced I kiss access the manga from Bao Daitama is being adapted into an anime it's about a kid who is studying to go to high school and his two older twin Sep sisters who are I think it's like they're like in love with him or something yeah let's incest yeah but they're not they're not blood related so it's okay what they're step siblings you mean I could have dated my step sister ah snap kidding it's okay in Japan it's technically okay here it's just not on yeah it's not social yeah it's not socially acceptable it's illegal it's illegal oh yeah all right works for me basically is however could be interesting sometime only had two volumes compiled so far so it looks like it's um I'm gonna I don't know it's probably gonna be pretty brief of a series maybe they'll come with their own stuff who knows all right moving on power of Drogo the sort of Iraq anime 2009 basically the Shoki didn't use in 2009 at the end of this week's episode which was the final a teaser comes on saying that 2009 the sort of rock so yeah so yeah that's about it yeah nothing people liked it so well there you go you know and Gonzo's doing it again they're going to be showing they have a new show starting up for the summer strike witches and that's going which is about like these girls who have these they're like they're like robot girls basically they're like these girls that use these magic machines that are attached to their body to combat and something like a game three enemies they're ripping that off a little bit okay not really but um basically my point it's going to be um put on crunchy roll and YouTube the same way that Daruga and blessed writer have been so it looks like apparently they're pretty darn satisfied with it so far if they're going to be working it'll be working somehow they're going to be generating some kind of revenue or something with it so indeed vampire night second season to air in Japan in October yeah the official website yeah the official Japanese website of vampire night manga announced that the second season of the anime adaptation has been greenlit for broadcast this October on the TV Tokyo station well that makes no fucking sense doesn't tell you what it is either way it's the second season of the anime yes what is it that you need told to you exactly yeah what station if freaking here's on the TV Tokyo station oh okay I just whatever I can set it I mean I thought it would be like the TV like TV Tokyo station like you know NHK or whatever I was expecting something else my phone yeah whatever but as well as that a crass account a a radio a web radio show is also gonna be produced and that premieres on July 7th for people who care yes I started watching it and dropped it pretty quickly just cuz I mean I can only take so much show Joe stuff and sometimes the the she's kind of overload me which is what kind of happened with the show something oh well yep moving on we got one last story man indeed like slow news week oh yeah that's what happens because it's only two weeks till um anime Expo oh can't wait I want some freaking news man well what I want is um sorry space out there oh what I want is some from 80 V I want to know if they're dead or not school days they better announce it that would be Funimation not a TV still okay 80 V what do they have that's cool I want to don't know Jiken just to piss off everyone in the US yeah cuz seven C's had someone's luck releasing the manga yes yes all those pissed off parents going what my kids want to read it's about kids having sex with teachers that will not do anyway basically the last story is media blast was is licensed on makamaka makamaka which is a Yuri manga that it's it's um a larger than normal volume that it's full color with a dust dust jacket and they're going to be publishing it basically identical to the Japanese released with all that stuff intact whoa yeah which is pretty darn cool seems like a media blast or this kind of getting into the um Yuri business a lot too well hey they got to pick up a slack for everyone else yeah I guess the other house is rebranding and reshifting and repopulating and refiring and yeah yeah I gotta say media blasters is a pretty darn cool company a lot of the time they're the same guys that are doing the releases of Voltron gao gai-gar and then like go lion and diora they're picking up shit that's cheap and that you know they can't do a niche yeah exactly they did simoon um strawberry panic they they've a colorful catalog of stuff that I really like it's and I want them to do more robot stuff oh they will oh come on they will oh no cuz didn't seem like they were too satisfied with how well gao gai-gar did I don't know they did it they went all out on that Voltron release yeah well Voltron crazy that's true but still but um I'll be happy if they just don't grab um gao gai-gar final I bet you they will if they just grabbed that I'd be happy with oh by everything else they release there you go there you go that's how you sell some stuff what else I think that's all for the news this week that's it yeah it's been slow and it's been really annoying but it's what it's like I said we got to wait for the um anime Expo baby that's one of the next stuff comes indeed moving on well I had a chance to pick up film well DVD pics you want to do that okay well my apologies yeah god bless the miracle of editing that patch will be doing this week am I putting it up for four weeks yeah I know I'm a dick yes damn you damn you to hell well okay we're doing it for six 24 oh eight it's another weekend more DVDs are being released what should you get it's time for the weekly DVD pics good size pick one I would probably say death note good show I already have a few which you're gonna pick what am I gonna pick and what damn you see it's like there's nothing I want to pick if I had to pick something this week it would be Emma though because it's a nose only release I believe it's subtitle only I don't think they dubbed this one no no dub on it but it's a very popular show it's something I plan on picking up at some point I have I just didn't have a free order to win on it for a little bit now I find funny freedom volume six of seven is coming out I swear to god Ben has got to be the only people wait releasing new HD DVDs oh yeah they basically are well that's really cuz they've but then they have the fucking balls oh $40 please yeah well that's how much they've been charging from the beginning yeah I know basically what it's what it's turned into with those is because it's been my visual USA which has been a yeah they've been liquidated liquidated but everyone was basically they've committed to finishing up freedom right paid a pretty penny to for all the duplication process and all that BS I figure that's all it is they're just finishing up freedom to kind of show respect for the people who did buy that stuff yeah and I actually wanted to give freedom the only reason I didn't buy freedom was because it was on HD DVD I won't have bought it for fucking two episodes fuck you it's one episode dude what oh my god that's even worse they're like I forget they're like 40 or 50 minutes long 27 27 really 27 F and minutes that is ridiculous if they were on blu ray I probably would have bought on to be honest but they put them on stupid ass on HD TV HD and I just think it's funny they start with the balls they'll be like $40 please yes it's a dead format but please give us $40 dude you're beating a dead horse at this point hey I'll continue to beat it I recently dropped red garden from my list of watchables watch the first volume and if you're into a dark anime I think you might like it but there's a lot of crying and all the main characters are chicks so it gets kind of old after a while he's gonna go and drop on the TV and slap him to shut the fuck up like bitch go make my dinner bitch go make me a pot and make me some babies well I'm gonna have any FCC's I was just thinking it might be offensive to know yeah the one for your listener you know and it go that's a thing I can listen yes hey she takes you in the forum she was listening by the way you can join our forums at forums that bonds I beat dot com shameless plug nice all right moving on it's called the you can do your thing now I guess okay well as I mentioned oh thank you old mighty pads you're welcome the tried same before before I was rudely cut off I mean geez had a chance to pick up sundown volume two last weekend and finally got I've read it in a day I've been be able to like run through these mongas like no problem I said she should just start going to the library so basically if you remember when you left off Akiba what's what's he could I cannot think of names right now I apologize karumi that's what I'm thinking so karumi was quote-unquote sick and she had to keep a go around doing everything to get some water enjoy that from the store and he did it and then she basically just said oh thank you and Akiba got pissed I said you know look I don't you know I'd fucking did all this stuff for you you know all you gotta say is thank you that's BS so she offers him or panties and she goes to the hospital and that's where we kind of left off at the end of volume one volume two kind of picks up cut like two days after that she still hadn't returned to school yet and basically a lot of weird stuff goes down let me just get a quick name list here so I talk know what the fuck I'm talking about sundown oh shit it's a live-action movie of sundown yes no way adaptation really least 11 22 2007 it was a theoretical limited release cool I know shit and she's hot although why does frickin Akiba look like a midget dude pimp I am so getting this for wait if I have to watch you read there's a nails I don't know um okay so god you know this is really stupid I apologize fucking Wikipedia your poems right when I tried going to a and it gets a character list and you're not gonna get that for manga yeah I just noticed okay here we go I'm trying to find the stupid airhead check yeah here we go kyoko I think you say your name kyou kyou kyoko what kyou kyou kyou kyou kyoko kyoko that's how you say it okay thank you okay so volume two starts about a day after the events from the ending of volume or volume one we get to see a lot more of kyoko in the first couple they call them callers the first couple chapters she just kind of says hey without crew me around it's kind of lame and you're all boring and just kind of makes fun of everyone crew me does end up coming back like a day later and crewman continues to basically have her way with Akiba that's really about it basically one one chapter has them going to the movies where Akiba gets handcuffed and crew me has her way with them and make some walk around with like his pants unzipped and all this crazy nonsense they go out to the whole Roman club go out and they play hide they go to the school after dark to play hide and seek because they want to find out what they want to do for a trip they end up going out to the mountains to go UFO searching again and basically this this a bunch of other things happen but in the the gist of everything is Akiba has to refrain from being with crew me and so he has to do that and that's at the very end of the book the volume basically crew me continues to do all her little BS with Akiba he continues to be a little bitch and keeps apologizing for everything never stands up for himself let's her have his way with her like anytime you know he wants to do something he always apologizes and it's great just how their relationships supposed to be though yeah I guess the funniest thing was though one of the former Roman club members came and rented a gym it was like scoping out the chicks and they didn't do exercises and he was like a masked wrestler like you never saw his face he had a mask on all the time it was crazy it was pretty good but it was still over the top nudity and all that jazz Akiba got his time to like molester and vice versa but in the end I'm starting to get really I'm really thinking this volume was just a lot of filler I mean I don't know how long this series goes in the number of volumes but it's already starting to drag unfortunately there's nothing really there it's the same little same old crew we continue to have our way and keep accepts it although I gotta say there is a interesting relationship going on between one of the club members the one with the glasses was really geeky always makes fun of her yeah the peeping finish yeah katsu has a you know always talk always talk shit to Kyoko but you know always trying to like see your panties always taking pictures of her panties and shit like that they've had an interesting relationship going on where they've been teasing each other quite a bit and been agreeing on a lot of like they're playing hide and seek well like he was hoping she would find them and vice versa like there's something going on between them to say the least they both want to make it but yeah like I said it's a saving grace but you're not really told much so I would say read it but don't get your hopes up I mean kind of disappointed myself but hey maybe they'll read cells you on yes no I was talking yes now you hear more of my awesome talking and my overview my final you'll never hear about this show again and gone yes kind of con has ended cue the victory music there you go it's a final countdown you bastard so I got there you go anyway short summary there's 12-year-old look at kid named Kota Kota which is a play yeah the play on soda meet the wolf spirit name Shazuru blah blah blah blah has a three-way with a non-chested wolf spirit as well and it's a slice of life yippie skippy last few episodes of the series they went to shesuru's parents and stayed over there and they went to the beach where Shazuru asked Kota point blank how do you feel about me he never answered thus went into the final episode where Shazuru really pushes hard on Kota to get over an answer even as going as far as raping him well almost raping him she it's all pissed when he says no and who runs away and cries a little bitch and then it rains and then he goes looking for like every fucking anime does in the rain going shazuru shazuru son churuzan where are you like every other fucking anime I see I know and in the end they're live happily we're after Kota confesses his feelings to her but I found the ending to be the best the very after the credits they show them embracing the zombie comes up and says aren't you guys lovers now and Shazuru son says yes why okay we guys be your lover I'm I'm Kota's mistress and she's like what that can happen and like Kota's all freaked out and she's just like what don't you love me don't you want to be with me Kota so then Shazuru says well fine I can't help it you get a mistress and you get me and then they're happily ever after I guess so yeah that's called kartokan don't expel have high expectations expect penny shots whenever there can be done and don't expect much of a storyline slice of life with a lot of itchy it's best way I can describe it it's mindless entertainment but you're not gonna get you it's more of the cheap laughter cheap laughs like the band-aids vimp suit that was sweet no I'm sorry I don't know throw those shows you're gonna be in the mood to watch no I'd rather watch something like I'm sticking to maid guy see I liked it though because it wasn't serious I didn't have a freaking remember a huge long back story you don't need a story for maid guy oh you do you probably do no you do no so yeah that's kartokan I'll give it a five give it a five five five watchable but don't get your hopes up thanks story for main guy is made guys awesome he's a perv and likes molesting young girls and he currently has put explosives into all the girls under into all of the girls underwear if she rips off the ribbons on any of the bows I mean on any of her underwear they explode apparently the reason defense okay I don't know there they're very I don't know it's for protection obviously yes to protect his arm his master okay yes blow away your reproductive organs she's not supposed to be wearing them when they explode no kids from you this way no legs for you that you guess what you're gonna be in the Special Olympics next year you can fence in a wheelchair I gotta say the last thing I got a bitch about I've had a chance to listen to quite a bit of podcasts now in the recent months and I gotta say I saw the worst podcast ever I don't even know why it's fucking popular traction video anime review what you do was dude because I'm pissed why because how is it plagiarizing you should I don't want to start shit but I do no I don't I don't know I just think it's retarded my whole point was like not bad mouth in the person creating it does take time but all it is is like hey fans up material encode into a small five minute clip encode four different shows boom done there's a bad podcast of plagiarized work I don't know whatever I did it out then well you don't tired anyway yeah I got a woken earlier than I'm used
