The Banzai Beat Anime Podcast
Spring 2008 Previews
I'm still checking out Japanese TV. Isn't this that cartoon the cause of seizures? I need to survive. I need to survive. I'm not. It's the Bonsai Beat. With Pat and Jella Koon. Your weekly dose of the latest news, current and classic show reviews, DVD picks, and so much more. Welcome to Bonsai Beat. You're probably saying what the hell is this Bonsai Beat? Well now it is. It's a live with it. Episode 6, the Spring Review Wrap Up Show thing. Preview. Yeah, that thing. Yeah. Spring Preview Wrap Up Show. Happy Fun Time. Extreme edition. Extreme now, huh? Exactly. We're here once again with the A.C. Storm this week to provide us all insightful commentary because we can't do it ourselves. Yeah, very interesting. Yeah. He makes up for the lacking of me and Pat's. Or Pat's. Hi. So yeah. Awesome, my name is Pat first. Yeah. Basically. So yeah, today's episode, we are going to do a spring roundup, if you may call that, of all the new shows. Starting here. Starting next Thursday. We're going to pick our favorites and kind of say must watch, you know, tell you all a little bit about each one. If we care enough. We're also going to do our news as usual. And this week we are not going to be doing any, any episode reviews. Yeah, I'm going to be holding off on Gundam and just do a whole big roundup thing next week since that's when the last episode will be out. You have been gunsling a girl as I'm at the ultimate death of the fan suburbs. It's no longer being, no longer being subbed. So yeah. I'm kind of pissed. At least we're like to see what happens in the finish and understand what's happening. But don't be surprised when it gets licensed though. I'm sure fundamentally. No, I guarantee you, the automation will. Because the first one has been so successful. Why did they stop studying it? I think I've heard it's just everyone's just crapping on it and saying it's not good. But hey, whatever. Teach their own. Yeah. Then we're also going to do our DVD picks for the coming week. Yeah. And oh, there is just so many. If you really like a re-releases from Bandai there, that is. Bandai holics. Alright. Guilty. So that's, yeah. For the most part. All the other distributors are too cool to own crap. It's like what? Mecha. That's so frickin' 1990. So on to the news I guess. We should start. Everyone take it off. Sure. Yeah. I'll kick it off. Alright. The first thing I got today, I'm going to kind of double up on this one because they kind of go together. First thing is Bandai Visual USA has announced that they are going to be delaying. She go through me through tears and solo. They haven't, they haven't said what's going to happen with them but that they've put all of them on hold for now. Because of, in light of current market conditions and expectations. Fuck you, Bandai. You fucking gay. What it sounds like is they've finally come to their senses and figured out that people aren't going to buy 7 DVDs for a 13 episode show at 40 bucks a pop. No, I actually got a chance to speak with them. And they say it was because of mecha shows. I hate to re-release all the mecha shows. They only released a few mecha shows. I'm kidding. No, I was really looking forward to this shit. Yeah, well you got to remember this, you were looking, I think you forgot that Bandai doesn't dub stuff. Ah, whatever. It's all only releases. Yeah, you know, that's what pisses me off even more. They didn't have to do jack shit. They could just take the master dubs of the shows run, burn it into a fucking DVD, slap some DVD art on it, boom. Push it out to the distribution factory. But no, they got to be stupid and find some BS excuse which they should have realized when they originally announced the licensing. Like were they gone crack or something when they said people are going to spend all this money? Cause we tell them to spend all that money. Like even then the economic crisis or whatever existed then only a few months ago is that. And why does it take a till weeks before the release? And now they're going to be like, oh, oh by the way, we're going to hold up on it because... Nah, we just don't feel like releasing it. Because we can't. Hey, you got to, at least they've, it looks like they've kind of come to their senses with it. Well no, because they've never said they never said they're going to make any changes. Yeah, well they're going to do something. But here's the other thing else besides current market conditions. This is another quote from the president. He says, "Many aspects of the anime market are in a transitional phase. We need time to reinvent ourselves so that we can bring our customer quality together with better customer satisfaction. We will also try to focus much more on a new Ray disk releases now that the world war has ended." See, that's a bullshit excuse. Yeah. Seriously. Maybe they're going to do simultaneous DVD Blu-ray releases. Okay, but you guys don't understand though. Just bring freedom out on Blu-ray is all I freaking want. Stupid ass. HD DVD shit. One episode per disk. No, you guys don't always want it though. Okay, they're going to look at Blu-ray now that the format war is over. It's fucking animation. It's color on paper. It's not like real life where you can be like, oh, well, this looks good. But no, we're going to go draw HD DVD. We're going to go draw HD TV. We're drawing on 1080i pieces of paper. You should see some movies. What was it I saw? Pepperic I think it was on Blu-ray. And it was just incredible looking. Because with certain things, it just blows you away how good it looks, honestly. And yeah, it could mean they're doing something when they're holding off on their DVD releases so they can release Blu-ray as well. Or they might just cancel the DVD releases and just do Blu-ray. That's even really limiting the market. You know what? With them, you don't know. It wouldn't surprise me. And they say they plan to reschedule them not before the summer, so. Yeah, but still. All the excuses sound like Blu-ray. Honestly, I can wait. There's none of those shows or any. I don't really want to see Shigofumi about to finish watching True Tears. But everyone is all hyped about it because it's like one month between Japan and America. Yeah, I will admit that was pretty darn cool. But at the same time, they were still charging too damn much. I agree. No one was going to buy them. No one was going to buy them. And I think they figured that out. Yeah, no one was buying them. If they re-release the volume one with more episodes, I should just feel bad for the early- Yeah, well, they haven't released any of them yet. None of them have been released at all yet. Oh, really? Yeah. I thought they released volume one or something. No, no, no, no, no. None of them have been released at all. Everything got scrapped. I don't know. These just sound like BS excuses. They just need to come up with time. Maybe something happened to licensing. No, no, no. Nothing will happen. Nothing will happen. Not licensing. But maybe there was a distribution error or a duplication error. I don't think it was anything like that. I honestly think they're changing what they're released set up. I don't think it's as simple as an error or something. I think they're re- They're changing around the way they're releasing stuff. It's more because they wouldn't have to delay it that much if it was an error or something. I think it really- and I think it really comes down to- they're trying to change their structure around to sell more. Not going to be wrong, and not to mention, it would be pretty cool if true tears came out in Blu-ray because that's such an incredible looking show to begin with. I'd love to see it on Blu-ray. It's just a little added bit there. If Blu-ray is the reason, though, for their delays, then it's just stupid because Blu-ray may have won against HDDBD, but it still has a long way to go. Blu-ray players are- their prices are coming down. They've gone up because they've gone up because of their competition. Yeah, exactly. I don't know. Moving on, though, I mean, I guess the only time will tell. Yeah. You said you have something else to throw in there that goes along with the story? Hello? Hey, what happened? I got a phone call. Yeah. Oh, you passed it up. Anyway, what was going on? We just said time will tell, and yeah, we said go under the next door. Oh, you want me to just go with the next one, then? Yep. All right. Moving on to our next story. We've got Gonzo is going to be streaming their shows simultaneously with their airing. Subtitled US or English subtitles. Gonzo's announced that they're going to have their shows streaming on YouTube, crunchy roll, and boast online. All three will be online worldwide for worldwide viewing. The same day as their Japanese broadcast with English subtitles. The two shows they're going to be doing are The Tower of Druga and Blast Rider, which is actually an interesting move, if you ask me. Why are these shots people are even going to watch? Well, I want to see Blast Rider. I don't see anyone actually giving a shit about Druga. But Blast Rider, I actually want to see. It makes me think, it wouldn't surprise me if there's still people fan subbing it. Just because YouTube and shit is so crappy quality. You see the quality of the subs, their subs. What the hell is a boost? It's just another one of those online streaming services things. Gotcha. Well, Bost is going to provide a DRM3 download or something. I read that somewhere else. Yeah, they're going to provide, I think they're going to provide like higher res ones. You have to pay for of the episodes or something like that on Bost. Ugh, something along those lines. It's interesting to see them doing that by themselves. They're not going through an American company. No, yeah. I wonder how bad it's going to be like Ingrish? I'm sure that'd be okay. I mean, I imagine it'll be okay, I hope. But it's not that interesting. Another show is that amazing, but it's just a cool move to see someone thinking about something like this. Nah, I agree. I mean... I'm proud it's moving this way. Yeah, I mean, at least you can say they're trying something new. They're not saying what was me. They're actually going okay, you know. Here's the threat and here's how we fix the threat. Do it ourselves. It made me a little bit of work. But at least now we can't use it as an excuse. Well, it makes me wonder what'll happen with the shows and if they'll still get licensed for, like, DVD distribution out here. I guarantee they would. I mean, like, either there's a people who either watch it fancy, who ever watch it dubbed, and who ever watch it with the English, with the subs. Yeah. And I don't think... I would think no one would care that whoever wrote the subs, they're not going to be like, "Oh, they didn't write it themselves." Or, you know, they were fancilled or whatever. I don't think they'd really care. They just want to read it and make sure it's accurate. Who knows? I mean, it's just like... It's just another Japanese studio moving into some more creative ways of doing this stuff. Could be a good thing, could be, um... Could be shitty. You never know. Actually, there are shows. I'm not interested in acting with them, so I don't know. I'm vaguely interested in Blast Rider, but I don't care at all about Daruga. If I'm even pronouncing that right, I'm probably pronouncing it wrong. It's like a freaking old RPG anime based on an old RPG, so it's like... How do I go? I don't ever pronounce it. I don't ever pronounce it. Anyway, moving on to something that's more interesting. Nah, not really. Yeah, I guess. Bandai. Bandai. Yeah, just Bandai visual to focus on Blu-ray discs in Japan. And you will see. We were talking about... Oh, you just want to... Oh, okay, you want to get brass out then? Okay. Yeah, basically. See, everybody says... So, uh... What? I'm so confused right now. I had the wrong one. I apologize. You confused me. My fault. Bandai entertainment confirms license of rocket girls. Hooray. Hooray. Alright. Gas. Bandai entertainment license is another sci-fi anime. I never saw that coming. Yeah, basically it's a 12 episode series. It ran in Japan from February to May of last year. The possibility of this license is revealed earlier this week. I don't know. Looks like high school girls, I think, you know, standing next to a rocket. High school girls who were astronauts or something like that. Eh. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You're on. They look pretty plain anyway. Looks like you got the hot one, the confident one, and the girl who's all scared and pale for some reason. Seriously, look at the picture. Got the hot camera. Yeah. It was bubblushing. You got big boobies. Or something. And then the other one looks all confident. Like desperate. Yeah. I can fly a ship, motherfucker. What are you doing with your life? I'm flying a fuckin' spaceship. And you got this fuckin' like little scared girl. I was like, "Oh my god, how'd I get here?" Yeah, I don't know. It looks pretty black. I'll paint it. It's like whatever, I don't care. Exactly. Yeah. Point me the rest of the Gundam shows, Bandai. It's about wasting your time on this shit. Well, hey. It's better than Moway. Yeah, that's true. Swell is more? Sorry, I haven't. Anyway, moving on. AVD picks up Upper Deck. Japan's Kiba TV Anime. It's 51 episode. Is it Kiba or Kiba? I think it's Kiba. Okay. 51 Aats, a 51 episode. I'll turn it to World Adventure Television Series. And we all know... Upper Deck. A training card company. Yeah, yes. And you remember what happened with the .hack anime? Being in the alternate world universe. Well, I imagine it's one of those fantasy things. It's probably like, I don't know. It looks like something that could be aired on Cartoon Network for kids. Probably that's probably what they're trying to do. Yeah, they'll probably become somewhat popular. Maybe. Maybe, you never know. And I want to just bring this up real quick, is that at Anime Boston, where ADV announced this, they were queried about Gurren Loggin, which they basically gave no update on. They basically said for Gurren Loggin and Sergeant Frog that basically they're trying to figure out ways to capitalize profits for the shows. In other words, they're probably trying to get them on TV and they're waiting to release the DVDs because of that. You know what's so funny is I remember seeing Sergeant Frog anime, like, promos and new type USA last year. This time last year. I know, I don't know what is up with it. It was like coming to America sucker playing for a gun like, what the hell? I don't even care about Sergeant Frog anymore. It was like, what? Who smoked this? And since that's big on Anime, Frog can speak Japanese Spanish. It's got them on us too. Oh, see? He does everything. He probably plays so many playstations. Probably. Probably. They probably just ripped off Crash Bandicoot and took the frog and plays a Crash Bandicoot and called it the official game of the anime. Yeah, I went there. Yeah, you did for some reason. Alright, moving on once again. I'll take this one. There has been an announced Blade of the Immortal anime series, which is going to be premiering this summer. It's based on the Blade of the Immortal manga series, which has been running for a long time. It's about a swordsman who... Basically, he's traveling around. He's basically punished with immortality. And he has to travel around and kill 100 evil people for every good person that he killed. And once he does that, he'll be able to die because he's lived for so long. Now, this is actually fairly interesting because I've always heard things about Blade of the Immortal because it's been around for a long time that the creator didn't want an anime series done on the show because he didn't feel it would represent the art style. Well, I don't know if that was just bullshit from people, but it's still pretty cool to see that. It's finally happening. I don't know. The plot seems like overused. It's like you killed a bad person. Do X number of good deeds and you shall be saved. I don't know. It just seems like a... Granted, it's being animated by each other. But it's killing nearly a good seed. We know. Well, I guess it's different, I guess. But still, it's... Yeah. I don't know. Let's see what you mean. Yeah. It's based on the same plot, but no. Teach their own if you like it, hey, more pro. It's really popular. I'll tell you that much. It better be... The manga is really popular. I know a lot of people are fans, but I haven't read it myself yet, though. Oh, right. You got all quiet there, so I'm going to move on to another store. And the next story we've got for you today is... Unsurprisingly, Viz has announced that they're going to be releasing the first belief movie. Hold on. Hold on. Let me gasp. Wow. There you go. Well, it seems like they're going to be doing it the exact same way they released the... The first Naruto movie, which was... Straight out. DVD. Well... It had like a brief time in theaters, like... Oh, yeah, you're right. It was very, very, very, very... Very limited. Yeah. They're probably going to do the exact same... Oh, yeah, you're right. It was very, very, very, very... Very limited. Yeah. They're probably going to do the exact same thing. And they're going to release it on DVD, obviously. And then you'll probably err on Cartoon Network a few times or something. No, I don't understand. Like, if I were a movie theater operator, I wouldn't be like, "Hey." And I have Blechias as popular, but seriously, like... I don't know how well Cowboy Bebop did... You know, um... Indeeders. I know it's a lot of work. Funimation's been doing it a bit with some big stuff and that kind of thing. It's not easy stuff to get done. I imagine they have to make it... Because it's real limited. It's very specific theaters, and it tends to be... They pick these theaters because they know that enough people will go to them and that kind of thing. Oh, yeah, it's probably a big cities, huh? Yeah, it's going to be like New York and DC and LA. It's big cities. Gotcha. That's basically what it's going to come down to with that. Alright. We've got one last quick story that I just have to bring up because it's awesome. And that is the, um... The Gundam's... Bronze Gundam statue that was, was unveiled this past Sunday in Tokyo at the Kamigusa train station, which is, it's a big bronze statue of the RX-78 Gundam. And it's positioned right at this train station that lets off, essentially, um... In the district of Tokyo, where a whole bunch of anime studios are located, including sunrise, who anime's done them, obviously. And apparently it took, um... 20... it took a petition from 2,400 local residents two years and a 20 million yen investment to build a 3 meter tall statue. 20 million yen is roughly $200,000. And that includes 2 million yen that came from national government funds to cover this statue. Now, I just have to bring that up just because that proves how awesome Gundam is. Yeah, I just find it funny though, you know... They're willing to like spend money on that crap, and they're like, "Here, those are like in America." They're like, "What?" "No, never." Oh lord. Or, you know, how would you like to give me, you know, you've won the Japanese lottery 200 million yen. Alright, I've got $200 in my bucket. $200,000, I mean. Whatever. Our dollar sucks, I guarantee you... I guarantee you, Japanese yen would be a lot more... We're more pricey than the dollar. And then you'll go tell my boss, "I'm gonna start getting paid in the end." Well, yeah, well 100 yen is roughly a dollar now, I believe so. Alright, and that'll close up our new segment for this week. Hooray. Yay. Aw, and stuff. So, and with that, we're going to be moving on to our DVD picks of the week. Yes. For April Fool's Day. April 1st. And yeah, it might have been a laughing stock because, man, not a single new DVD to be. Yeah, set re-release. Yeah, it's essentially Bandai re-releases this week. So... Wow. If you... Basically, I mean, for me, I mean, all I have to suggest that they've got the first Z-8 of gonna break case coming out for 50 bucks, you get the first, I think, 25 or 26 episodes of the series, which is a fairly good deal. You can probably pick it up online for like 35, 40 bucks. It's something... If you haven't picked it up yet and you haven't even thought about it, it's something you should definitely do because it's the cheapest you're gonna be able to get it now. It's a third time it's been released, granted, but... But besides that, there's not much interesting coming out. There's a re-release of Haruhi, but even that, I can't really suggest because... I'd say because it's still pretty easy to find like the limited edition of Volume 1. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. What a best buyer. It's all a best buyer, I was gonna say. It's a packed and best buy still. Oh, hell yeah. So... I was gonna say Haruhi DVD box that if you didn't get the first time around, you'd get it for like 30 bucks cheaper now. It's like half off. Yeah. And you get a couple of little extras, I guess if you... Is it the same stuff inside as the... Well, this is the one that's coming out next week. You get the first volume of the show and then two of the character CDs. This is what you get. Do you get different character CDs with the first one? The first limited edition or? No, you just get those extra CDs. Yeah. What you get in the CD? You get one of the character CDs and then I think it was you get the arm band I think it was or... Oh, well, I'm gonna need that. Yeah, exactly. You need to walk around with Keon. I can address it with Haruhi. I'm gonna dress up as a Haruhi for anime expo. Sweet. Got us in pictures. Yeah. Ladies. Wow. Pat and I vowed that we'd go to Japan together and go get a picture in front of that statue. Hell yes. Hell yes. We're just like, you know what? We each want to go to Japan, but it's like cost an arm or leg. We're like let's just go together and we'll go get a picture in front of the statue. We dance. We dance. Now I'm more like you kissing it and like humping it or something. You're kissing it and running away from the gops. Yes. Oh, you're just desecrating it. I'm 200 million yen. No. Why, guy, touch statue. Get him. What are those fans that they hit people with? I know what you're talking about. They're gonna hit you with fans or something. God. Oh, Lord. Sorry, I got that from MXC. That's all you guys. I remember it. Okay. So now the reviews are actually podcasting. Yeah. It's not for the hundreds of millions of dollars either. Yeah. No, not the hundreds of millions of dollars. It's. It's that time of the year again. It's that time of the thing, I guess. I don't know. Season. Yes. Sure. Why not? That works. Anything. Anyway. Going retarded for a second there, it seems. Anyway. With that, we're going to commence our spring season preview roundup thing. Hooray. Let's get some high. Yes. Damn. I'm thinking about PIEF. Alright. So, I guess we're going to, let's just kick it off. We're going to be doing this for the most part in a bit of a chronological order based on when the shows are premiering. We're not going to cover every single show. There's some stuff we'll skip and there's some, you know, some stupid stuff like the new Yu-Gi-Oh show. That kind of thing will pass. Hey. You know what? Maybe I want to watch Yu-Gi-Oh. Maybe if it's already licensed, man. Can't be some talent with the licensed anime. Oh, crap. You're right. Damn the predicament I'm in. What are you going to do now? I don't know. Gulp. By legit. I guess so. Watch it on four kids. Alright. Give it 6 a.m. Hell yeah. Alright. Anyway. We're moving on to something a little more. Less retarded or something. So I think we're just not trying to be serious because we've just been like one of those weeks. It's just like, well, all this shit you have to do. You're looking forward to it, but still. Yeah. So our apologies. It's one of those weeks we just want to fuck around and not really care. Alright. And I'm going to kick it off with the first show because that's how I do. Alright. The first thing we've got is from that's premiering next Thursday the third is my cross frontier. Now, this is the, oh wow. It's celebrating the 25th anniversary of this franchise. And the first episode, or it's like an extended version of the first episode's already aired. I haven't gotten a chance to watch it yet unfortunately. But essentially this is a new McCross anime. You should know what McCross is if not. You should go kill yourself, I guess. Well, I'll talk to you guys later then. Well, I'm off. Yeah. Bye. Good luck, Pat. Bye bye. Anyway, it takes place. Damn, I'm trying to figure out, I'm not sure exactly how many years. But it takes place after, um, McCross 7. And it's essentially a new McCross series. It's, yeah, basically the summary says it's, um, pop idols team, team with mecha pilots and the 25th anniversary version of McCross. That's really about it. Basically. But that's how McCross has always been. There's always the singer and all that kind of shit. Oh, yeah. Music's always been a big thing. It's got Yoko Kano doing the music for it. Which is great. So it's definitely something that's gonna, um, be awesome. And the CGR looks amazing if you ask me for the, um, damn, what do they call them? That Valkyries, I believe. And, uh, it's such an overused word. Basically, it's awesome. And that's probably, at least in the top three for me for this coming season. It's a must watch if you ask me. And obviously it's like I don't give a shit for those two. No, with that, I'm gonna hand it over to my, my good friend. One of you guys over there who feels like to screw you then. God. Sure. Oops. I'll hand it over. I'll hand it over to, um, Rob to pick up the next show on the list. Um, I would say Allison to Lula. Yeah. I hope I'm pronouncing that correct. It might be you. I'm not really sure. Lula. Lula. Lula. Who's the next guy? Yeah, it's L-I-L-L-L-I-A. Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's Lula. Okay. Yeah. Basically, somewhere he is, uh, in a world where two countries are at war, air forces have just recently begun to be deployed. For sure, we'll follow two girls and their adventures there within. No, the Lula novels are set 15 years or so after the Alice novels. Wow. That makes no difference. Okay. Sorry for reading that part. Anyway, it's basically, yeah, it's a new 26 episode series. It's based on, um, this two set of- Nongas. No, it novels. They're novels. They're novels. It's based on these two sets of novels. Oh, novels. However. The Alice in novels and then the Lula in trays novels. Okay. It looks like it's set like sometime, doesn't even look in the future. It looks like it's set like in the 30s or 40s by the look. But look at the planes in the picture. World War II look. Yeah, the planes look really old War II. Yeah. Well, damn, I'm trying to find a good summary of it. But it's essentially like, um, well, it's from the same writer as the, uh, damn, damn. The Kino's Travel novels, which is another good thing about it. And it's essentially, there's these, it's two, it's got two main stories. One is the story of, um, damn. Hello? You're there. You've been there any time? Oh, sorry. I just stopped hearing anything. All right, basically- We're being polite. No. Weird. I'm not used to that from you. So it's turned me up. All right, there's these two sets of novels, basically. One is the Allison novels, which are about Allison and Trace, which are two friends. And I don't really want to get deep into the story, basically. But it's got these two, it's got this set, and then the William and Trace novels, which is about Trace and his, um, girlfriend, I believe. Lillian's his girlfriend, and, um, they take place a few years later. It's, it's, damn, I'm doing bad at this. But anyway, my whole point is that it's probably going to be pretty good. It's got same writers, Kino's Travel, like I said, just another good one. I know it has me certainly interested in it. It's definitely up there for me to watch. So, I'm going to stop rambling now because I'm starting to feel stupid. Yeah, I can kind of look. Shut the hell up. You should say that soon in one, soon in a while. All right, so, if you want to take the next one, I see you've been kind of quiet. All right, also airing on Thursday, April 3rd is, uh, Torav, Toravru. And, um, what, that's supposed to be a pun on, uh, Treble? Yeah. Because the Japanese can't pronounce their else. So it's like, Toravru. Anyway, it's about, um, a high school guy, and he can't confess to his dream girl. And then an alien girl appears in his bath and decides that she wants to marry him instead of returning to her home planet and marrying one of her suitors. Yeah, it's essentially about the main character dealing with the hot-ass girl that shows up and trying to force himself on, force herself on him. Hey, if that happened more than all the crazy alien suitors. And all the crazy alien suitors that show up to fight him to get her. So it's basically a fan service filled. Hell yes. Yes. Can anyone say shuffle? No. No. No. It's got, the manga had the same artist as on Black Cat. I had a different writer, but it was the same artist as Black Cat. And it's just another, you know, it's a shonen jump romance show. It's got one of those wacky twists. I think it's gonna be funny. I've read the first volume of the manga, and I enjoyed it. I haven't read much more, but part of that was just because I was gonna decide to check out the anime, which some people would get me crap for, but besides that, I'm sure it'll be fun. I don't know. I'll watch a first episode for all the nudity and be like, "Yeah, that was great." Hell yeah. Hell yeah. And it shows gay. Nah, the show doesn't seem, I don't know. I guess I could say... It's a fan service. I just wanted, yeah, but I mean, I'll look at it like this way. I thought I'd hate Kodomo no Jigin, and it turned out to really, really like the show. It's like once you got past the lollicon and all that crap in the show, it was a really good story, and the characters were really well done. So I guess this might be one of those shows where on the outside, it's just your typical stupid romance with a lot of stupid, typical plot twists. Yeah. And it may be better. I would say I'll give it two episodes. Yeah. If it's still really lame, I'll put in the past. I mean, come on, it's a jump show. It's gonna be stupid. I guarantee you that. It'll be stupid, fan service fun. I'm not sure if you're only so sad. I see so many animated panties, and then I get tired of it. I never like shuffle and love Hina, or I grew to hate them, so probably not gonna give this a chance. Yeah, absolutely. All right. I'll let you go with that. I don't really agree with it for the most part, but I'm a fan of love Hina, the manga, so. But all right, I'm gonna move on. And we've got one last show that's premiering on April 3rd, and that is Kure Nye, which is, it's based on light novels. It's about a 16-year-old man named Shintaro Kure Nye, who is basically his job is settling disputes for people. And he's approached by a family, this rich family, to be their young daughter's bodyguard. And hilarity ensues, essentially. I assume. It's not a little like kadoujou, I mean, from the ray point of view. I mean, maybe not, I mean, maybe it's a bad anime to use, but... It's one of those, it's like another one of those shows, maybe, but Thursdays by themselves are kind of jammed to begin with. So, it's not what, it's not something I'm cramming, what's the word I'm looking for? Dying to watch, I might check it out, but it's one of those, if I had to say, if you had to choose between the four things that are premiering this coming Thursday, I mean, crosswind, and it's just because of the frickin' factor. It's a good show, everyone really likes macra, I mean, not everyone, but it's kind of a good base following, I mean, if you were to pick anything out of that, I guess you'd see macraas for the nostalgia factor. So awesome. I'll say hallelujah. Yeah, I think I'm going to say probably two trouble. How do you say it? Two love room. Two love room. I'll say I'll just try that. I've never watched macraas, not a big fan of the... And Allison doesn't seem very... Doesn't tickle your fancy. Yeah, I didn't tickle my fancy. I mean, it could be a good show. Oh, right. Well, you want to kick us off for the next day? It's not really much that... Yeah, I was going to say, is there anything you guys want to lie? Honestly, there's nothing. Yeah, there's not really much that interesting. The one thing that is premiering that's... Oh, you know what? It's actually forgot that's premiering on the third. It's the second season of... Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, triple-exholic. Can they just start... Triple-exholic? Just start a triple-exholic in the United States and all these shit. You sound like ass. I do? Yes. Am I better now? Yes. Oh, that's weird. All right, yeah. Well, just... They just started doing triple-exholic in the US. So, I mean, I guess if you can wing if you want to either download it, fan-subbed and watch it, fan-subbed, or wait for the... Basically... Basically, you're going to watch the show if you like the first season and you like the show. Yeah. If you haven't watched the first season, you're not going to watch this one, I mean. That's basically what it comes down to. All right, well, moving on... For the fourth, we don't really have much personally that... I might watch Ytazura Nakais. Ytazura Nakais? Yeah. Yeah, it's Nakais. Go ahead. Well, that anime blog says... Is a love at first sight for Ayyada clinical as top student. So, some other top student delivers a speech on the first day of high school. After two years of secret admiration, I don't want it. Is the rejection she gets when she plucks up enough courage to hand him a love letter. And I guess it goes on from there. Well, they end up like moving it together. They end up... Yeah. Her and her father move in with the guy after he rejects her. And, you know, the hilarity ensues again. I like saying that now. (laughs) I mean... I don't know. Supposedly it was that popular that it was made into a live-action drama. So, was it? Yeah, it could be interesting. I mean... I like shows. So, I'll give it a try. I'm trying to take a break from a lot of the romance shit right now, so it's probably not one that's very high on my list. I don't know. Yeah, there always seems to be like 17 romance animators. You know, surprisingly there's not a ton this coming season I was expecting more. I'm going to have Spring is the time for love, I guess. Yeah. All right. Well, I'll take this next one. For April 5th, the first thing I've got is Blast Rider, which is Gonzo Syfy show. So, there's a group of people who already know they're not going to watch it, I think is what it comes down to, but it's about... It takes place in the future, and it looks like something like dead people start to rise again or something. And it's about these people who have these magical abilities to transform into these demonic forms or something. And they battle these zombies or whatever the heck they are. So, I think it could be cool. This is one of the shows that Gonzo is going to be distributing on YouTube and shit, subtitled. And it's Gonzo Syfy, so it's certainly going to look cool if anything else. So I'll definitely at least check it out myself. I don't know how you guys feel about it. I'll check it out. Yeah, I guess. Yeah, it's one of those. Yeah. Yeah. It doesn't really... Doesn't tickle my hands. Yeah. It seemed like you were a little hesitant to use that phrase there. Ugh. All right. What else do we got coming on the fifth? I'm going to say Kanokan. Yes. Never watched a Yuri before? No, I don't think it's Yuri. Well, I don't know. Well, it's not Yuri. No, it's not Yuri. Well, you mind... Oh, yes. It's furries, yes. What? No, Yuri, but it's got furry. That's it. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, guys, what you saying now? He's a fox deity. Yes. All right. Fox DD's falling in love and... Big boobs. Yes. Big boobs. A fox. I think they stole the idea from Foxy love and drawn together. Oh, come on. They've been doing this in Japan for a lot longer than that. I don't know. Yeah. Don't be... Don't be comparing it to that crap. So, yeah. I'd like to see... I'd like to try an episode of Kanokan. Just to see, hey. Maybe it's something different. And I'm always a fan for comedies. And if they can do it right... Yeah. I would certainly like... Yeah. I mean, Kan... It's... Seriously, it's gonna be like... From the looks of things, it's just gonna be fans or without the ass, so... Yeah, yeah. Well... Typical show. Yeah, nothing fancy. I mean, it probably won't have much story to it even, but... I'm still interested in it, personally, so... 'Cause it's so different, I guess. Oh, all right. Saturday April 6th. No, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no. I don't want to be skipping common-nomade guy. Do what I want. Yeah. 'Cause that's probably the one... That's probably the show I want to see the most. That's premiere. Okay, I'm watching the trailer as we speak. Common-nomade guy, yes. They got... Awesome music. Basically... That's good music. All right. This fits made perfectly to a tee. Basically, it's about these... This girl, she says, like... Rich... Um... It's a real rich girl, and she has two bodyguards. One's a hot maid, and then the other one is... A big ol' masked guy that's dressed like a maid. And I'm not really sure where it goes from that, but honestly, does it really matter where it goes from that? 'Cause... That alone makes it sound awesome. Well, actually, I'm watching the trailer now. There's a lot of fan service. Um... You can tell it's gonna be a comedy 'cause I have the really crazy facial expressions... When, you know, there's something big that happens. Like, her eyes are all white and... Whatever, I don't know what they call it, but... It's not your realistic show it looks like. Well, obviously not. It's about a... You do. But basically, yeah, it's a... Show about this girl who has these two bodyguards. One hot. One big ol' dude. And... Them protecting her from the people who want to cause her harm to steal all her money. And that sounds awesome to me. I'm definitely going to check it out 'cause it just sounds hilarious. The whole concept, myself. Mm. Oh, alright. And with that, I guess... Someone take it away for the next one. Um, I'll take... Premiering on Sunday is a code... Okay. Is it G.S. or G.S.? It's G.S. I'm pretty sure. No. It's like words. No, no. They said G.S. or G.S. on the show. I don't remember how they print out. Yeah. Well, I haven't watched it yet. Oh, yeah. No, I haven't watched the first one. Yeah, I haven't watched the first one either, so... It's all new to me. The second season of that is coming out, so... I don't know how to describe it without spoiling the events of the first one. Don't bother. Anyone who's watching... Just say what I said about the triple X. Anyone who wants to watch... Who would love the first one, you know? You're going to want to watch. I'm like a mecca nut, and I still haven't watched the first one. Everyone talks about how great it is, but there's just something that's stopping me from watching it. I don't know what it is. I just... For some reason, I just don't watch it. If it's sitting here waiting to be watched, I just haven't gotten to it. It's weird. It's like I don't want to watch it because of how popular it is or something. No, that's... But I doubt that's what it is because... I mean, I watched Gundam, and that's certainly just as popular, if not more. What the right people are. Well, yeah. It's coming on Sunday, April 6th, and... So there you go. You're going to watch it if you're going to watch it or not, you know? I don't know. Everything else for that day seems kind of boring. No, I got one more. Yeah? Well, actually, I got two more that I want to bring up for... What day are we talking about now? Wow. Sunday, April 6th. And... It's... The first one is Nabari Noo, which I really want to check out. And that is... It's about this boy who has some kind of power inside him. And there's all these clans of ninjas that are trying to acquire his power to... Rule the ninja world, essentially. And... It's about him, and he's in school, and ends up that he has all these people around him... Trying to get him to become a ninja, and that are working to protect him and shit. And, well, basically it's a... It's a new show from JC's staff, so that's another reason I'm going to... And one of the things that makes me laugh a little bit about it... Is the fact that they've got... Kugami Amari, who voiced Shana and Luis... Is voicing the main character, the male... The main guy, which just makes me laugh a little bit just because of how... Squeak here, asks for voices. And then we've got the guy who voices using Saito voicing one of the bodyguards, which is always cool. It seems like they're in frickin' everything JC's staff does now, so... Hmm, quiet. I'm gonna watch it for the girl. There you go. Yep, that's my reason. Oh yeah, I'll probably check out what episode, but... I do have one other one that's premiering on the sixth I want to bring up, and that is... Special A. Oh wait, I'm not really sure. I believe it premieres on the sixth, and that's... Special A, which is... It's a romance series, comedy romance show. It's about this... It's something that I've been meaning to read, and I never got around to it, so now I'm gonna end up watching it. It's about this girl who spends her whole life competing with this guy, and... She basically, while they're competing, she doesn't realize that... He's essentially fallen in love with her, and it's basically, you know, a comedy series about all that. And it has to do with, interestingly enough, I've heard it gets further away from that, but... A big thing about it is that they're both, like, into wrestling, and they both wrestle, like... Real wrestling, not professional wrestling. Like, serious kind of wrestling, like, our girl Roman wrestling. Like high school wrestling? Yes, high school wrestling. They go from wrestling school. So, when are you gonna feel her up? Like, um, let's train. Okay, down position, put your hand in the stomach, and slowly go towards her breasts. But yeah, it's a love combination, and I know a lot of people are looking forward to it. It's really one of those... It's really one of those things where... It could go good or bad, because Gonzo's involved in it, and if you watched Rosario the Vampire this season, you know what going bad means with the Gonzo show. So, especially with the romances. I couldn't say, uh, put this on the, you know, the simultaneous release. Yeah, honestly. So, yeah, I'd rather watch this than the Tower of Dura, or whatever. Well, Gonzo's not the only studio involved in Special A. Which is why it has a chance of, um, being good. I mean, I'm enjoying Rosario very little, but... It's just one of those things where Gonzo shit can go either way. All right, take it away, actually, with something else. Oh crap, um... I'm giving you the good one. On the sixth? On the seventh. Or the seventh? Uh, I don't know which one you're referring to, but I'm just gonna go with, uh... Come on, see if you can get it. Vampire Knight. You failed! We're looking for a Soul Eater? Yes! God! All right. Oh, I'll let you have that, since you want us to bat. All right, I'll gamma on about another show now. Soul Eater, it's the new Bones Show. It's based on the manga, the same name, obviously. And, well, it's a really, the whole concept of it is, it's about, um, these... They're essentially death gods in training. Shinigami in training. The more traditional type with a scythe and shit. They have a weapon with just... It's kind of hard to explain, but they're essentially like a person that transforms into a weapon. There's three, um... Death Shinigami, and then there's... They each have their weapon in. The whole big story of it, at least starting out, is that... They have to collect, damn, what's the number? It's, um... Damn shit, I can't remember the number. It's... Oh, man, I think it was... Oh, damn, I feel bad 'cause I can't remember the exact number. They have to collect so many human souls. You have to collect 99 evil human souls with their Soul Eater, the, um, weapon, their, their scythe, or whatever. And then one witch soul so they can become a full fledged, um, Shinigami, and create their, um... Their real, their death scythe, essentially. And this is... Well, it's easily gonna... Personally, I'm gonna say this is probably gonna be the best show coming out this spring. It's from Bones, which alone guarantees it's gonna be pretty good. And then I've read some of the manga and it was really good. And then they're doing something really cool with it. It's getting two airing times. It's gonna air once at like a prime time slot. And then a couple days later, it's gonna have added content like violence and shit for a late night airing. Awesome. I just hope now it's gonna be like... Uh, the same fate as... Um... Uh, shit, I'm sorry. I just kind of... I had the name of the tip of my tongue. Um... What was the show I was airing with school days that had the arcs and was really violent? Um... Wow, I apologize. Uh... It's okay. But anyway, I think it's gonna be... Yeah, there was that one show where the kids like killed themselves and like... Oh, we're talking about them, um... Shit. No. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. Higurashi, no. Yes, yes, yes. Coronavirus. Yeah, Higurashi, there we go. Yeah, I apologize, yes. I hope it doesn't have the same fate as Higurashi where like... They'll like, allow to air it, but then they'll be like, "Whoa, dude, current events in Japan and their own world." Uh, it's not gonna be like that. I think it's just it's gonna have like extra blood and shit in it probably, is it? Uh, it's 'cause it's... It's a wacky show. It's a wacky series at the same time. It's got goofiness to it. And a little bit of fan service 'cause there's this hot, um... Witch cat girl thing. I can't remember exactly what she was. That hags around one of the characters. [laughs] Rawr. I'm sorry. Yeah, so... [laughs] That's like the must watch show for the season for me, at least. I mean, I'd even choose it over my cross, so... There you go. All right. Now you can have Vampire Knight, my friend. All right, Vampire Knight, also airing on the 7th, is about some girl named Yuki Cross. Uh, she was attacked by a vampire. And then rescued by another vampire. And then 10 years later, she becomes a guardian of the vampire race and protects her, uh, rescuer. Um, that's about it. I'm sure, Joe. I'm a vampire, sure, Joe. Oh, it looks pretty generic. The plot, but I don't know. I'm so interested. I'm vaguely interested. I might check it out. It's one of those that... I might end up watching if I have enough time. But I'm not. It's seriously, it's not one of those shows that I'm going to be dying to watch. Mm-hmm. All right, um... Mr. Rob, you want to take another show? Um, yeah. Monochrome Factor. Uh, let me catch up to you guys. I apologize. I'm trying to do my own thing over here. There we go. Yeah, Monochrome Factor looked kind of neat to me. It's an action fantasy. Fantasy Brothers' normal kid. I'm going to tell the Shadow World gets thrown... gets thrown out of alignment. And then he asked to join a fight to restore the balance between the two worlds. And, um... I don't know. It sounds like a kind of like a bleach kind of thing. I mean, not probably not as good, but... Yeah, it could be something kind of interesting. But it kind of seems overused as well, too. The normal kid has to... Save the world. Crazy. Yeah. Yeah, it could be cool. One of those, that's kind of like... maybe, maybe not. You never know. Yeah. Yeah. It's not Soul Eater. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. Soul Eater, I think it's the one that we'll watch. Yeah. Definitely. So, moving on, I guess. What else we got here? We got... We got the next day now. We got Tuesday, April 8th. Oh, you're not going to talk about what Gama know. You just did it. Why not our Osama? Oh, it's not even listed on here. I apologize. Yeah. I don't even see it. Yeah, where the hell is that at? That's the one about the... It's the one about the... I don't even see it. Yeah, where the hell is that at? That's the one about the... I don't... It's the one about the... I don't know. What? What? What's I got? What's I got? What's I got? I don't know. I know our Osama. It's about a... And becomes a guardian to a family. But the wacky twist is now... It's so old apparently that... It's forgotten it's original gender. So it takes on... So it has both male and female forms. And it basically is about this crazy thing running around. Oh, this fox deity guardian thing running around protecting its new master. It sounds funny and wacky and... Could probably be cool. I watch a trailer and it looked mildly interesting. So it's definitely something I'll check out. Just because of how bizarre the concept sounds. So... Come on. It just makes you laugh a little bit to think about. How old this? The guy wakes up after hundreds and hundreds of years and has to simulate into the 21st century. Come on. That'd be a great anime. Fine. Fine. Don't fucking hear me. Yeah. Pastards. I don't do that no more. I guarantee you. Next season... They'll be like... He was dead for hundreds of years. But he wakes up in the year 2008. And then I have Rob Schneider. It probably is a show like that somewhere. This is probably a half dozen shows like that. My good idea, god. Damn. I thought it was me original. I suck. Yeah. Basically. Okay. What else do we have? Damn. Where is it? Are we heading to Tuesday? Uh... I believe so. I'm not really interested in any of these shows. I find it. One on one second, my friends. Uh-huh. Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do. Um... Why is it that I can only find this one show listed on one site. It's kind of bugging me. What? What show? Real Drive. Hmm. Well, I see it on... Or... I don't know where you're looking though. It's not on that, is it? Oh yeah it is. It is. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Let me go ahead and read the summary. Yeah. Just... Yeah. Just start it. We're gonna cut all this crap out, probably. Or rocks. Okay. Oh. Super. Aw. Sweet. I just watched a Crystal Blaze trailer. Or... What? Oh. Okay. It's on real Drive. I'm watching the trailer real Drive right now. All right. Anyway, just go on now. So it's by the Collection IG, and it takes place in 1961 after humanity developed the net society that depended on information networks despite their security issues. To improve security, a new network called the Metal Real Network, or Metal, for short, was developed. People's personal memories are reduced to information in place within protected virtual standalone organic cyber enclaves, enclaves, called publishable online. That's all on quotes. The result was a virtual explosion of creative freedom, as people felt safe enough to explore instincts and desires on metal that they would not otherwise explore in real life. Yeah. Yeah. Oh. It sounds very ghost in the show, Mike. Yeah. Exactly. I was in the same thing. I'm watching the trailer right now. How the hell would you sell this? Hey, it's by production IG. The same team is ghost in the show and everything. So it's like, I mean, I'm sure it'll look amazing and it'll be badass and shit like that. I'm definitely going to check it out. It's just one of those. That's kind of like, hey, this sounds like ghost in the show, just slightly different. So. Yeah. At first it sounded like interesting, like, oh, that's kind of cool. I'm an IT kind of guy, so it's like, hey, kind of a neat idea. But then you start reading more about it. It's like, that's complicated and kind of what it's supposed to be. And you know what it reminds me of? I read a lot of Tom-- well, not a lot of Tom Clancy books, but their net force series is online kind of the same way. Basically, in a nutshell, they go online, but they sit in like a virtual suit, and they're like, they go online. It's like they're in a big virtual world. And they can do everything. But in the case of this Tom Clancy series, they figure out the safe solve crimes and stuff online in these virtual worlds. I mean, that's kind of thing at first. I like this shit or something. No, it's not. Dude, Tom Clancy's not for kids. Well, no, I mean, the net for-- I don't know. It sounds very, um-- Yeah, I thought the net force was-- Even shows like Yu-Gi-Oh! Explored this and what we got. Yeah. Fair hard parents, what? But, um, all right. Yeah. Move on again to the one that you seem to be a little excited about. You can talk about is on Crystal Blaze. Crystal Blaze, yes. Gun and liquor for the promo. Hey, nothing better like that. Looks like some bourbon. Okay. Anyway, it's, uh, it looks to be an action. Uh, it's kind of sci-fi. Mashed. Uh, it looks a lot like, uh, Cowboy Bebop, but then you got a lot of elements. Of, like, super human rights. Unnaturalness. Basically, you're there in a rundown city called Langstown. What a crappy name. Shoe, who runs a detective agency with three assistants. Um, and then one day, a moment without a memory just walks into his office. And then he just forces his friend to his own past. And I guess that'd be really cool just because, uh, you know, it's-- I, uh, yeah. I don't know. It just sounds like a really neat premise. I really can't explain it, but there's gotta be a good reason to get the dig through his past. And basically, what I like about these kind of shows is they show the character in one way of light, but then by the time the show ends, you look at the character in a whole different kind of light and say, "Wow," you know, when the show first started, it was kind of, you know, gives a jerk or a hard ass, or however they portray him. I think it's kind of cool. And the whole element of, uh, using, uh, like spiritual forces or inhuman forces kind of, kind of brings kind of a cool touch, in my opinion. For Shoe's own. Yes. Yeah. Mm-hmm. [chuckles] Yeah, that's about it. All right. It's the same show with, uh, Wisk-- by a glass of whiskey and a revolver from-- Yeah. Yes. Oh, okay. A whiskey and a bourbon, my bad. Oh, whatever that was, I don't know. Well, it's something liquor. You should start talking, even under age. Yeah, I don't know. I'm probably never gonna drink. Yeah, you said that now. Well, I take turn 21. That's it, you can be a drunk or anything. Maybe. Let's just say you turn 21 and, uh, you're just like, "Oh, I'll try a beer." And they're like, "All right." [chuckles] You'll come on here. All right. Ninja Turtles is the best anime. Man, I have a friend that would swear by that. He's really frickin' annoying. God. He's a massive splinter. Oh, he's got, like, a thing for splinter. It's weird. Anyway, talking about moving on to less creepy. Um, let's talk about... Ninja Turtles. Thank you for that. [chuckles] [sighs] [chuckles] Sorry, I just shut my brain. You need to be lush. Uh, let's talk about Library Wars. Total show content, so. Because, honestly, this concept just sounds like the most awesome thing ever. Where's Waldo versus, um... Just, just let it go, man. You're never gonna be able to get this handy. [chuckles] And, basically, in the future, information's so important. Or something like that. And... So, now, there's this special force that's brought together. That's basically their task is to defend libraries. To, um... Keep, um... I'm sorry. You bastard! You had to do that little snicker there. But... Basically, it's these people that have to work together to protect these libraries. It's, like, this armed force that's job is to protect libraries. One man. One library card. One force. Library Wars. Coming to a theater near you. It's by production IT, too. So, it could be... It's definitely one I'm gonna check out just because I'll... Out there, the concept is. And I love out there concepts. [chuckles] All right. I don't know either of you have any more that you want to mention. Before I give, give me my, give my last one. Not really, I'm... No, all right. I'm gonna pick in two or three at best. And by the time I get to that, there'll be one show I'm watching full time. So, and... And it'll be so later. But... Exactly. I'm thinking about Kyber, uh, premiering on the tenth, but... Beyond Bad, um, nothing else. Well, the one show that I want to mention last, that... Around this up is the new Golgo 13 series, which is something I definitely want to check out. We haven't heard of Golgo 13. It's one of the longest running mongas in history. And... It's, um... Basically, a new... A new series based on this mongas. It's the first TV series it's received. It's never had a TV series before, but it's about... This, um... It's essentially a spy. He's almost like a James Bond kind of thing. Named Duke Togo, whose... Code name is Golgo 13, and he's, um... And he does, goes around doing different, um... Jobs for different kinds of governments or groups and things. And it's got a lot of standalone stories and... Essentially, yeah, like a hardcore James Bond. And... It's really cool to see that they're finally doing a real adaptation of it. It's been around for a long time, and it's definitely, it's essentially going to be very badass. The question is, what it comes down to with it is how well done it is. But if it's done well, I think... Duke Togo, making it. Um... The answer studio. Who? Exactly. How's that? Uh... Let me see what else I've done. Oh, they did faded flag. Which is, uh... That's the only other show they have. Their credit is flag. Oh, and that hit America Shores, so... But, um... I mean... It looks like something that's gonna... I assume it's gonna be awesome, if it's done right. If it's not done, it's gonna suck. I'm definitely gonna check it out, just because, you know, spies and shooting and... Epic win? Yes. Yes. Sure. Epic win. Why not? Well, I guess for now, let's summarize it up. Everyone picked the one, I guess, picked one show that if you had to choose one thing, what would it be, basically? Well, someone else got first time picking my hand. Okay. Well, if I had to choose, I would probably say... Crystal Blaze. Just 'cause I kind of like the premise and where they're going with it. I think it could be a really cool idea, but... You never really know. No, alright. And you, I see. Code, yes. Season 2, R2, whatever. Oh, yeah. Excited about that one. Yeah. What does the R stand for? I have no clue. I've seen it in other shows too, I guess. Like, round or something? Probably something like that. Yeah. Well, and that leaves me and I'm going to have to choose Soul Eater. Because I think it's going to be awesome. In every, in pretty much every way and I can't wait to watch it in a week or so, in a little over a week, I guess now. 'Cause... What I've read I really enjoyed and I know Bones makes a good show. So, and with that, I think we're going to close up our Season Preview. Yes, and oh, it's fun and glory. Mm-hmm. We're going to have to end our, um, close out some, our awesomeness. Indeed. It's hard to do sometimes, but... Well, basically, I guess, just do a little housekeeping before we leave. Um, basically, I wanted to remind everybody to check out the blog at abenzi.animateblogger.net and to send us some emails. Tell us what you think. Spread the word. Um, yeah. Email us at abonsipodcast@gmail.com or anything you want to say. If there's anything you want to hear us talk about. Oh. Can I tell you how much I suck? Yeah. Get it yourself. Um, yeah, anything.
