On this episode, join our small host trio of Dennis, Kate, & Karen for part 2 of our Slayers Try miniseries, covering episodes 57 through 61. This batch of episodes has less pinball antics, but more Filia related content. Other talking points include a Zelgadis fan on the animation staff, golden dragon workout gear, what's another word for old, trying to remember Almayce's weapon, and more Xellos being Xellos. So keep your hands and arms inside the podcast vehicle at all times until the episode comes to a complete stop, and whatever you do, don't eat the Dradora Surprise.

On this episode, join hosts Ed, Karen, Kate, Garrett, & Dennis as we discuss the 1998 OVA series Kite, also known as A Kite in Japan. Is this hentai or not? There's a lot of tough subject matter to discuss in this one, so this episode is not for everyone. But between the sex and the violence, is there enough in this revenge story that has garnered praise from some noteworthy Hollywood film makers along with inspiring a No Doubt music video? Let's find out more about our young assassins.
