    Episode 187 – Live at AnimeJapan 

    AnimeJapan has come and gone... a while ago, with how late this show is, but with it comes a lot of big announcements of a VERY big summer season coming up, and we're going to lay out the details for what's poised to be a rom-com-heavy July along with the usual updates and menageries that the strange and bizarre anime industry has on offer, like a weird pseudo-incestuous corporate offspring, HiDive losing and gaining some shows this month, Netflix viewer data, a new paid 'adult' platform, and most importantly of all: GAY ANGEL TWINKS. Thanks for your patience with this show. We'll be back in May. intro - The Day The Earth Blew Up deserves the world 7:57 - main stories 45:17 - AnimeJapan 2025 1:27:13 - other announcements 1:59:42 - home video releases 7:57 - Crunchyroll and Aniplex form production venture Hayate Inc. 15:05 - Gachiakuta set for Crunchyroll in July 18:24 - TRIGUN STARGAZE coming in 2026 20:22 - SK8 the Infinity OVA now on Crunchyroll (and an old Bones show too) 24:27 - the “final movie” for Sound!

    April Update

    No, this is not an April Fools Day joke. Things have been pretty slow and rough for a lot of outside reasons and circumstances that have prevented our next episode from being up in a timely manner. Burnout and exhaustion sucks. The next episode - AnimeJapan 2025 - will be up later in the week. New episodes will likely resume in May. Thank you for your time and patience.

    Episode 186 – St. Patrick’s Day Nightmare

    In Memory Dave Mallow (1948-2025) George Lowe (1957-2025) The ides of "Smarch" are upon us and they've gotten off to a stupid start. Alas, we're still here doing our thing to help alleviate the continued existential dread we all have to deal with in the world. We've got Amazon getting back into the anime simulcast game in a big way, Crunchyroll trying to make good with a big partner of theirs, Viz kickstarting convention season with a pair of sizable announcements of their own, and some dates for some upcoming seasons that will - at the very least - get a reaction out of folks. Also, for the next little while, these episode titles will borrow from Space Ghost Coast to Coast as an ongoing tribute. We'll miss you, George. intro - why we take political potshots for our mental health 16:45 - main stories 1:02:00 - announcements and updates 1:24:57 - awards worth mentioning (r/anime and Anime Trending) 1:37:42 - home video releases (April/May) 16:45 - Amazon shadowdrops the Magilumiere Magical Girls Inc. dub 22:47 - Amazon secures Gundam GQuuuuuuX 29:40 - Crunchyroll secures MHA Vigilantes (and got spooked by Toho) 35:12 - Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle dated for September 37:15 - Princess Mononoke 4K restoration premiering in IMAX this month 39:42 - Lazarus premiering on Toonami on April 5 43:24 - Viz at ECCC: Yaiba premieres in April 46:14 - Black Torch anime announcement 56:26 - some manga business news 58:36 - Devil May Cry (Netflix) trailer and cast additions 59:58 - Aurora Animation Studio formally announced 1:02:00 - Tenchi Muyo 1997 comic reprint Kickstarter to be launched 1:05:18 - Witch Watch dub leads 1:10:39 - Plus-Sized Elf dub now on HiDive 1:12:10 - Our Last Crusade season 2 resumes in April 1:14:06 - Shield Hero season 4 premieres in July 1:17:06 - One Punch Man season 3 premieres in October 1:18:39 - Frieren season 2 premieres in January 2026 1:19:51 - Suikoden anime announced, details TBA 1:21:48 - Moonrise finally premiering on Netflix in April 1:22:28 - Dead By Daylight adding Kaneki from Tokyo Ghoul 1:24:57 - r/anime Awards 1:31:00 - Anime Trending Awards Tenchi Muyo comic Kickstarter link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/armigerentertainment/tenchi-muyo-original-omnibus-edition Apple Podcasts – https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/podcastona/id1348141210?mt=2 Spotify – https://open.spotify.com/show/2JZLO3LfoeHepomejTw4TP iHeartRadio – https://www.iheart.com/podcast/256-podcastona-43099114/ TuneIn – https://tunein.com/podcasts/Podcasts/PodcastONA-p1249922/ As always, check out surrealresolution.com for more content, updates on the show, our continued news posts, reviews, and our fellow podcasts.

    Episode 185 – The Long-Awaited Reunion!

    Yes, the world may be on fire and/or a frigid wasteland at the same time, but we're still here and still kicking. And to prove that there is still some good in the world (along with football YouTuber Tom Grossi raising over a million dollars for charity in one week) there's a very long-awaited announcement: NO. 6 IS GETTING A NEW NOVEL. Let's hope that the reunion will, indeed, be coming for those boys. And along with that, we have the news of BOCCHI THE SECOND SEASON happening, Masaaki Yuasa starting up a new studio, an hour's worth of book announcements from several publishers (even from Tokyopop, but just briefly), Fate/stay night airing on a... *curious* cable TV channel, some ripples in the Gundam pipeline, the recent AnimEigo "town hall" announcements, and a whole lot of dumb shenanigans to help distract all of you from the real world at large. And if all else fails, just wait for the Canada gooses to begin their attack. They'll never see it coming. intro - winter’s almost over 8:45 - main stories 48:15 - book announcements 1:44:30 - announcements and updates 2:15:04 - home video releases 8:45 - Masaaki Yuasa establishes a new studio 13:11 - Kadokawa builds their empire further 15:37 - The Guy She Was Interested In Wasn’t a Guy at All anime announced 19:24 - BOCCHI THE SECOND SEASON 22:40 - No. 6 gets a new novel after 14 years 24:47 - My Dress-Up Darling ends in its next chapter 29:41 - the Zombie Land Saga movie still lives 33:04 - a new live-action Gundam film project announced 41:35 - a new Avatar sequel series greenlit at Nickelodeon 48:15 - Kodansha USA book announcements 59:33 - Seven Seas book announcements 1:16:34 - sadly, Tokyopop has more BL titles 1:20:20 - Yen Press book announcements 1:36:33 - Viz licenses the Kingdom manga 1:44:30 - so, about Fate/stay night UBW on television… 1:49:51 - J Balvin guest starring in Solo Leveling 1:55:11 - GKIDS releasing LOVE & POP (Hideaki Anno) in theaters 1:56:29 - BOCCHI THE ROCK! recap movies and more Touken Ranbu now on Crunchyroll 2:00:21 - Disney backlog dubs hitting Hulu in March (The Fable, Tokyo Revengers, Murai In Love) 2:01:40 - Samurai Pizza Cats: The Video Game is a real thing coming in 2026 2:06:06 - Vampire Hunter D coming to theaters in April 2:06:49 - the recent AnimEigo “town hall” announcements 2:15:04 - misc. home video releases (WB, Anime Limited, AnimEigo, Aniplex) 2:18:04 - GKIDS/Shout Studios releases (Summer Wars, APFTTU, Wolf Children) 2:19:24 - Sentai May releases (Jellyfish Can’t Swim in the Night, Insomniacs After School) 2:22:17 - Crunchyroll May releases (Iruma-kun, One Piece) Apple Podcasts – https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/podcastona/id1348141210?mt=2 Spotify – https://open.spotify.com/show/2JZLO3LfoeHepomejTw4TP iHeartRadio – https://www.iheart.com/podcast/256-podcastona-43099114/ TuneIn – https://tunein.com/podcasts/Podcasts/PodcastONA-p1249922/ As always, check out surrealresolution.com for more content, updates on the show, our continued news posts, reviews, and our fellow podcasts.

    Episode 184 – The Cold Winter’s Arrival.

    It's been... quite a month for a lot of us. For a lot of reasons. For the foreseeable future, we're all going to be on our own for a while, and we're all going to be depending on each other for help, support, and even survival. And we're all probably going to need more time to ourselves when we need a break from everything, hence why this show is going up so late. Again, it's been "a month" for the ages. But, as long as we all have breath in our lungs and a drive to distract, we'll keep doing these shows for all of you. If only because we all need a break from everything, once in a while. We've got Discotek Day announcements, some thoughts on the top shows of 2024, GKIDS playing with big boy money, Macross finally going up on Disney+ (and Hulu), and more random tangents all over the place. intro - we’re all on our own together 9:18 - Discotek Day announcements 1:05:31 - ANN’s top 10 anime of 2024 1:19:52 - main-ish news items 2:16:18 - home video releases 1:19:52 - Miles Thomas’ ANN report on isekai 1:33:52 - a lot of Viz book announcements 1:40:51 - the dub cast for Sakamoto Days 1:49:25 - Netflix gets Ippo 1:51:26 - Hulu/Disney+ FINALLY gets Macross up 1:55:01 - Sony bounces back at Bloomberg with… a new Crunchyroll manga app (and other projects) 2:06:34 - Witch Watch getting a theatrical premiere in March 2:11:41 - GKIDS gets BIG BOY MONEY with Gundam (GQuuuuuux) 2:14:51 - Signal.MD merging with Production I.G 2:16:18 - Sentai April releases (Princess Principal, Urusei Yatsura) 2:21:35 - March and April home video releases (Undead Unluck, Ghost Cat Anzu, MHA You’re Next) 2:26:41 - Crunchyroll April releases (Shangri-La Frontier, Berserk of Gluttony) Apple Podcasts – https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/podcastona/id1348141210?mt=2 Spotify – https://open.spotify.com/show/2JZLO3LfoeHepomejTw4TP iHeartRadio – https://www.iheart.com/podcast/256-podcastona-43099114/ TuneIn – https://tunein.com/podcasts/Podcasts/PodcastONA-p1249922/ As always, check out surrealresolution.com for more content, updates on the show, our continued news posts, reviews, and our fellow podcasts.

    Episode 183 – The Not-So-Daijoubu Culture.

    NOTE: parts of the audio from the first 34 minutes of this episode are missing due to technical difficulties. As 2024 comes to a close, we have one last show as all of the stars seemed to align just right with the added benefit of a very hefty gift bestowed to all of us from Bloomberg - a not-so-lovely exposé on Crunchyroll and their corporate culture that we spent 45 minutes dissecting and lambasting. Quite the added extra for a show that just supposed to be about Jump Festa, but yes, the major happenings from Jump Festa are here as well, from the new changes to One Piece to the next stretch of My Hero Academia and even some not-so-confirmed promises from the ever-so-slow and procrastinatory overlords at MAPPA. There's also some talk about some upcoming new seasons for some fan favorites and one more book roundup for the year, but we all know why you're here - it's for the Crunchyroll talk. Again, it's quite a doozy, and a hell of a doozy to close the year out on. We'll see you back here in the new year for more fun shenanigans in our ever present strive for survival - mainly on the "bluer skies" of the internet, if you know you know. intro - Sonic 3 and the Timecop paradox 10:20 - business talk 1:06:38 - other main stories 1:24:00 - Jump Festa 2024 1:58:51 - home video releases 10:20 - Toho to acquire 19.7% stake in Studio Orange 15:02 - Sony to acquire majority 10% stake on Kadokawa 21:42 - the Bloomberg report on Crunchyroll and their MANY terrible issues 1:06:38 - a lot of stuff went up on Crunchyroll with no notice (Golden Kamuy OVAs, Kizumonogatari, given Hiiragi Mix) 1:07:47 - Rascal/Bunny Girl dub and more coming to Hulu in January 1:09:10 - Toonami Rewind is shutting down 1:10:02 - several second seasons announced and confirmed (DANDADAN, Ranma, Skip & Loafer, My Dress-Up Darling, Magilumiere) 1:12:28 - AnimEigo launches a new sub-label 1:13:41 - one more Yen Press book roundup for the year 1:22:11 - THIS JUST IN: Mamoru Hosoda’s new movie is announced 1:23:23 - JOJODAY coming in April 1:24:00 - One Piece gets a problematic new Franky and a late new time slot 1:30:28 - MHA Vigilantes and season 8 announced for 2025 1:39:33 - Kaiju No. 8 and SPY x FAMILY new seasons coming 2025 1:40:25 - Witch Watch previewed, starts in April 1:42:36 - Chained Soldier gets a new studio and new cast members 1:43:48 - Mission: Yozakura Family season 2 coming 2026 1:44:46 - Aharen-san wa Hakarenai season 2 coming in the spring 1:45:35 - more details on Takopi’s Original Sin 1:47:39 - the MAPPA section (Hell’s Paradise and Chainsaw Man) 1:58:31 - Sentai March releases (Ragna Crimson) 1:59:42 - Crunchyroll March releases (Shangri-La Frontier, 100 Girlfriends, SPY x FAMILY, Jujutsu Kaisen) Apple Podcasts – https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/podcastona/id1348141210?mt=2 Spotify – https://open.spotify.com/show/2JZLO3LfoeHepomejTw4TP iHeartRadio – https://www.iheart.com/podcast/256-podcastona-43099114/ TuneIn – https://tunein.com/podcasts/Podcasts/PodcastONA-p1249922/ As always, check out surrealresolution.com for more content, updates on the show, our continued news posts, reviews, and our fellow podcasts.

    Episode 182 – The Christmas Colony Drop!

    Christmastime is almost here, and there's a Gundam coming down everyone's stocking in the new year! A pleasant surprise, for sure, and a good tiding of cheer in the wake of Crunchyroll changing the rules of their "awards" show in totally inconspicuous fashion that has nothing to do with a certain show airing this year about aliens and ghosts. And along with that, there are some fun movies coming out (and some that are not-as-fun), some notable dub casts announced for the new year, the Rascal dub situation is FINALLY mostly sorted out after an entire year, and a look at how the manga sales went for the year and who's at the top of the mountain for 2024 - along with much more, with one more show to come before the new year. It's going to be Jump Festa. Call it a late Christmas gift from all of us to all of you. EDITOR'S NOTE: Well, this took a lot of time to get together, didn't it? Apologies for the delay, this was recorded over a week ago and it's been a particularly rough week, so that's why it took so long to get out. Depression and burnout are some real bitches, let me tell you. intro - microphones, yuletide, and Big Luigi 10:47 - main stories 1:01:37 - announcements and updates 1:50:28 - home video releases 10:47 - Crunchyroll changes their awards show rules 22:47 - Demon Slayer and Attack on Titan films coming stateside in 2025 27:27 - Netflix leak update 30:45 - the third ZENSHU trailer reveal 36:17 - Takopi’s Original Sin manga getting an anime 40:28 - Kodansha Print Club launches 42:48 - Gundam GQuuuuuuX announced from Sunrise and khara 49:57 - Takeshi Koike directing a new Lupin the 3rd movie 52:45 - The Summer Hikaru Died set for Netflix, coming summer 2025 55:34 - Oricon manga sales rankings for 2024 1:01:37 - Code Geass refuses to die 1:06:38 - the year-long saga of the Rascal dub mystery is finally over 1:11:30 - Dragonball Daima dub starts in January 1:15:57 - The Colors Within dub cast leads 1:19:21 - another Fate/Strnage Fake update 1:23:24 - F/SN Heaven’s Feel films coming to Crunchyroll this week 1:24:49 - Unlimited Blade Works coming to TV (Toonami) soon? 1:30:22 - an unconfirmed Kagurabachi scoop? 1:35:58 - Nyaight of the Living Cat gets some fun music credits 1:37:14 - more Black Butler and Ascendance of a Bookworm on the way 1:38:34 - You and I are Polar Opposites anime announced 1:41:27 - The Invisible Man and His Soon-to-Be Wife anime announced 1:42:30 - Hell Mode anime announced 1:44:38 - 10 Dance live-action film coming to Netflix 1:46:20 - anime awards season begins 1:49:19 - NIS America reportedly out of the home video business 1:50:28 - Perfect Blue 4K coming in Japan 1:50:50 - Sentai February releases (Chained Soldier, My Isekai Life, SNAFU) 1:51:55 - Sailor Moon movie collection Blu-ray (Viz) 1:52:19 - Mashle and Kizumonogatari Blu-ray sets (Aniplex) 1:52:57 - The First Slam Dubk 4K and A Place Further Than the Universe coming in February 1:54:06 - Discotek February releases (Digimon Adventure 02, Cutey Honey, Nanoha StrikerS) Apple Podcasts – https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/podcastona/id1348141210?mt=2 Spotify – https://open.spotify.com/show/2JZLO3LfoeHepomejTw4TP iHeartRadio – https://www.iheart.com/podcast/256-podcastona-43099114/ TuneIn – https://tunein.com/podcasts/Podcasts/PodcastONA-p1249922/ As always, check out surrealresolution.com for more content, updates on the show, our continued news posts, reviews, and our fellow podcasts.

    Episode 181 – The Good Fight Continues On.

    So… things may be a bit rough and not make sense, and the future may not be as bright as we’d all like it to, but we’re going to keep doing what we do for all of you as well as all of us - if only to serve as a momentary distraction from the world around us. The fun and shenanigans will continue, even if the real world reminds us how cold it may be, but we’re going to fight the good fight going forward, be it big or small. And so should all of you since we’re all going to be in this together. Preferably on the platform of "bluer skies," too, hint hint.
