On this episode, join hosts Garrett, Kate, Ed, and Dennis as we discuss the 1989 film Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland. Similar to our Unico watch, we discuss if this actually is an anime title or just anime adjacent? Many of your favorite dreams and least favorite nightmares as a child are featured, such as trains, clowns falling, monsters, magic, flying, derigibles, and a lot more. Except for that one nightmare when you're late for school or work and you don't have any bottoms on. So take a trip down to Slumberland with us, where you'll meet King Grandfather Santa, goat powered vehicles, a flying bed, and pajamas every which way you look. Hit that snooze button and keep on dreaming.

On this episode, join Dennis, Ed, Karen, Kate, and special guest Bryan Newton as we discuss the 2001 anime film Cowboy Bebop: Knockin' on Heaven's Door. Recorded on Halloween, and one of the few anime films that takes place during Halloween (on Mars), we felt it appropriate this time to do all this before the Netflix live action. We go over topics like favorite Halloween candy, Spike's cool headphone and flirty game, Sporky Dorky, body tape, all kinds of beans,  pumpkin parade floats, and so much more. Our second to last discussion about space cowboys in 2021.
Special thanks to Bryan for being on the show. Give him a follow at @DarkKingZoro

On this episode, Han returns after a long hiatus to join Dennis, Kate, and Ed for Megazone 23 Part 3. New characters with Eiji Takanaka, Ryo Narahara, and the mysterious characters of Sion, Jacob Halm, and Won Dai, plus the real Eve Tokimatsuri and not her digital persona. We have to get the Akira comparisons out of the way, along Eiji's current favorite game, Hard On II, just to get through this wild plot of a sequel. Did they succeed in adding to the story that seemed complete from Part 2? What of Shogo and his friends? Why can't E=X and Orange Amusement share network coverage? And is everyone just cool with Garland tech now? Quarter up because you got next on Hard On II, and listen in before you cycle out. Let's see what's up with Megazone 23 Part 3.

On this episode, join club members Ed, Karen, Kate, Garrett, and Dennis as they discuss Megazone 23 Part 2: Please Give Me Your Secret. Though the returning characters may look different, Shogo's back to kick some authoritative ass with the help of a new biker gang. The punk scene is alive and well, with more gruesome attacks by the Dezalg, a brand new Garland for Shogo, even more product placement, and a battle of ideals. Is it worth it growing up? Is humanity worth saving? Is any of this even real? How is Shogo drinking that virtual soda? And, is that Cyndi Lauper?

On this episode, join Dennis, Ed, Karen, and Kate as they discuss Megazone 23 OVA 1. One of the breakout hits of the early years of original video animation, we get to see all the tropes and other things we have taken for granted in modern anime with this 1985 release. Besides a great soundtrack and some potention inspiration for things like The Matrix and Dark City, there's also the sci-fi lineage from some of the minds behind Macross, Yamato, Gundam, Legend of the Galactic Heroes, Urusei Yatsura, and so much more. From government cover-ups, deepfake AI, prolific product placement, motorcycle robots, and the always fun plot explanation over a sex scene montage (which we call "sexplanation"), grab your leather biker gear and have a listen. Because it's time to get into the zone. The Megazone.
