Vintage Anime Club Podcast

A group of friends, a disc of anime, a bottle of wine...better make it two. We're an anime podcast taking a look back at some older anime titles on physical media, and seeing if they still hold up or not. Sometimes time lets us appreciate overlooked titles, while other instances require us to remove those rose-tinted glasses. So grab a glass of wine and have a listen.

    Episode 214 - Chekov's Underwear (City Hunter: Bay City Wars & Million Dollar Conspiracy)

    On this episode, join Garrett, Ed, Kate, & Dennis for a City Hunter Double Feature! We're talking about Bay City Wars along with Million Dollar Conspiracy. Both feature CIA agents, and both feature a lot of Ryo Saeba shenanigans. The bullets are flying, bombs are exploding, Ryo is perving, and Kaori is trying her best to keep him in check. And they got so many of your favorite 80s action movie tropes.  0:00:00 - Intro & Some Anime News 0:11:45 - The Watchlist: Spring 2025 Spoiler Edition 0:44:04 - Production Notes Again & Garrett's City Hunter History 0:48:31 - Bay City Wars Discussion 1:40:56 - Bay City Wars Final Thoughts 1:46:43 - Million Dollar Conspiracy Discussion 2:33:35 - Million Dollar Conspiracy Final Thoughts 2:43:27 - Voices & Kanpai Support the show by donating to our Ko-Fi link below or by purchasing City Hunter Classic Movies and TV Specials Collection on  Blu-ray through our Amazon affiliate link: https://amzn.to/446xsep Dennis: @ichnob | Ed: @ippennokuinashi | Garrett: @blkriku | Kate: @taikochan  Linktr.ee | Ko-Fi | RSS

    Episode 213 - Nookie Monster (City Hunter: .357 Magnum)

    On this episode, the club jumps into their first foray with City Hunter, as no one on the podcast is that familiar with the series. Join Dennis, Ed, Kate, and returning guests Pat of The Pat Chat podcast & Chika from the award winning Shoujo Sundae Podcast, as we cover City Hunter Movie 1: .357 Magnum. Ryo Saeba's pervertedness is cranked to eleven, as a famed pianist is caught in a cold war between East and West Gariela. The action is intense, the music is bopping, the bullets are flying, and Kaori's hammers are pounding (Ryo Saeba's head that is). The first of three movies we're covering, come hang with us for a bit in the mean streets of Tokyo. Special thanks to Pat (@patloika) & Chika (@chikasupreme) for joining us this epsiode!

    Episode 212 - Swordcery (Wrath of the Ninja: The Yotoden Movie)

    On this episode of the podcast, join Ed, Sam, Dennis, & Karen for their discussion about 1989's Wrath of the Ninja: The Yotoden Movie. It's actually a compilation film based on a three episode OVA series. Talking points include how three ninjas come together, ninja names might be hard to remember but ninja powers aren't, Nobunaga's anti-Buddha stance, crossing the streams, and comparing this to Ninja Scrolll but in a good way. 0:00:00 - Intro & Some Anime News 0:15:52 - The Watchlist 0:32:47 - Production Notes 0:40:53 - 08th Year of Tensho 1:00:43 - 09th Year of Tensho 1:13:30 - 10th Year of Tensho 1:34:28 - Voices, Final Thoughts, & Kanpai While out of print, used copies of Wrath of the Ninja are available at various online stores, but you can support the show by also renting/buying it from Prime Video: https://amzn.to/4dSgzZu Dennis: @ichnob | Ed: @ippennokuinashi | Karen: @ryacosplay | Sam: @essfive Linktr.ee | Ko-Fi | RSS

    Episode 211 - Sponsored by Supovitan C (Assemble Insert)

    On this episode, join club hosts Dennis, Ed, Kate, Karen, and returning host Caitlin to discuss 1989's Assemble Insert! Only one thing can stop this mecha gang from wrecking Tokyo: super strong idol singer Maron Namikaze, that's who. See her rise to the top of the charts and her fanbase's hearts. Just watch your surroundings, because there's a lot of collateral damage in this one. It's enough paperwork and phone call complaints to make the chief cry. But as long as there's a nearby video rental store and a morning pick-me-up energy drink, the Anti-Demon Seed brigade is on the case. 0:00:00 - Intro & Some Anime News 0:06:53 - The Watchlist 0:32:32 - Production Notes 0:39:14 - EP1: Part 1 1:17:22 - EP2: Part 2 1:54:34 - Voices, Final Thoughts, & Kanpai Unfortunately, Assemble Insert is currently out of print, but you can still support the show by donating to our Ko-Fi link below.

    Episdoe 210 - Soul Train (Night on the Galactic Railroad)

    On this episode, join Dennis, Garrett, Ed, Kate, & Karen for a discussion about Night on the Galactic Railroad. Two cat friends go on a journey through the stars and heavens with various passengers. Multiple Christian themes including crosses, hymns, a Sermon on the Mount homage, and dealing with the afterlife. But there's also the fantastical visuals with mysterious train stations, fields that go beyond the horizon, birds that become cookies, and a surprise appearance from The Titanic. 0:00:00 - Intro & Some Anime News 0:10:02 - The Watchlist 0:27:19 - Production Notes 0:44:07 - Festival of Stars 1:12:36 - Constellation Stations 1:39:10 - Friends to the End 2:16:05 - Voices, Final Thoughts, & Kanpai Unfortunately, Night on the Galactic Railroad is currently out of print, but you can still support the show by donating to our Ko-Fi link below.

    Episode 209 - El Ponyo Loco (Ponyo)

    It's our ninth anniversary! And on this episode, join Dennis, Ed, Garrett, Karen, & Kate as we return to the world of Studio Ghibli with Ponyo. It's a literal fish out of water story, with the most cutesy imagery for an apocalypse, and perhaps the coolest Ghibli mom. So put those elixers away, because that's what crabs crave. And hit up that deli counter, because Ponyo wants all of the ham. 0:00:00 - Intro & Some Anime News 0:12:06 - The Watchlist 0:37:50 - Production Notes 0:50:46 - Ponyo the Goldfish 1:19:50 - Ponyo the Human 1:52:03 - Sousuke's Trial 2:20:02 - Voices, Final Thoughts, & Kanpai Support the show by donating to our Ko-Fi link below or by purchasing Ponyo on  Blu-ray through our Amazon affiliate link: https://amzn.to/441Bh6a Dennis: @ichnob | Ed: @ippennokuinashi | Garrett: @blkriku | Karen: @ryacosplay | Kate: @taikochan  Linktr.ee | Ko-Fi | RSS

    Episode 208 - Miaka & the Tamahomies (Fushigi Yûgi 12 of 12)

    It's time for the Fushigi Yûgi finale! Join club hosts Kate, Karen, Dennis, Diana, & returning guest Kristen as we go over our final Fushigi Yûgi thoughts. Does Keisuke do enough to redeem himself from the last batch of episodes? Is all forgiven for Yui? Does Nakago deserve the sad backstory treatment? Unexpected kaiju battles, and the return of Force ghosts. It's got everything! 0:00:00 - Intro & Some Anime News 0:12:15 - The Watchlist (ft Faves of Winter 2025) 0:40:25 - Catching up on FY with Diana & Kristen 0:50:40 - EP49: Wedding Celebration 1:16:54 - EP50: Atonement 1:47:01 - EP51: Entrusted Hope 2:15:15 - EP52: For My Loved One 2:43:16 - Final Thoughts & Kanpai Special thanks to Kristen (@kristenmpath) for joining us again!
