Warui Deshou: An Anime Podcast Podcast

"Warui Deshou" is a Japanese phrase that roughly translates to "It will be bad." And, we believe we make bad content...but we also believe that very thing can be good when there's enough love and fun put into it! Hosts and friends Doc and Shadon love anime and really enjoy talking about it. For hours at a time. Each episode they will discuss a different anime show/movie and will aim to make you think and make you laugh. They're just as likely to unabashedly gush about how cool a character is as they are to launch into a long aside of thematic analysis. Bad puns and impressions may also appear Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/waruideshou/support

    Galaxy Express 999 The Movie

    All aboard, anime fans! Join us as we punch our ticket to space adventure, science fantasy, and beautiful melancholy. Listener, you're on a one way train to a three hour discussion of 1979's Galaxy Express 999 The Movie! We talk about Leiji Matsumoto, the Leijiverse, Rintaro, and some of the notable seiyuu. We discuss Maetel, Tetsuro, Emeraldas, Harlock, and all your favorites. We get into this film as a story about class struggle, Matsumoto's depictions of women, and how certain scenes affected us now that the original creator of the Leijiverse is sadly no longer with us.

    Marriage Story

    Hello, friends! We actually released two pods this month! Who'd have guessed it could happen again? This episode we are talking about the 2019 Noah Baumbach film "Marriage Story" starring Matoko Kusanagi and Kylo Ren! In all seriousness, we both really liked this movie and we hope you enjoy our chat about how it goes in on the American legal system, what we thought of all the performances, how the film is disarmingly funny at times (often because of its subject matter rather than in spite of it), stimulates reflections on relationships and fatherhood, and just generally creates awareness and empathy in us.

    The Terminator & Terminator 2: Judgment Day

    Doc & Shadon have come back from a war torn future to talk to you all about a couple of really cool James Cameron movies, The Terminator and Terminator 2: Judgment Day! If you're not super old like us, you might not remember how mind-blowing these films were at the time or how important they were to pop culture and the near-term future of action sci-fi cinema. On the other hand, if you are on old head, then come soak up the nostalgia as we discuss our favorite scenes, smart decisions the movies make, and get annoyed at the T2 trailer.   Enjoying   this podcast?
