Show 82 concludes with Daryl’s review of Bartender and Clarissa’s review of One Outs. But first, a special voice mail from the ONE AND ONLY Vic Mignogna, who tells us all about his experience at Whack-a-Nerd at Anime Festival Orlando! Keep your eyes on our Youtube channel for possibly related material in the near future.

You should go to our Youtube channel and feast your eyes on the majesty. And also.

Review: Bartender (1:56 – 28:46)
Clarissa has selected for Daryl this 11 episode series from 2006. It’s low-key and low keyframe, but this is the sort of thing that personifies seinen…of a sorts. The series was written by Yasuhiro Imagawa during his “I’m done with directing, I’ll just stick to writing stuff” phase which was basically a seven year stretch between Seven of Nana (his attempt to ride the moe wave which failed because it’s actually for little girls only instead of pretending to be/also catering to older dudes) and Shin Mazinger Z. This is the Golgo 13 of food anime. To find out WHY, listen on! TJ from Chicago thinks we should get Carl Horn as a guest on the show. We also think that, but unfortunately he has no microphone/headset/Skype or cell phone, so we’d have to get him when he’s at home and has nothing better to do. As they’d say in Super Hyper Mega Bloody Ultra Cosmo Death Extravaganza X-23 II: Electric Boogaloo, that’s our story and we’re…stuck with it.

Review: One Outs (28:46 – 58:22)
When Clarissa chooses the reviews, nobody wins but she! It’s about baseball which is fujoshi code talk for GET YOUR HOT YAOI HERE (paddle juggling optional but hopefully banned), but it’s also about gambling which is code talk for ZAWA ZAWA. For a reminder on what the deal is with gambling anime and such, do go back and listen to our review of Gambling Apocalypse Kaiji – The Suffering Pariah ~ The Ultimate Survivor. We just wanted an excuse to write out that full title. ZAWA!

Promo: R5 Central (58:22 – 58:54)
Mike Dent just hit his four year anniversary, which puts him at Show 60 on the dot. For this relatively laser-free edition, he’s interviewing Bey Logan, the smartest English-speaking man on the planet when it comes to Asian action cinema and thus the best candidate to run Dragon Dynasty. The quality of some of the latest DD releases were a little below their usually high standards, but all that gets covered in the interview. Be sure to leave your comments regarding what you think…over there, that is!

Closing (58:54 – 1:05:47)
The next episode of AWO…may take a little while to come out. But what else is new, right? We’ve all got panels at Anime Weekend Atlanta which is but a few short weeks away…so maybe we should start working on them! But once that’s over, Daryl will be losing his mind over Sword of the Stranger, Gerald’s throwing the kids out of the pool for Astro Fighter Sunred, and Clarissa couldn’t think of anything in time to counteract Daryl’s suggestion of Ristorante Paradiso so she’s doing that. In the meantime, Daryl did a second guest appearance on Anime 3000 which you can download here.

Just as a reminder, the contest is still going! Email us once with suggestions for all three of us regarding what we should review in a future episode! You may only suggest one title for each of us, and in order to win, all three of us must agree to each of our suggested reviewers. We will select at least one winner, and that person will receive a FABULOUS PRIZE. 10 runners-up will also receive FABULOUS PRIZES courtesy of Green Mustard Productions. So get those suggestions in!
