Anime World Order Show # 86d – Remembering When Gainax Was Special

As unbelievable as it is to accept the fact that Hiroyuki Yamaga used to be capable of worthwhile output based on the absolute horseshit he says nowadays, it is true. This time, Gerald reviews his favorite anime movie of all time, Royal Space Force: The Wings of Honneamise.

Finding copies is becoming harder, but at least they’re not quite as expensive as they used to be. Right Stuf has a few copies as well, as does eBay.

NOTE: We know you people who’ve seen this movie (and some who have not!) want to immediately start commenting RIGHT NOW. We ask that you actually listen to this episode first and then abide by the requests put forth. This is, in all likelihood, a futile endeavor, but at least we tried.

Finally we get to the reviews for this episode! Clarissa reviews 5 cm Per Second by Makoto Shinkai, whose works we’ve not actually reviewed until now.

Oh sure, they may CLAIM to be a podcast dedicated to reviewing either anime you should be watching or anime you should be ashamed to be watching. But which is which? THAT is the question, the answer to which is the base metric upon which podcasters shall be judged. Their first episode was about Fist of the North Star and their latest episode at the time of posting is about Grappler Baki, which are as good a metric as any for determining the worthiness of any Internet being. Mind you, they also talk about videogames and live-action movies too. DAPDX better WATCH OUT.

Disclaimer: the Sean Ryan who hosts this podcast is NOT the same Shawn Ryan who created The Shield. I know, I had my hopes up too.
