Special Episode: Naruto Rebuttal

The common Naruto Fan Reaction to the Naruto Episode

The common Naruto Fan Reaction to the Naruto Episode

Because you asked for, and boy did you ask for it, Neil and I, along with Pablo Praino(interrupted from eating Tacos just to do this, TACOS!) come back once again to talk Naruto. But first, we explain our method of operation. We don’t need to watch every single episode of a show to say it’s bad or doesn’t grab you. I usually give a show about 8 episodes. I think that’s more than fair. But just to be even more fair, I read the whole manga. Pablo did more research too.

Topics Covered
Why Our Method Works
Not retracting a damn thing
Ok, it’s not 30 episodes of screaming
The endgame villain is still lame
Ninja Jesus!

Episode 94: Naruto!

Thank God it’s over!

Tonight we finally… FINALLY finish the Shonen Jump block with Naruto! We are joined with Pablo Praino to bring on the PAAAIIINNN! Man, are we glad we finshed Naruto.

None of us were really prepared for this show. We read from the Naruto Fan Wikia. Neil listens in awe of the ridiculousness.

Episode 93: Cartoons Based On Fighting Games


Street Fighter II Movie

Admit it. You got it for the shower scene.

Tonight we have JT from Saskatoon joining us on our first ever Live Broadcasted episode! And what do we talk about? Cartoons based on fighting games!

Surprisingly a lot of American productions in this list, but it’s still mostly anime. We again talk about the horrors on USA Cartoon Express while mostly trying not to repeat ourselves. But as bad as that was, some of the anime ain’t much better. I even mention my all-time worst anime experience on this episode.

Episode 91: Sports Anime


Ookiku Furikabutte's Maria

Play ball!

We’re joined this week by Kittyhawk, who has just landed in Australia! We talk about sports anime, a topic that we expected to be filled with sweaty, half-naked people and strangely erotic training montages. What we got was a bunch of soap operas with sports as a backdrop.

If you like sports, you might be interested in some of these. There’s a little something for everyone, whether you like baseball, soccer, rugby, kickboxing, wrestling, tennis, or even majong. (Yes, majong.) We also cover some of the manga.

After the show, we have our now-standard bonus segment, where we get an update from Kitthawk and talk about the upcoming Archie Comics gender swap issue, with pencils by our pal, Gisele Legace!
