Anime Outsiders

On a really bad decision, the guys at The Other Side decided to watch this Eromanga Sensei show everyone’s talking about, and it’s safe to say no anime in recent memory has broke TOS the way this one did. This podcast ‘bout to bubble. But first, Cody does some housekeeping and tells everyone about the saddest group of people you’ll ever see!

Max, Andrew, and Cody continue down the road of the Summer 2017 season, finding all new realms of shit. But first, Cody takes a pit-stop to talk about a Dragonball YouTuber so bad mentioning his very name can send Cody into a triggered sperg-attack.

The boys at the Other Side take a look at the summer anime season, and it’s really fucking depressing. Horrendously so. So depressing and terrible that no description here can do it justice. You have never seen a season so packed with vapid anime series littered with moe blob waifus putting making body pillows and figurines to cover with cum on a higher priority than producing a watchable fucking show. So join us, for this waltz into Hell.

In preparation of the upcoming "A Centaur's Life" anime, one of the AO team members, Jackson Fall, decided to read the manga and was stunned by how unbelievably bad it was. Knowing Crunchyroll was primed to make this their new favorite when the anime came out, the TOS crew had to bring Jackson on to tell the world what’s in this thoroughly batshit insane series. As a bonus, Cody throws out a recommendation for a must-see anime, and explains how the anime fandom is becoming the new furry fandom.

On this funderful episode of TOS, Cody, Max, and Andrew take a look at the unbelievable trainwreck that is the anime industry’s PR. From Crunchyroll’s embarrassing twitter to their PR guy Miles, who may be the worst public relations person you’ve ever seen! And let’s not forget Kodonsha’s Twitter watching all their shows for you, FUNimation hiring despicable racists on their public relations team, and so much more! By the end of this episode, you’ll wonder how this god-awful industry stays afloat!

In this week’s episode of The Other Side, the guys talk about that Dragon Maid show all the weebs and industry twitters are obsessed with. But what’s really in this show? Is it just an innocent show about a dragon girl and her dragon girl friends? Of course it isn’t! So come along for the ride as TOS goes over all the pointless, plotless shenanigans of the show; the author’s dirty little secret; and how this show ahs elements so heinous you’re free to judge, mock, and deride anyone you know who’s a fan! Also, Cody takes some time to eulogize a show that was not only one of the greatest TV shows of all time, but helped to inspire TOS itself.

It’s another season overview, as the guys take a look at the spring anime season. Is this season another cesspool of moe garbage and uninspired crap, or are there some gems to be found here? Could anime finally be learning? We got Tanya last season, but is there yet another new IP worth watching? Or was Tanya a fluke? The answer to these questions and more on this episode of The Other Side!

The waltz through crappy ARGs and indie internet horror continues as the guys take a look at the original haunted video game story of Ben Drowned, and the horror-free horrorverse of the Fear Mythos. And the material based on it which are sights to behold. And as an added bonus, Cody even brings you a couple ARGs that aren’t terrible. One’s even pretty good!

The boys at the Other Side decide to take a look at the wonderful world of ARGs and internet indie horror, starting with the big Slenderman trilogy (Marble Hornets, Everyman Hybrid, and Tribe Twelve). You’re gonna want to strap yourselves in folks because this one is a DOOZY.

TOS brings back Riiser from The Webcomic Relief as a special guest to talk about the movie that proves that Masahi Kishimoto is now a whore who only cares about money; Boruto! Yes, the guys actually sat through this fucking embarrassment, and now you get to enjoy the journey through this waste of animation dollars, too!
