Wait Until Dark and maybe things will get better? We aren't original song composers on this podcast, but one thing is for sure, we are about to be the best students at blind school. Our Anime Was (Not) A Mistake Spooktacular 2025 celebration continues with Wait Until Dark (1967). When a doll full of drugs winds up in the hands of the world's greatest recent blind lady Susy Hendrix aka Audrey Hepburn, a group of criminals is about to cause some trouble and settle in for some high-tension scares. Can Susy use her wits to defeat these criminals and out play a villainous Alan Arkin? You will have to sit in the darkness and listen to find out.

Awakened from its icy slumber, our latest Spooktoberfest begins with John Carpenter’s 1982 cult classic The Thing. At a research base in Antarctica, twelve men are preparing for a long winter when things take an unexpected turn. An alien creature enters their midst in the form of a dog, but they soon discover that this entity can mimic the appearance and behavior of any living thing. Paranoia sets in as the group desperately tries to determine who among them is the murderous alien. R.J. MacReady, the camp’s helicopter pilot, attempts to lead the other men through this bizarre ordeal before it claims more lives. But as the Thing grows smarter and the group splinters apart, MacReady’s focus shifts from staying alive to winning at any cost. Even if help arrives, will they find a human being or something else entirely? We recommend learning how to speak Norwegian and not picking a fight with E.T. ahead of today’s spine-chilling episode of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake! It’s a bit too early for Halloween candy, but we do have J&B scotch whiskey…

Its a perfect way to bake a pretty cake on today's episode of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake. As we nearly reach the end of season one of Cardcaptor Sakura more mysterious questions emerge, as Sakura further develops her powers. Suddenly a strange teacher arrives with a past connection with Touya? Could Miss Mizuki be more magical than meets the eye? Also we wonder if a cake could be too sweet? Along with this some moral scruples of using both supernatural trading cards and Clow card doping emerge. I'm sorry Dan I'm going to have to seal that card, no matter how cute it is...

Join us for one tail of a tale as we continue the Baby Saga of Dragon Ball GT. With Sugoro exposed for cheating, his interdimensional Mario Party game collapses and allows Goku to escape. Finally reuniting with the Kais, Goku is informed that his current power will not be enough to stop Baby Vegeta. (Sure enough, even his mighty apprentice Uub struggles against the possessed Saiyan back on the Tuffle Planet.) Instead, Old Kai decides to regrow Goku’s tail so that he can reach a whole new level of power. With his tail back and training cut short, Goku returns to the Tuffle Planet to face Baby again. Unfortunately, Goku finds himself against the ropes even with the boost provided by his tail. While staring hopelessly up at Earth, a primal power awakens within Goku. His Golden Great Ape form emerges and begins laying waste to the new Tuffle Planet. Pan reaches out to the monstrous Goku to help him come to his senses, all while Baby schemes to gain that power for himself. Grind some coffee beans, eat some chocolate, and ready those Blutz Waves as Anime Was (Not) A Mistake finally ascends to Super Saiyan 4!!!

Baby fights and possesses his way through the Saiyans of Earth until finding a true prize: Vegeta out shopping. Having gathered all of the Black Star Dragon Balls, Goku and his friends return home only to get a cold reception. The entire planet, minus Mr. Satan and Buu, is already under the control of Baby. Using Vegeta as his main host, Baby reveals his ultimate plan for revenge against the Saiyans. A wish is granted, a new world appears, and a hero falls.

Another round of Sinister Six comes to a close, but our monkey business is far from over. 1976’s A*P*E confronts us with an all-too-familiar question: “What If King Kong, But No Plot?” The answer may shock you. A 36-foot-tall gorilla escapes his captors at sea, battles an extra-large shark, and then makes landfall in South Korea. Also visiting the country is movie star Marilyn Baker, quickly joined by her old flame, “jokester” journalist Tom Rose. The Korean and U.S. militaries are hesitant to believe reports about A*P*E roaming the countryside, so the giant monster manages to elude them for about 80 minutes of runtime. Not helping matters is Col. Davis being perpetually drunk and Capt. Kim giving Tom free jeeps. Ultimately, the only thing capable of stopping A*P*E is the viewer turning the movie off once the 15-minute montage finale begins. Remember to pack your puppets and be cautious while paragliding into today’s poorly scaled episode of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake!

Its a Brazzle Dazzle Day on this very special episode of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake's Sinister Six series. Join us for a New England Disneyland romp as we sail on mythical wings to Passamaquoddy in 1977's Pete's Dragon. Not since Bedknobs and Broomsticks has their been a stupider musical that is somehow so crucial to Jonathan's persona. From fleeing waifs, hopeful lighthouse ballads, snakeoil salesmen, and kegs of beer, the only thing seemingly lacking in this film is one dopey animated dragon. Dan certainly wishes there was more, but what does he know? Its not easy to find a sinister six pick we will all love, after all.  We all better make some room for Elliot, as he will need ample space to Sratcha-His-Assey!

Bonds and mustaches are tested as we continue the Baby Saga of Dragon Ball GT. Defeated and frozen in carbonite, Goku and his friends are teleported to the heart of Dr. Myuu’s sinister operation. Giru saves our heroes (thanks to an off-screen scheme with Trunks), but an even darker secret is slumbering within the lab. Baby, the ultimate machine mutant, awakens and escapes Planet M2. Back on Earth, the Z Fighter’s peaceful lives are interrupted when an empowered Baby arrives on the scene. Baby failed to defeat Goku back in space, but he’s confident that possessing the other Saiyans will give him the strength he needs to conquer the universe. Make sure you have intergalactic health insurance and a really big ice cream cone for today’s extra-metallic episode of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake!
