On today's episode of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake, we're channeling some spooky vibes and taking a look at Blue Exorcist. This series focuses on a good-natured delinquent named Rin Okumura, who just so happens to be the son of Satan. *gasp* Alongside his brother Yukio, Rin enrolls at the prestigious True Cross Academy in order to become an Exorcist. Officially sanctioned by the Vatican (as religious scholars have confirmed), Exorcists fight to protect the human realm of Assiah against the demonic forces of Gehenna. Remember to stock up on Triple-C Holy Water and call Mephisto to arrange a carpool. We hope you'll join us as the story of Blue Exorcist ignites. *gasp again*

The leaves are changing, the pumpkin spice is flowing, and the Dragon Balls are being used for nefarious purposes yet again. We'll watch as Goku and his friends as they fight to save the Earth on a (slightly) cinematic scale. First, in Dragon Ball Z: Dead Zone, the Z Fighters face Garlic Jr. and his band of spice-themed henchmen. Next, the criminally underrated Dr. Wheelo unveils his plan to steal Goku's body (even if Chi-Chi disapproves) in Dragon Ball Z: The World's Strongest. We hope you'll join us for this action-packed anime double feature...just don't expect too much sass from Shenron, here on Anime Was (No)t A Mistake.

On today's episode of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake, our humble little podcast finally returns to its roots. Join us for a deep dive into a world of cybernetics and existentialism as we watch Mamoru Oshii's 1995 masterwork Ghost in the Shell. Major Motoko Kusanagi is a cyborg serving Public Security Section 9 in the not-to-distant future of 2029. The Major and her fellow agents are determined to apprehend the mysterious cyber-terrorist known as the Puppet Master. This mission puts them on a collision course with dangerous criminals, questions about the nature of humanity, and a giant spider robot. Though we've moved on from piracy, it might still be a good idea to make sure your network is secure...

Anime Was (Not) A Mistake continues the swashbuckling theme with Disney's Treasure Planet.  On this episode, we discuss the awful week in general anime-based pop culture, while assuring the world that we are all still here. Next, we revisit the Disney vault in order to offer our opinions on one of the films that supposedly "tanked Disney animation." There are plenty of ships here, but perhaps not the ones you might be expecting. Listen and ride on your own Solar Sail! Also Happy Birthday Dan, hope this podcast was a good father figure for you!

Anime Was (Not) A Mistake brings the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise with the fifth installment Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. With a movie full of zombie sharks, a father/daughter relationship set in the stars, and Javier Bardem's scintillating accent what could go wrong? Apparently a lot. No, you aren't smelling low tide but, perhaps the plot of this movie? Can we plunder the treasures of this film franchise, or is it better left to the depths? Join our crew and listen?

According to our sources this is this the most expensive movie to ever be created...does it pay off? Stick around and find out.  Can you do some "mermaid math" and make a grown mermaid cry? Find the secret of eternal youth through listening.

Anime Was (Not) a Mistake is back once again to finally fulfill the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise trilogy with Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. We mourn a friend's loss of a Wii by reconsidering our pieces of eight.  In this episode, we discuss why this film "feels a bit too long" as we search for a true Pirate King.  Hoist Your Colors, and join the podcast revolution as AW(N)AM determines the true "Pirate Queen." We are off to Shipwreck Cove in order to elect our new leader, but will you release us from our earthly bonds? Only you can decide by listening, being halfway through this franchise we assure anime is coming, so board our crew. Is the Kraken OP?
