- Brokusatsu Episode 29 - Ult. Nexus 11, Gokaiger 3&4 - T.E.L.L M.E A.B.O.U.T T.H.E Z.O.O
In Ultraman Nexus, we finally hit plot! We end this episode genuinely excited about the show, and hopeful that we can continue coverage! But to be honest, we've already recorded the next ep and this show suuuucks.
Gokaiger coverage starts at almost precisely 17:35 minutes in! If you hear jaunty chiptunes, you're in the right place.
In Pirate Sentai Gokaiger, we finally meet the mysterious man in black, who explains the premise behind the rest of the show! Spoiler alert: we gotta collect them all. Then, a focus episode for GokaiBlue, Joe Gibken. Swoooords!
FEATURING: Night Raid members succeeding in their jobs 100% without Komon being involved! A collectathon plot that actually comes together in a cohesive thematic way! Five, count 'em, FIVE blades! LET'S MAKE A SHOW OF IT!
Here's an article about that twitter I talk about towards the end of the ep: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/108566-Japanese-Superheroes-Encourage-Kids-to-Keep-Smiling

49 min - Brokusatsu Episode 28 - KRW 49, Gokaiger 1&2 - Rogue Trader Actual Play
Futo City is still here, but some things have changed. Terui is still attacking civillians, but it's kind of justified. Akiko is using the slipper of justice on herself. Mick the Cat hasn't murdered anybody in like, three weeks. And Shotaro is hard boiled, and he hates it. Is this how we go out, or is there one last wildcard in play? Find out, today!
And then in Pirate Sentai Gokaiger, we meet our crew! And a lot of other people! Like, 200 other goddang Legendary Heroes! This is going to be a real trip. But Sam already loves Luka, so I think we're off to a good start.
FEATURING: The least intimidating super-villain group ever! A shocking bodycount for a children's show! A bunch of references we barely get! LET'S MAKE A SHOW OF IT!
Gokaiger coverage starts at almost precisely 23 minutes in! If you hear jaunty chiptunes, you're in the right place.

59 min - Brokusatsu Episode 27 - KRW 47 & 48 - Incel Sephiroth
Turns out, Kazu Jun is a hideous inhuman monster! But enough about MRAs, there is one question that stands out above all else this week.
Does Hidari Shotaro have what it takes to get the job done?

34 min - Brokusatsu Episode 26 - Ult. Nexus 10, KRW 45&46 - A Somewhat Tense Family Dinner
In Kamen Rider W, we have hit the endgame. The Museum's plan is about to come to fruition, and everyone's invited.
Does even Mick the Cat have the capacity for mercy? Can Terui somehow turn his uselessness into an amazing moment? Did Indiana get the whip because she's an archaeologist, or become an archaeologist to justify the whip? Find out, today!

42 min - Brokusatsu Episode 25 - Garo YOTM 15-18 - I Really Appreciate It
We cover four episodes of Garo: The One Who Shines In The Darkness, and there is one overriding theme in all of them:
The beautiful dumb sword boy Dogai Ryuga, and the other main characters in this show, are bad at their jobs.

Speaking of incompetence, this episode took a full extra day to release! Sorry about that! It does mean it's coming out on President's day, another big incompetence tie-in. Ha ha! Jokes.
Edit: Did another editing pass, reuploaded.
46 min - Brokusatsu Special Episode - KRW Forever A to Z The Gaia Memories of Fate Commentary Track
As Kamen Rider W comes to a close, Futo city becomes a warzone as Katsumi Daido, AKA Kamen Rider Eternal, makes his appearance! But who is this man? And what are his intentions? The movie answers these questions and more, right after Sam finishes asking them and I stammer and talk about my fanfics! It's only 66 minutes, definitely give it a shot whether or not you want us accompanying it.

1 hr 11 min - Brokusatsu Episode 24 - Ult. Nexus 9, KRW 43&44 - This Is A Good ShowIn Ultraman Nexus: Komon gets told he should quit, messes up when it matters most, and crashes his fighter jet onto his girlfriend. Ha ha, okay that's enough of that funny but fake episode summary, let's pull up my notes and OH MY GOOOOOOODMeanwhile, Kamen Rider W is great! A tale of how mother's love can lead to terrible decisions is mirrored in both the episodic plot and the overall story arc! All the main characters display real depth and growth! Plotlines both obvious and subtle that have been seeded throughout the show are resolved in enjoyable fashion! EVERYBODY WATCH THIS DANG SHOW!Okay seriously, did that Ultraman Nexus episode actually happen? Did I go a bit too candid and dark in response to a pretty basic question from Sam? Let's just savor the last of W that we have left, okay?Send comments, corrections, or questions of literally any sort to [email protected]Intro: Memories, AudiobingerOutro: An Ordinary Day In The Life Of A Superhero, Linden Killam55 min
- Brokusatsu Episode 23 - Ult. Nexus 8, KRW 41&42 - Dangit Sam, His Name Is Jin (Note: His Name Is Not Jin)In Ultraman Nexus a shocking twist occurs: the characters in the show are just as convinced as we are that Komon, the protagonist, is a worthless clueless idiot! But it's a government job, so it's probably going to be pretty hard to get him fired. And in other news, START THE CLOCK ON DOOMED GIRLFRIEND.In Kamen Rider W, we experience an arc that's a bit of a time filler but nonetheless quite enjoyable, and love the background it reveals for the character Sam insists on referring to as backscratcher Cop. And I insist on referring to as Jin, but I just realized his name is technically Jinno? I feel like they must have referred to him as Jin at some point, or maybe the "no" syllable is really subtle, like some Japanese sounds. But here's the important part: Sam doesn't write these summaries, and he doesn't have access to the emails YOU NEVER WRITE TO ANYWAY, so there's no way for him to ever find out. Checkmate.We also have another trivia game, which I think turned out way better than the first. CANON... OR FANON?Did they really need to throw Makura under the bus so hard here? How long can I make these episode titles? John Walsh, huh?Send comments, corrections, or questions of literally any sort to [email protected] ! But don't bother trying to tell Sam that I've been getting a name wrong, because HE NEVER NEEDS TO KNOW.Intro: Memories, AudiobingerOutro: An Ordinary Day In The Life Of A Superhero, Linden Killam59 min
- Brokusatsu Episode 22 - KRW 39-40 & Ult. Nexus 7 - Komon The Horror Movie VictimIn Ultraman Nexus, Komon defies orders, trips a bunch, drops his gun, and freezes in the face of danger! If he wasn't the protagonist he'd be so fired by now. Also there's an evil Ultraman, cool.In Kamen Rider W, Akiko proves her best girl status by simultaneously redeeming a villain, calling out the antagonists on their BS, giving Shotaro the directing credit he's always dreamed of, and embarassing some cops! GIVE THIS GIRL A BELT!Also, we introduce a fun trivia element to the show! Buuuut the questions were maybe too vague this time, and one of us doesn't really engage properly with the questions, so it's a bit of a wash. I promise the one for next episode turned out a lot better!Does Nagi even need to shoot Komon at this point? Couldn't Gene get funding for his movie by, I don't know, curing all the cancers and diseases everywhere? Is Heat Vision and Jack tokusatsu?

- Brokusatsu Episode 21 - Garo YOTM 11-14 - Feeling Weird and Attacked All OverWe're heading back to Vol City, for a quartet of episodes that leave us feeling... really weird! In the first, some strange writing combines with an underdeveloped character arc, leading to some truly odd characterization that might be actually interesting in a genre that cares about its female leads.Next, we advance the plot with an ep that follows directly from some of the most important episodes in the show, with some good action that sets the stage for the show's latter half! Some offhand comments (that hopefully aren't us reading too much into things / another translation quirk) kinda spoil the pot!Third is a great character ep for Aguri, showing the progress he's made since the series began, and containing some very strong emotional scenes with the whole cast! Too bad the real-life actor turned out to be not so great a person.Finally, Hyena. Hyena. ...Why?Are there any Toku shows with explicit LGBT content we won't hate? Is "death of the actor" a thing too? WHY HYENA?Send comments, corrections, or questions of literally any sort to [email protected]Intro: Knight's Dance, Art Gray Noizz QuintetOutro: An Ordinary Day In The Life Of A Superhero, Linden Killam1 hr 4 min
