The third arc shakes up the format and so do we! Joel has a bad time,  Robert ties everything back to Lost, and Curtis shares his thoughts on My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness. We talk about our Mid 20 Crises

Welcome to Joels TED talk, the first in a series about how convoluted time is not the same is time travel. We deep dive into the nature of the school and what makes a duelist

It’s midseason doldrums, but we introduce Curtis to shipping which helps us stay a float. Also that was a lie to set up a joke, Saionji is back and the Mikage Seminar starts making Waves. Anthy is evil confirmed.

Joel has A LOT to say about school days so skip from 36:20 to 56:35 to avoid those

School Days

A tired Joel stumbles through a recording that went off without a hitch, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Robert learns how to run properly.

You thought this Anime was about love, but it was ME, DIOS. Whatever that is. These episodes were dense with SYMBOLISM, METAPHORS… and INCEST. What does it all mean? Is it really incest? There’s also 100 dead boys, a big furnace and shadow roses.

We’re confused too.

Mobile Suit Gundam II: Soldiers of Sorrow… Dr. Who… and… Star trek? We talk about long running series and the trouble of starting them when you’re a new viewer who hates missing out.

 - EditSorry about the initialy misplaced Gurren Lagann Music. Joel is an idiot

Eps 10, 11, 12 of Revolutionary Girl Utena

Enough is enough, what is Micky Timing with that damn stopwatch? We speculate on what the deal is. Joel's been inhaling Monster Hunter World, and Robert LOVES Attack on Titan.

This one’s a long one huh.

Episodes 7, 8 and 9 of Revolutionary Girl Utena

The Shōjo train won’t slow down! Two great story episodes, and one really bizarre one combine to be a good time. Rob tests our knowledge of the music of RGU, and Joel’s gone and ripped off Anime youtube's real or fake segment. We also answer some listener questions.

Robert is busy with exams and has no time for anime. But we can't leave you hanging so we got together a couple of weeks ago and recorded this awkward conversation.

Robert and Curtis want to know about the anime birds and bees, and Joel is honor-bound to teach them. Listen as three repressed, straight guys talk about anime sex, lolicon and tentacles. Obviously this episode is more NSFW than usual.Back to regularly scheduled programming next week.

Revolutionary Girl Utena. Episodes 4, 5, & 6:

The Anime Boys meet Miki, the blue-haired council member, and Nanami gets a boyfriend briefly. Is Miki into Anthy like a sister or like a lover? What's with his stopwatch? And why is there a kangaroo in this school? All good questions asked in this episode.

Revolutionary Girl Utena eps 1, 2, & 3

The Anime Boys have a HOOT of a time with Revolutionary Girl Utena, but will it last? They also reflect on the last 6 months as they descend into the abyss that is anime. What are they learning? Are they learning things? Lets find out.
