A little bit of an update on Notaku. Happy Holidays and we will be back in 2021!
Another anime newscast from your pals Setsuken and Guardian Enzo. Our main focus this week (not counting Enzo's double entendres) is Netflix (a recurrent theme for us). There's also some Ghibli talk, a first look at the PS5 and how it can impact your anime experience, and our usual customer feedback and questions.

Yeah, it's our longest podcast ever - but this is a special occasion. This marks the end of our first cour, a real accomplishment. Not only that, this is the show where we discuss the results of our listener survey - a big step in determining our plans for the future. Plus all the regulars belly up to the bar - what we're both watching (Major 2nd), news, and questions. Plus our topic of the week this time is one near and dear to the hearts of anime fans everywhere - fanservice.

It's that time of year, when all the ghouls dance merrily through the land spreading terror. Election season? No, silly - Halloween! And while you won't be trick-or-treating or partying this year (we hope) you can at least settle down with Notaku as Enzo and Setsuken share their Halloween anime favorites. Plus, our favorite scary movies and spookiest personal experiences. As usual, we have industry news, listener questions, haiku, and a manga recommendation with a Halloween theme.
This week is a special one for the podcast, because we've launched our first listener survey. It can be found at https://notaku.typeform.com/to/BVbax3uQ and shouldn't take more than 3-5 minutes to complete. We'd be grateful if you share your feedback as we consider the next phase for Notaku.

Anime on TV may be in a rough patch creatively, but what about in the cinema? The pandemic has wreaked havoc on the theatrical film industry, but anime movies are thriving artistically in a way their TV cousins simply are not. Setsuken and Enzo take a closer look - as well as offer up the usual anime news, listener questions, and a check-in with what's new this season.

Enzo's manga recommendation features the best romcom in manga, and another "Haiku Challenge" (Evangelion mention #3). Finally, it's listener questions.
