South Figaro Podcast

Fencingsax and Stilts join me for a brief bit of speculation of the newly announced Dissidia game (and a briefer retrospective of the first two) while also discussing which new characters should be included in the upcoming Final Fantasy free-for-all. Where's the love for Amarant?

We tackle one of the most popular (and heavily criticized) series in recent years by covering the animated entirety of Sword Art Online. Do cultural differences make up for poor writing (no)? Are there any legitimate high points to be found in this series (yes)? Is the onii-chan thing ever not creepy (lord no)? And how many details of the novelization can Somestickguy take (not a whole lot)?

It's another anything-goes extravaganza. ThatDudeOverThere continues to be smitten by Smite, LockedOnTarget promotes a new YouTube channel (several times), Fencingsax runs a little late and Blue Map relays some kind words about his favorite developer Peter Molyneux. It's a Persona-gushing, Spider-maning, Bat-tastic all-rounder filled with vulgarities, comic talks and poor product placement in this week's episode! Also more discussions of Metroid: Other M because we really like that game.

LockedOnTarget rejoins the crew from the previous episode (Fencingsax, Adus and Renzo) to discuss the sequels, spin-offs and prequels of Final Fantasy VII. Listen in as we discuss heated topics like fanservice versus narrative consistency, Square's shortsightedness with overseas marketing, the kind of crazy information gathered by Sephiroth fangirls, and a brief look into the possible future of Final Fantasy VII. Will they just kiss already!?

Somestickguy brings a friend along as we discuss the currently running Anime adaption of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. How many memes can we reference in one episode, and how long can you withstand busting out a fabulous pose?

You read that right: Adus, Renzo and Fencingsax join me in waxing nostalgic about a game that came out over 17 years ago and is still discussed like it came out yesterday. It's an honest-to-goodness celebration of the single most definitive RPG of all time as we cover our favorite characters, our unending debates about the story, ambiguity versus confirmation, and just what insane lengths a teenage gamer in the 90's had to go through to play this monumental release.

Anime bingewatcher Somestickguy comes back to talk about his up-to-date thoughts on the bizzarly titled but brilliantly presented "Your Lie in April". Also, I caution Stick on the danger of watching Evangelion half-asleep and hear his early episode impressions while he returns the favor with a couple recommendations of his own.

It's a six-person open discussion this week as I check in on ThatDudeOverThere's progress on Final Fantasy VII, I praise Freedom Planet while sighing over the legal hilarity surrounding the Sonic comic series, Fencingsax talks about world-shattering comic book event no. 349, Blue Map keeps track of Payday's canonical link to other series, and LockedOnTarget whores out a new project. And if you haven't had enough of him this week, Somestickguy is also around in addition to discussions about Evolve, Final Fantasy XIV, Parasite Eve and YouTube personalities. Also football and historical warfare! There's something for everybody this week!

somestickguy is eager to talk about his latest Anime binge, as we ponder about the current state of Parasyte the Maxim while also trying (and failing) to avoid spoilers from the Manga. We also delve with topics such as favorite Anime OPs, how dark can a series get before it becomes too dark, and the tough question of naming my Top 3 greatest Anime of all time.

Recorded last December, somestickguy decides to bring up Anime, and the two of us begin the first of what may potentially be a routine check-in on the latest Anime shows.
