The Broadly Specific Podcast

In this episode, we discuss our favourite anime and manga and discuss our experiences and thoughts about them! We talk about our childhood anime and why we think they're pretty cool! We also discuss why some of us haven't watched an Anime series in a long time and offer our thoughts on what we think are some of the problems plaguing modern Anime.

Before you asked, yes we know the official English title is 'The Boy and the Heron'.

This is a VERY special episode of B.S. Film Club because we just watched Studio Ghibli/Hayao Miyazaki's first film in 10 years and presumably his last film as well, 'How Do You Live?'. This film is also unique because it does not have ANY trailer, still or promotional material. The only thing that has been released to the public is the main poster of the film. There is a lot of curiosity and enthusiasm for the film, and it was just released today in Japan. If you are a Ghibli fan or if you are curious, listen to our impressions in this podcast! We divided the podcast into three parts:

Part 1: Our impressions WITHOUT talking about any premise, synopsis or plot of the film. If you are just curious about what we think but want to stay blind like how the marketing intended, then this is for you.
Part 2: We start discussing the basic premise and synopsis but we won't tell you any big spoilers or reveal of the film. This is how it usually goes for non-spoiler content. If you are more curious about the film then this is the part for you. 

Part 3: Full spoilers discussion. Watch this part after you watch the film one day.

A bonus podcast episode! We are merely a day away from the release of Final Fantasy XVI, our most anticipated video game release! In this episode, we discussed our impressions of the FFXVI prologue demo (which you can download now on PS5), our expectations for the full game and why you should ALSO play Final Fantasy XIV (the critically-acclaimed MMORPG) before, during or after you play FFXVI! Are you a FFXVI fan or are you still curious about why it's gonna be worth it? then listen in!
