- Kotatsu Corner #9 - In which we let Sully talk about Rocky Horror for an hour and a half
Sully went to see THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW on Broadway. Predictably, he had several thoughts. Enjoy!

1 hr 2 min - #172 - Frankenstein: Legend of Terror feat. Dennis Bartok and Craig Rogers of Deaf Crocodile
From the mad scientists at Deaf Crocodile, the legend rises again!
Sully and Austin welcome Dennis Bartok and Craig Rogers to the show to talk about their upcoming release of Toei Animation's 1981 TV Special, Frankenstein: Legend of Terror! Not seen since a very old VHS release from Harmony Gold decades ago, Deaf Crocodile has reanimated the corpse of this long dormant anime adaptation of the Mary Shelly classic that has shockingly little to do with the Marvel Comic it was intended to be based on? Listen to our chat about that and more, including Belladonna of Sadness (Dennis and Craig worked on that release for Cinelicious Pictures) and Deaf Crocodile's other anime (for now) Tamala 2010: A Punk Cat in Space.
Thanks so much to Dennis and Craig for coming on the show! Snag your pre-order now for Frankenstein: Legend of Terror today!

1 hr 24 min - #171 - Tim Eldred and Icons of Anime
Hello, universe! Returning guest Tim Eldred joins us to talk about his upcoming project with CREATORVC, Icons of Anime, a documentary helmed by Tim all about the history of anime and its impact in the west. Tim has been doing a media blitz to get the word out about the documentary's survey which will help shape the vision of the project. The doc will cover all the basics, but the survey is how you can voice what specific angles you'd like Tim to explore. You can find the link here on the official Icons of Anime website.

1 hr 53 min - #168 - Bill's Trivia Gauntlet: THE RETURN feat. Kory (Taiiku Podcast)
Last time we did a trivia show, it was to celebrate 150 episodes of Third Impact Anime. This time, we're doing it just for fun, and because Bill finally built up a new stockpile of mind-melting anime trivia questions to stump his fellow co-hosts-- and stump he did.
Bill, Austin, and Tori are joined by returning friend of the show and new trivia victim, our pal Kory from the Taiiku Podcast Network. You can hear Kory on numerous podcasts including Taiiku Podcast (sports anime), Taiiku Movies (movies and not anime), and Manga in Your Ears (for manga, in your ears). Thanks so much to Kory for coming back on the show!

1 hr 58 min - #167 - Con-versations: Ibashocon 2026
Tori and Austin chat about Ibashocon 2026, a convention that wrapped up several months ago, but with us (err, Austin) being so busy preparing panels for Animazement, and recording a bunch of episodes that are STILL not out yet, this one took a while to release. We chat about the con, the great artists' alley, really fun panels (both our own and others'), the delightful idolfest, the cosplay fashion show, the Gachiakuta cast panel, and the beauty of a convention built on a "community first" attitude.

34 min - BONUS - Interview with the developers of Quartet (indie RPG) except this time, it's out!

A sincere thank you to Peter, Patrick, and Tyler for coming on the show once again. All music comes from the Quartet soundtrack.
You can purchase Quartet on Steam right now, and be on the look out for the forth-coming PlayStation and Switch ports.
