This week Joey and Aki are joined by a special guest; fellow YouTuber, Gigguk. The trio talk about anime nostalgia. Here's some thought starters: what was the first anime you ever watched and what was the anime that blew you world wide open? Joey, Aki and Gigguk answer these plus how they started doing their online channels, how anime and geek culture has become so accepted, if they could wipe a memory of watching an anime so they could experience seeing it for the first time again, what would they watch, and the anime that brought the kid out in them. What would yours be?
