Fandom Post Radio Episode 99: Dead End Life

The regular crew is back and we are sooooo behind! Summer slacking has us scrambling to cover all the news we’ve made note of over the last two months. The real end of EVA, the Real Folk Blues, anime with too many dubs, acquisitions, and so much more! Plus some extremely brief thoughts on a summer season that is grabbing no one's attention and recommendations for anime, video games, and pets?!

Fandom Post Radio Episode 98: Musical Studio Chairs

Meanwhile, Kestrel got the opportunity to talk with several guests, each with a main role in the English dub of the biggest anime of the past year, Jujutsu Kaisen. Our late-night ramblings in the intro have some saucy content, so if that’s not what you’re looking for, feel free to skip to the section you’re interested in. 00:00 - Intro with Kestrel, Cain, and DJ in the same room.

The usual crew gets together this week to wrap up the Spring 2021 anime season. Cain, DJ, Kestrel, and Kate Tackle the news before we get to the heart of the matter, and this certainly was a season with plenty of heart! My Dear Cramer, Fruits Basket, Meglobox, Zombie Land Saga, Tokyo Revengers, Moriarty, and more! Plus some recommendations and banter. Yay, banter!

Fandom Post Radio Episode 96: ZOMBIELAND BASKET: REVENGERS

No news is good news. Cain, DJ, and Kestrel have a month of news to cover and while some of it is welcome, much of it isn’t. Demon Slayer continues to slay, while more Madoka, Made in Abyss, and Lupin the 3rd are on the horizon. Vinland Saga and a slew of others finally get a home release and a bunch of Dragon Quest stuff is coming as well! Yet the untimely and unexpected death of Berserk creator Kentarou Miura has shaken the industry and the fans. We discuss the legacy of his work and the pressure that creators are under to work themselves to death. Plus recommendations and more.

Fandom Post Radio Episode 95: Loss and Legacy

A year of being trapped away from other people has not had a detrimental effect on us, nope! And we have anime to thank for that! It’s spring, and a new crop of anime is budding. It looks to be a hell of an anime season and the gang is all here with our thoughts! To Your Eternity, Moriarty Season 2, Vivy, Nomad, Super Cub, Zombie Land SAGA Revenge, more Fruits Basket, and series with names so long I don’t want to type them out! Plus a bunch of news and a few recommendations to round out the lists! 

Episode #94: “SPRING SPRONG”

Cain, DJ, Kate, and Kestrel are joined by fellow Fandom Post reviewer Brandon to discuss our final thoughts on the Winter 2020-2021 anime season! AND WHAT A SEASON, WHAT A SEASON! Attack on Titan, Wonder Egg Priority, Jujutsu Kaisen, Laid-Back Camp, Slime, Dr. Stone, SK8, Higurashi Gou, Re:Zero... no seriously! Plus, which shows fell on their faces and a month’s worth of anime news! Strap in folks, it’s a long one!

Fandom Post Radio Episode 93: Winter 2021 Anime Wrap

Kestrel and Darius sit down to talk with the US anime industry icon Justin Sevakis about his career, the early days of the internet anime community, and the joys and hassles of authoring blu-rays. Plus Kestrel and Darius have some recommendations for stuff, both from Discotek and elsewhere!

Fandom Post Radio Episode 92: FPR Presents an Interview with Justin Sevakis

The Winter 2021 anime season is in full swing. Not only have many of these delayed seasons finally arrived, they have ARRIVED and DELIVERED! It's an embarrassment of riches, and the usual crew is here to talk about what we've been watching and the early standouts of a packed season. Plus a small amount of news and a few recommendations to lighten your wallet! Stay safe!

Fandom Post Radio Episode 91: Back in Full Force

It’s a wrap on a year that was unforgettable for all the wrong reasons. Yet here in our podcast bunkers we survive! Kestrel, DJ, Cain, and Skyler are here to talk about the best anime of those year that they watched. Did your favorite make their lists? Listen to find out! Plus news and recommendations. Happy 2021 everyone. Stay safe!

Fandom Post Radio Episode 90: 2020 is Done

Party like it’s not 2020 anymore! Okay, well, we recorded this before the new year, but the sentiment still applies. The regular crew arrives sleepy and well-fed to go over the Fall season as the shows finish out a very strange year. Which shows stuck the landing and which tripped over themselves at the finish line? Is it likely different reviewers had very different opinions on a few shows? Absolutely! Plus we cover the small amount of news and a few last minute recommendations for post-holiday gifts to yourself!

Fandom Post Radio Episode 89: Fall 2020 Anime Wrap Party

BREAKING NEWS on the western anime streaming front! The Crunchyroll deal is done and not only were they sold to Sony, but Funimation in particular? What does this mean for anime streaming going forward? We discuss it! Then DJ, Kestrel, Kate, and Cain are here with wish lists for anime Santa. Well, maybe not exactly wish lists but certainly recommendations for the best releases of the year and other great deals for you to snatch up. Doesn’t matter if you’re treating yourself or a loved one, we got a little something for everyone in our recommendations. (And one anti-recommendation for a first foray into eating red meat.) Plus other news and non-anime recs. 

Fandom Post Radio Episode 88: Tis the Season

We are on the eve of the annual anime sales season, but we have some news to get through before the sales actually kick-off! DJ, Kestrel, and Kate get together to try to keep things brief and fail amazingly. After some heartening old news and disheartening late-breaking news, we jump into a discussion on the current anime season and how while our charts and opinions of many shows are the same... some shows keep us guessing as to what exactly they’re on about! Pus some brief recommendations before the BIG OL’ REC EPISODE next time. And remember, please consider subscribing to the Fandom Post patron so we can keep bringing you inane ramblings and the wisdom of the ages. Thank you!

Episode 87: “Thanksgivings Canceled”

Cain, DJ, Kestrel and eventually Kate gather for a talk about the latest anime news followed by more talk about how the fall 2020 anime season is progressing. Which of the shows is climbing the lists and which have fallen ever so sharply off. IWGP isn’t at all what we expected, and neither is the newest adaptation (?) of Higurashi, or Wandering Witch for that matter. Plus recommendations and a heartfelt plea to our regular listeners. Please consider subscribing to the Fandom Post patron so we can keep bringing you inane ramblings and the wisdom of the ages. Thank you!

Fandom Post Radio Episode 86: When The Fans Cry

Summer is over and Fall is here! The regular gang gathers to discuss gang names, idols, witches, food in the form of baskets and otherwise, all in the context of anime! First Kestrel and DJ have some thoughts about the finished summer season before we contemplate how Funimation got all the good shows this fall, for once. Whether that holds true for the entire season remains to be seen. Plus some truly unusual news and recommendations!
