Anime World Order Show # 2 - Two Episodes In and We're Already Off-Schedule

Daryl talks about the Often Overlooked theatrical anime classic Hols (Horus?), Prince of the Sun. Gerald reviews the City Hunter sequel Angel Heart, and Clarissa picks up from part of the discussion in the last episode to talk about fansubs, scanlations, and their relevance in anime fandom today.

Faced with insurmountable obstacles such as Gerald being out of the country, Daryl declaring himself Mayor and assaulting his constituents with pies on the coldest night of the year (click here for pictures), and Clarissa being a girl, our second episode experienced many untimely delays in getting everyone together to record. But we're back and better than ev...er, marginally improved!

Introduction (0:00 - 11:10)

We read excerpts from some of the listener feedback and respond. Be sure to send us email at animeworldorder@gmail.com with your name, where you're from, and what you think of the show and we'll take your advice under consideration! This week we've all decided to get headsets, record the show at 44100 Hz, and ensure that the left and right audio channels are the same volume for the whole show! Please let us know if you encounter any issues with the sound quality. Next time around, we'll try recording everyone's voices on separate tracks the way we should have been doing from the get-go.

Let's News! (11:10 - 20:58)

We follow-up on last week's new items by mentioning Bandai Visual USA's homepage is now up, then after proclaiming the superiority of the Emotion logo with the vector Easter Island heads note that this webpage which Gerald misreads the URL for during the broadcast and nobody catches him on it contains side by side comparisons of the audio from the Japanese Macross, Robotech, and ADV's English dub. We'll go easy and not zero in on the "pudknocker" line. As for this week's [outdated] news, the author of Slam Dunk has been accused of plagiarism, and we ponder anime's future with this whole Blu-Ray vs HD-DVD thing since this was recorded around CES time. Anime Hell Promo (20:58 - 2:31)

AnimeHell.org sent us the first in what will be a series of promos, but since everyone was off at Ohayocon doing Anime Hell there, the promo was actually just a trailer to Zardoz. Uh oh, better not tell Steve Harrison's mom! You can get plenty of other silly movie trailers and much, much more by visiting the site! Anime Hell: it's coming to a convention near you! If you've got promos, email us with them and we'll intersperse a few of them throughout the show to break things up a bit.

Often Overlooked (22:31 - 35:45)

Daryl tells us all about Hols, Prince of the Sun, only he forgets to look at the notes he took while watching the film that would help assure him that what he was saying would have some basis in fact. For example, contrary to what is stated, Studio Ghibli does in fact consist of MORE than just two people! Rotating Segment - Fandom Stuff (35:45 - 48:42)


Clarissa leads off in a discussion about fansubs, scanlations (man, I hate that word), and their relevance/necessity in anime fandom. Eventually everyone chimes in and the conversation progresses like...well, the same way it always does.
Review (48:42 - 1:02:21)

Gerald handles the review this week, which is for the first six episodes of Angel Heart, the new sequel to City Hunter. Note that this contains spoilers for those episodes and probably also City Hunter. Gerald wishes it to be known in this space that Tsukasa Hojo is the author of City Hunter, a fact he forgot to mention in the review. Actually, he kept saying the author was Tetsuo Hara. Clearly Daryl's influence is spreading like a virus. Closing (1:02:21 - 1:04:20)

We wrap things up by doing the obligatory begging people to rate and review us on sites like iTunes, Podcast Pickle, and so on and so forth before moving on to the next episode preview. Next time (which will be much sooner than the last delay between episodes), we're spitting in the face of common sense and dedicating the entire show to mecha, which just might be the least popular genre of anime in this day and age. Look forward to Daryl's review of Gundam SEED Destiny: Final Plus, Gerald's creator spotlight on Shoji Kawamori, and Clarissa's choice for Often Overlooked is King of Braves: GaoGaiGar! See? The Often Overlooked segment doesn't HAVE to be about old stuff after all!
