What A Cartoon! - Kill La Kill "Episode 1"
Added 2018-04-02 06:00:00 +0000 UTCHere at WAC we've now arrived at our first ever anime series, thanks in part to a request from one of our top Patreon supporters. We go over the inaugural episode of Kill La Kill, the action-packed (and fan-servicey) debut series of Studio Trigger. Is it amazing to look at? Is it a bit weird and/or discomforting? Find out as Bob and Henry are joined by Cartoon 101's Matthew Jay!

Late to this but as a filthy dub watcher who's seen a few clips it's pretty great. If you're a Critical Role fan Matt Mercer is that one "Nudist Beach" teacher

2018-05-21 00:05:52 +0000 UTCActually I changed my mind and listened to the whole thing (I have a stomach flu so ignore my previous post). I think I imagined multiple clips lol.... 0_o Henry's points, as a bisexual man myself, are 50/50. I like pervy stuff in anime of women and hot ass sexy dudes you wanna roll around with, but I hate feeling pandered to. I feel when it comes to nudity and sex, my all-time favorite manga series 'Berserk' does it totally right. It doesn't rely on male gaze and when something salacious happens, it's from a total horrific perspective that fucks with the main cast and it's NEVER treated as nastiness to turn dudes and when it's written like a legit love-making sex scene between partners who really love each, it's done with better delicacy than I've seen in even most TV shows. All of that is to point out that... I kinda don't think I'd like this show based on this podcast. I'm already not the biggest fan of anime (I honestly only keep up to date on Berserk when they come to America, and Attack on Titan on Funimation Now). But part of what made me fall out of anime fast was that nothing sexual had purpose to it. Like, I like my straight hentai (and depending on the mood, yaoi and male-on-futanari), but when it comes to regular stuff I can't stand feeling pandered to. Henry's feelings are mine and I constantly feel watching some shows "STOP PANDERING TO ME!!!"

2018-04-17 18:25:32 +0000 UTCYeah, I'm gonna be blunt, because this is a podcast in English but can you guys use dubs for audio next time? Because I don't speak Japanese, I shut this off after the second clip. I might not be an anime fan, but I was excited to hear you guys discuss the show and have clips cause people love the comedy in it but if it's gonna be subs from here on out, then... at least I have Talking Simpsons and Futurama lol

2018-04-17 01:32:00 +0000 UTCI'm a bit behind on my podcasts due to the Easter holidays, so just got around to listening to this. Great episode. One thing I did notice was the lack of clips in this show. I assume this because you watched the sub rather than the dub. I was wondering for future single episodes anime show, would you consider watching the sub and dub of the episode, so that you can include clips and give feedback on the dub quality. To prepare for this show I watched the dub of this episode and thought it quite good. Watching the sub and the dub of anime episodes could also create a few funny clips if the dub quality is bad.
