Episode 63 - My Power Went Out...Twice Actually

Welcome to back to the Ass Backwards Anime Podcast. I missed you guys and gals. Did you miss us? I hope you did. Sorry for the wait. We are backed up on episodes and need to release these for something more important. If you are aware of the news, I am sure you can take a guess as to what we will be talking about in the future. I love being vague. Until then, here is the first of three episode will be release this week. Yes, three episodes this week. I am not going to get interrupted by random hotel parties or Scott Pilgrim for the rest of the week. I thought I would begin today with something we recorded before going to Mizucon a few weeks ago. We talk about an anime about someone awesome, another anime about a lucky bastard, then a drama about an awesome bastard and a lucky idiot and we end it with a British series about a famous, awesome bastard.

(0:00 - 14:28) Intro

I want to apologies ahead of time to tell you that my mic was way too loud for some reason. Apologies to whoever we were referring to in the beginning as well.

(14:29 - 34:22) Discussion (Akagi)

This series is obviously the hardest one to get into. This is one of those shows where notes are very important. Trust me, we didn’t scratch the surface as to how crazy this kid really is.

(34:23 - 1:02:13) Discussion (Kaiji)

We didn’t get a chance to cover the live action movie. If you can find it, it will cover all the rounds that were in the series. Obviously, it will have a different outcome to the series. If you want a glimpse of it, here is the trailer.



(1:02:14 - 1:03:16) Earcatch

Animeshon You are ripping the guy off, but at least you do a better job at making me think it's in one take.

(1:03:17 - 1:37:19) Discussion (Liar Game)

It is really hard to find decent videos for this show. I think this one will show you a bit of everything we were talking about. Plus, gives a better explanation as to what game we were trying to remember.



Here is a bit of how Nao’s mind works.



(1:37:20 - 1:37:50) Earcatch

The Unofficial One Piece Podcast I hope you enjoy your manga-free month.

(1:37:51 - 2:11:44) Discussion (Sherlock)

For the sake of spoilers, I won’t say much about this show. By the way, I finished this series not long after we recorded this episode. I wish I had done that before they decided to record about it.

If you are wondering the why the overall sound quality changed after this section, most of the audio I had was unusable due to my power going in and out. Luckily, Foxy took the initiative to record on her end. My side was fine, but for everyone else all you would have heard was fifteen minute bursts of silence. Again, more audio you will never hear. It mainly had to do with our podcast origin story if you are wondering. If you want to know the story, write in or leave a voicemail. Give us enough to convince Foxy that we should do an episode on it.



(2:11:45 - 2:34:09) Discussion (Top of the Aughts)

Here is the survey we are asking people to fill out. Remember: this is for shows that premiered from January 1, 2000 through December 31, 2009. There is a handy link in that post that can give you a nudge in the right direction.

(2:34:10 - 2:38:13) Closing

The next episode will be four days before next week.

Episode 62 - Ken Lost...Twice Actually

Sorry for the wait. Busy watching movies and getting degrees. Now that have finished our piracy episode, you can now listen to something completely irrelevant. Here is our con report for Anime Festival Orlando 11. I again manage to not take any pictures. I even bought a new camera. I stink.

(0:00 - 4:09) Intro

You should still check out Pale Cocoon if you haven’t seen it. It’s only a one-shot OVA so you don’t have to worry about time being eaten up.

(4:10 - 46:40) Discussion (Day 1)

Though we say it on the air, we want to thank Bullet Beast for hanging out with us during the con. It just proves that we are very approachable. Just don’t point a gun to our faces and ask what’s our faction.

It took me a little while to get the Anime Addicts Anonymous promo, but I got it. Also, kudos for having great panels. I sent that email by the way. I don’t know if you received it and I couldn’t hold the episode back any more. You can find the information for all the panels they did on their site...somewhere.

(46:41 - 1:40:59) Discussion (Day 2)

I will take this opportunity again to thank the people over at Gundamn for being extremely cool people. Next time Soul Bro...next time...

(1:41:00 - 1:53:06) Discussion (Day 3)

We will have our revenge.

(1:53:07 - 1:57:05) Closing

Now I need the Metal and Trigger Gaia Memories.

Episode 61.3 - I Watched AIC Shows...Twice Actually

Anime Festival Orlando is this week and we are going to be heading there. Expect things. In the meantime, here is another episode to make up for the lack of episodes last month. Recorded not long after our piracy episode, we recorded an episode of the current anime season with Funkatron and Josh Dunham from the Josh and Friends Podcast. This was recorded some time before Otakon and I somehow predicted one of this season’s shows getting licensed. Find out which one at the end of the episode...or the beginning.

(0:00 - 8:26) Intro

Here is some info on that 30 minute Super Metroid speed run.

(8:27 - 1:17:58) Discussion (2010 Summer Anime)

Here is the list we used. If you managed to survive the last episode, this one should be a cake walk.

(1:17:59- 1:23:31) Closing

This is technically our 75th episode. By the way, Inception is now cattle-prodded. I can’t believe I brought back that gimmick.

Episode 61 - I Bought My Anime...Twice Actually

After all the trouble, we finally bring you this three hour long episode about piracy. For reals this time. Trust me, this took some effort to fix with all the dropped calls and the sound quality. We ended up having a lot of people join in on this episode. Aside from our usual hosts, we have Firecrouch and Funkatron from the Unofficial One Piece Podcast, Mikey D. Pirate from the One Piece at a Time Blog, and to even out the One Piece lovefest (which didn’t work out during the recording), we have Gothic Garra from the Konoha Corner Podcast, a Naruto podcast. Since this took longer than I wanted to, I will be releasing another episode tomorrow to make up for the long delays between recent episodes.

(0:00 - 5:41) Intro

More people will show up as the episode proceeds. By the way Mikey, the fact we are doing a Best of the Last Decade episode shows how much we don’t care about doing things in a timely manner. Also, look at our name.

(5:42 - 15:34) Discussion (What We Think Piracy Is)

Nothing else I can say.

(15:35 - 32:19) Discussion (Lurk Harder)



(32:20 - 35:10) Earcatch

OA Podcast We will be at AFO by the way.

Animeshon “Josh and Everyone on Anime 3000 and ADD“ sounds a bit more accurate.

Jammer’s AniMovie Podcast Yes, the song blew my mind too.

(35:11 - 42:00) Discussion (The Entire Podcast Breaks)

I got a new modem. We should not have the same problems in the future.

(42:01 - 46:59) Discussion (Fire Breathing Lawyers)

I have not seen Saturday Night Live in 5 years.

(47:00 - 1:04:36) Discussion (Quality vs. Quantity)

We could go all day about this, if we cared.

(1:04:37 - 1:13:46) Discussion (Steam)

You got a better idea?

(1:13:47 - 1:49:27) Discussion (Excuses)

Don’t smoke kids.

(1:49:28 - 2:03:50) Discussion (Stay On Target)

It’s no good, I can't maneuver.

(2:03:51 - 2:12:18) Discussion (Wednesday)

Be honest, what was the first show you downloaded? If you remember that far.

(2:12:19 - 2:59:38) Discussion (GET UP ON THE HYDRA’S BACK!)

As you can tell, I gave up at trying to keep these timestamps organized. We went every which way in this part. Do you expect live action dramas to work here? What is up with Bandai? Who is Salt?

The offending video.



(2:59:39 - 3:02:00) Closing

Expect another episode on Thursday.
