Welcome to the Anime Nostalgia Podcast, a mix of anime & manga history, reviews, and talks with other fans on titles and aspects of fandom from everywhere from the 70s to the 90s!

The Anime Nostalgia Podcast - ep 20
iTunes subscribers! Be sure to go to the blog to read the description easier & check out links for this episode!
A special Halloween treat for you, listeners, while you wait for part 2 of the Satoshi Kon retrospective: A short, ReView episode! What is a “ReView” episode, you might ask? Well, it’s my highly-clever (ok not really) title for episodes where I go back and watch an older title I haven’t seen in a long time, and see if what I remember (and what my opinions on it) are still the same now that time’s gone by and I’m a little older. Listen as I fight through some fall sniffles to tell you all about a title appropriate for the upcoming spooky holiday with the 1988 OVA series Vampire Princess Miyu.
