A brand-new Sakura Wars game will be released soon--even in the English-speaking world!--so what better time to talk about a franchise that has been huge in Japan for over 20 years, but never quite hit it big in Western fandom? And to discuss this beloved anime & game series is resident Sakura Wars Historian & brand-new guest, Samantha! Join us as we discuss the Sakura Wars anime, what we love about the series, the amazing line-up of big names that have worked on this series, and why now’s the perfect time to give it a try!

It’s been a while since I did a music-themed episode! And what better guest to have than the host of a music-themed podcast, Nitro of MDisk Playlist, to talk all about the music of Joe Hisaishi! You probably have heard Hisaishi’s work in Miyazaki’s films, but what else has this immensely talented musician done? Nitro & I talk all about it, plus go through some of our favorite tracks by him (hint: it’s nothing from the soundtracks to Techopolice or Parasite Eve.)
