Oldtaku no Radio # 027 – In This Corner of the World

November 24, 2018 22:25

Adapting the original manga by Fumiyo Kouno, MAPPA's In This Corner of the World depicts the life and times of people in Kure and Hiroshima during World War II. The show's protagonist – an easily-distracted, artistically-inclined, young woman – marries into a family in a nearby city. The audience watches her grow from child to young woman to wife – all behind a transparent theater of war that doesn't so much raise or lower but focuses perspective on a humanity often overlooked. Don't blink; e...

Oldtaku no Radio # 026.5 – Flowers of Evil

November 04, 2018 17:00

Hiroshi Nagahama's anime adaptation of Shuzo Oshimi's Flowers of Evil manga is infamous among anime fans for its art and pacing choices, but does it deserve the vitriol?

Returning guest Dave Cabrera from Kawaiikochans joins Evan and David to discuss the two FLCL sequel series, Progressive and Alternative. We cover the differences between the two series, how they interpret the themes of the original, and whether or not it’s worth it to watch past season 1 of FLCL. And of course, it wouldn’t be a FLCL discussion without multiple pronunciations of the title, and we cover the whole spectrum, from F L C L to Furi Kuri to Fooly Cooly. Topics include: the puberty ...

Oldtaku no Radio # 026 – The Dragon Prince

October 19, 2018 13:06

There are some pretty high expectations for The Dragon Prince given that it is the brain-child of Aaron Ehasz (head writer for Avatar the Last Airbender) and Justin Richmond. Thankfully, this fantasy-set tale of unlikely allies from different halves of a war manages to capture the charm of ATLA while forging a mostly different world populated with very round and refreshingly diverse characters.

Oldtaku no Radio # 025 – Dead Leaves

September 22, 2018 13:18

Imaishi Gone Wild! After all the mentions on previously published podcasts, we're finally, on this first day of Autumn 2018, releasing our Dead Leaves podcast. Get it? (We knew you would.) This proto-TRIGGER production is a visual smorgasbord of sex and violence with a fairy tale structure and American comic book stylings.

September 20, 2018 17:00

There's no denying Rumiko Takahashi's Urusei Yatsura — a school-set, shounen rom-com that leverages a love for mythology and puns — is a staple of manga and anime history. Beautiful Dreamer, the second Urusei Yatsura movie, proves that a tiger indeed can change its stripes. But is it for better or worse?

You don't have to be a furry to get a warm fuzzy or burst into tears from Mamoru Hosoda's Wolf Children. This two-hour movie follows the life of a young woman named Hana as she moves from adolescent to mother to working widow.

Oldtaku no Radio # 022 – Robot Carnival

July 11, 2018 23:00

Anthology films — feature-length presentations comprised of multiple, stand-alone stories — afford their contributors great artistic freedom and, quite often, crucial visibility. Robot Carnival, which was initially released mid-1987, gathers some names you have probably heard of before, but for many, this was their debut. Including the bookend animation (a worthwhile story/anecdote in its right), there are eight installments centered around the loose theme of "robots," and Jared and Ink dig i...

April 11, 2018 16:00

Not a lot is known about O-ei, Katsushika Hokusai's third daughter, and that's what makes Miss Hokusai less an interesting biopic than dramatic historical fiction. This movie, which adapts Hinako Sugiura's original manga, paints a portrait of an artist in vignettes and brings to light a historical figure who lived in the shadows for a good deal of her life.
