This is going to be our closing bit for our latest Takahashi vs Tomino Round 6 episode where we discuss Wings of Rean, and then a much better anime where Jonn talks about Super Dimension Century Orguss.
(0:00 – 42:45) “Take these broken anime Wings” of Rean Review: Dustin and Jonn finalize their review of this anime stinker classic by Yoshiyuki Tomino. We would like to take credit that we maybe the second anime podcast out there that has covered this show below Anime World Order review in 2017, but who can say (other than a simple Google search but we ain’t doing that). This will conclude another directors battle episode since 2019, and the long (non) awaited sequel to Garzy’s Wing in our episode from 2016. We did our best talking about this anime, but alas we had to talk about other things going on that were far more interesting. Other topics include space lasers conspiracies, Tomino comment on the Jews, women in the military, RIP Lieutenant Guns, people who fund global wars and more.
(42:45 – 1:56:10) “Where is this anime going, where did this anime come from?” Super Dimensional Century Orguss Review: Listeners might take this review from Jonn as an enraged ramble about this show, but deep down we both secretly love it. Will this convince Dustin to check out the show and get it off his Bluray shelf? We shall see in a future time and place. This show is a fun ride and even funner review, and we hope we can convince you to watch it. Blended in this is our brief reviews on God Mazinger, Dual Parallel Trouble Adventure and Giant Gorg. Our blended Closing remarks include: Dustin getting his niece into Gundam, the recently recycled “What Gundam to Watch” article on ANN (and Dustin first ever forum post), RIP Akira Toriyama and Toonami.

AoY Podcast #118 – MegaConPod GO! (Animazement / AWA 2017)
Also known as: “Mom, this Pie is Totally AIRWOLF!”
Download Episode HERE! (Total Time – 4:49:07)
After about 5 months of not putting out any con coverages, Dustin thought we can just double up and OD our listeners with two major cons in one episode with Animazement and Anime Weekend Atlanta.
(0:00 – 2:16:45) Animazement 2017 Review – Do people other than this podcast talk about cons 5 months after they happen? Well who knows, but it’s coming out now finally! Of course, this doesn’t go into Animazement immediately, not when Jonn had something to say about not going to see the failed assassination of Jason David Frank at Phoenix Comic Con. Jonn also talks about the dumb weapons policies to “protect” attendees that are not JDF and Robotech. It’s still about roughly 30 or so minutes in that Dustin talks about his con experience at Animazement. Included in this review is stories of the inside world of Limited Run Games, seeing your old teenhood house for the first time in years, how Strafe is inferior to Dead or Alive Xtreme 3, nerds who fail at hitting on girls, Justin Roland stories, people who bring their cats to cons, Antifa v. Street Preachers, not seeing this years Anime Hell, the History of Animazement, meeting forum members IRL, closing remarks of Timbox/Chris Chan and much more.
(2:16:45 – 4:49:07) AWA 2017 Review – Here’s a con that happened within a month that we can get a decent review out in time. This was Dustin first time going to AWA, and based on his 2 day experience, it’s a con worth going back too. This of course comes with meeting anime fan legends like Dave Merrill, Daryl Surat, Walter Amos, Neil Nadelman, and meeting new fans while there as well. This is also another instance where rooming with another forum member makes the con a better experience, and even doing a podcast drunk with them is also fun. Included is how Hell is done at AWA, old school anime dubs, buying up anime vinyl records and playing them on this recording, and more. Closing Remarks are about how the podcast is trying to monitize, the Las Vegas shooting/gun control laws discussion (there’s a part I meant to say was an amendment but said constitution by mistake. So if you caught that, my bad), Chris Chan relationship ends (before it ever got started), Jonn squeaky chair chimes in, Final Fantasy games, Dustin owning an SNES Classic and much more!

OP – Here’s to a great 20 years of Animazement…

Well it’s that time of the year again, where you’re flat broke from shopping from other people, and you have all that wrapping paper to pick up off the ground from your kids. We hope that this episode is the best gift you’ve gotten this year, because we decide to review the latest Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin – Artesia’s Sorrow OVA…
(0:00 – 51:42) Christmas Special Review – Gundam the Origin 2 OVA – We understand this anime came out back in October, and its only taken us now to finally sit down and review it. Our reason would be, its all Jonn Dustin fault, so there is someone to blame. We actually really liked this OVA, and are happy to see how well it will adapt the manga story, a manga story that Dustin is still reading, after having volume 5 for over a year. Will he ever finish it? Well, his lazy butt is on break, so there isn’t an excuse there. As much as our host try to stay on topic, dumb things keep coming up like talking about that crappy Yogi Bear movie, how FOX can’t make a good cartoon list, how we didn’t care about the internet opinions on Gundam the Origin, comparing real life events to Gundam, Resident Evil 4 talk, Gundam in general talk, Texan towns like Gun Barrel, DeKalb and O’Donnell, horse riding and country western talk, the Final Fantasy 7 remake, and much more.
(51:42 – 1:41:46) Closing Remarks – Dustin explains his reasoning (or lack thereof) for having a drunk podcast, Dragonball Z general summary, The GRAND RETURN OF GHOST!, Chris Chan demands an embargo on all Gamestop and Best Buy locations, Donald Trump vs. Ever Muslim Ever!, opinions on the Syrian Refugee issue, making movies for North Korea, Jonn grandmother passing, and much more.
Music Selecton:
OP – Our song to enjoy before ani-twitter shows up to ruin it…

AoY Podcast #76 – The Jonn and Daft Movie Hour (Fantastic Four 2015 Review)
Also known as: “I’d rather watch movies with Jessica Alba 100 times than watch this shit again!”
Download Episode HERE! (Total Time – 1:58:35)
I know were supposed to be an anime “podcast” and what not, but when it comes to super hero movies, we can’t help but to cover them on our anime beat. This time we got Jonn and Daft covering the recent box office flop, Fantastic 4.
(0:00 – 17:35) Pre-Review Discussion – This could have been used at the end, but Zeonic just kinda let it be for this podcast. Speaking of Zeonic, he wasn’t on this episode, because he didn’t see Fantastic Four, and this recording was made before the Dragonball Z: Resurrection of F review we put out 2 episodes ago. Here we have Jonn and Daft talking about anime shows, Linkara ranting on Power Rangers Samurai, how Power Rangers sucks, popular cartoons on television now, and Dragonball Super problems.
(17:15 – 1:58:35) Non- Anime Review: Fantastic 4 (2015) – It seems that when movies have problems at the start of the development, they seem to really show by the final product. This seems to be the case for Fantastic 4, which Jonn and Daft spent the rest of the podcast breaking down scene by scene to state their issues with the movie. They go into the backstory on how the director used 4chan to vent his frustrations about the film, and even air some more drama behind the scenes. The two also discuss Marvel movies and TV series in general, and much more in this weeks episode.
We should also note, the episode is at 64kbps, so it’s going to help the file size being smaller, while lowering the quality a bit, but let us know if you can tell the difference.
Music Selection:
OP – Get ready to fear, there here, FANTASTIC FOUR!!
ED – I wonder if the 2000’s films were better?
