Ani-Gamers Podcast

It’s another mega-sized episode as the whole Ani-Gamers gang — Evan, David, Inaki, and Pat — gathers to look back at the pre-Breath of the Wild 3-D Legend of Zelda canon, from the heady days of Ocarina of Time to the franchise black sheep that is Skyward Sword. How do these games hold up now that we've definitively moved into a new era for Zelda games? We cover Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, and Skyward Sword. Topics include: Tolkien comparisons, Wind Waker-likes, and spin to win. Runtime: 1 hour, 38 minutes Direct Download RSS Feed iTunes Spotify Google Music Send us Feedback! Support us on Patreon!

Reuniting for the annual Anime Secret Santa project, Jared and Ink stuff your stocking with opinions about 2004's Planetes via a special episode of Oldtaku no Radio. Thank you, Santa!!! The choices originally presented to Ink were Stars Align, Planetes, Godzilla Singular Point, and Project Blue Earth SOS. When Ink told Jared Planetes was gifted, the stars aligned, and both hosts, who previously only read the manga, decided they needed to watch and talk about the anime, which had been on their radar for years. Since Planetes takes place in space, we've formatted our review in line with our other Oldtaku in Space episodes (available to $5/month Ani-Gamers Patreon subscribers here). See the show notes below if you don't care to hear about the real world and just want to get to the anime hot takes.

We are back at it again with the light novels in this second episode of AGBC Part IV: Book Club is Not Crash. This time, we're reading Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki Vol. 2, continuing the story of a gamer who just can't catch a break inside a high school filled with intimidating normies. Topics include Are You Okay with a (Slightly) Older Girlfriend, Saitama, and anime for bottoms. Post in the Discord or pop off in the comments below on anything and everything AGBC and maybe we'll talk about it on the next episode.
