On the second episode of our two parter, Ash Beardguy, once again chops it up with Mecha Enthusiast and Streamer extraordinaire: Fujimaru Husky.

Fuji recounts some of the horrible experiences he has had in Fandom over the years and Ash talks about the Gundam Fandom's pretty vile reaction to GundamNerd's GBWC USA 2018 win. Ash also mulls over why Build Casters may not get as much engagement as Gundam podcasts with hosts that aren't POC and asks Fuji about what we can do collectively as a Fandom to magnify the voices of Gundam Content Creators from Marginalised Communities.

They highlight the plot and key themes, but really spend most of the episode marvelling at the animation and the fact that Shinkai animated this work single-handedly using technology that seems decidedly ancient by 2020 standards.
