    It's February, and that can mean only one thing! It's time for our annual Valentine's Day episode!This episode is not one for the kids (yes, I can see you reading this boy) and neither is the show we're discussing, so if you're one of our younger listeners we'd advise skipping this one.The show in question is the 2003 ecchi martial arts series Ikki Tousen.This franchise is now old enough to drink, and good thing too because it has some pretty heavy adult themes through it!This series is a time capsule - of a time where the line between anime and “chicken formal wear” was very clearly defined. But compared to more recent ecchi shows, Ikki Tousen seems out of place.So is it worth revisiting?VIDEOS!Kawaii-Fi YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/KawaiiFiKyle's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@KyleinOrbitTifa's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/thetkennedy SUPPORT USPatreon: Patreon.com/KawaiiFiBuy us a Coffee: Ko-fi.com/kawaiifi JOIN THE KAWAII-FI COMMUNITYFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/KawaiiFiAnime/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kawaiifianime/Threads: https://www.threads.net/@kawaiifianimeTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@kawaiifianimeDiscord: https://discord.gg/p9ccFx8vTQ LISTEN ELSEWHERE?Spotify: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-FiSpotifyApple: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-FiAppleYT Music: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-Fi-YMCastbox: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-FiCastboxGoodpod: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-fiGoodpodAmazon Music: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-FiAmazonPocket Casts: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-FiPocket EPISODE SEGMENTS00:00:00 – Show Opener00:04:02 – What We're Watching00:23:54 – Retro Classic: Ikki Tousen00:51:49 – Anime Communique01:07:57 – Green Tea, Hobbits and travel plans!Tags:anime,podcast,anime news,anime podcast,anime reviews,anime recommendation,Valentines Anime,Ikki Tousen,Battling Venus,Ikki Tōsen,一騎当千,Ecchi anime,Retro Anime

    WE'RE BACK!This episode, we dive into an under-appreciated Studio Ghibli film that started its production run as something incredibly different!The Cat Returns may not be the first film to jump to mind when you think of big Ghibli productions, and it had an unusual start to its existence – as a spin off project commissioned after Whisper of the Heart was released!So why the character overlap? Is this an interconnected Ghibli Universe? And why is this English dub so incredible???Answers to all these questions, plus what we've been watching this season and a library worth of anime news for us to talk about in this episode!Also, apologies for that unplanned hiatus – Kyle is feeling much better now and is back on deck!VIDEOS!Kawaii-Fi on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/KawaiiFiTifa's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/thetkennedySUPPORT USPatreon: Patreon.com/KawaiiFiBuy us a Coffee: Ko-fi.com/kawaiifiJOIN THE KAWAII-FI COMMUNITYTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@kawaiifianimeInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kawaiifianime/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KawaiiFiAnime/Twitter: https://twitter.com/kawaiifianimeDiscord: https://discord.gg/p9ccFx8vTQLISTEN ELSEWHERE?Smart Link: https://link.chtbl.com/KawaiiFiSpotify: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-FiSpotifyApple: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-FiAppleGoogle: https://bit.ly/Kawaii-FiGoogleEPISODE SEGMENTS00:00:00 – Show Opener00:03:02 – What We're Watching00:30:03 – Miyazaki – The Cat Returns00:56:51 – Anime Communique01:21:13 – Show OutroTags:anime,podcast,anime news,anime podcast,anime reviews,anime recommendation,Studio Ghibli,The Cat Returns,Reborn as a Vending Machine,Helck,My Blissful Marriage,My Happy Marriage,Sugar Apple Fairy Tale,Zom 100,Whisper of the Heart,Tsukihime,Suzume,Miyazaki,How Do You Live,The Boy and the Heron,
