O-talk-u

November's anime discussion includes the first 12 ep drop of JJBA pt6: Stone Ocean (skip to 21:42 to avoid spoilers), the first arc of Revolutionary Girl Utena, the thus-far published episodes of Komi-San Can't Communicate, and Haikyuu! seasons 3&4. NSFW language as usual - I mean how could we possibly be SFW when Johngalli A's thicker than a bowl of oatmeal?

We discuss Star Wars: Visions a month after the fact, then added some highly suggested seasonally-appropriate items to our list! Devilman Crybaby and  Dorohedoro were our October picks, as well as the newest episodes of Way Of The Househusband (sorry, Connor). NSFW language, as ALWAYS!

We can't ever stay on topic, so there's that. NSFW language, references to stunt planes that made Liz sleep-deprived for almost a full week, and the ramblings you've come to know & love from us.

Greg and Liz talk about Fruits Basket (2019) season 1: a trauma trip to the feels zone, how badly Food Wars season 5 went off the rails (foreshadowing), and the wild ride of Kakegurui (gambling addict? gambling freak? no sense of self preservation?). We also begin rambling about Haikyuu!, Annihilation, Naruto? maybe? I don't remember. And definitely Jujutsu Kaisen (again) before things take a wild left turn. NSFW language, screaming, and cackling.

CW: death & dying, violence, queer-coded villians In this episode, we cover Beastars season 2 (spoilers!), Shokugeki no Soma season 4 (spoilers!), Vento Aureo (ALL OF THE SPOILERS), and Record of Ragnarok (mostly boobas but some spoilers). NSFW language, Magellan makes a cameo at the end, and Connor needs to skip everything between 00:34 and 00:47 because he never finished VA.

In June's episode, we discuss watching the entire first story line of Naruto (minus the excessive filler), Sailor Moon Eternal pts 1&2, how much Liz cries watching anime, and our disappointment with the lack of Stone Ocean content revealed at Anime Expo 2021! NSFW language, as always.

This month, we recap and relay our feelings about Bakuten! simulcast, Shokugeki no Soma season 3, the journey of watching Naruto thus far, and Kimetsu no Yaiba: Mugen Train. Liz also drops VA info and Greg talks about what up-coming anime he's excited to see. NSFW language as always!

We consumed a bunch of anime in March/April and talk about most of it in this episode! Big thanks to Cara for letting me talk about her getting peed on 20 years ago. And seriously, twitter artists? I love you all so much. NSFW language as a l w a y s.

In this month's episode, we talk about history, TTRPG-based media, and CGI preferences! Liz's nerdy historian side shows very much. Is Grancrest worth watching? Listen and find out! NSFW language.

Sailor MoonR - The Promise of the Rose! We discuss nostalgia for Liz once again, and things Greg noticed since this was only his second time (ever) watching the OAV. NSFW language of course.

This episode, we discuss ToraDora! and why it means so much to Greg. Liz compares it to SBR, as usual, and your podcast hosts discuss growth, trends, and the human condition. Happy Inauguration Day 2021! NSFW language.

NSFW language in this commentary on the 1987 Dirty Pair OAV. Of course we go way, way, way off-topic, what else is new? Also, we're old AF.

On the day that hundreds of people committed sedition in the United States, we took the time to rank our favorite animated JoJo protags based on a himbo chart I found on Twitter! NSFW language. Agree? Disagree? talk to Liz on twitter (@ lizzybeff).

We give your our top 5 (newly watched) anime of 2020 and our top 5 JJBA parts! Tell us your top 5 in the comments! NSFW language.

It's Christmas week and we tried watching BGC2032 and just couldn't do it. So, we pivoted and watched Endless Waltz, instead! Join us as we talk about how time is an illusion and Dio Brando is literally fucking everywhere. NSFW language, as usual!

Blue Sub 6 is a four-part story about apocalyptic climate change! We watched this when we were teens and revisit it to find out it doesn't hold much nostalgia for either of us. Join us as we try to make sense of it all with NSFW language and, of course, cats.

On this episode, we discuss 1994 classic Iria. NSFW language, nostalgia for Greg, and Liz can't stop talking about horny ghosts.

WELCOME TO SEASON TWO OF OTALKU. Liz and Greg revisit Sailor Moon S (The Movie) for the first time in years and - brace yourselves - one of them cries and the other has some poignant thoughts. We're ranking OAVs/OVAs as we re/watch them, too! NSFW language, as usual.

Buckle in, cause this one's a long one! We bid farewell to not only DIU, but JJBA in general (for now!!!), covering episodes 33-39 in this podcast. NSFW language, spoilers for part 5!!!!!!!!!!!, and cat shenanigans ensue.

Episodes 29-32 of DIU are discussed! We have no idea what's going on, how Stands work anymore, or what Araki was thinking. NSFW Language, as usual!

Election week 2020, on day 2 of counting results and THIS mess happened! Episodes 25-28 of DIU are covered (and recovered and recovered because recording issues happen). NSFW language while discussing Josuhan, horny ghosts, Janken boy, and best alien Mikitaka.

America's in the midst of a wild fucking election ride, so enjoy this coverage of DIU episodes 21-24 instead of constantly refreshing your news coverage! Shigechi goes kablammo, the Crusaders - uh, I mean Stand users of Morioh (and a ghost) - team up to stop a serial killer and Koichi needs to just LISTEN TO JOTARO. NSFW language. Memes abound. I hate 2020.

Diamond is Unbreakable episodes 5-8 are discussed! With new and improved audio! You can hear EVERY SINGLE BURP and I also edited out a bunch of congestion-clearing you're WELCOME. 

Welcome to JJBA part 4! What started this whole endeavor. Is DIU an AU of the JJBAverse?? Tomoko is a total baddie, Okuyasu's head is full of rocks, Josuke is babie, Koichi gets a face full of Joot's crotch, and we also talk about liminal space. NSFW language! 

SPOILERS FOR PARTS FIVE AND SIX! (I did my best to edit out a lot of the ultra spoilery stuff, but you've been warned). We decide which Joji songs embody/vibe with which Jojo characters. That's it. That's the episode. NSFW language!

Our very good friend Connor calls in to help us mull over some questions about JJBA parts 1-3. NSFW language and lots of cackling. Pardon the terrible audio, we're not professionals.

Stardust Crusaders episodes 45-48! We've reached the end of part 3 of JJBA! Mentions of body horror, speculation of what happens in a coffin for 100 years, gratuitous mentions of Dio's dick, etc etc. NSFW language! Diamond is Unbreakable on the next episode!

Episodes 41-44 of Stardust Crusaders are covered in this podcast. We get into a pretty heavy discussion of religious themes, absent fathers, the way Dio speaks. A podcast that goes from anime! to quantum physics?! real quick. NSFW language, as always.

SDC episodes 37-40 are covered today! Why do defensive Stands not take as much damage? How come some stands manifest and others don't? Why do we talk about drinking so much (while drinking)? We never answer these questions, so... *shrug* NSFW language as always.

Hi hello don't mind the cat barfing somewhere in this episode or the utter calamity that is trying to podcast with cats around. ANYWAY. Episodes 33-36 of SDC are reviewed and discussed in a NEEEEWWWWWW format. NSFW language!

Episodes 29-32 of SDC are covered in this rousing conversation! Anubis finds the bottom of a river, the guys still have an unhealthy toilet obsession, Mariah is SUPER HOT like damn like DAMN y'all, and then Alessi is a complete creep.

TW: murder, r*pe. NSFW language. We cover SDC 21-24 in this episode. The crusaders let Pol go off on his own AGAIIINNNNN and Joseph buys a very expensive submarine that instantly gets destroyed.

Greg and Liz drank beers on the beach (while social distancing) and ended up talking about JJBA, of course. Recorded on a phone on a windy day, so this is primo content. We discuss character archetypes, comparisons to other animes, etc. NSFW language, of course!

SDC 17-20 are covered in this episode. Jotaro punches Steely Dan a whole heckin bunch. Polnareff flirts with a woman in a car dealership. Joseph pretends to know how to ride camels. Kakyoin wants to kill a baby (stand user)! So, just another few days on the journey to Egypt. NSFW language.

Episodes 13-16 of SDC are featured in this podcast. Polnareff is driving again; Anne is back (for an episode). Don't fear Qtaro. Qtaro's not real - he can't hurt you! Why do they keep letting Polnareff wander away by himself? Will Steely Dan win over Joot?! NSFW language as usual.

Episodes 5-8 of SDC are covered on this podcast. NSFW language, we try not to spoil too much, make several inappropriate jokes about Star Finger, dunk on Joseph, and speculate if Polnareff has a scat fetish. We're made very uncomfortable by a perverted ape and Liz's past hotel work comes back to haunt her.

We cover episodes 1-4 of SDC and meme along the way. NSFW language, spoilers, all that good stuff.

It has become very clear that physics do not matter in this universe. I don't know how I feel about the phrase "Aztec Hogwarts" and math is hard. The end of Battle Tendency! NSFW language.

We made s'mores before recording and we eat while talking, because everyone loves that. Joseph uses his ultimate technique and Kars turns into a bird! Greg is REALLY FIXATED ON THE MUSIC. NSFW language.

There are no good nazis. Period. Joseph is clueless as to who Lisa Lisa is; good thing we get a whole dang flashback detailing what happened to George Joestar II. Kars becomes holo taco. NSFW language.

First, Caesar gets killed off. Then Nazis return (with Speedwagon and Smokey and a very robotic Stroheim). Starting to really hate this part of JJBA.

Wamuu, the pillar man, whams a pillar. Hundreds of vampires are the peanut gallery in this episode, along with two dummies making commentary. NSFW language.
