Other topics of discussion include several large sporting events, and details about a new Anime that might be added to JR's view list based on feedback from Nef and Bri: Smoking Behind the Supermarket with You.Note that there are some communication issues with Nef in the second half of the show that causes his video to be slightly out of sync.The Extreme Anime Radio Podcast brings you news, information, insights and commentary into the world of Anime and Japanese culture.

On a cold day, there's nothing quite like curling up indoors with a good book. This month , we've picked the opening theme song from the latest Japanese anime, ”Ascendance of a Bookworm: Adopted Daughter of an Archduke”. - 寒い日は家の中で読書、もいいですね。今週は日本の最新アニメ「本好きの下剋上 領主の養女」のオープニング主題歌をピックアップしました。SBSの日本語放送は火木金の午後１時からSBS3で生放送！火木土の夜10時からはおやすみ前にSBS1で再放送が聞けます。SBS日本語放送ポッドキャストから過去のストーリーを聞くこともできます。無料でダウンロードできるSBS Audio Appもどうぞ。SBS 日本語放送のFacebookとInstagramもお忘れなく。

A tiny concert moment turned into a full-blown fandom mystery: when Jun Matsumoto grabbed a drone mid-song during the ARASHI show, it instantly reminded us of Jungkook doing the same thing on the BTS tour. So we do what we do best and start digging. Who grabbed the concert drone first, was it happening across multiple shows, and is it pure coincidence that both groups were touring in Japan around the same time?From there, we zoom out into bigger questions that every J-pop and K-pop fan ends up asking sooner or later: how long can groups really last, what the “seven-year itch” looks like in the industry, and why Arashi's long history gives us hope for BTS's future. We also celebrate BTS's AMAs wins, talk about what major U.S. recognition can mean, and bring back the goal that still cracks us up because it's also dead serious: SUGA wants a Grammy.We don't skip the messy side of pop culture, either. We react to legal action tied to defamation and misleading headlines, and we vent about the Ticketmaster class action email many fans just received. Then we get back to the good stuff: Arashi's upcoming Blu-ray and DVD release, STARTO talent updates like Takahisa Masuda's Yellow fashion brand, Snow Man finally putting a huge catalog on streaming, and Takuya Kimura's album and tour news.We close with a very real weekend recap: braving cold sideways rain for the Hello Kitty Cafe Truck pop-up in Boston, then finding out a meteor caused a sonic boom nearby hours later.

Nante Japan's review of April and May 2026, featuring segments on Arashi's final concert, MUSIC AWARDS JAPAN 2026 nominees, the accessibility of Japanese music, Kauan Okamoto's new career as a host, more STARTO music being made available digitally, and more.

A final concert can feel like a party, a farewell, and a time capsule all at once and ARASHI somehow makes it all work. We watch the We Are Arashi 2026 finale from Tokyo Dome and hit record immediately, because sitting with those feelings in silence was not an option. What follows is our honest, slightly scattered, very emotional recap of the night that closed a 26 plus year run and reshaped what a J-pop goodbye can look like.We talk through the moments that made the livestream feel huge: a Dome full of rainbow penlights, cinematic camera angles, drones, and those bold stage effects that swing from wonder to intensity in seconds. We also dig into the setlist pacing, from early high-energy throwbacks to the pair of emotional songs that detonated our tear ducts way too soon. If you've ever felt like one track can hold an entire era of your life, you'll know exactly why that section hit so hard.Then we slow down for the details that fans love: the outfit changes, the little bits of humor, the juniors on stage singing along, and the campfire-style staging that turned a stadium into something strangely intimate. Finally, we unpack the farewell speeches member by member, including the surprise moments when even the most composed voice starts to crack, and why the final song feels like a deliberate last gift.If you're watching replays, debating a Blu-ray purchase, or just trying to process the end of an era, this conversation is for you.

Growing up, emi emi didn't want to speak Japanese. She simply wanted to be like everyone around her. But as she got older, she began reconnecting with her Japanese roots and grappling with the fact that she couldn't speak the language. That experience led to the creation of emi emi, a Tasmania-based music project born from her desire to reconnect with the language and her heritage. - 「子どもの頃は日本語を話したくなかった。みんなと同じでいたかった」と話すエミエミ。しかし大人になり、日本にルーツを持ちながら日本語を話せないことに複雑な思いを抱くようになりました。そんな思いから生まれたのが、タスマニアを拠点に活動する音楽プロジェクト「エミエミ」です。SBSの日本語放送は火木金の午後１時からSBS3で生放送！火木土の夜10時からはおやすみ前にSBS1で再放送が聞けます。SBS日本語放送ポッドキャストから過去のストーリーを聞くこともできます。無料でダウンロードできるSBS Audio Appもどうぞ。SBS 日本語放送のFacebookとInstagramもお忘れなく。

Almost exactly one year after Season 6's Expo 2025 deep dive with Sachiko Yoshimura, the Krewe closes the loop with two people who were actually there. Lea Disimone & Bridget McCarthy served as Youth Ambassadors at the US Pavilion during Expo 2025 Osaka, and they share what the program was really like from the inside, from a day in the life to the lasting impact it left on them. Two New Orleans connections, one world's fair, and a conversation worth the wait. ------ About the Krewe ------ The Krewe of Japan Podcast is a weekly episodic podcast sponsored by the Japan Society of New Orleans.

In the fourth episode of the season - not the third as was mentioned in the beginning - JR and Nef focus the show on JR's entry into the world of Spotify and the creation of playlists based on his former anime radio show, and Nef's preview of the annual Anime North Anime Convention in Canada and the Anime North Charity Auction to support Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children.

New TV anime series 'Kami no Shizuku (The Drops of God)' started in Japan. For this week, we introduce the opening theme song, ‘hate you? love you?' by Hokuto. The anime story, which follows a quest to find the finest wines in the world, also features famous Australian wine regions. - 日本でスタートしたTVアニメ「神の雫」。そのオープニング曲である、Hokuto の「Honto」を紹介します。最高のワインを探すストーリには、オーストラリアのワイン名産地も登場します。

One malicious YouTube channel. Real financial damages. A clear warning shot from a major label. We kick things off by reacting to SM Entertainment's lawsuit win against Sojang for defamation tied to EXO, Red Velvet, and aespa, and why it feels like the industry is finally drawing a harder line on harassment, rage bait, and targeted personal attacks. If you've ever wondered what “artist protection” looks like when it leaves the press release stage and hits the courtroom, we talk through the stakes in plain terms.Then we jump across to Japan for a run of updates that are all about live music momentum. T.N.T, led by Yuya Tegoshi, lands a Nippon Budokan debut concert, and we unpack why Budokan carries legendary status for rock and pop artists. We also get into SixTONES announcing a stadium tour schedule, plus Number_i hosting fan meeting events with strict fan club rules. If you follow J-pop tours, ticketing systems, and venue milestones, this stretch is packed with practical context.We also slow down to flag something every fan should take seriously: scam listings and fake livestream pages. With Arashi-related warnings making the rounds, we share a simple mindset for staying safe online by sticking to official sources. From there, we hit more headlines, including Jesse joining a Keroro Gunso anime film, the messy NewJeans and ADOR legal fight with asset freezes and legal team shakeups, KATSEYE canceling a Music Bank appearance, and YG's updates on BABYMONSTER plus future group plans. And because we are us, we close with a story about BLOODYWOOD, a shout to Diljit Dosanjh, and how music can sneak into your subconscious and come out as a wildly vivid dream.Subscribe for more music news, share this with a friend who lives for pop culture headlines, and leave us a review if our rambles keep you company.

The anime production keeps growing exponentially, someday it will swallow us all like an unescapable flood of expanding spray foam. The crew is watching so much anime that we need a full cast to even scratch the surface of what is available. We have daemons, witches, lovers, haters, obtuse comedy, none obtuse comedy! Plus our usual slate of "what fresh hell is this" news and recommendations of good things to make up for it. What are you watching this season?

 Nante Japan's review of February and March 2026, featuring segments on international fans being turned away at Arashi's farewell tour, Koda Kumi being dragged after announcing she's pregnant at 43, RADWIMPS' Noda Yojiro's work on Kanye West's new album, “The Japan Gold Disc Award 2026”, and more. and more. 

2026 Show Notes Addendum:    To round out our second (and final) visit to the realm of backwards VGM (and very closely related non-VGM) on Nerd Noise Radio, let's replay the 2020 original series, which was also a two-parter, but instead of being two "equal billing" parts, it was a one part "episode proper" and then a supplemental Ch F "F-isode" bonus. In addition to being one of my all-time favorite projects to work on in show history, the series also marked an important turning point in show history as the first installment was our last ever NNR broadcast on the main feed to be produced in GarageBand on MacOS (except for the deliberate call-back that was C1E75 in 2023), and the F-isode was my first ever production in Audacity and Ardour in Linux (then Ubuntu Studio (KDE), now, Fedora (GNOME)). Original Show Notes below are largely faithful to the original with one MASSIVE exception: the tracklist is now populated with all the relevant track info, where it was originally withheld to keep the mystery and mystique alive. Lastly: in case anyone is wondering what on earth is happening in the outro: I figured since it would be backwards, and nobody would ever hear it forward unless they either took the initiative to reverse the file themselves, or else find the [quote] "UNBACKED" version on Archive.org, they'd never know what on earth was being said, I decided to forego the standard outro script, and just go nuts. I read a chocolate chip cookie recipe I found online on the spot, and included snippets from every previous episode blooper reel in show history to that point as well as various other sound clips, such as slow-mo vids of my kids, and fresh snippets provided by my brother-in-law Brian Peterson. Anyway, that's what's happening in the outro. I wanted it to be as preposterous and baffling and chaotic as possible!   ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Original Show Notes (modified to show track names on 04/20/2026):   ------------------------------------------------------------------------   Today's broadcast is C1E52 for Wayback Wednesday, April 1st, 2020. It's April 1st, dear listeners, and we haven't had a retrospective in AGES! In such dark, uncertain days as we face today, it's extra important to have a look back at brighter, clearer, saner days as a reminder that as the wheel of time continues to churn, we will inexorably find our way back.   So, sit back and relax as we travel back through 2hrs 25min, and 56 sec of Nerd Noise History and Nostalgia on a program we're calling “Backtracks”.   It is certain to be an experience unlike any other!   Tracklist (ALL TRACKS ARE PLAYED IN REVERSE - except Intro)!

Prepárate para continuar uno de los especiales más ambiciosos de Rejugando con esta segunda parte dedicada a Final Fantasy X-2, una secuela única dentro de la saga que rompió moldes y abrió un nuevo camino en la historia de la franquicia. Dirige y presenta RaffaValencia, acompañado por Eva Farto, Adrián Plaza, Mike Bueno y Jose Arkangellus en un programa de más de 4 horas donde se analiza en profundidad todo lo que rodea a Final Fantasy X-2. En este especial nos adentramos en la primera secuela directa de la historia de Final Fantasy, desarrollada por Square Enix, explorando su contexto, su desarrollo y todas las claves que lo convierten en uno de los títulos más debatidos de la saga. 🔹 El origen de Final Fantasy X-2 Analizamos cómo surge la secuela tras el éxito de Final Fantasy X, el papel de “Eternal Calm” como punto de partida y las decisiones creativas y comerciales que llevaron a Square a dar este paso histórico. 🔹 Historia y evolución de Spira Un análisis profundo del mundo dos años después: el cambio social, las nuevas facciones, la “Calma Eterna” y el viaje de Yuna en busca de respuestas. Exploramos todos los temas narrativos, su tono rompedor y su enfoque completamente distinto al original. 🔹 Yuna, Rikku y Paine: un nuevo enfoque Estudiamos el giro radical en los personajes, la creación del trío protagonista y el enfoque inspirado en la cultura pop de la época, con influencias claras del cine y la música de principios de los 2000. 🔹 Sistema de juego, vestiesferas y misiones Desgranamos uno de los sistemas más originales de la saga: el cambio de clases en combate, la estructura por misiones, la enorme cantidad de contenido opcional y por qué es uno de los Final Fantasy con más minijuegos. 🔹 Música y cambio de identidad sonora Analizamos el giro musical respecto al original, con un enfoque más cercano al J-Pop y a una identidad completamente diferente a la de Nobuo Uematsu, marcando un contraste clave en la experiencia. 🔹 Curiosidades, desarrollo y polémicas Desde ideas descartadas (como precuelas o historias alternativas) hasta decisiones controvertidas en tono, diseño y narrativa. Un repaso sin filtros a todo lo que rodeó su creación. 🔹 Análisis completo de Final Fantasy X-2 Un viaje detallado por su historia, estructura, secretos, múltiples finales y todo lo necesario para entender por qué sigue siendo un juego tan discutido… y tan interesante. Este programa está pensado para posicionarse como uno de los análisis más completos en español sobre Final Fantasy X-2, ideal tanto para fans que lo vivieron como para quienes quieren redescubrirlo con una nueva mirada.

Marty Friedman is a multi-platinum recording artist and government-appointed Ambassador to Japan Heritage. He has written three books in Japanese and had long running columns in the Asahi Weekly, Nikkei Entertainment, Cyzo, Big Comic, Young Guitar, Guitar World and Burrn. The show opens with a moving tribute to Ozzy Osbourne, formerly of Black Sabbath, who passed away on July 25, 2025. Friedman then turns to the reason for writing his book, co-authored with Jon Wiederhorn. He talks about the co-writing process and describes it as “putting his musical abilities into words.” His latest solo release, Drama, he calls his best and most romantic work to date — a largely orchestral album that stretches beyond his usual style. He also reflects on the Japanese entertainment industry, the uniquely Japanese idea of heta-uma, idol music, and the role of “cuteness” in J-Pop. Producers such as Tsunku and Komuro Tetsuya play a key role in drawing out this unique appeal. J-Pop carries deeper cultural nuance than outsiders might assume. In addition, Friedman reflects on scandals, music managers ,and his first rehearsal with a J-Pop band.

When it comes to spring in Japan, Doraemon films have become a seasonal tradition. The theme song for the latest remake, the 45th instalment in the series, “Nobita's New Adventure: The Ghost Castle Under the Sea” – “Honto” by sumika - was picked up this week. - 日本の春休みといえば、ドラえもんの映画が「風物詩」になっています。リメイクとなった最新作、シリーズ45作目の「新・のび太の海底鬼岩城」の主題歌、sumika の「Honto」を紹介します。

A final song that feels like a sunrise. We dive into ARASHI's “Five” with full hearts, tracing the way bright production, tight harmonies, and lyrical nods to their history create a farewell that lifts instead of lingers in sorrow. From the first grin-to-tears listen to the wave of memories sparked by the MV's visual echoes, we map how one track can carry years of friendship, inside jokes, and stagecraft without leaning on cliché goodbye tropes.We also sit with the week's emotions around Ohno's announcement and what choosing freedom looks like after decades of service to fans. Rather than disappear, the group offered a ritual of closure: a new single, a dome tour, and room for everyone to say thank you. We love the return of longtime collaborators (Hikari and Tomoki Ishizuka), the smart 5:55 release flourishes, and the record-setting Oricon response that shows how powerful this community still is. Along the way, we talk authenticity—why Arashi's variety moments, kindness offstage, and consistent chemistry make nostalgia feel earned—and share fan reflections that capture the blend of joy and ache.If you're searching for context, catharsis, and the small details that make “Five” sparkle, this conversation is for you. We celebrate what was built together, look ahead to five bright individual paths, and hold space for all the feelings that come with a beautiful ending.

Greg Watts• British - Born in Reigate, UK.• DWB Publishing https://www.dwbmusicgroup.com• Greig runs a mentorship program.• He partnered with a couple of song writers.• Keeping The Dream Alive is his book.• Coaches a female football team.• The book is about perseverence and overcoming rejection in the music business.• Howard Jones, Madness, Thomas Dolby. • Greg gravitated yo the keyboards in music.• He worked at a bank for 9 years.• He's had a lot of hits in the Japanese market (JPop).Questions 1. What is the “brutal truth” about the music business?2. You cite Herbie Hancock's “Axel F” as an inspiration. Is your sound rooted in the music of the 80's?3. It's great to use the plethora of tools available to songwriters today. But monetizing is an entirely different battle. How does an artist get compensated for his work today?4. Was there someone who mentored you in music?5. Can you name a song that not only impacted you, but actually changed the world?6. What can a young artist do to implement the structure and discipline required realize their dreams in music? 7. How do handle a situation when a student is just not a fit for mentorship?8. You have had 16 artists perform at Eurovision over the last ten years. What is Eurovision?9. What did you learn about yourself during the writing of this book that you did not know before?10. In your book you show a snapshot of a report card that read “Greg plods along in music without much enthusiasm or interest”. Was that a motivator or catalyst for you moving forward?11. Philopsical Question of the podcast: When we landed on the moon the astronauts listened to “Fly Me to the Moon” by Frank Sinatra. When we land a man on Mars, what will be the theme for the astronauts? (Madness “One Step Beyond”?)Pop music that MTV made famous1. Madness (Our House) vs Thomas Dolby (Blinded Me with Science)2.

The lights go down, the bass hits, and we realize one screening won't be enough. We grab two nights of Stray Kids on the big screen, get our biases wrecked by Changbin's power and duality, and come away convinced: repetition doesn't dilute the moment, it deepens it. Between the close-up interviews, unit stages, and a set design that refuses to sit still, the film turns performance into a masterclass in craft and stamina.We start with something softer but equally charged: what a “final” wave of Arashi merch means when a group has soundtracked your life. Clear files, Uchiwa, and years of magazines aren't clutter; they're a living archive. That sparks a bigger idea—turn collections into a fan-led exhibit at a cafe or gallery, with donations supporting causes that align with the artists' values. Curation by the community, for the community.From there, we widen the lens. Trainee life and dorm pressure echo our own cramped roommate horror stories; proximity builds friction, but it also creates performance chemistry you can't fake. We look at how labels are stepping up legal action against malicious posts and how online “anonymous” doesn't hold in court. And when BTS's V has private messages surface as evidence without consent, we draw a line: public figures deserve boundaries, and consent still matters, even in headline season.We also track industry shifts that signal real change. BMSG moves toward a COO and a risk compliance office—proof that creativity scales best with structure. NUMBER_i taps WME for international growth, hinting at U.S. stages and maybe a tour circuit. And for KCON, we make the Boston case—great venues, easy transit, fans who show up—and map how regional stops can build lasting audiences beyond the usual LA and (once upon a time) NYC anchors.If you're here for fandom realities, tour talk, governance moves, and the thrill of getting your heart hijacked by a performance, you're in the right place. Hit play, feel the rush, and then tell us: which moment stole your breath, and where should the next tour stop land?

It is a privilege to welcome back my friend, Kenyth Mogan, to the Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast.  The Glasgow, Montana, native, now a Los Angeles transplant, released his first full-length studio album, Star Stealer.  The collection paid tribute to some of his favorite singer-songwriters, including Belinda Carlisle (“Live Your Life Be Free”), Tiffany (“I Think We're Alone Now”), and several top artists from the 1980s and 1990s. Recently, Kenyth Mogan and the illustrator Umi Rage released My Super Fiancé. It is a genre-bending Boys Love drama that fuses superhero action with sizzling romance, mystery, and media intrigue. Set in the electrified sprawl of a futuristic metropolis known as Prism City, the story follows investigative journalist Trevor Prince and his fiancé Cole Carter—better known to the world as the vigilante superhero, MoonShadow. As love and danger collide, the two must navigate corrupt institutions, intergalactic conspiracies, and the fine line between truth and power. Told in twelve serialized episodes, each chapter is released with an original song crafted to amplify the themes, emotions, and tension of that episode—turning each release into a cinematic, multi-sensory experience. My Super Fiancé is equal parts superhero saga, queer love story, and social commentary—where power comes at a price, and passion pulls the trigger.On this edition of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Kenyth Mogan spoke about releasing his latest book, My Dead Boyfriend, the 20th anniversary of The Phoenix Chronicles, and what fans can expect from My Super Fiancé's soundtrack.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/jake-s-take-with-jacob-elyachar--4112003/support.

Feel the floor shake from four very different directions as we dive into HANA's punchy Cold Night, i-dle's inclusive Mono, Ado's explosive Angel Seek, and XG's trance-laced HYPNOTIZE. We open with battle-tested fan lore—storms, stadium lines, and those one-gallon bag rules—then move straight into the music that makes all the hassle worth it. This set is women-led, genre-hopping, and unapologetically bold, stitching together punk pop grit, deep house nostalgia, and new metal chaos with one simple throughline: own who you are.Hana's Cold Night hits first, all raw guitar and chant-ready hooks that turn doubt into fuel. It's grittier than their usual polish and perfect as an anime opener, where repetition becomes a rallying cry. From there, i-dle's Mono softens the edges with a velvet bassline and English lyrics that strip labels away. The monophonic vocal design—one voice at a time—mirrors the message: show up as yourself and let the noise fall off. It's club music as a quiet manifesto, built for late nights and clear minds.Then the room tilts. Ado's Angel Seek ricochets through retro rock textures, scratchy vinyl patina, and new metal spikes, a restless sprint that refuses to color inside the lines. It's a masterclass in controlled chaos and pure catharsis. Finally, XG's HYPNOTIZE slides in with a slow burn that blossoms into 90s dance shimmer, camera-click percussion, and vocal handoffs so smooth they feel like sleight of hand. The lyrics say it outright—you're under—and the arrangement makes sure you don't want to leave.If you crave empowering anthems, club minimalism, or a full-on sonic roller coaster, this one's for you.

This is no coincidence! Haruomi Hosono (recommended by both hosts in this episode) was a founder of Yellow Magic Orchestra, a band that pioneered using arcade sounds in pop music. Their 1978 hit “Computer Game” actually sampled sounds from Space Invaders!

This week's pick is the opening theme song from the Japanese animated film ‘Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid: A Lonely Dragon Wants to Be Loved', which will be released in Australia in February. - ２月にオーストラリアで公開される日本のアニメ映画「Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid: A Lonely Dragon Wants to Be Loved（邦題：小林さんちのメイドラゴン さみしがりやの竜）」から、そのオープニング主題歌を取り上げました。

Big feelings, bigger news. We start with pure fandom delight—an anime-inspired artist makeover and a must-have lightstick—before moving through the nuts and bolts of smart show-going: merch game plans, pop-ups, post-show drops, and how a sold-out Boston date changes the strategy for lines, sizes, and travel.From there, we take on the heavier side of music culture. ONF parts ways with their agency but keeps their name, a hopeful template for groups who want autonomy without losing identity. We examine a label's public warning against malicious posts and why legal action matters when harassment escalates from critique to threats. The conversation tackles parasocial lines, airport etiquette, and the way clipped videos distort context. A behind-the-scenes series makes it painfully clear how online abuse hits artists and their families, pushing some off platforms completely. Our stance is simple: support who you love, verify what you read, and choose care over clout.It's not all storm clouds. We cheer ENHYPEN's Sunghoon joining the Olympic torch relay and applaud Hwasa's Good Goodbye sprinting past 100 million YouTube views. We also unpack the abrupt postponement of a major Hong Kong concert just a week out, what that means for ticket holders, artists, and vendors, and why transparency and legal recourse matter. Then we close on a personal high: OK Asia is now syndicated via Pacifica Network, expanding the mission to spotlight Asian music on more stations across the U.S.Join us for a ride that blends practical tips, current news, and a grounded reminder to keep fandom human.

Electronic artist SHIMA fuses dance beats with Japanese sounds on her debut album, Welcome to SHIMAJIMA. She talks with Emily Fox about how the history of Kamikaze pilots, and how a dancing hallucinogenic mushroom trip centuries ago inspired some tracks on her record. She also talks about creating an album for the culturally homeless and shares her journey from being a J-pop star, to a computer engineer to an indie DJ/producer.

From Astro Boy to Gundam to real-world robots like ASIMO and Pepper, Japan's fascination with robots runs deep. This week, the Krewe is joined by author, cultural commentator, & robot enthusiast Matt Alt to explore how robots became heroes instead of threats in Japanese pop culture and how those sci-fi dreams quietly shaped Japan's modern relationship with technology, AI, and everyday automation. From giant mecha and cyborg icons to robot cafés and beyond, we dig into why Japan seems so comfortable living alongside machines in an episode that's equal parts nostalgia, culture, and future tech.------ About the Krewe ------The Krewe of Japan Podcast is a weekly episodic podcast sponsored by the Japan Society of New Orleans.
