A good mystery is like a good croissant: I bet it's been a while since Kotaro Uchikoshi has made either. Heyoooo! Jen and Six are joined by former cohost Olivia and special guest Kim to tackle the sequel to AI: The Somnium Files, and the latest game by the creator of the Zero Escape series. It's time to dive into the minds of suspects to determine the TRUTH behind the Half-Body Killings. And also get very exasperated, because this is not the sequel that Jen, Olivia, and Kim were hoping for. (Six never played the first.)

Did you know that your Irises aren't fully identical? Each of your eyes contains a slightly different pattern of color and lines that formed long ago,  each one unique even within the same person. No matter how many eyes you search through in the world, it's possible that you'll never find one with an Iris pattern exactly like your own. In this way, our Irises could serve as unique identifiers in the same way that retinal scans and fingerprints already do, which leads us to an important and definitely relevant question: if the cops tried to use your eye to charge you with murder, would that be fucked up or what?This week, Sara and Runa reach the conclusion of their playthrough of AI: The Somnium Files as they finally play through all of the B side routes, unlock blocked pathways, discover the identity of a Mysterious Person 'X', and learn the valuable lesson that all along, it's the MILF right beside us that we should've been swooning over. If you haven't checked out our first episode on AI: The Somnium Files, then you should definitely go back and give that a listen before continuing: There will be both spoilers here for the game in general and elements of our discussion that pick up where we left off in part 1.As we mentioned in our last episode, AI: The Sominum Files (2019) is a sci-fi crime procedural,  psychological thriller, Kotaro Uchikoshi puzzle, and at times a gritty Noir drama following Special Inspector Date Kaname as he tracks down clues about a series of brutal serial murders. In the B side routes of the game, surprisingly few murders occur by comparison - Shoko Nadami still dies at the very start of the game, but while many other people are put into serious danger and the threat of death looms closer than ever, the New Cyclops Killer doesn't claim quite so many victims here... What could have caused this difference? Why does Date sometimes remember the events of previous routes just when he needs to recall that vital information? Why does Date see Iris's frozen corpse in Mizuki's Somnium? Who is So Sejima's son? And, most of all, how many times will boss pull Date aside and say those three special words that every supercop wants to hear: 'Psync with them!'Also, please listen through to the end to enjoy hearing Runa's live reactions to the Nirvana Initiative trailer, which she had heretofore never before seen. You can watch along and listen to Sara and Runa's reactions in real time by watching the version of the trailer in this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isYEhEMpHfk As always, if you enjoy the show please give us a rating and review wherever you listen!

What did you dream about last night? Do you remember it clearly? Was it a dream of a fantastical, impossible place? A nightmare woven from old memories? The precise scene filled with highly accurate evidence that a police detective can use to catch a big break in a serial murder case, maybe?This week, Sara and Runa dive deep into AI: The Somnium Files and experience Forensic Dream Investigations first-hand. In the perhaps not-too-distant future, we follow Date Kaname and his AI eyeball partner, Aiba, as they arrives to a surreal and abandoned amusement park. The sky is dark overhead, rain falls steadily, and atop one of the merry-go-round horses Date finds the corpse of the first victim, Shoko Nadami. This opens the investigation into the mysterious New Cyclops killings, chasing down the culprit (or culprits?) responsible for a series of increasingly twisting, baffling murders. At the end of it all, what awaits Date and Aiba is...AI: The Somnium Files (2019) is a sci-fi crime drama, psychological thriller, and Kotaro Uchikoshi puzzle wrapped up in a slick, saturated, and highly stylized presentation. The game follows Date Kaname, an investigator for the MPD's Advanced Brain Investigation Squad (ABIS) alongside his partner, Aiba, who mostly hangs out in his left eye socket since she's an Artificial Intelligence housed in a prosthetic eye. Six years ago, Date lost his left eye and all memories of his prior life in an incident that probably won't be at all important to the ultimate unraveling of this game's deepest secrets, maybe. After the initial investigation at the abandoned amusement park, they find Mizuki - The 12 year old girl who Date has taken care of for the past four years, and also the daughter of the Shoko Nadami. Through their investigations, Aiba and Date piece together the timeline of Shoko's last moments, uncover the links between a net idol and this case, and then try to help Mizuki recover from the trauma of seeing her mother's death. The best way to do that, as it happens, is through the game's central mechanic: Psycing. Whenever Date and Aiba psync with another character, they can dive into the Somnium - the dreamscape of that person's mind made up of an assortment of their real memories manifested in strange, surreal patterns. While some of these Psyncs are relatively direct memories that Date and Aiba are investigating in search of concrete evidence, others are more abstract locations full of someone's trauma, half-remembered moments, and deep secrets. In this first of two episodes on AI: The Somnium Files, we cover every A route path (with the exception of the AB route, which is locked until we get further into the game).  We see a fanboy and stalker come clean about his role in covering for his idol's suspicious activities, we watch Mizuki become an action hero and Date finally become a Dad to her, and we flail around as everything, and everyone, falls apart. What will Date and Aiba find at the end of all this? The truth about six years ago? The identity of the killer? Or, perhaps, will it be something that shakes the  city and the MPD to its foundations...? As always, if you enjoy the show please give us a rating and review wherever you listen!

Esta semana venimos con un Podcast de los buenos, de los que duran casi tres horas y hablamos de muchos temas con pasión y fervor. Empezamos repasando las noticias de manga-anime hablando de la tercera parte de Top wo Nerae! Gunbuster anunciada por GAINAX. Hablando de la vuelta de grandes obras, Hayao Miyazaki volverá a hacer una nueva película tras su fracasado intento de retirada. Tampoco nos olvidamos de la vuelta de otro de los directores más queridos en esta casa: Yutaka Yamamoto estrenará su nueva película en 2018. Seguimos con la confirmación de una nueva serie animada de Jigoku Sh?jo Yoi no Togi. Seguimos con una ronda de noticias desmentidas: de momento seguimos sin nueva temporada de Tokyo Ghoul y sin fecha para la primera película de Fate/stay night: Heaven’s Feel. En la ronda de premios de esta semana, Koe no Katachi y Yuri!!! on Ice han triunfado en el Tokyo Anime Award Festival 2017 y Yuri!!! on Ice ha ganado el premio de los fans de Animación del Año del TAAF. Terminamos la parte de anime hablando sobre las OVA de Digimon Adventure tri. y los primeros detalles de su quinta parte, Symbiosis. Además de hablar sobre Love Live! Sunshine!! y Sword Art Online: Ordinal Scale. En el lado de los videojuegos, aunque todos los focos se centran en Nintendo Switch y The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, también tenemos tiempo para hablar de algunas noticias: Ya tenemos fecha para la salida en Steam de Dangaronpa V3: Killing Harmony, junto a la localización del mítico 428: Shibuya Scramble. Spike Chunsoft también ha presentado el próximo juego de Kotaro Uchikoshi, Project: Psync. Square Enix tampoco se ha quedado corta de novedades anunciando la fecha de lanzamiento de NieR: Automata en Steam: 17 de marzo y presentando su nuevo RPG producido por Hideo Baba: Project Prelude Rune. Cerramos hablando de Berserk and the Band of the Hawk, el musou basado en la obra de Kentaro Miura. Terminamos el podcast con las preguntas de nuestros oyentes: una selección de preguntas hechas por todos vosotros mediante nuestro Curioscat. Os animamos a dejar vuestras cuestiones para el próximo programa.
