Welcome to the D&D world! We're expanding the lore with not one, but two Dungeons & Dragons arcade games made by Capcom!

Why aren't there steamboats in the Known World? Does Past Blaster really think Shadow Over Mystara is the best beat ‘em up ever? What character names are on Capcom's naughty list?

Fated battles await in today's exciting installment of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake: Weebs & Wyrms! First, Dungeon Meshi reaches its halfway point as the party finally faces the infamous Red Dragon. The battle pushes Laios and his friends to their limits, and a grim discovery afterward proves hard to swallow. Marcille may have a solution in the form of ancient dark magic, but the dungeon (and its master) won't make things easy. In Record of Lodoss War, King Fahn and Emperor Beld finally face one another on the battlefield. However, their duel ends with both rulers dead after Karla the Grey Witch intervenes to sow chaos. Certain that Lodoss will never know peace with Karla controlling things, Parn and his party go to confront the witch directly. Sacrifices will be made, but the stability of Lodoss is far from guaranteed. Dragons rise and dragons fall on today's flame-grilled episode of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake!

Our journey through realms inspired by tabletop RPGs continues with another Delicious in Dungeon and Record of Lodoss War combo episode. In the Mad Mage's Dungeon, Laios and his party must traverse the watery Fourth Level while learning a few (harsh) lessons from the dungeon's ecosystem. Then, a surprise encounter with an Undine leaves Marcille drained of her mana. With the help of an old teammate, the party will have to craft an energizing brew if they want their mage to continue. On the island of Lodoss, the arrival of King Kashue in Valis gives Parn the inspiration he needs to become a great knight. While the party gets to enjoy a few fleeting moments of peace, Karla the Grey Witch continues to scheme in the shadows. Emperor Beld begins his destructive advance into Valis, with King Fahn standing ready to face his old nemesis in battle. Make sure to pack plenty of Kelpie liver and a set of loaded dice for today's iron-rich installment of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake!

Another helping of high fantasy is heading your way with both Delicious in Dungeon and Record of Lodoss War. As Laios and his friends venture deeper into the dungeon, good nutrition will be harder to come by. Luckily, Senshi knows a few golems who are good for growing fresh veggies. Another party led by Kabru gets the spotlight for a moment, but they soon fall victim to some bite-sized treasure insects. Laios ventures into some Living Paintings to see if he can grab some takeout, but a mysterious figure grabs him instead. Back in Lodoss, the party finally meets the elf Deedlit. They are soon captured by the soldiers from Alania, who are quickly defeated in-turn by Marmo invaders. The Kingdom of Valis now remains as the last bulwark against Emperor Beld and his forces. A Black Knight arrives, a Princess is captured, and an immense dragon stirs as Parn and his friends fight for answers.

A Duplicitous Dungeons & Dragons Double Dip awaits you on today's episode of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake! The first item on the menu is the recent smash-hit Delicious in Dungeon. After being defeated by a Red Dragon, Laios Touden and his party must quickly reenter the dungeon in order to save his sister from being digested. With no funds to purchase supplies, Laios decides to take advantage of the dungeon's ecosystem and eat monsters as they travel deeper. Laios, Marcille, Chillchuck, and new member Senshi are in for a full-course adventure in an ever-changing dungeon. For dessert, we have the 1990 OVA series Record of Lodoss War. On the island of Lodoss, Parn and his party are on a quest to meet with the great sage Wort. At every turn, they must face the dark forces of Karla the Grey Witch.

Well, it's my highly-clever (ok not really) name for episodes where I go back and revisit an older title I haven't seen in a long time, and see if what I remember (and what my opinions on it) are still the same now that some time's gone by. This month, I dig into a dark 80s fantasy OVA film with character designs by Yoshitaka Amano! No, it's NOT that vampire one you're thinking of–it's the much lesser-known Amon Saga!

In our quest to find the ultimate Dungeons & Dragons show, we're joined by voice actor Bill Timoney for the first of a two-part episode on the anime Record of Lodoss War!

Record of Lodoss War is a high fantasy anime. It's dungeons and dragons meets Lord of the Rings with Oppais. There are a lot of characters and plot points slammed into 13 episodes and we did our best to cover it all. We discuss how things are named in the fantasy genre, and of course we get into the magic of it all. Jordy is surprised to learn that elves can in fact do magic! This episode was a riot and may possibly contain more laughs per minute than any of our previous episodes. SPOILER ALERT!!! Save this episode for later if you want to experience thisshow without a high-energy, often heated, very thorough discourse on it's highand low points.

Oh no! We've been transported to another world where podcasters fight in some sort of Battle Royale (and also Z has been turned into a washing machine)?! This week, we're talking about the fascinating fandom that is Light Novel fans, with special guest, [Justus R. Stone](justusrstone.com)! Next week, we'll be going to another other world... in ... space? Talking about... Galaga?! ## Where can I learn more about Justus R. Stone? [Justus R. Stone](justusrstone.com) is the author of the apocalyptic fiction series, The Bleeding Worlds, and has a podcast ([Light Novel Podcast](lightnovelpodcast.com)) and [YouTube channel](http://youtube.com/justusrstone) dedicated to light novels. You can also find him on Twitter ([@justusrstone](http://twitter.com/justusrstone)), Instagram ([@justusrstone](http://instagram.com/justusrstone)) and Facebook (... [@justusrstone](http://facebook.com/justusrstone)). ## Episode outline ### Fandom Facts **History and Origins:** Light Novels are short (approximately 50 000 words), Japanese novels primarily targeted at high- and middle-school students which are often accompanied by manga- or anime-style illustrations. The "light" in the name actually comes from the lack of hard-to-read kanji (ideographic characters in Japanese). Light novels are sort of the evolution of pulp novels and magazines in Japan: Somewhere in the 1970s, many pulp magazines had started to move away from classic-style covers towards more anime and manga style covers and including illustrations at the beginning of stories. In the 1980s, novels like _The Heroic Legend of Arslan_ and _Record of Lodoss War_ took a hold of audience, as did _Slayers_ and the _Boogiepop_ series in the 1990s (note that many of these were turned into anime). Interest in light novels really took off in the mid-2000s with the success of the _Haruhi Suzumiya_ series. **Search Data:** By Google Trends search volume, [Light Novels have become much, much more popular since 2004](https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=%2Fm%2F06b_0_) and are arguably the most popular they have ever been. Since 2006, they have been on a steady climb upwards with exception to the last few years where interest has been a bit flat. There was a sharp increase in interest between February to August 2015, but we couldn't figure out why. In terms of search volume, the top ten countries for_Light Novel_ are: Japan, Taiwan, Macau, Hong Kong, Phillipines, South Korea, Singapore, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Kazakhstan. [// There is a pretty dramatic decline in interest: Kazakhstan is at 17]: # [// Canada is at 22, with 6; United States is at 26 with 5]: # **Fan Demographics:** Based on some data from the [r/LightNovel Community Survey from 2016](https://www.reddit.com/r/LightNovels/comments/3g2rm5/rlightnovels_community_survey_results/) (with over 1500 respondents): - _Gender_: In the subreddit, overwhelmingly male (95.6%; 3.3% female) - _Age_: Predominantly folks age 17-25 (40% 17-20 years old, 36.5% 20-25 years old) - _Location_: Most of respondents are in North America (51.1%) but many in Europe (27.2%) and some in Asia (11.1%) Some other interesting bits of data from the survey: - Most folks come to the subreddit for Chinese light novels (57.8%), followed by Japanese (34.9%) - Respondents are predominantly lurkers (74.6%) - Most folks prefer to read by chapter (60.8%) as compared to by book (37.1%) - Most folks do not buy licensed light novels (76.4%) - Most folks do read Western books (78.4%) but do not prefer Western books to Light Novels (66.9%) ### [Last Episode's](http://fanthropological.com/e/366365f057a51a) Famous Last Words **Erica** What do you think are the qualities of light novels as a genre that makes them so interesting as reader and reviewer of light novels? (What are your thoughts about the genre as a whole, and personal interpretation of why you like them) **G** Why 'light' novels? Why

What is a “ReView” episode, you might ask? Well, it's my highly-clever (ok not really) title for episodes where I go back and watch an older title I haven't seen in a long time, and see if what I remember (and what my opinions on it) are still the same now that some time's gone by. Funimation recently announced they'd picked up the original Record of Lodoss War anime, but did you know that there are other series out there tied to Lodoss? This month I revisit one of those with The Legend of Crystania: The Motion Picture! Stream the episode above or [Direct Download] You can also subscribe on itunes & Stitcher!
