Show Notes 0:00: The hosts of TheOASG Podcast explain what they’ve been up to over the past few weeks. For Helen, it involved reading A Witch’s Life in Mongul and watching Jaadugar: A Witch in Mongolia; for Justin, he describes the craziness of Anime NYC 2026. News 32:34: Once Crunchyroll announced their changes to their store back in July, it was only a matter of time before they went the route of completely eliminating all sorts of print books from their store, short of it being an exclusive; Cool Japan was once a thing, and both Justin and Helen had to really think about the impact this initiative from the Japanese government really made following news that reportedly it will not have much funds in 2027, thus effectively ending it. 36:25: sooncha will switch publication of Yang Can’t Live Alone from Square Enix to a new publisher in Japan, which seems to have had a major impact on its English release; The Manga Mirai service will shut down later this year, which prompted both hosts to wonder how long this platform lasted (not very long); After 13 years, NHN Japan Corporation’s free manga app Comico will end service in January 2027; We will once again have a new imprint in the English publishing market very soon, and it’s a somewhat familiar name. 45:51: Coco Uzuki's got health issues and needs to adjust her schedule, so her Fall in Love, You False Angels manga is slated to return in Kodansha's Dessert magazine in November; Shiwasu Hoshikawa’s Bungo Stray Dogs STORM BRINGER manga will go on a long-term hiatus due to Hoshikawa’s health; and Shō Aimoto lost her brother a few weeks ago, so Kemono Jihen will go on hiatus for a bit. 47:15: Comic book and manga letterer Dave Lanphear passed away at 58 a few weeks ago; legendary voice actor Peter Cullen died at 85, according to his family to TMZ, peacefully on Wednesday at his home in Los Angeles, which led to a number of tributes and remembrance, not just of him as Optimus Prime, but for his role in growing Toonami thanks to all the promos he did.

The novel is written by 103, while the manhwa features art by ligong, with an adaptation by MAGMA PASSION manhwa, written by Yuuji with art by GangJak and an adaptation by Hound Healer, a web novel by Mechanist GKIDS (1:24:50): North American rights to Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust anime film and the live-action film of Makoto Shinkai’s 5 Centimeters per Second anime film Streaming News 1:27:29: With the movie doing numbers in Japan, Amasian TV is making episodes of the Chiikawa TV series available to watch for free; The Irregular at Magic High School THE MOVIE – Yotsuba Succession Arc – will be in theaters starting November 1; after being taken off the service some months ago, 86 is now back on Crunchyroll. 1:29:40: The 3rd Mononoke film will be on Netflix September 29; RetroCrush is adding several VIZ anime distributed works to their service, from several Naruto movies to Vampire Knight; Detective Conan: The Million-dollar Pentagram premiered at Anime NYC and is now on digital storefronts — it is also notable for using the all-new English dub cast that we’ve heard from the collections on Netflix and Crunchyroll, which gets Justin to think about a survey a few ANYCs ago where a question was asked about using them or the prior studio for the films; No more Crunchyroll can be watched on your Nintendo Switch in November, for reasons that more than likely work out for both companies. 1:34:13: Let’s just say Chainsmoker Cat has gotten a bit of notoriety for a couple reasons, and now it’s new claim to fame is having the anime removed from streaming services in Hong Kong. Weird News 1:35:17: Helen discusses the crazy situation that occurred involving Rou Bao Bu Chi Rou’s The Husky and His White Cat Shizun: Erha He Ta De Bai Mao Shizun, where the novel got announced to be a manga drawn by long-time BL artist Ayano Yamane and then days later got suspended for things the artist brought up involving anti-Chinese and anti-Korean sentiments on social media, meaning it’s now added to the pile of works not adapted into another medium. 1:41:26: So there is a proposed theme park project involving France and Saudi Arabia that was announced, and it was reported that a theme park is expected to be based on the Dragon Ball franchise — the problem? According to a French newspaper, the project has not received approval from the rights holders, so we got a current case of he said, she said! And someone is wrong. 1:46:17: Not anime, but all the same, Please Save My Earth is returning after decades to get a live-action work on Prime; the Maria Holic manga is back, getting a sequel after 12 years; TMS Anime announced that Baki Gaiden: Retsu Kaioh wa Isekai Tensei Shitemo Ikkō ni Kamawan is receiving a TV anime adaptation…for some reason! 1:50:20: We got some One Piece and Detective Conan collabs happening thanks to Universal Japan; Krispy Kreme collaborating with Pokémon; and yes, you can support Masako Nozawa turning 90 by buying a few things of hers, including a baseball hat depicting her from youth!

fWotD Episode 3400: The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Wednesday, 26 August 2026, is The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest.The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest (also known as Jonny Quest: The Real Adventures) is an American animated television series produced by Hanna-Barbera Cartoons and broadcast on Cartoon Network from August 26, 1996, to April 16, 1997. It is a continuation of Jonny Quest (1964) and The New Adventures of Jonny Quest (1986) and features teenage adventurers Jonny Quest, Hadji Singh, and Jessie Bannon as they accompany Dr. Benton Quest and bodyguard Race Bannon to investigate strange phenomena, legends, and mysteries in exotic locales. Action also takes place in the virtual realm of QuestWorld, a three-dimensional cyberspace domain rendered with computer animation. Conceived in the early 1990s, Real Adventures suffered a long and troubled development.Hanna-Barbera dismissed creator Peter Lawrence in 1996 and hired new producers to finish the show. John Eng and Cosmo Anzilotti completed Lawrence's work; David Lipman, Davis Doi, and Larry Houston wrote new episodes with reworked character designs akin to those of classic Quest. Each team produced half of the show's fifty-two episodes. While Lawrence's team crafted stories of real-world mystery and exploration, later writers used science fiction and paranormal plots. Turner supported the show through a massive marketing campaign with 33 licensees. Real Adventures debuted with an unprecedented wide release on Cartoon Network, TBS, and TNT, airing 21 times per week. Critics have debated the show's animation, writing, and spirit compared to classic Quest, but it has also received praise for these same reasons.Real Adventures failed to gain high ratings with its target demographics, and its merchandise performed poorly, leading to its cancellation after 52 episodes. Since the show ended, reruns have aired on Toonami, CNX, and other Turner networks. Turner Home Entertainment and Warner Home Video have released eight VHS tapes and two laserdiscs, and all 52 episodes are available on DVD and for digital purchase on the iTunes Store.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:09 UTC on Wednesday, 26 August 2026.For the full current version of the article, see The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Emma.

Ode (@thatsod.e / @thatsod_e) and Mo AKA Kid Licorish (@licorishislegit) welcome comic book creator Gerald Goodwin Jr into the Snurdyverse for a bonus episode built around his series Kairu, Slayer of Kaiju. Gerald walks through the premise of a twelve year old granted a symbiotic alien suit that reacts to his emotional state, and traces the idea back to influences including Neon Genesis Evangelion, Blue Beetle, and the classic Stan Lee era of Spider-Man. The conversation moves into his lifelong Godzilla fandom, touching on the Monsterverse films, Godzilla Minus One, the original 1954 Gojira, and Godzilla vs Mothra, along with the atomic bomb metaphor built into the earliest kaiju films. Gerald also breaks down why the kaiju villains in his own comic represent real struggles like anxiety, self doubt, and guilt.Anime comes up as well, with Gerald crediting Toonami for shaping his early taste and naming My Hero Academia, Attack on Titan, and Dragon Ball among his favorites. Gerald shows rough storyboard art from the upcoming issue six of Kairu for the first time in any interview, revealing a new character they nickname Mr. Steel Yubbage. The episode closes with the recurring mental health check in, a Big Mad segment covering topics like the reception of the Supergirl film and Hollywood's pattern of misreading what made Barbie successful, and a Happy segment where Pop-Tarts and Ratatouille both make an appearance.Connect with the Snerdy CrewWatch, Listen, or Sponsor the show: ⁠⁠https://beacons.ai/blackandsnerdy⁠⁠

Anime did not cross into Western culture in one clean movement. It arrived in fragments, through edited TV dubs, bootleg tapes, playground obsessions, fansubs, late-night downloads, and eventually legal streaming platforms.In this episode of Geekstorians, Dave picks up where Season One's ‘The Anime Underground' left off, following anime's journey from cult import to global mainstream force.We begin at the 2003 Academy Awards, where Spirited Away won Best Animated Feature without sanding itself down for Hollywood. From there, we rewind to the late 90s, when Dragon Ball Z exploded on Toonami and taught a generation of viewers to expect serialised storytelling, consequences, cliffhangers, and men screaming in fields until the landscape reconsidered its options.Then came Pokémon, a franchise that became so massive, so quickly, that many Western children did not even think of it as anime. It was just Saturday morning television, playground trading, Game Boy link cables, and the dangerous social power of a shiny Charizard.The episode also looks at Studio Ghibli's very different crossing: a studio that refused to compromise, resisted Western editing, and eventually saw Spirited Away become the first Japanese film to win the Oscar for Best Animated Feature.Finally, we move into the digital era, where fansubs, piracy, simulcasts, and Crunchyroll transformed anime distribution. What began as a fan-built workaround became part of the legal streaming infrastructure. The underground became the industry.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/geektown. Hosted on Acast.

Show Notes 0:00: Justin and Helen finally are able to talk about things they’ve been up to!…Well, Justin’s been up to finally watching the new season of Medalist now that it’s on Hulu and experienced paying to go to a theater for the first time since COVID-19 (all for Uma Musume: Beginning of a New Era). Helen on the other hand has finally watched Journal with Witch (2 episodes so far) like the rest of the cool people! The hosts then get ready to talk about the news over the past few weeks. And it begins with one of the worst anime/manga news that’s ever been covered on this podcast. News 6:13: Shogakukan’s Manga ONE editorial department issued a statement and an apology this past Friday regarding manga creator Shōichi Yamamoto, after the editorial department had allowed Yamamoto to publish a new manga on the service under a pen name after he had been arrested and convicted of a sex crime. The details are not only many but it also can be triggering. It’s fairly staggering, so you’ll want to check out Anime News Network and Strict Algorithm for all the details, but a quick summary: Shoichi Yamamoto returned as a writer for Joujin Kamen, with Eri Tsuruyoshi drawing the series in 2022, despite his arrest and conviction of a sex crime in 2020 and making sure the artist was not aware of Yamamoto’s past since he is now known as Hajime Ichiro. An editor for MangaOne was involved in this situation, even going so far as to try and strike a deal with the victim. Once details emerged this past Friday of how awful the crime was and that the publication covered it up, many manga artists — from those working for Shogakukan to those not working for them — were angry and for those working for Shogakukan demanded not only a proper response but to have their works removed from MangaOne. Then Saturday, Shogakukan announced they will set up an investigative committee that will include lawyers to clarify the facts of the situation. Both hosts discuss this horrifying scandal as they know it and what this ultimately says about Shogakukan (21:10) — and as Justin expected (26:48), more news would eventually emerge over time after the episode was recorded on Sunday, and yesterday, while continuing their internal investigation of MangaOne, Shogakukan revealed that Tatsuya Matsuki, the writer for act-age who was convinced of a sex crime in 2020 and dismissed from Shonen Jump with the cancellation of that manga, was hiding under the pen name of Miki Yatsunami while working on a manga on the service (Seisō no Shinri-shi). We at TheOASG send our apologies to the victim, Eri Tsuruyoshi, and those affected by this situation. 26:57: Media Do, considered the largest e-book distributor in Japan (and sold off their shares of MyAnimeList last year) has acquired Seven Seas Entertainment for US $80 million dollars. More details emerged since the two hosts talked about it on Sunday, and it was concerning to where Seven Seas had to put out a statement yesterday. Expect both hosts to again discuss more about this partnership in the next episode. 33:29: The two hosts discuss the “Ring Ring Live in Osaka” concert event put on by the Himitsu no AiPri staff was cancelled due to threats; Helen goes over Sho-Pro Books (Shogakukan-Shueisha Productions) announcing that its contract to publish Marvel Comics titles in Japanese will end on March 31; and Manga Mavericks Books now has a distribution deal with Pathway Book Service and with Gazelle Book Services Ltd for Europe so we’ll be able to see their print books on certain retailers soon. 39:27: The Gift-o’-Animation studio’s founder and former president Satoshi Mori passed way February 20 after battling an illness for some time; Talent agency Haikyō announced in February that voice actor Masaru Ikeda died on January 31; And Kodansha shared on their Instagram that Vertical publishing company’s co-founder and Kodansha USA Editorial Director Ioannis Mentzas passed away a few weeks ago. Licenses 41:55: Last episode the hosts talked about a bunch of companies licensing manga. This episode the two about more things getting licensed by companies, first with VIZ: Hyuganatsu, Minoji Kurata, & Touko Shino's The Apothecary Diaries: Maomao's Notes on the Inner Palace Kotoyama's Call of the Night: Paradise Arc Inio Asano's Heroes Shuzo Oshimi's Sound of a Blink Paru Itagaki's Witching Hour Glitch Productions and Gooseworx & Sakura's The Amazing Digital Circus Akihisa Maki & Miki Yatsubo's Albus Changes the World Asato Shima's The Seaside Where Dragon Boys Dwell Yori Katakura's Yakuza vs. Cat Esu Omori's Shiba Inu Rooms Agatha Christie & Aya Nikaidō's And Then There Were None Renka Misaki & Yūto Suzuki's Sakamoto Days: Assassin’s Blues LN 3-in-1 edition of Mizuho Kusanagi's Yona of the Dawn Soshichi Tonari's Horror Picture Book: Looking at Me, with illustrations by Junji Ito My Hero Academia Box Set 2 Jujutsu Kaisen Complete Box Set (Will also include Volume 0) Black Torch Complete Box Set One Piece Box Set 5: Wano to Egghead My Hero Academia: Ultra Artworks art book Dorohedoro Illustrations: Mud and Sludge art book The Studio Ghibli Chronicles book 46:10: Square Enix announced they’ve licensed the following works: Natsu Hyūga, Itsuki Nanao, & Touco Shino's The Apothecary Diaries: Xiaolan's Story Gyūnyūmugigohan's Boyish Girlfriend Mugimo's My Ex-Boyfriend Loves Boys’ Love!

My Dress-Up Darling Season 2 Official Anime Fanbook Asaki Asagiri & selen's The Princess Groom 47:52: SuBLime had a couple announcements during their Valentine's Day event — Puling's Sunshine in Hades, Fumi Tsuyuhisa's Robin in the Veil of Night, & Natsuki Kizu's Given 10th Mix; meanwhile Seven Seas announced this during their Citrus Con panel that happened on Sunday that they’ve licensed IROHA MEGU's WOLFHOUND and two Hayate Kuku manga (STRANGER: A WESTERN BL & MARCHEN) 48:30: Michi Masaki's Tell Me, Dear Butler, Robico’s To Dusk and Twilight, & Jun Wakatsuki's Promise Me the Spotlight is now on K MANGA; Takumigraphics, the new spinoff imprint from Fantagraphics, has licensed Gengoroh Tagame's Do You Remember the South Island’s POW Camp? which shocked Helen; Tei Monaka & Komari Kuro's All-Rounder Maid Connie Ville has been licensed by new publisher Crossed Heart; and Eke Shimamizu's The Maid I Admire Looks Good with a Cigarette is now on Manga UP!. 49:30: Manga Mirai has a couple new additions to their service; The Lady version of Cells at Work! will be put in print by Kodansha; and the two hosts discuss Glacier Bay Books taking up what Matt Haasch wanted to do with Star Fruit Books as they announced they’ll be handling the publishing line moving forward. 54:56: MediaOCD and AnimEigo announced they’ve licensed Master of Martial Hearts & Sketchbook ~full color’S~, both expected to release this year. MediaOCD also announced the new round of titles it is adding to its store as part of the Discotek Deep Dives initiative (a good amount); meanwhile Discotek has a couple re-releases upcoming this year and a Patlabor OVA coming at some point; And finally, Sentai Filmworks has licensed Heavy Metal L-Gaim, which continues Sentai just out of nowhere licensing an older work. Streaming News 1:00:02: The Madoka Magica movie has a new release date, and you can hear the two hosts editorial thought process in this moment as they decide no matter what happens — if it screens in Japan or if it doesn’t — it will wind up in weird news somehow; Akane-Banashi will have people be able to see it, but at this moment, not on your typical anime services…which will be shocking for a Shonen Jump property. 1:02:59: We have some screenings going on in the US — Anime Central will screen the original anime Goodbye, Lara in May; Next week people will be able to watch a 4K restoration of Kiki’s Delivery Service; and Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Part 1 will also see another screening, which leads Justin to wonder when he’ll watch it since Crunchyroll doesn’t want to stream it yet! 1:04:51: The Me and Robico film has been added to Crunchyroll; Hulu and Disney+ will stream the Rooster Fighter anime in a few weeks (will first debut on Toonami); and Hulu now has the HD versions of the Pretty Cure English dub on their service. 1:05:58: The Criterion Collection’s streaming service Criterion Channel announced will add Gunbuster: The Movie and the first season of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex sometime in March; Hideaki Sorachi’s debut one-shot manga Dandelion is getting an anime series adaptation that will stream exclusively on Netflix starting in April; and that 18+ site Oceanveil (who also sometimes streams non-18+ anime) will stream in advance the English-subtitled first episode of Do You Like Big Girls? and Marika’s Love Meter Malfunction. Weird News 1:08:23: Pokémon’s 30th Anniversary is this year, and there’s lots of things going on with the franchise…starting with the original voice of Ash Ketchum (Satoshi in Japan) doing a Let’s Play in celebration and, well, the franchise sharing their 30th Anniversary logos. All 1,025 of them! 1:10:07: Let’s just say the highs and lows of Japan are covered in this section, from a very shirtless buff man as a hanger to an AI buddharoid. 1:12:34: Two of Japan’s famous properties — Crayon Shin-chan and Sazae-san — are gonna cross over; We got a story involving recent gold medalist and Olympic star Alysa Liu and how she has a Pochita! 1:15:41: And finally, apparently Amazon really wants to be a big player in the anime destination game, which we would take seriously except there’s no real sign that they’re actually serious about it at the moment!

Launch all Valkyries! In this week's episode of Mutagen Men we climb aboard the SDF-1 to face down the Zentraedi and the other marauding aliens facing the world of Robotech, which featured a mashup of three different classic mecha anime TV series. Airing in the 1980s and later on Toonami in the 90s, the show was a gateway into the wider world of mech anime and featured a landmark toyline from Matchbox as well as a host of merchandise produced by other companies in the years following. Join us as we explore the varied corners of these lines and try not to talk too much about Harmony Gold!  Follow along:  https://www.toyarchive.com/Robotech/main.html  https://web.archive.org/web/20070117220527/http://www.robotechmuseum.com/toyindex.html  https://www.flickr.com/photos/evil_king_macrocranios/albums/72157632938993771/

It's late August and you've just returned home. With a heaviness in your step, you open your front door, kick off your shoes, drop your backpack by your bedroom door, and flop onto the couch just in time to catch the opening of your favorite show. Your parents, who won't be home for a little while, don't really get your taste in television these days but honestly, when have they ever? There's something spellbinding and exhilarating about this show and the way all the girls confront unspeakable evils alongside the daily struggles of school and romance. Something speaks to you, something you can't entirely name, but it's real and visceral and it's waiting for you there on the TV every day after school. It's late August, the year is 1999, and you're watching Sailor Moon. This month, Sara and Runa talk about Life After Magic (2022), a game packed to the brim with 90's style and overflowing with love and admiration for Magical Girl stories. While Sailor Moon is the most obvious point of reference here, this game weaves in so many different influences from late 90's and early 00's anime and manga from Tokyo Mew Mew to Yu-Gi-Oh and beyond. The game centers around Akiko, a 22 year old high school dropout who was once Sentinel Starlight, leader of a magical girl group and alien princess here on Earth. Unfortunately saving the world doesn't pay very well and also employers don't exactly consider it a transferable skill, so Akiko works at a makeup counter in the Glamour Pop cosmetics store. Dealing with customers every day is so draining she barely has time to do anything even remotely social – most workdays, she winds down by watching TV with Allistar, her talking cat and magical mascot character. Then, in a development that calls back loud and clear to the first episode of Sailor Moon that aired on the Toonami block in 1999, a gorgeous (and kinda mean) Girlboss CEO arrives to announce a new Sentimentality line of makeup based on the theme colors of the Sentinels. Shortly after, Akiko realizes that her magic is weakening and Allistar calls an emergency meeting... which also forces Akiko to admit that she hasn't been keeping in touch with the other sentinels and lost their numbers. Cell Phones wouldn't be common for a few more years, after all.This launches us into the core of Life After Magic as Akiko manages her time, the stress of her day job, and tries to both reconnect with her former teammates while solving the crisis of magic's disappearance. Each former sentinel has a different perspective on Magic and what their time as Magical Girls really meant (especially given the loaded gender of the term). It's great to see both the characters and narrative unpack 90's nostalgia and the impact magical girl shows and shoujo manga have had on so many of us especially in the queer community. There's also a lot of depth and tiny secrets to uncover in this game, including secret endings and a really great cast of romanceable characters. Also, Akiko's Ex is there and he's the best/the worst. You really have to play to understand.As always, if you enjoy our show please consider writing us a review on your podcast platform of choice!

A long time coming, I am pleased to have Ariel aka AriNicoCosplay join me on the podcast to talk with her about her favorite fandoms. We split the episode in half. The first half we cover the first anime. Ariel and I talk about our anime origins, with hers being with Toonami and staying up late to catch some of the anime series presented on the Cartoon Network. We do deeper dives into two of her current favorites, Dorohedoro and The Apothecary Diaries. From there, we step into the world of cosplay. If you've followed Ariel's Instagram for some time, you'll know that she does incredibly detailed cosplay and cosplay pieces. We talk about how she first got into cosplay, her process when it comes to costumes/costuming, the skills she's learned, and more. We highlight several of her pieces, and we talk about the work that goes into finding the fabrics and items needed.

Anyone who wants to play Horizon Zero Dawn on PC now must pre-purchase Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, assuming they do not already own the 2020 release. Among a few enhancements, such as rerecorded dialogue and updated animations, the sticking point here is the remaster's requirement of a PlayStation Network account. PSN is a service only officially available in a handful of countries, which means that the remaster is now unavailable for purchase in over 170 countries.
