Nerdom and Other Nonsense Anime Podcast #135 - Angry Goth Horses in Your Neighborhood
Kat, Leo, and Bcom return to cover the anime that aired during Week 8 of the Spring 2020 season. In the latest episode of Wave, Listen to Me, we learn the hilarious story behind Minare’s strange name. Shinako is finally starting to confront her true feelings for Rikuo, while Rikuo wonders why he’s relieved that they haven’t take things to the next level, in the latest episode of Sing Yesterday. My Next Life as a Villainness engages in some isekai-ception, which has us wondering how deep the layers of isekai will go. An otherwise cute episode of Kakushigoto, about Hime naming their new dog and wanting a birthday party, also drip feeds us more info about her mother’s past. It becomes clear that Akito views Tohru Honda as his rival for the love of the Soma family, and it seems they’re going to end up on a collision course as Fruits Basket’s drama continues to build. Princess Connect falls victim to the episode 8 curse, and panders to its gacha game audience. Kaguya continues its excellent, but frustrating run, with a big tease where we almost see the main characters trick themselves into breaking through their détente. And finally, BNA’s latest episode teaches us that all cops are dogs, literally. Recorded June 25, 2020.

Nerdom and Other Nonsense Anime Podcast #134 - Truck-kun Has Retroactively Isekai'd You
Bcom, Kat, and Leo are back to chat about anime that aired during Week 7 of the Spring 2020 season. Our discussion of Wave, Listen to Me notes the reference to the movie In the Realm of the Senses, but Bcom forgets to mention that this was based on the real-life story of murderous Japanese geisha Sada Abe. We don’t necessarily love the way Yesterday wo Utatte keeps treading water, but we do love the new shmup-styled ED. We learn retroactively that truck-kun claimed another victim – the villainess, Catarina. But Catarina isn’t the only real-world person isekai’d into Fortune Lover… Kakushigoto gets us thinking about our pet’s life expectancy, which is depressing and sad, and becomes even more so when the show draws parallels to Hime’s parents. We struggle to determine whether Shigure is better or worse than Sugar Ray in the latest episode of Fruits Basket, and discuss American vs. Japanese recreational traditions. Princess Connect shows its gacha game roots by introducing more characters without laying the groundwork for us to care about them, but still manages to pull off some nice character development for Pecorine and Karyl. Bcom and Leo talk about their sordid past underwear stylings to discover if they are manwhores according to Yuu Ishigami. BNA touches on the politics of border controls, immigration, and refugee crises in its latest episode focuses on the plight of migratory bird beastmen. Recorded June 15, 2020. Timestamps: 0:57 - Nonsense (Kat goes laid-back camping but for some reason can’t remember most of it, Leo very slowly experiences Destiny 2’s first live event, Bcom talks about the Playstation 5 reveal event and EA is finally making a spiritual successor to Bcom’s favorite game of all time with Star Wars: Squadrons) 17:18 - Wave, Listen to Me!

Nerdom and Other Nonsense Anime Podcast #133 - Flying With Your Balls and Midseason Cuts
Leo, Kat and Bcom are back to chat about anime that aired during Week 6 of the Spring 2020 season. It’s midseason again, and that means it’s time to decide which shows to keep, and which shows to drop as we move forward. Things are getting awfully fishy in the latest episode of Wave, Listen to Me, and we pitch the idea for a new product called “gamer girl kuchikamizake.” We rave about Rikuo’s ex-girlfriend, Chika, in Sing “Yesterday” and wonder how we’d react if our ex-partners forced their way back into our lives. We worry that Bakarina can’t feel safe even when surrounded by her closest friends and family, because it turns out they’re pretty creepy sometimes. Clair undergoes a very strange “ritual” to determine whether she is trustworthy to join a new group of gatherers in the latest episode of Gleipnir. We get into a big argument that comes down to, “whose hat was it?!” when discussing Fruits Basket. The producers of Princess Connect decided to pay Kana Hanazawa good money to talk to a stump of wood for about 5 minutes, and it was money well spent. It’s student council election time in Kaguya-sama, as Miyuki and Miko face off in an epic debate in front of the entire school. With Nazuna’s introduction, our conversation on BNA inevitably goes off the rails into a full-on discussion on cults and religion. We then discuss potential replacement shows before moving into a lengthy bargaining session while deciding midseason cuts. Recorded May 31, 2020. Timestamps: 1:28 - Nonsense (Bcom watched Paradise Kiss and it rocked. Kat plans to re-start Animal Crossing fresh in the Northern Hemisphere. Leo is overwhelmed by trying to figure out Phantasy Star Online 2 and decides to return to Final Fantasy IX.) 14:38 - Wave, Listen to Me!
