On this episode join the club as hosts Dennis, Ed, and Kate discuss Goku Midnight Eye, and this title was picked thanks to a mysterious Ko-Fi benefactor of our own! Being another cyberpunk, hardboiled detective series directed by Yoshiaki Kawajiri, you should already know what to expect. Fun action, gorgeous and terrifying women, pure evil baddies, and just overall weirdness. And the one question that just kept popping into our heads during the discussion: why does Goku not wear a shirt? 0:00:00 - Introduction & Some Anime News 0:09:36 - The Watchlist 0:37:18 - Production Notes 0:44:40 -...

On this episode, join Ed, Kate, Karen, Dennis, and Eron from Riot Games as we talk about episodes 14-17 of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone complex. This batch is all about greed, as a hit is put out on a billionaire, selling military secrets, and blackmailing the mafia. Fem uses coins for bullets (aka Cash the Stampede). We still get to bask in Olympic fever with Zaitsev, the silver medalist boxer from the Paralympics. And Aramaki's old flame has to booby trap a wine bank, Home Alone style. But the worst of it all? Something is up with the Tachikoma. 0:00:00 - Intro & Some Anime News...
