HinaCast
Welcome to the unexpected, but definitely understandable, bite-sized finale to HinaCast. After a long hiatus: One half of our hosting cotierie, Geoff (sans Pip) is here to wrap-up our journey into the Hina Hellmouth at Episode Three of the Series. As well as utterly fail to count to Nine. What have we learned? Did the "Horror of Hina" truly peak at episode two? These and many other questions, may remain unanswered. But we want to thank you for being part of this brief, upsetting, but deliciously satisfying discussion. Like a trifle made of salt. Thanks again. Until Next...

Our hosts, Pip and Geoff continue to steady their blades to enact the final cross-counter on Love Hina's third episode. Pip flexes multiple child-based vocal impressions while Geoff consistently continues his upsettingly convincing creepy Keitaro voice. Our hosts then enact some mad bushido on: Traditional gender roles, samurai action economy, volcel energy, and roving gangs of uncles. Exposit at the nearest hot springs, bookmark the WebMD definition of "Love Sickness," and grab your nearest attack umbrella. It's Love Hina.

Welcome to episode three of Love Hina, finally! Pip and Geoff begin a two episode examination of the newly-arrived fetishistic fixation: The stoic, samurai girl Matoko. Our hosts place their getas firmly onto the warrior's path and hone their souls against: The lost "Hatsune Miku Scene" from American Psycho, tornado blowjobs, the persistent spectre of Shinobu, and anime boys in female-only spaces. Pour one out for the pair from Di Gi Charat: For our now-former self-insert characters are, as of episode three, thoroughly cancelled.

Spoilers: No, it isn't.
info_outline HinaCast! - Episode 3 - A Weaponized FriendzoneHinaCast
Pip and Geoff reach the finale of the Love Hina's first episode and its excessively-long, semi-nude chase sequence.

Or something even more insidious: The Friendzone.
