Angel's Egg Crossover Cast - with Warui Deshou
Your favorite anime podcast crossover is back! We team up again with the Warui Deshou podcast to dissect and gush over Mamoru Oshii and Yoshitaka Amano’s 1985 masterpiece art film, Angel’s Egg. CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of stillbirth, miscarriage, possible anxiety-inducing subjects such as loss of faith. ***The first half is spoiler-free, see timecodes below*** (This episode follows Warui Deshou's format, which uses more clips and sketch segments than we do, so be prepared for intermittent wackiness) ——— We discuss the film’s gorgeous aesthetics, the lives and other works of the principle creatives, their personal relationships to Catholicism and/or faith in general, and try to interpret what is perhaps the most inscrutable anime film ever made. Interpretations provided are our own, and we don’t claim them to be definitive, exclusionary or authoritative in any way. This episode is very personal, we spend a good deal of time talking about our personal histories and feelings about things beyond (but not unrelated) to the anime itself. We also tried to mix it with moments of laughter and some funnier discussions throughout, but we feel the insights and personal discussions in relation to the film proved very worthwhile. This is a long podcast that covers a lot of topics, so please use the timecodes below to jump around in case, say, you already know all about Oshii or haven’t seen Angel’s Egg and don’t want to be spoiled. | EPISODE TIMECODES: 00:00:00 – Opening Bits and Bobs 00:10:54 – The Budget Grail: Which Anime Character Would you Want As A Dad? 00:26:40 – All About Oshii and Amano 00:54:29 – Plot Summary & SPOILER-FREE Discussion 01:37:17 – Personal Relationship To Faith & Ideas In The Movie 02:01:20 – SPOILER-IFFIC Discussion 03:16:21 – Correspondence 03:25:00 – Outro Playlist: Nobuo Uematsu – Tina’s Theme N.E.R.D. – Maybe David Pringle and Bob Heatlie – Spin to Win Wild Beasts – Albatross Massive Attack – Angel Modest Mouse – Dramamine Kyrie Eleison Agnus Dei kensuke ushio – Devilman no Uta Argume – Realize Milo – Sanssouci palace Chance The Rapper ft.
