FAP-221 - When The Wind Rises - Passion Flys With Help

This week we talk about a recommended movie called When Wind Rises and it follows the life of Jiro. While the person and what they accomplished is true there are a fair number of creative liberties taken for how they were. It shows the true passion someone can have and how love can also change a person for the better. Join us as we rise with the wind. Next week's choice is RIddle Story Of Devil. Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know what you thought of them or...

FAP-220 God Eater - Game Not Required

This week we talk about God Eater which to say for Rick was a treat but for Jack not so much. The discussion that they have is full of fun and banter like always but they just can't some of the plot protection that are in the series. Next week's choice is When The Wind Rises.

FAP-219 How Not To Summon A Demon Lord Season 2 - More Ecchi With No Answers

This week, we delve into why it's best not to call forth a Demon Lord, exploring some rather dubious situations along the way, where clothing is seemingly an optional extra. Despite its brief run-time, this season opened up multiple plot-lines and only resolved one, alluding to the possibility of a follow-up season. Rick appears to be the only one who is pushing for a third series, while Jack appears uninterested and nonchalant. Next week's choice is God Eater. Have you seen next week's choice o...

FAP-217 Summertime Rendering - With Special Guests CJ and HMG

Jack had two special guests on the podcast this week as Rick wasn't able to attend. Taking a novel approach, neither HMG of "Will I continue Podcast" nor CJ of "Anime Anonymous" had seen the anime of discussion before. His aim was to pitch a convincing argument as to why his listeners, as well as his guests, should watch it. Did Jack achieve his goal? Next week's choice is "And you thought there is never a girl online?". Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know w...

FAP-216 - The Saga Of Tanya The Evil - She Just Wants The Easy Life

Taking a journey down memory lane with Tanya the Evil was an enjoyable experience, as the story was solid and the artwork spectacular. Despite this, Rick seemed unable to resist getting bogged down in minor details. Has Jack been able to supply him with the answers he needs, or will his inquiries remain unresolved and leave him in a state of puzzlement? Next week's choice is Summertime Rendering. Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know what you thought of it or ...

FAP-215 - Recovery of an MMO Junkie - They Only Fed Their Addiction

This week we visit a quant show that was enjoyable and easy to watch. The character development was solid and the story was fun. It is a show that anyone can connect with. This is also a show that would be a good introduction to anyone that is looking to get into anime and does not know where to begin when looking for a comedy romance show. Next week's choice is The Saga Of Tanya The Evil. Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know what you thought of it or recomme...

FAP-214 - From Up On Poppy Hill - We Had Our Signal Flags Up

This week's choice was a great one. And it was one that Jack's wife lived as well. The artwork was on point the music was on point and the story flowed effortlessly. You have the great makings of a story and it is delivered with flying colors. That being said, if you are looking for the usually magical and fantasy world that you have come to expect from Ghibli then this will disappoint you this is a movie that is more so grounded in reality so the expectation should be of that and nothing more. ...

FAP-213 - Link Click - A Picture Links with a Click

This week we travel back through time with a picture to gather some information. And like this show things don't always go as planned. With that being said the story is lacking and you are in a state of just being. Towards the end of the show they introduce a new element to it all which interrupts the flow of it along with the time traveling aspect of it just makes it feel of. But they do touch on certain aspects of it time traveling making it easier for you to follow and understand. Next week's...

FAP-212 - Erased - He Kept Trying To Fix It

This week we talk about Erased and it was a solid show for both of us. And though we don't have too deep of a conversation about it there can be several conversations that can be had on this as it does touch on several aspects of life some of which can provide you an insight as to how the general population is as a whole. Next week's choice is Link Click. Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know what you thought of it or recommend what we should watch next! Do yo...

FAP-211 - Noir - No It's Not A Mystery

We Talk about a mystery of a show on why people thought it was good. It was a slow show that made no sense at all. The music selection was bad the story did not make sense and it was not worth the time to even watch it for us. In all honesty when looking at MAL for what they scored it made us question why people loved it. Next week's choice is Erased. Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know what you thought of it or recommend what we should watch next! Do you ha...

FAP-210 - Horimiya - We Got To Be Ourselves

This week is a solid choice and one that we both enjoyed. It was an enjoyable and easy to watch show. While it does mainly focus on the relationship of Hori and Miyamura it does give all the other characters that they focus on their justice and own development. Making it a very well rounded story. And while it does not shine in any particular area it does not lack either. It is one that we will be watching again and it is worth the watch if you have not seen it already. Next week's choice is Noi...

FAP-209 - Big Fish And Begonia - And It Was Not Bologna

This week we have varied views on this movie. For Rick, it was a beautiful great movie, and for Jack not so much. Jack ultimately brings up some views on why he was not really impressed with the movie which swayed Rick into a lower score than what he had been planning on giving it but for him, it was still a solid movie and worth the watch. Next week's choice is Horimiya. Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know what you thought of them or give us a recommendatio...

FAP-208 - Call Of The Night - And We Heeded The Call!

We talk about a double recommendation that we received and we honestly both really enjoyed it. The music for Jack played a big part for how the show was but for Rick unless it was the intro or outro it was not noticed. But regardless the story was good and mellow which makes for an easy watch that most would enjoy. Next week's choice is Big Fish and Begonia. Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know what you thought of it or recommend what we should watch next! Do...

FAP-207 - My Dress-Up Darling - Courageous To Be Yourself

We talk about a solid and delightful story. But even with the story not going off into the weeds, we do a few times for various reasons. But even with that it just speaks to how we felt about the story and the enjoyment that we got from it. The Story is solid and the ecchi for it rather than being overdone or tasteless was done in a way that made it a driving force, in a good way, for the show and the character development. Next week's choice is Call Of The Night. Have you seen next week's choic...

FAP-206 - When Marnie Was There - Shallow But Meaningful

This week we talk about When Marnie Was There and it was a solid movie but it was also not very deep in terms of substance however it can lead you to some deep conversations but also some fun and interesting conversations. We fell it is well worth the watch for everyone. Next week's choice is My Dress-up Darling. Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know what you thought of them or give us a recommendation on what we should watch next! Got a show you want us to wa...

FAP-205 - In This Corner Of The World - A touching Heartfelt story.

Rick is back! And we talk about the movie In This Corner Of The World. It is a solid movie that tells what it was like for one family in Japan in the years leading up to and the conclusion of World War II. And the story that it tells is a very touching and heartfelt story. if you have not seen it then you should take the time to watch it as we think you will enjoy it like we did and it is one that the whole family can watch. Next week's choice is When Marnie Was There. Have you seen next week's ...

FAP-204 - Only Yesterday - With Special Guest CJ

This week we have a special Guest CJ from Anime Anonymous to help fill in while Rick is out. And with this choice that was for this week's episode, we do not envy him in that it was a rough movie to get through. The movie is almost 2 hours long but it felt like a lifetime had passed while we watched. It was a Sub-par movie with a sub-par story and it just did not have great animation in it at all. This is something that we both feel like it could have been done better. Next week's choice is In T...

FAP-203 Fragtime - It was good but could be better.

This week we dive into an interesting love story. It feels like it could be tied into the other series entirely but at the same time because it is different enough it should not fit. But the biggest thing for us on this one is that we feel it was not given the justice it deserved for the animation. It should in our opinion be better than what it was. Still, it is a decent watch if you are wanting something a little different than what you have been. Next week's choice is Only Yesterday. Have you...

FAP-202 Redline - A Racy Story

This week we talk about a great movie that we both really enjoyed. There were some things that we focused on but overall we had fun with the movie and it complete what it set out to do. If you are looking for a fun high-speed movie that is pure entertainment then this movie is for you. Just do look too deep into the ending of it. Next week's choice is Fragtime. Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know what you thought of them or give us a recommendation on what w...

FAP-201 Millenium Actress - It Was An Entertaining Story

This week was a solid choice though we were a little split on how we felt. But at the base of it all, it was a solid story and one that is well worth the watch. That is not to say we did not have our issues with the story, but even with our issues with the story, it was still a decent movie to watch. Next week's choice is Redline. Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know what you thought of them or give us a recommendation on what we should watch next! Got a show...

FAP-200 Book Girl - Writing Manipulation

We talk about book girl and honestly, for us it was not that great of a movie. There were many faults with it, the animation was not good and it felt lacking, and with us it just did not feel like a great movie. How it ended and the mystery part of it just left us wanting more from it but in the end, we did not get it. Just disappointment. Next week's choice is Millennium Actress. Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know what you thought of them or give us a reco...

FAP-199 Children Who Chase Lost Voices - We Are Defiled!

We Get lost in the weeds. and journey to the center of the earth to find our answers and even then we are still left with questions. But we did have fun with the story and trying to figure it out. Even still it was a good story and it was a decent watch. However, we would like to know some hard facts. But still, it was fun and we enjoyed talking about it. Next week's choice is Book Girl. Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know what you thought of them or give us...

FAP-198 Belle - In The End, We Are All The Same.

What a great choice by CJ and we thank him for the great recommendation. The story was solid and enjoyable. The contrast in animation style. The art and music for it were all done beautifully. The deeper meanings behind everything for us and the sub-story that was going with growth were well done. It is certainly a movie that we highly recommend. Next week's choice is Children Who Chase Lost Voices. Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know what you thought of the...

FAP-197 In The Land Of Leadale - An Easy Watch With No Answers

This week came at the recommendation of Old Jeb and it was a cute easy watch but we were left with so many questions. With the anime still being so new at the time of recording, we can only hope that there will be a season 2. Additionally, there were so many conflicts and inconsistencies that the show actually, to us at least, contradicted itself. But still, it was an easy watch. Next week's choice is Belle. Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know what you thoug...

FAP-196 The Secret World of Arrietty - Those Beans Are Dangerous!

It was another recommendation from Angel from Chile. But this time it was not as great as the other ones that were recommended but it still was a solid choice. The story was solid especially since it was adapted from a 1950s children's book. The artwork and thought that went into it was solid and the world-building made it a beautiful work of art like always. But sadly even with all that it was still a meh experience for us. Next week's choice is The Land Of Leadale. Have you seen next week's ch...

FAP-195 Weathering With You - All about Rainy Boy and Sunshine Girl

Another great recommendation for us we both really enjoyed this week's choice and we really have fun with it. We delve into the show and our views on some aspects of it. The story behind it is fairly solid even though there are some things in it that make you go "Hmmm". Over all though it is worth the watch. Next week's choice is The Secret World of Arrietty. Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know what you thought of them or give us a recommendation on what we ...

FAP-194 Maquia: when the promised flower blooms - A Book Written In Fabric

Another great recommendation for this weels choice and we both loved watching it. It was a movie that told a touching story about growth love and loss that spans the years of a couple of individuals. 1 that lives for hundreds of years and a normal human raised by her. This is certainly one that needs to be watched and it has its heartfelt moments. Let is know what you thought of it! Next week's choice is Weathering With You.

FAP-193 Combatants Will Be Dispatched! - He Was Chosen with a Dice Roll!

This week talk about the Combatants Will BE Dispatched! which was a recommendation from Ace and CJ from Anime Anonymous Podcast. Check out the episode link below! This week's choice was a fun one for us. Though it did get a little weird at times it was still a good show to watch. If you have seen KonoSuba you are likely to enjoy this. There is one bugaboo though. There is 1 character that just rubs us the wrong way (the other characters in the show too felt the same way.) So if you are easily of...

FAP-192 Promare - Good for some Not for others

This week we talk about a movie that is throwing a party every few seconds, called Promare. It was a palate cleanser for Rick but for Jack on the other hand not so much. But even with their differing views on it. They both have fun talking about it as well as trying to figure out key points in the story. Next week's choice is Combatants Will Be Dispatched. Have you seen next week's choice or one of the previous ones? Let us know what you thought of them or give us a recommendation on what we sho...
