TangleCast 15: Vocaloid

For episode 15, as JP (Japesland) and Jack (R86) give us an accidentally overly-long episode on Vocaloid, sharing not only a brief history of the technology but also our individual encounters with and opinions of it. Both come at this staple of otaku-dom from quite different angles, managing to cover the topic in a unique way. What is it?… Read More TangleCast 15: Vocaloid

Examining Old School Anime: The Effects of Tribulation

Two old school anime got me thinking about this topic: Saint Seiya and Riki-Oh: The Wall of Hell.  Most of our readers have never heard of the latter title, and it can’t be recommended to most.  Riki-Oh is reminiscent of Fist of the North Star in its bloody martial arts violence, and 80’s anime tend not to shy… Read More Examining Old School Anime: The Effects of Tribulation

The catch to this show is that all of the main cast are “unfortunate”, whether it is having bad health, getting lost often, having…… Read More The Secret Stars of Anime: Anne-Happy

Orange Episode 3: Notes Come Too Late

As I mentioned in my previous post, sending letters to your past self to solve serious problems is going to include some drawbacks. Unlike the first episode, Naho paid close attention to the letter, and was starting to believe that she might be able to actually change the future, even if it meant changing herself.… Read More Orange Episode 3: Notes Come Too Late
