This week we ditch the old ways and embrace a new mindset. The news isn’t gone, but we got bored reporting on people doing their jobs so we decided put it all to one side and focus on the important things, so join us on our journey of animation enlightenment.

Our featured anime are Shimoneta: A Boring World Where the Concept of Dirty Jokes Doesn't Exist (Shimoneta to Iu Gainen ga Sonzai Shinai Taikutsu na Sekai), and One Piece collection 16.

This week we ditch the boring old news and trailers and try to have an actual conversation about animation. It’s such a shocking thing for a podcast about animation to do, but we stick with us as we try not to put our feet firmly into ... it.

Our featured anime are Wish Upon The Pleiades, Ergo Proxy and Digimon Adventure tri. Chapter 1: Reunion.

Things get a little ranty this week as we try to work out if long-running shounen are still relevant, or if the desire to produce the next One Piece/Dragon Ball/Bleach/Naruto is nothing more than a false hope.

Our featured anime are Little Busters! Refrain, Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Dark Side of Dimensions and Boruto: Naruto The Movie.

(Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka), before we devolve into a search for weird geek merchandise.

I’ll Have a Bahamut on Ice

We kick off with our featured anime this week (Rage of Bahamut: Genesis and A Certain Scientific Railgun S), before things degenerate into an impromptu discussion about dubbing, redubbing, and rebooting.

The Worst Kept Secret in Anime

This week we’ve got movies galore with the Mobile Suit Gundam movie trilogy (I, II: Soldiers of Sorrow and III: Encounters in Space – we had to break Mark out of Gundam rehab for them), followed by a special treat called The Boy and The Beast (Bakemono no Ko) – which leads us on to a discussion about Mamoru Hosoda’s other works.

The Censored Brow

We kick things off this week with our featured cartoon and anime (Monster Musume: Everyday Life with Monster Girls, Netflix’s Bigmouth and Ushio and Tora), and those somehow lead us on to seasonal holidays and mockumentaries.

Farmer Goku's Fight Club

This week we forego any preamble and dive straight in to our featured anime.

With Girls und Panzer: Der Film, Mark proves that his addiction to anime beginning with the letter G looks set to continue. Meanwhile, Tucky gets suuuuuuuuuperrrr! with Dragon Ball Super season 1 Part 1 (Episodes 1 to 13), after which we explore the inner workings of a most epic night out in Masaaki Yuasa's The Night is Short, Walk On Girl.

Also, who wouldn't want a Girls Und Panzer - Dominion: Tank Police crossover?

Now With Added Mathservice

It's a strange thing when a show about animation doesn't actually feature any actual cartoons or anime, but we do have some related and very interesting things instead.

First up is Andrew Osmond's Ghost in the Shell - a book that covers the production, influences and legacy of the original animated movie that was released in 1995.

After that the gloves come off and we get really nerdy with the Association of Japanese Animations' Anime Industry Report for 2016.

Satoshi Kon's Anime Sausage

The times, they are a-changing …

45 years after their original team-up, Batman once again joins forces with Scooby Doo and the rest of the Mystery Gang. Meanwhile, Sony complete their purchase of Funimation (a lot faster than we expected), and Anime Ltd. move into music distribution.

Our featured anime movies are Satoshi Kon's psychological thriller Perfect Blue and Makoto Shinkai's supernatural drama Your Name.

Peter Rabbit's Death Star Fundraiser

The trailer for Sony's new Peter Rabbit movie is out so we decide to share our thoughts on it (which aren't very positive to be honest).

Then it's time to get to business with season 20 of South Park and a Pokémon double-bill of Indigo League and the 20th movie in the franchise - I Choose You! After that it's time to get serious with the Sunao Katabuchi's stunning adaptation of Fumiyo Kouno's dramatic wartime slice-of-life manga In This Corner of the World.

Gundam’s Glorious Jazz Hole

The 26 animated feature films that have been shortlisted for an Oscar nomination have been announced so naturally, we're going to see what all the fuss is about …

Before all of that though, our first order of business is visiting Mark who is currently wallowing in mech-hell after his addiction flared up again due to the extreme musical stylings of Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt. After that we're off to explore the forest in Goro Miyazaki's adaptation of Astrid Lindgren's children's novel Ronja: The Robber's Daughter (Sanzoku no Musume Ronja or Ronja Rövardotter) - which is also the first ever anime TV series produced by Studio Ghibli.

Scrooge McDuck's Human Trafficking Operation

Shocking revelations abound this week!

First we discover that Batman is actually a ninja in the trailer for the cunningly titled animated film Batman Ninja. After that we’re left positively thunderstruck by Akira Toriyama’s claim that Saiyans need S-cells to become super.

All together now … MIDICHLORIANS!

It’s enough to send Mark searching for some quiet time on The Magic School Bus but instead he gets the mediocre "Rides Again" sequel. Then it’s off to Academy City for A Certain Magical Index The Movie: The Miracle of Endymion before Tucky regales us with some new and improved(?) DuckTales. After all of that it’s time for a relaxing dip in the sea with Masaaki Yuasa’s absolutely delightful Lu Over The Wall.

Magic Mushroom Milk

So we finally hit the big one hundred mark, and it’s been … emotional.

Okay, so in actuality we forgot our birthday (blame it on old age), but we do have some interesting things to talk about this week. We start with the 45th Annie Award nominations for Best Animated Feature and Best Animated Feature - Independent, and more importantly why they annoy us.

After that it’s down to serious business with the epic-sounding Undefeated Bahamut Chronicle (Saijaku Muhai no Bahamut), Satoshi Kon’s captivatingly surreal animated feature film Paprika and the comedy series with the greatest background character in anime - Haven’t You Heard? I’m Sakamoto (Sakamoto Desu ga?).
