Kingyo Used Books with Ed Sizemore


Today we’re talking with Ed Sizemore about Seimu Yoshizaki’s Kingyo Used Books. Released by VIZ under their SigIKKI line, and also part of their Signature line as well, I really enjoyed this series and wish more people read it. Ostensibly about the goings on in a used manga shop, it’s more about the people who come and go and also gives a crash course in famous and obscure manga.

Like a Bird of Paradise! Rio: Rainbow Gate roundtable

Why, oh why would I do this to myself? Why then would I subject others for the same kind of torture? This week I have Alain from the Reverse Thieves and Doctor from the SSAA Podcast talk with me and crucify you with Rio: Rainbow Gate!. It’s been a while since we said we’d cover this on the show. But here we are. Bottom line: Watch this show. Drunk. With friends if possible. Wait, now you don’t need to listen to the show! Ahh! Or…do you?

The Rio main page on Tecmo’s site. And the youtube video we talked about on the show:

Well, that’s about it. Thanks for listening. And we got through the whole thing without referencing the DOA games!…Right?

Oh, c’mon! You didn’t think I could resist, did you?

Help us out!

We’ve not recorded a new episode yet as I’m looking for a bit of a hand here, folks. You see, my co-host will not go actively looking for a title to review. I’m ready to go with mine but he’s dragging his heels. So I’m asking for your help in an online vote!

So here are the ground rules:

  • No hentai.
  • Nothing overly moe.
  • 52+ series are out

He’s got far-reaching tastes so don’t be put off by “Well, maybe he won’t like what I suggest, so I won’t vote.” So now is the time to introduce him to a great new series or one-shot! Or punish him with a terrible show. It’s up to you! Want to vote? Just head over to http://twtpoll.com/ros960 and cast your vote using your twitter account. The vote closes at the end of May but I know my listeners will help me out before then.

Carl Macek will be denied!!!

This week myself and Aaron from the Weekly Anime Review take a look at Super Dimension Century Orguss, a classic series from the 1980′s. You know “the before time”. Anywho, a hiccup has meant that the two volumes I own and the one volume Aaron owns, are the only ones we can have at the moment. Imaginasian and TMS are working to start printing more DVD’s soon but it’s not looking good folks.

This show is the twin to my appearance on the WARP anime podcast hosted by Aaron. Check out it here. Aaron released his show AGES ago before he even went on holiday! Oh, well.
