Ep 90 - Never Ski (Ultraman Taro 48-50)
Ep. 90
•
Covering: Ultraman Taro episodes 48 to 50
In this penultimate batch of Taro, while Brad's away at Frosty's, we get some absolutely ridiculous episodes and a lot of licensed music for some reason. We also have to re-iterate one of the most enduring morals from this podcast: never ski!

02:52:26||Ep. 100Covering: Ultraman Leo episodes 25 to 27After two years and a bit, six shows and a bit a bunch of other stuff in between, we have reached the big ONE HUNDRED for our podcast! And to commemorate it, we've got three truly mid episodes of Ultraman Leo. We could not have asked for a more fitting outcome.Twitter | Bsky | YouTube | Ko-fiTimestamps:Preamble Section00:00 - Intro02:40 - Royal Assassin16:35 - Chobits27:24 - Heavy Metal L-Gaim32:15 - SSSS.Gridman36:50 - Tekken 843:05 - Virtua Fighter 545:58 - Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R49:35 - Nikke - Goddess of VictoryUltraman Section1:09:33 - Ultraman Leo episode 251:32:20 - Ultraman Leo episode 261:57:50 - Ultraman Leo episode 272:18:15 - Colour timers2:19:15 - Emails2:46:46 - Outro
Turtle Tea Time 4 ~ Gamera vs Space Monster Viras (1968)
01:48:17|Covering: Gamera vs Space Monster VirasThis month, our two hosts dive into the no-money-zone as we get an incredibly brief and threadbare movie with some charming points that all in all leave it to be a surreal viewing experience. Watch as Gamera teams up with some boy scouts to fight an alien invasion made with zero money!Twitter | Bsky | YouTube | Ko-fiKatherine's accounts: Twitter | Bsky | itchi.ioTimestamps: Preamble Section00:00 - Intro01:45 - Assorted Kamen Rider (ft Kuuga, Build & Agito)34:35 - Assorted Super SentaiGamera Section45:15 - Production history59:50 - Turtle Tanka1:01:00 - Movie discussion1:35:20 - Kaiju tier list1:40:15 - OutroSources:The Gozyuger clip in question
Detour Quarry 7 - A Fistful of Yen (Golden Kamuy vol 1-6)
02:56:44|Covering: Golden Kamuy volumes 1 to 6On this beefy first episode of this new season of Detour Quarry, Red and Mel dive into the first few volumes of the manga Golden Kamuy with enthusiasm. With much to discuss between colonialism, a diversity of guys and a strange number of coincidences, the winding road ahead is looking promising. Which is good because we will be walking it for a while.Twitter | Bsky | YouTube | Ko-fiTimestamps: 00:00 - Intro11:33 - "Production" history52:40 - Golden Kamuy discussion2:43:00 - Email2:52:15 - OutroSources:Blog where Mel found the image of Yamamoto playing HijikataGolden Kamuy anime bear scene Gladio Free Europe - History of Hokkaido: Part 1, Part 2History of Japan Pod - The First Frontier: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5Unseen Japan - The Colonization of Hokkaido: How a “Foreign” Frontier Became JapanHistorian's Craft - The Conquest of the Emishi & the Dawn of the SamuraiNova (PBS) - Origins of the AinuAkarenga - Encounter between Cultures from the North and the South: Okhotsk Culture and Satsumon CultureZgusta, Richard. 2015.

02:14:15||Ep. 99Covering: Ultraman Leo episodes 22 to 24As we near the halfway point of the show, things get weird this week as we get a new character out of nowhere we know nothing about and may or may not be important, a strange Taro style episode and then also the most normal and arguably best episode of the week which still has a questionable ending.Twitter | Bsky | YouTube | Ko-fiTimestamps:Preamble Section00:00 - Intro04:35 - Strange Days (1995 film)16:32 - Ridge Racer Type 433:00 - The Counter-Revolution of 1776 - Slave Resistance and the Origins of the United States of America52:00 - Tales of Phantasia53:35 - SSSS.GridmanUltraman Section1:00:47 - Ultraman Leo episode 221:20:50 - Ultraman Leo episode 231:36:35 - Ultraman Leo episode 241:57:38 - Colour timers1:58:30 - Emails2:06:28 - OutroSources:Retrograde Amnesia - Ridge Racer Type 4 review
98. Ep 98 - Herbo: the Road to Kamuy (Ultraman Leo 19-21)
02:47:01||Ep. 98Covering: Ultraman Leo episodes 19 to 21This week, we wrap up the Horror Series with three episodes that have nothing to do with horror whatsoever, but all of them for some weird reason are about Hokkaido. I don't know what that's about but I guess it's good that we're reading Golden Kamuy in two weeks. Also enjoy the Dune talk, be mindful of book spoilers for beyond the second movie.Twitter | Bsky | YouTube | Ko-fiTimestamps:Preamble Section00:00 - Intro06:30 - Dune Messiah34:30 - Dandadan39:30 - The Stories of Girls Who Couldn't Be Magicians (vs Magilumiere)45:37 - Gundam - Requiem for Vengeance48:45 - Fatal Fury - City of the Wolves beta53:05 - Five Star Stories (1989 film)1:08:33 - Atelier YumiaUltraman Section1:20:50 - Ultraman Leo episode 191:41:44 - Ultraman Leo episode 201:58:30 - Ultraman Leo episode 212:23:55 - Colour timers2:25:10 - Emails2:40:05 - Outro
