As the quite obscure manga artist, Toboso, Yana once said: “Something once lost will never return.”, and for a while there, we were quite inclined to believe him. Nevertheless, The Casual Anime Podcast dedicates it’s tepid return to one of Studio Ghibli’s retro style projects. Probably one of their lesser known works in the west, the adaptation of “The Tale of Princess Kaguya” got all the critics’ adoration but left little cultural impact on the western anime consumer.

If you only make terrible decisions in your first life, will that mean you'll make better choices in your next? You might think the shame and remorse of being a jobless shut-in in a culture like Japan would push you to become the best possible version of yourself, but it just goes to show that under different circumstances you can remain the same degenerate and still be successful in spite of it.

In search of improved breathing techniques our 3 intrepid travelers board a train.    Although this train is bound for nowhere there is no gambling Kenny Rodgers onboard to tell them when to hold and when to fold.

Anime Podcast Of Some Sort took a bit of a vacay. A convention vacay. Jack was at Fanime, and David was at ColossalCon. Stories! Adventure! Cosplaying! A merry old time was had by our APOSS Team at conventions across the continent! So merry, we had to call our friend Shay Taree, who was at Fanime as well.

Plus, Shay and Jack give their respective previews of SacAnime. Last year, it was D.j.m. that did a double summer convention dip, now Jack & Shay go for it.

Plus, Detective Pikachu. It's pretty darn good.
