Bakacast – Girls in Suits

Jon and Karen were both too busy dealing with real life this week, so we brought Scamp–who writes one of our favorite blogs–to fill in for them. While this may seem like a daunting task, his soothing accent practically counts as one co-host all on its own.

Unfortunately, we weren’t able to prepare for Glen’s internet provider to make his life a living hell. As I mention in the intro, if some reviews seem a little rushed or disjointed, that’s because Glen’s internet kept dropping him from the call, which made  keeping a coherent discussion going kind of difficult. Thankfully, we were able to reconvene on Wednesday to have a trouble-free recording of the Baccano and listener questions segments.

As for the anime this week, it’s a very good time to be me, since Baccano, Fate/Zero and Un-Go all featured women in suits. I’m glad that anime directors these days are accounting for my very specific tastes.
