No one’s punched their dad yet, but there’s plenty of episodes left for that.

On this week’s episode, we lament JoJo’s interminable pacing, finally learn when Shirou and Rin get it on, have a lot of fun saying “Dog Hummer,” and reveal that I have–in fact–been watching Hunter x Hunter again. I even talk about how crazy it is when that one muscle guy bites the leech dude’s skull off. Now stop bugging me about it.

Bakacast #247 – You’ve Seen This Crap Before

Yep, even the monster woman. Pretty sure Wicked City did that.

So Luke finally got around to watching Isuca, which he colorfully described as a “gas chamber.” Which I guess means he liked it? Yeah, that’s how metaphors work. By the end of his segment, I felt a little bad about what I did, so I gave him a much easier assignment for next time: Triage X. I’m a good friend.

In other news, we find that Nanoha Vivid is much better at being shounen than it is at being slice-of-life, Blood Blockade vampires are way better than most vampires these days, and Yamada-kun might secretly be the best rom-com this season.

Coming soon to a Hell-Wal-Mart near you.

On this episode of Bakacast, Blood Blockade manages to make chess really interesting, Yamada-kun surprises us with how decent it is, Ninja Slayer surprises us with how bad it is, and Sidonia goes full moe. Also, my dogs bark a lot. I’m sorry about that. Dogs have no respect for audio quality.

Bakacast #245 – Moms With Benefits

They’re just friends. Who live together. And raise a child together. And take showers together.

On this episode of Bakacast, we pick up a few more Spring shows and drop a couple that just weren’t earning the time we were giving them. Despite our initial concerns, this season might actually have just as many shows worth watching as the Winter, even if we drop a few shows that are on the borderline. So a pretty good deal for anime fans. Not so great for my work-life balance.
