Welcome to Tooning Japanese, a podcast where three dudes in their 30s talk about Japanese anime!

Listen to Summer Viewing Program: The Newsroom

If you thought last week was a departure, prepare to move completely away from the realm of animation into the drama and reality of The Newsroom. Yes, Andy’s pick for the final Summer Viewing Program is the HBO program that came from the political mind of Aaron Sorkin. Even if you’re not a fan of anime, give it a listen!

Watch The Newsroom on HBO Go!

We’re on to Bill’s pick for our Summer Viewing Program series!  This time we sneak away from anime all together to cover a western cartoon, Over the Garden Wall.  Both Andy and Josh loved it, and the gang end up staying mostly on task and not as vulgar for once!

Thank you for being patient as we took last week off! We needed the extra time to get caught up, and now we have the first of three Summer Viewing Programming episodes! This week it’s Josh’s pick, and we’re watching Team Four Star’s Dragon Ball Z Abridged! Andy and Bill had some problems with it, but overall everyone seemed to enjoy it. Join us for our discussion of fan dubbing and our thoughts on the show. Also, can you guess how many times we hear the Josh Owned Counter?

Welcome to Tooning Japanese, a podcast where three dudes in their 30s talk about Japanese anime!

Listen to Movie Review: Trigun: Badlands Rumble

Our apologies for this being a day late. Andy’s been editing these last several episodes himself, and a lot has come up around his home life and work. We’re finally bringing you our review of the Trigun movie! Yes, this week we talk all about Badlands Rumble, which is an interesting film experience that we can sum up as a really long episode of Trigun! Hope you enjoy! We may take next week off so Andy can recover from Gen Con and getting accustomed to being back at work. For now, enjoy our newest episode!

Welcome to Tooning Japanese, a podcast where three dudes in their 30s talk about Japanese anime!

Listen to Bonus Season 1: Episode 8 – Pokemon S&M

Due to some issues with editing and time constraints, our review of Trigun: Badlands Rumble is being pushed back a week. In its place we have another Pokemon Generations episode! This time around Andy and Ray talk about two episodes from the Pokemon Black and White games, and they’re both actually really good! Go watch them and give us a listen! We also drop more Pokemon codes and realize an unfortunate shortening of the newest Pokemon game titles.

Listen to Season 2: Episode 26 – Murder Goats

It feels like we just started our reviews of Trigun, but we’ve reached the bittersweet ending, “Under the Sky So Blue.”  This week we tried something a bit different and conducted our review while watching the episode.  You can (sort of) follow along as we review it, and due to the nature of this experiment, there’s far less editing involved this time around.  Let us know what you think of the format, and we’ll be back next week with our final thoughts on Trigun!
