Listen to Season 4: Episode 19 – Less Weird Than Twins

Well, the best laid plans of wolves and men often go awry. Or was that mice? Or owls? Who really knows? People don’t read books these days. So due to massive flooding, Andy had to bail on this week’s recording, so enjoy a Bill and Josh episode. They also had to abandon the studio due to water, so the audio isn’t as crisp as usual–sorry about that! Bill and Josh (and Andy due to some post-production magic!) talk about the finale of Wolf’s Rain. Things come to a…conclusion…sorta. Thank God for the OVA. Enjoy our deep dive into Episode 26 of Wolf’s Rain, “Moonlight Crucible.”

Holy new episode, Batman! We’re back, everyone! Well, two of us are. Andy and Bill have gotten into the studio to record a brand new review of Episode 25 of Wolf’s Rain, “False Memories.” When we last left our pack, they were all pretty well buggered, and things go from bad to even worse this time around. Want to know how bad things are or why we hate Hige so much? Listen to the latest episode of Tooning Japanese to find out!

Tuesday Top Five: Most Interesting Anime Villains

Original Publication Date: 8/22/2016

By:  Andrew Lister

Welcome to the next installment of a new articles series, Tuesday Top Five! From time to time I’ll be coming up with a Top 5 spanning a number of geeky topics. This week, we tackle the world of professional wrestling.

What’s a good story without an even better antagonist? To me, a good villain needs to not only be a difficult challenge for the hero, but they must also be motivated by more than simply wanting to do evil. Sauron was pretty badass, but we never see much depth in his character beyond his wanting to rule over all of Middle Earth. Scary and powerful?  Yes. An interesting, developed character? No.

The same criteria goes for anime as well. There have been so many great shows and memorable villains that making a list of the best baddies may seem like a tough task. That being said, I’ve assembled my Top 5 Most Interesting Anime Villains, and I want to hear what you think by leaving a comment below.  We may even read your comments on a future episode of Tooning Japanese!

Please keep in mind that there may be spoilers below. You have been warned!
