  • In its obsessive search for the secret of immortality, the shogunate government sends a party of convicted criminals to a mysterious and deadly island to claim the Elixir of Life. To ensure that they complete their mission, these rogues are each accompanied by an elite executioner, ordered to eliminate them the moment they step out of line. Among these assorted killers are the near-immortal assassin Gabimaru, and the swordswoman Sagiri of the Asaemon. They will need to navigate an island filled with lethal dangers and alien beings, while also keeping an wary eye on their fellow convicts and executioners.

  • End of Cour Spring 2023

    It was a season of plenty here in Spring 2023! We all watched way too much stuff and you're gonna hear about it, so sit back and get comfortable!

    Note: This cast is 1:40:00. We didn't pick a stop point to split this into two casts, so just a warning that this one is REALLY long compared to what we have done previously.

    In addition to all the great things Brendan said about My Clueless First Friend he wanted to add:"Also I forgot to explicitly bring up Self-Loathing as part of Kasahara's character arc in Clueless First Friend. Theming!"

    Are you ready for ALL the slow burn romance?!?!? Are you ready for, THE GOLF MOON EMPRESS?!?!?!

    The Shows covered in this Podcast are: Skip and Loafer, Ancient Magus Bridge S2, The Dangers in My Heart, Kono Suba Bakuen, Insomniacs After School, Otaku Elf, Ao no Orchestra, My Love Story with Yamada-kun, Heavenly Delusion, Kubo won't let me be invisible, My Clueless First Friend, Demon Slayer S3, A Galaxy Next Door, Birdie Wing S2

  • Long ago, fire became even deadlier to humans than before. Anyone too close to natural flame would combust, causing a global disaster that drove humanity into darkness. Many years into the rebuilding of the world, two young people become embroiled in the struggles between powerful factions and must brave monsters, divine magic, and a wildly fluctuating quality of animation to survive a confoundingly vague plot. Take a listen to our thoughts as we puzzle out what happened in this weird series.

  • The Con Artists Podcast: Rolling Review 25

    This story is about young kids at a mecha high school who duel each for company rights and the ability to tell each other secrets. It's also about forming your own company because all the cools kids do that these days. It's also about class struggles, and learning mech skills. It's also about a young woman who can pilot a human killing mech but due to her fancy-ass powers can withstand the darn thing for mysterious reasons. It's also about revenge. It's even about not getting to eat the last lunchbox and crying about it in the bathroom. No seriously...it's about all of these things.

  • The Con Artists Podcast: Rolling Review 23

    In a world where surveillance is threatening the 24th District, three heroes will rise up to take on trolley dilemmas and save their friend/sister/girlfriend who died in a fire years prior. There'll be some girl who desperately wanted a complicated romance plot, a dude in a cowboy hat who now licks spray paint cans, and a scene where one of our heroes ziplines into a drug addict's window and smashes him in the face with a skateboard. The only thing more powerful than having large pecks for bread-making, is going full vigilante with a sacred donut handoff.

    Everything about this show is excellent and after listening to us you definitely won't wonder if Cloverworks is being worked into an early grave.

  • End of Cour Fall 2021 Su seems to have struck out with most of her choices but Scott and Dan fared much better. Brendan was jettisoned into space but he's thankfully not a vampire (yet).

We are sad to see this show go, but all of us have enjoyed our time immensely with these wonderful characters. Please consider donating to the imaginary: Save a Soma fund so all these people can get therapy someday. I love this show so much that I'm not even going to put a snarky write up.

    It's Part III of our Spring 2021 discussion. Su and Scott watched way too many shows (are you surprised?!). If we were more hip, we'd call this a flex, but instead we are just old anime nerds who are way too tired for this sh*t. Spring 2021, seriously...why were you so good?!The best show ever (according to Scott) appears in this podcast alongside the biggest disappointment. Can you wager a guess as to what the latter is? Come and listen to us continue to yack about anime!
