Elliot Page from UK Anime Network and Philip from Eeeper’s Choice join Brian to discuss a show that is both an actual sequel to Gunbuster and a sort of sequel to FLCL. That show is the 2004-2006 OAV series from Gainax, Aim For The Top 2 aka Diebuster aka Gunbuster 2.
Anthony forgot when we were going to be recording this episode, and so is not on it.
That means no Weekly Retro Recap this week, but Elliot and Philip do play a game of SAME UNIVERSE, DIFFERENT STORY.

Aaron Long joins us to talk Crusher Joe, Kick Heart and to play a game.
This week’s Weekly Retro Recap is Astro Boy episode 2, and someone forgot to watch it.
All this and the all the regular features on another fun packed episode of Dynamite In The Brain.
NB: I believe we tease how much the AnimEigo DVD costs nowadays second hand, but never get around to mentioning the price. At the time of recording the cheapest you could find it on Amazon UK was £200!
