Let’s Go! Spring Anime Preview 2016

With Anthony still missing, presumed stuck on a hard shoulder, and Anime Now’s Bradley Meek putting anime in the past, what is Brian going to do about a Spring anime preview episode? Assemble the surviving members of the Let’s Go Gang of course!

Welcome to the first Let’s Go! Season Preview podcast. Exactly the same as the DITB Preview podcasts, but with more Dwayne & Niall!

We run down what we watched over the Winter season, unsurprisingly it’s mainly what we’ve been podcasting about each week! Then we get ready for the return of the show that formed the Let’s Go Gang, JOJO’S BIZARRE ADVENTURE!

We also look a whole load of other titles that excite us as we get ready for the first season in living memory where there may be too many shows that we actually want to watch.

Let’s Go! Episode 19 – Never Trust Friezas

Hey, hey, the gangs all here, as we discuss a whole lot of betrayal. Aliens, Teachers and Gypsum Busts all show their true colours this week. Plus: blocks of stone, blocks of dry ice, blockheaded martial arts, an event filled trip to the amusement park, and the original steampunk wanker – Leonardo Da Vinci!

This week:

  • One Piece Chapter 818
  • Lupin #17 & #18
  • Ojisan & Marshmallow #10
  • Sekko Boys #10
  • Mr Osomatsu #22
  • Lovely Muco #22
  • Erased #10
  • Dragon Ball Super #34

Let’s Go! Episode 18 – Lovely Running

Still no Anthony, but we stayed up late so we’d have a Niall! This week: nostalgic flashbacks in Lovely Muco, terrible teachers in Lupin III, possibly an even worse teacher in ERASED, definitely the worst Matsuno in Osomatsu, and St. Giorgio takes one for the team.

This week’s anime:

  • Lupin #15 & #16
  • Ojisan & Marshmallow #9
  • Sekko Boys #9
  • Mr Osomatsu #21
  • Lovely Muco #21
  • Erased #9
  • Dragon Ball Super #33

 

Episode 209 – Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection ‘F’

Elliot Page & Greg Driver join us today to discuss the 2015 hit anime film, Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection F. Frieza is back! Jaco arrives in animated form! A sorta koala looking guy called Sorbet also appears!

NB: There was a long-winded, confusing game with wrong answers edited from this podcast, which is what the timeline mentions at the end of the podcast are referring to. Trust me, you are better off without it.

Let’s Go! Episode 17 – Grand Ponta

This week it’s not so much the Let’s Go Gang as the Let’s Go Duo, as it’s just Brian & Dwayne in the studio. That doesn’t stop us running down all the usual shows as we take in all the rugged beards, Renaissance art, sweaty dogs, girl groups and UFO catcher dolls that this week’s anime had to offer.

Remember, MUMS KNOW BEST.

Episode 208 – Best Anime of 2001

Once again Niall Flanagan of Secret of the Sailor Madness and Let’s Go sits in as co-host as Anthony is still missing. Even though he was on the last Let’s Go. The power of pre-recording!

What’s more, Bradley Meek of Anime Now! joins us again, as we run down what we think are the best examples of anime from 2001. And there’s a lot. 2001 was a pretty good year, and we’ve got a lot of episodes out of it over the years.

Let’s Go! Episode 16 – Full Nude Helmet

This week questions are answered, marshmallows toasted and dreams decoded. That’s right, it’s another episode of the weekly anime podcast about weekly anime – Let’s Go!

And that episode title is definitely not going to get us any entirely unintended search traffic.

This week we watched:

  • Lupin #11 & #12
  • Ojisan & Marshmallow #7
  • Sekko Boys #7
  • Mr Osomatsu #19
  • Lovely Muco #19
  • Erased #7
  • Dragon Ball Super #31
