AGP#049 – The REAL Mako (AnimeNEXT 2015)

I flew back East for AnimeNEXT this year, and I figured I’d
mark the occasion with a now-rare treat: an actual podcast
episode. Our guests include a bunch of super-cool folks you may
recognize: Ani-Gamers’ own Ink, Anime News
Network writer and prolific con panelist Mike Toole,
longtime translator Neil Nadelman, and returning podcast guest
Patrick from The Cockpit. Topics include: cool ’80s
anime Future Police Urashiman, Studio TRIGGER guests,
English-speaking Japanese animator Aya Suzuki, the inherent
superiority of East Coast anime con panels, and “ancient” anime
conventions from before the year 2010. We tried recording this
using two different portable recorders, and I think it came out
pretty listenable. Show notes and links after the break.
