AGP#017 – Tokyo Godfathers

Hosts: Evan “Vampt Vo” Minto, Mitchell
Dyer
Topic: Tokyo Godfathers (2003)


This time we’re talking about a movie from Evan’s favorite anime
director: Satoshi Kon (Paprika, Paranoia
Agent). The review portion is sort of short compared to
the What’cha Been Doing? segment, which is probably because Evan
had to rush to go see Star Trek at the end of the episode.


Our plans for next episode are not yet solidified, but the goal
is to record a whole slew of new episodes at Otakon later this
month, and to record a Cowboy Bebop episode
featuring Evan, Mitchy, and Karl once the former actually
finishes watching the show. Till next time, so long, dear
listeners!


Show notes and links can be found after the break.
