The Anime Nostalgia Podcast - ep 76: El-Hazard The Magnificent World with Chris

Subscribers! Be sure to go to the blog to read the description
easier & check out links for this episode! Oh no, we’re talking
about one of those dreaded “isekai” shows?! Never fear, this
is the 1995 fantasy OAV El-Hazard: The Magnificent
World! Join me and Taiiku podcast’s Chris as we try to
explain why it’s a tricky series to describe, how somehow an anime
released in the 90s has one of the best dubs we’ve ever heard, and
lament the fact that it’s been out of print for a decade, because
it deserves more love. Also in this episode: Maniacal Laughter!
Tangents about the creative process! Shopping at Sam Goody! All
with very minimal spoilers! Wow!
