Anime Pacific Remastered: Episode 7

This originally featured quite a bit where we discussed our special appearance on the podcast, Anime Genesis. Given that all traces of Anime Genesis have been wiped off the internet, this whole segment now has no real value, as this intertextuality is of no real interest to anyone who can't hear the original audio.

We also continue discussing the (apparently in production, circa 2007) live action Metal Gear Solid once again.
Interestingly, and this is something I had completely forgotten about, we discuss the whole Otakukin subculture.
The great, and now late, Osamu Dezaki was our Anime Person of the Week. Download episode seven, here.

Anime Pacific Remastered: Episode 0

Download Episode Zero, here . Anime Pacific was a podcast that began in 2006, during the nascent era of podcasting. Unlike today's polished landscape, the podcast sphere was then almost entirely amateur-driven. How times have changed. For the next eight years, Anime Pacific enjoyed a dedicated following; I like to call it the first "mid-tier" Anime podcast. This was despite what are, in retrospect, some truly exasperating audio issues. Equally frustrating were the audio filters and edits, added for comedic effect. With all that said, this podcast does serve as a time capsule of Anime fandom in the mid 2000's up until 2014.

We do not expect this to create a new generation of fans; it is merely a humble time capsule of simpler times yet made more palatable for the expectations of listeners in 2024. This episode, titled episode zero, is entirely n

Anime Pacific Remastered: Episode 12

We really had several key issues with the film, 300, which was number one at the box office when we originally recorded it. We discuss the OVA series, Freedom, and product placement. We then read e-mails in which listeners reiterate how they enjoy the Asian stuff as opposed to the "strictly anime" stuff. Alex reviews Gasaraki and CLAMP are the Anime (people) of the week.

Anime Pacific Remastered: Episode 8

I had forgotten how news-heavy the early episodes were. Rest assured, the news segement eventually disappears. We discuss the success of the live action film version of Dororo, which, we reported was going to be made into a trilogy. And that, dear listener, (sigh) let's say it together: Totally happened . We review the CG version of Appleseed. This signalled what I affectionally call the beginning of, "the shittening" of Shinji Aramaki. Go Nagai is the Anime person of the week. Alex also discussed Zero Woman: Red Handcuffs. Download episode 8, here .
