Episode 170: We are in the middle of Spooptober which means were gonna pull out (LOL) the erotic horror anime Legend of the Overfiend and review it.

Honestly there is something to be said about the unsettling nature of these Adult stories though. Think of it as a Violentsploitation B movie or...

From the remnants of Studio Ghibli comes Studio Ponoc and their first feature film, "Mary and the Witch's Flower".  We all watched the film and give our reviews on the film and delve just a bit if it was a good launch for the new studio that was born from previous Ghibli employees.

HOST SWAP! We gotta make sure Dannie gets to swap a show with everyone. Last time she swapped Princess Jellyfish with Nick's Baccano! This time around she traded Paradise Kiss for Kwoka's Cromartie High School! Honestly both of these shows were pretty cool and we recommend that you give them a watch!
