OSMcast! & The Carbuncle Chronicle

Well, it's June so it's about time to wrap up our interview series from MTAC Score! But perhaps we have saved the best for last?* We had the eminent pleasure to get to chat with Kari Wahlgren. For us, the bunch of Final Fantasy sickos that we all are, she's best known as the voice of Ashe in Final Fantasy XII. However, some may better know her from her role as Saber in Fate/zero, Fate/stay night:...

We are back with an extra packed MTAC Score OSMinterview! This time we have not one, but TWO amazing VAs for your listening enjoyment. Bryce Papenbrook AND Cherami Leigh! Bryce Papenbrook is best known for his portrayals of Kirito in Sword Art Online, Eren Jaeger in Attack on Titan, Inosuke Hashibira in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, Rin Okumura in Blue Exorcist, and as Cat Noir in Miraculous: Ta...

Once again, we are back with yet another OSMinterview from MTAC Score! This time, we are chatting with voice actor and martial artist Adam McArthur. Two of the roles he is probably best known for are Marco Diaz in Star vs. the Forces of Evil and Yuji Itadori in Jujutsu Kaisen. They talk about how important mentors can be, how things don't have to be a competition, and more! OSMnotes We wanted to t...

Our MTAC interviews continue! This time we're catching back up with the excellent Caitlin Glass, who not only is an actor and voice actor... But is also a Senior Voice Director over at Crunchyroll! Have you watched the excellent Ranking of Kings? Did you catch that dub? If not, you should! Of course, you may recognize her voice as the one behind such roles as Winry Rockbell (Fullmetal Alchemist),...

So last month, MTAC finally got the chance to rise from the depths and appear once again as a majestic ... well, convention! Ok look as well all know it's been a minute since a whole con thing as happened and it's hard getting back on this whole forced metaphor of a bicycle thing. At any rate, a fantastic time. While we were there, we had the wonderful opportunity to talk to some amazing folks.  T...

14 years ago, a podcast started. Perhaps you have heard of it? It's called the OSMcast, your podcast for everything awesome. 14 years later, against all odds, they posted a new episode coincidently on the same day. And that episode? This one. The one you are listening to right now! And this time we are talking about Centaurworld, a cool cartoon for cool people that like cool things created by Mega...

It's Christmas in Febua- We mean March! Yes, that's right. You heard us. Or rather, this is our 2021 AGC Secret Santa episode. Only three months late. For us, this is pretty timely. So, what are we talking about this time? Why it's the anime Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit! It was animated by Production I.G directed by Kenji Kamiyama (back when he did awesome stuff), based on a novel series by Na...

Well, here it is. Three interviews, and now four episodes later, we are now at the current conclusion of the OSM of Evangelion Project. (We say current, because you never know when John will stealth drop yet another interview out of the blue!) We have talked about the original show, the End of Eva movies, the previous Rebuilds, and now this. The final Rebuild of Evangelion film, Evangelion: 3.0+1....

Happy December! Hope everyone is doing well. Maybe catching up on some Netflix, perchance? Possibly enjoying the latest installment of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Stone Ocean. If so, we got some great news for you. We have a very recently done OSMinterview, where John gets to talk with one amazing Kira Buckland ! Who is, coincidentally, the voice of Jolyne Cujoh. But has also portrayed voices of man...

Hot & Ready with yet another toasty extra crispy episode, all about the third movie in the Rebuild of Evangelion series! Now that's dedication.  OSMnotes At this point you know the drill. Patreon . Discord . Time Cues . That's the stu...

Would you believe it, another Evangelion podcast!? It's true! Originally, the plan was to do a podcast on just 1.11 and 2.22 together. But we soon discovered by the time we were done talking about 1.11... We had already spent a whole podcast on it! We just could not advance to talk about Eva 2.22. Who would have thought? Anyhow, enjoy yet another OSMcast ! , where we talk about the second movie in...

September 1, 2007. The Earth changed. It experienced a cataclysmic event that is known known as Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone. Then later it hit DVD and Blu-Ray and was was retitled as Evangelion: 1.01 then later still, 1.11. At the time of this podcast, it is now still 1.11, but is now on Amazon Prime Video. It still believed to (not) be alone. As it has the other three movies also on Amazo...

The OSM of Evangelion just keeps on rolling on as this whole interview train continues! Before we pull into the station and start releasing the episodes on the Rebuild movies, John once again surprises us in just the best ways. This time, he sits down at the virtual table with the returning champion and all around treasure, Amanda Winn Lee . You may know her best as the voice of Rei Ayanami in bot...

So there you are, chillin' on the roof of the school, as you do. Just going about your day, getting the latest instalment of the The OSM of Evangelion  series prepped for release. Then, out of the blue, comes in something just incredibly unexpected yet entirely welcomed. Just right on top of you. That was John yesterday with a fresh OSMinterview in virtual hand. He got the chance to talk with just...

As the OSM of Evangelion continues, John sits down at virtual interview table with the voice of the ADV/Rebuild movies' Shinji Ikari,  Spike Spencer ! But unlike Shinji, Spike has no issues getting into the robot. In fact, he tends to get into lots of them! He's also a public speaker, voice coach, life coach, podcaster, real estate investor, just all sort of robots to get into. But what you should...

September 13, 2000. The Earth changed. It experienced a cataclysmic event that is known known as The Second Impact. Or it did in another world, another time. In this time, it's August 24th, 2021. In this world, all of Evangelion can now be streamed in the United States.  With Netflix having the Evangelion TV show along with The End of Evangelion movies, and Amazon Prime Video having the Rebuild mo...

Every once in a while, a show will come out of nowhere. And just, I dunno, slap you upside the head with it's goodness? But that slap, it's not always so fast. Sometimes, you get that slow slap. But when that slap hurts, it hurts so good . That's ODDTAXI. Or Odd Taxi, which is an easier way to read it. It's an anime that's a gritty noir about a taxi driver and the people he takes places. The drive...

So it's 2021 and supposedly things are returning to some semblance of, what some may call, normal. However, as it turns out, normal is still a ways away. And of course we know that because of video games! For example, E3. Usually the Electronic Entertainment Expo is a ginormous in person event with crazy press conferences, announcements,  and media and people on Twitch and YouTube playing all thes...

So as it turns out, getting a puppy and seasonal allergies is a terrible combo, we do not recommend it. But with anime cons slowly returning to us , why not take a trip back to memory lane? That's right, we're back to our second episode of our OSMquest Kawaii Caper series! This time, we wrap up Thursday night and get into some Friday shenanigans. Cosplayers! A Dealer's Room! PANELS. And more!   Ka...

Ever wonder what's next in life? Perhaps even in the next life? Sure, reincarnation is a possibly, but have you ever considered reincarnating into a JRPG? Chances are you have as the genre of isekai is now an anime ever-presence, and people are just dying all over the place to score some sweet levels! But if you ever had to pick only one series to follow, might we suggest the series That Time I Go...

Well just gosh golly gee do we have a podcast-a-rooney for you! Wait, was any of those actual words? And based on what AWO says, should we have called it a podcast-a-rooni? Either way, one of the shows that has really captured the imagination of a lot of folks in the year 2021 was been this Marvel Studios show on Disney+. It's called WandaVision, directed by Matt Shakman and written by Jac Schaeff...

So as 2021 keeps rolling and as vaccinations seem more like actual things and not just dreams, we decided to look back to the times when anime cons were still a thing. But with a twist!  For our new OSMquest mini-series we are playing Kawaii Caper by Ettin64 , as a hack of Grant Howitt's Honey Heist .  It is the mid 2000’s in the beforetimes when anime conventions are still a thing and not a way t...

It may not seem like it, but this is a podcast about hype and expectations. About how one can get so excited for something, then be utterly betrayed by it. But also how, upon a second viewing, one can then feel much better about the thing. But still feel betrayed! Yet, before the terrible betrayal, there is still a whole lot to enjoy about the thing. This thing is an anime CG movie called Dragon Q...

Plans are made. Then life happens! Plans are dashed. New plans are made. And while all that is happening, a whole lot of news happened! So we decided to talk about those things. Think of them like the friends we made along the way! We took those friends and bundled them up into a podcast. For you! Our friends, that are hopefully bundled up warm because it could be cold outside, and are listening....

Oh, would you look at the time! As it so happens, almost a year ago we did a podcast on an anime movie from Science Saru, directed by Masaaki Yuasa, about folks and the ocean. So what better time to talk about an anime movie from Science Saru, directed by Masaaki Yuasa, about folks and the ocean! Only this time, it's the movie Lu Over the Wall. It's about a Tokyo kid stuck in a sleepy ocean town....
