Things get a little ranty this week as we try to work out if long-running shounen are still relevant, or if the desire to produce the next One Piece/Dragon Ball/Bleach/Naruto is nothing more than a false hope. Our featured anime are Little Busters! Refrain, Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Dark Side of Dimensions and Boruto: Naruto The Movie. #LittleBusters #Refrain #YuGiOh #DarkSideOfDimensions #Boruto #Naruto #Animation #Anime #Cartoons #KeyFrame #News #Podcasts #Reviews #TheGeekShow

This week we ditch the boring old news and trailers and try to have an actual conversation about animation. It’s such a shocking thing for a podcast about animation to do, but we stick with us as we try not to put our feet firmly into ... it. Our featured anime are Wish Upon The Pleiades, Ergo Proxy and Digimon Adventure tri. Chapter 1: Reunion. #WishUponThePlieades #HoukagoNoPleiades #ErgoProxy #DigimonAdventureTri #Reunion #Saikai #Animation #Anime #Cartoons #Keyframe #News #Podcasts #Reviews #TheGeekShow

This week we ditch the old ways and embrace a new mindset. The news isn’t gone, but we got bored reporting on people doing their jobs so we decided put it all to one side and focus on the important things, so join us on our journey of animation enlightenment. Our featured anime are Shimoneta: A Boring World Where the Concept of Dirty Jokes Doesn't Exist (Shimoneta to Iu Gainen ga Sonzai Shinai Taikutsu na Sekai), and One Piece collection 16. #Shimoneta #OnePiece #Animation #Anime #Cartoons #Keyframe #News #Podcasts #Reviews #TheGeekShow

So Netflix want to reboot the ‘90s – or at least the animated bits anyway. Meanwhile, Warner Bros. create a crossover that nobody wanted to see and Disney are still waiting for a Best Picture Oscar.

It's a shorter show than normal this week, partly because it's awards season. Normal service will resume shortly (I've always wanted to say that).

Aside from another bunch of trailers we complain about public polls to find the “best” anime. Our featured anime are Punch Line and Transformers: The Movie (the original, not the Michael Bay one - and before you ask, yes, it is an anime). . #Animation #Anime #Cartoons #Keyframe #MAPPA #NelsonShin #News #Podcasts #PunchLine #Reviews #ShojiKawamori #ShouzoTajima #TheGeekShow #ToeiAnimation #Transformers #TransformersTheMovie #YutakaUemura

Things take a turn for the strange with a mess of trailers and some anthropomorphic technology jargon.
