oceanmonsterotaku@gmail.com (Jeff & Friends) — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 16:20:02 +0000

This 2001 movie is a spectacular thrill ride that will make you laugh and will make you cry, which meets Master Chief’s standard for a great movie.

Also, happy Valentine’s day. We’re spending ours alone.

Gundam AGE Season 1

oceanmonsterotaku@gmail.com (Jeff & Friends) — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 23:47:06 +0000

In today’s episode of AG, we discuss a show that basically everyone on the Internet hates because they are awful. We think it’s great.

Also, this is important.

Sorry we didn’t review Shin Chan when we said we would. Some crazy stuff went down with the Shin Chan recording so it didn’t work out. We’ll get to Shin Chan eventually.

It’s a Redline Day – MAZZAFAKKA!

We are like, a year late to the bandwagon or something, but in today’s episode we discuss the 2009 or was it 2010? Nobody really knows. But we discuss Redline, which is basically Jesus for anime.

Alone AGain Christmas: Gundam 0080

Instead of spending our time with our families in celebrating this Anglo-American/Pagan tradition, we have decided to record a show at what is 4 AM for Andy.

That aside, we discuss what is probably the best Gundam show ever made.

2011 in Review

oceanmonsterotaku@gmail.com (Jeff & Friends) — Sun, 11 Dec 2011 05:49:08 +0000

This episode of the Anime Graruru is a little bit crazy, not only in that it is an hour long, but also in that it is an attempt to discuss the Anime of 2011. I suppose it did get a little weird throughout this recording, since it is a little bit more raw than AG normally is, but whatever.

Aside from that, Anime Graruru, or rather, Area Graruru, is five years old now. So wooot.

We talked about so much in this episode, and I suppose that there could be a lot in terms of show notes, but we’re not that into show notes…. but here is the season’s line up pics.

Winter 2010-11
Spring 2011
Summer 2011
Fall 2011
Winter 2011-12

In essentially just going through each list randomly, we both reaffirm our belief in the future, but also gain a sense of melancholic frustration in the present.

Music:
Intro – “Bowl Man” by some old Salarymen (IKZO)
Outro – “Natsu Yuzora” by some old Japanese guy who eats rice, and stays longingly at fields of wheat (Kosuke Atari)

This episode is basically the two of us being fanboys for a whole hour.

Char’s Counterattack

oceanmonsterotaku@gmail.com (Jeff & Friends) — Tue, 22 Nov 2011 01:22:37 +0000

Char’s Counterattack, which was meant to be the end to the Universal Century, ended up being an 80s movie with poor writing.

We talk about Charles Aznavour

No wait… we don’t. We talk about Char Aznable

You're not fooling anybody Quattro

Intro: Beyond the Time
Outro: Finale – Shoot the Piano Player

GunPla Builders Beginning G with special guest Gerald

oceanmonsterotaku@gmail.com (Jeff & Friends) — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 20:03:33 +0000

In this fine episode, we have a special guest, Gerald Rathkolb from the Anime World Order Podcast on to help us review an actually decent Gundam show… that is essentially a 40 minute commercial, GunPla Builders.

My mic is a bit scratchy throughout this episode, but everyone else should sound just fine.

This show also gave us the ~~greatest~~ GunPla kid of all time, Beargguy.

Intro: “Reaching for the Cookie Jar” by Jon CJG
Outro: “Beginning” by Daisuke Inoue

0083 Seriously Needed Some More Carroterization

oceanmonsterotaku@gmail.com (Jeff & Friends) — Mon, 07 Nov 2011 02:09:25 +0000

To kick off our Gundam month, we review the greatest OVA of all time, Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory.

The best thing about this show is the GMs. GMs were amazing to begin with, but this show just made them better.

Music Selection:
Main Theme – Jon CJG – intro
Magic – Jacob Wheeler – outro
