The Good, The Bad, and The Anime Movies

Thu, 13 Jun 2019 04:00:00 GMT

It’s no secret that we here at Wicked Anime love us some movies, but that certainly doesn’t mean we like all of them. Movies based off of anime series, "Anime Movies" let's call 'em. are a hit and miss craft. Mainly, there are typically problems that have to do with short throwaway plots, uninteresting bad guys, or just 90+ minutes of fan service. In this episode, we're highlight the best of the bunch - all across the spectrum.

Episode 107 :: It’s Weird, But it’s GOOD!

Mon, 13 Feb 2017 15:49:14 GMT

We've noticed a common factor in our reviews of recent series: we're saying "it's cute" a lot. And sure, there's been a lot of cute anime over the years, but has something changed? Over the last two decades has anime has evolved into something different? It's not necessarily a bad thing (or is it for some?), but we've seen our shows go through these noticeable design changes that alter the way that we look at the medium of anime as a whole. Honestly, we're just glad that the same amount of tentacles are still around . . .Join Jonathan, Andrew, and Evan as they talk about what’s happening in anime and the evolution of the character design!

Mon, 07 Nov 2016 03:33:58 GMT

Wicked Anime brings you awesome animated commentary every other week... but this time, we're bringing you outrageous, improvised anime adventure!For our 100th episode we're doing something drastically different. We're celebrating our podcasting centennial by returning to anime tabletop. Once before the Wicked Anime hosts transformed into cliche anime personas for a massive RPG adventure in B.E.S.M. (Big Eyes, Small Mouth), but this time we're switching genres and going kawaii; this time we're playing Maid.Maid is a tabletop RPG where players become housemaids in a mansion - each of them simply looking to serve and appease the master as best they can. Andrew is the GM and Master of the house, Jojoshiro Kujo-sama (aka Jojo-sama), who lords over a motley crew of servants: albino, street-wise stoic; Jyu (Glitch), amicable amateur scientist; Amuso (Dillon), absent-minded guardian angel; Kaya (Jonathan), and valley girl sociopath; Hanbaga, aka Hanna (Nerdy Show's Cap). The girls vie for superiority against each other and a host of supporting characters played by Lerok, as they compete to see who will oversee Kujo Mansion.Join us as we roleplay our hearts out for the master, yo!

Episode 0 :: Pilot Special

Mon, 07 Jan 2013 00:00:00 GMT

A new year means new beginnings, and what would be more fitting than where we began, huh? That’s right- this is our pilot episode, the episode we gave to Nerdy Show to ask them if we could have our own talky time. . . Still trying to figure out why they gave us the green light.This episode is RAW. Turn down your volume! Look forward to no audio tests or leveling, outdated news stories, and double compressed files. In this episode we talk about news stories we didn’t research, Dillon has some jokes that are in bad taste, and why the hell Glitch can’t get enough of females with broad shoulders. All that plus a new intro by Wicked Anime’s co-creators, Jonathan and Andrew.
