| 8/24/23 | Episode 62: Watanabe, If You're Listening | We finally close the book on Cowboy Bebop by watching the movie. Against all odds, we mostly managed to had an ok time with it, despite the fact that somehow all of the major problems we had with the TV series manage to show up in big and small ways throughout the movie. This movie truly is a microcosm of all of our thoughts about Cowboy Bebop as a whole.

| 7/26/23 | Episode 61: Koyomi Araragi, Autist Supreme | Time for us to close the book on Bakemonogatari. It's been a rough ride, but fortunately we find at least a few things to like about Tsubasa Cat, the final arc of the series, though maybe it didn't need to be a full five episodes long. Join us for our final thoughts on the anime, many more thoughts about how the anime compares to the books, and our evolving opinions of Shaft as an anime studio.

| 7/12/23 | Episode 60: Mick Garris Come on the Show! | Time for two more arcs of Bakemonogatari, which means two new girls. We're still not having a great time with this show, but one of us has started to do their homework and read the novels which leaves us wondering: why is this such a bad adaptation? Anyway, Mick Garris if you're reading this please come on the show. Anime Discussed: Bakemonogatari 6-10 Next time: Bakemonogatari 11-15 Send us your questions!

| 6/28/23 | Episode 59: Issin Like Pissin' | New show! We're finally diving into the world of Nisio Issin, and also diving back into the world of Shaft Animation. The results are... mixed? Is this show kinda problematic? Yeah, but mostly it's just kinda boring. Regardless, we have a pretty good time digging into whatever's going on with this show.

| 6/14/23 | Episode 58: Refusing to Be Magical Girl God | We finish Space Dandy and put to rest the question that started all of this: is Space Dandy the anime that people should be recommending for first time watchers over Cowboy Bebop? The answer is yes, yes, absolutely yes. Anime Discussed: Space Dandy 21-16 Next time: Bakemonogatari 1-5 Send us your questions!

| 5/31/23 | Episode 57: Mussie | We love to do two things on this podcast. Trash talk Cowboy Bebop and gush over Masaaki Yuasa. Well, we already did enough trash talking about Bebop when we started Space Dandy, so now it's finally time for us to gush about the one episode Yuasa did for this show. We also talk about 6 other episodes, I guess. Anime Discussed: Space Dandy 14-20 Next time: Space Dandy 21-26 Send us your questions!

| 5/10/23 | Episode 56: Big the Meow | We continue to have a dandy time as we finish up the first season of Space Dandy. Save for one notably bad episode, this show is nothing but back to back bangers. We've got time loops, wacky races, plant planets, and more!

| 4/26/23 | Episode 55: Excuse You, It's a Breastaurant | Ever since we started this podcast we've been threatening to watch Space Dandy (mostly because our collective memory of it said it's far superior to Cowboy Bebop). Well it's finally time to make good on the promise, and you know I hate to say it, but we were so right. Join us as we have a great time talking about everything from boobies to zombies to space ramen to more boobies. Anime Discussed: Space Dandy 1-6 Next time: Space Dandy 7-13 Send us your questions!

| 4/12/23 | Episode 54: I'm the Booooooo-geyman | It's time for us to say goodbye to Paradigm City, but not before we talk through the wild ending, bad French accents, clown cyborgs (who are also French), and more! Make sure to stick around to the end where we get to test our Big O knowledge to prove whether or not we're real fans.

| 3/29/23 | Episode 53: Suck-off Crucifix | It's time for season 2! Unfortunately between seasons 1 and 2 the early 2000s happens and so we now enter the digipaint zone. Fortunately this show is still really well made so even the specter of digipaint isn't enough to ruin the good time we've been having with Big O. We also get to meet a new tumblr sexy (clown) man, so honestly we're having a great time all around. Anime Discussed: The Big O 14-19 Next time: The Big O 20-26 Send us your questions!

| 3/15/23 | Episode 52: The Good Kind of Class Traitor | We're back with more Big O! We finished season 1 and are still having a great time. We bask in the neo-noir vibes, herald the return of some of our favorite sickos, and pog out at the mecha action. Oh, and it wouldn't be right if we didn't also take the time to compare some of the best episodes of this show with some of the worst episodes of Bebop.

| 3/1/23 | Episode 51: Twink Oogie Boogie | We're kicking off the third year of Under the Kotatsu with a stone-cold banger: The Big O! We had a great time talking about this show's excellent pacing, it's character development and wordlbuilding, and how it's basically just the Batman of mecha anime. Showtime!
