listen to the first episode of our iron blooded orphans coverage instead! if you like it, you can find the full season 1 on patreon RIGHT NOW!!! here's the old episode description:
cw: even by Gundam standards, Iron-Blooded Orphans is pretty grim! we're going to be discussing child soldiers, war crimes, dehumanisation, fascism, colonialism, suicide, and PTSD)
it's a new era for Nectar of the Pods, as today we start our coverage of Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans by watching the first three episodes! we talk about our new draft of horribly traumatised child soldiers, draw some interesting parallels between this show and the 1979 anime, attempt to graft this divisive and financially middling show onto the side of the much more successful Witch From Mercury, talk about wow cool robot, how war is bad, and some bizarre dubbing decisions!
we also chat shit about baking, Food Wars, and shitty One Piece crossovers!
