Une émission essentiellement musicale cette semaine, avec un coup de projecteur sur la compil du label unBORDE, sortie en mars dernier au Japon, mais aussi un petit mot gentil à l'attention des chanteuses et danseuses lyonnaises d'AMAITSUKI à travers une chanson du groupe KOBUSHI FACTORY, un peu de SCANDAL à la veille de leur passage en concert en France... et une petite déambulation à travers les rues d'AKIHABARA, ou plutôt dans les souvenirs que nous avons de ce quartier tokyoïte très connu mais qui a considérablement évolué au fil du temps.

delays. With that said, episode 26 features a do-over for Richard and
Drew as they review again the Fist of the North Star movie from 1986 and then tackle the 2008-2009 OAV film Hokuto no Ken: Kenshiro-den.

Here at Akihabara Renditions,
we do our reviews a little differently - we all are subjected to the
material to be reviewed and each give our opinions on it. I think it
makes for a much more balanced review but there are still some kinks to
be worked out in the execution. While much of our review material thus
far has been OAVs and films which only take a few hours to watch...2009-09-1752 minAkihabara RenditionsEpisode 24 - Japanese Cartoons, Spirng 2009Basil from the OSMcast,

crotchety old men talk about the new-fangled cartoons from Spirng 2009
this year. This episode would have been much, much better had it been
released near-after it was recorded as we only look at the series as
the first couple of episodes were available and is more of an 'initial
thoughts' sort of discussion. If you think we hate all new cartoons,
this episode may surprise you! I know it surprised me.

In this episode, we find out how much Drew loves the 1980s as we review Megazone 23 PART 1 and Project A-ko. I don't think his co-hosts will ever forgive him.
Drew picked a fine time to get concerned over quality. At least,
what he has control over and that's what has taken so long for this to
get posted. Episodes 22, 23 and 24 are already recorded and won't be

This episode has two components, the first recorded on Friday, 19
September 2008 when we sat down with a good friend of mine, Keith
Daniell. Keith has been staffing with Anime Weekend Atlanta for the
past 14 years, save for one year. Jason Brown, Marc Smazik and myself

perspective of working as a groundling and up to the rank of Assistant
Director.

The Akihabara Renditions crew dig through old boxes and closets to
find some of the crappiest anime that they can for this special. I
guess a testament to our collections is that Jason's submission ended

Robotech tapes for his crap. What did they review that was such c...2008-12-3141 minAkihabara RenditionsEpisode 10 - Now With Less FinalsAt this point, all four panellists were all students. And, since we
went to different schools, schedules got confused and Richard was
accidentally left out of this one as Drew thought he was studying for
an upcoming exam.
Hosts: Drew Sutton, Jason Brown and Marc Smazik.
Again leaving out the roundtable to return at a later date, we
review two late 1980s science fiction classics, first is GAINAX's Wings of Honneamise (1987), which conveniently gets changed to Wings of Hummas and Mayonaise because that's easier to pronounce. Then we review 1989's Venus Wars2008-12-311h 51Akihabara RenditionsEpisode 9 - There's No Win Without FailEpisode 9 features a review for a series which has a special place
in most older anime fans hearts and probably one of the first series to

So yes, Akihabara Renditions steps up to the plate and offers another take on the 1987 (pseudo-)cyberpunk OAV series, Bubblegum Crisis.

Speaking of staples of 1990s-anime-from-Blockuster-Video, we'd
realized that we were skipping over probably the most famous of all - AKIRA
(1988). Our roundtable discussion is more of story-time as Drew
attempts to start a profile-in-fandom piece and talks about the man
that fans love to hate, Carl Macek. Finally, we review another little
OAV, Dragon Half (1993) that had captured a generation
of fans, particularly AMV creators, w...2008-12-311h 02Akihabara RenditionsEpisode 7 - Koko wa Podcast Tank PoliceEpisode 7 is now out again!

After the failure that was Please Save My Earth, we
hesitantly pick up another shoujo title. Marc is pleased because he
likes shoujo stuff and despite the trap in the series, 1993-96's Koko wa Greenwood OAV goes over fairly well. Our roundtable this episode attempts to discuss the significance of that beast we all love to hate: moe~.

Hosts: Drew Sutton, Richard Hoelsher, Marc Smazik and Jason Brown.
We come back to Miyazaki Hayao's work in this episode and pick of the first Studio Ghibli film, 1984's Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind.
Jason admits his sacrilidge for not necessarily being a fan of
Miyazaki's films. We then discuss piracy in anime fandom and debate the
topic as to whether or not fandom can exist without it now. We then
wrap it up with a review of a little OAV called ...2008-12-311h 08Akihabara RenditionsEpisode 5 - Jason Wants To Hit Me With CookiesEpisode 5 is re-released here! This is another episode that Drew is
proud of, probably for the exact opposite reasons he's proud of the
previous episode.
Hosts: Drew Sutton, Richard Hoelsher, Jason Brown and Marc Smazik.
Following the mixture of hot shit and hot, steaming pile of crap
that was our previous episode, Drew feels he has a sure-fire win with
1983's Crusher Joe. It backfires as he is the only
member of the cast who truly enjoys the film. We also discuss a current
state of broadcast anime and how it's changed since...2008-12-311h 22Akihabara RenditionsEpisode 4 - Hard Work, Guts and SunglassesEpisode 4 is finally re-released! This is an episode that Drew is

After another year at Anime Weekend Atlanta (Editor's Note: This was AWA XIII from 22 - 24 September 2007),
we sit down and review the convention as seen through the eyes of fans
and attendees. We of course harp on the biggest change that a lot of
other folks jumped on about the weekend, which was the hotel enforcing
a more restrictive alcohol policy, due mostly to events which
transpired the previous year. This all ends up going back to how fandom
used to...2008-12-311h 29Akihabara RenditionsEpisode 2 - Electric BoogalooWe're back for another exciting episode! Also joining us as another full time panellist is our good friend Richard Hoelsher!

We introduce Richard and briefly discuss his adventure through anime
fandom and his years staffing Anime Weekend Atlanta. We then get to the
