The duo discuss the nuclear option, preachy protagonists, and the body count for this finale, and why they will not be covering the series' sequel, Gundam SEED Destiny.

In today's five episodes ("The Vanishing Gundam," "The Scar of Space," "Songstress of the Enemy Forces," "The Fading Light," and "Crossroads") we see this in the cohabitation of Lacus Clyne (a Coordinator) and Flay Allster (who is bigoted towards Coordinators). Listen on to see if this dynamic rings as loud for the duo now as it did in 2005.2014-01-241h 13Animezing PodcastAnimezing PodcastAnimezing Podcast - Episode 155After a nearly three-month hiatus, Animezing Podcast is back! Kellen is joined by James to watch one of the duo's most long-cherished anime series: Mobile Suit Gundam SEED.

"Cook Up an Erection in Mine!," which the duo think deserved more care with its baseball puns. "Give My 'Bad' a Thrilla-Thriller!," which contains a simultaneously loving and scathing tribute to the King of Pop. "A Threesome in My Dome?!," which sees the culimation of many of the shows recurring gags. And "My Finish! Take a Look at This!," which contains ridiculousness that cannot be contained in this intro. In addition to that, Kellen discusses the show with the...2013-10-181h 23Animezing PodcastAnimezing PodcastAnimezing Podcast - Episode 152In this episode of Animezing Podcast, things get even weirder on Nerima Daikon Brothers. "Roll Mine, No. 1" features the most ridiculously domineering wife in all of media (as well as what may be a direct Simpsons homage). "My Backroom Fortune-Telling" involves hilarious duck puns. "Play with Mine! Sue Me!" sees the show take a very meta-humorous turn. And "My Dirt-Cheap Rocket is About to Launch!" involves a pink Darth Vader costume.

It must be stated that these are episode titles, and not suggestive or rhetorical questions on the part of the hosts.2013-09-181h 00Animezing PodcastAnimezing PodcastAnimezing Podcast - Episode 150After nearly two months, Kellen finally had a chance to sit down and discuss 2013's edition of Ai-Kon. While this will not be an unbiased review (Kellen and Jon have been members of the Planning Committee and Volunteer Corps, respectively, for some time now), it is the most detailed and all-access look you will get at Manitoba's largest anime convention.2013-09-123h 11Animezing PodcastAnimezing PodcastAnimezing Podcast - Episode 149In 2004, 4Kids Entertainment licensed One Piece for English adaptation. This adaptation has the reputation of being one of the worst adaptations ever produced. In 2007, after the license was dropped by 4Kids, Funimation Entertainment acquired the license and produced their own version. Kellen has watched through a significant amount of both of these versions of the show and asks the question: While the Funimation dub is better, was what 4Kids did really as bad as most make it out to be?2013-08-2128 minAnimezing PodcastAnimezing PodcastAnimezing Podcast - Episode 144Kellen and James reach the end of Kaleido Star season one with a blast as they review the final six episodes: "The Amazing Mystery Star," "The Amazing Resolve Beneath the Mask," "The Legendary Amazing Maneuver," "The Amazing Intensive Training Continues," "An Amazing Bond," and "An Amazing Comeback."

"Anna's Not So Amazing Father" gives us comedy that is in no way funny. "An Amazing Hot New Production" and "The Amazing Competition Calls Up a Storm" provide some of the most awesomely ridiculous action sequences in any anime. "Mysterious Amazing Circus" has some of the worst repeating animation this side of the 1960s. And "The Diva's Amazing Love" breaks every concept of time imaginable.

The usual complaints about Viz's treatment of the production remain, but the multiple relationship blowups, secrets being revealed, and the most screwed up 15 year old in all of anime keep the scores high. And to celebrate the breakups, we spin some No Doubt.2013-02-111h 36Animezing PodcastAnimezing PodcastAnimezing Podcast - Episode 132In what may be the most emotionally draining episode of Animezing Podcast to date, Kellen and Lisa review five more episodes of Nana. Kellen freaks out about a couple changes in the Western release, as well as by a particular voice actress whose character debuts. In honor of the final episode reviewed, we throw in a song from the Foo Fighters.
