I wish I had that long new anime list T.T…..

Good First eppy

This podcast was recommanded to me by my friend =)

Btw at next episode try to not only develop your ideas into something better, but also make it more fun and develop personal ideas about your group. present news that are not easily found. For example the next anime con is going to be at this date, companies that are going to be presented there and the location. is one of your team members a cosplayer, cross-dresser, lolicon maniac?? Present that also, its fun!!!

Try to present your characters as well as presenting anime and anime news, in compination with all ‘Cryptomnemonics’ points. You have something there, you just need to develop it, keep going.

(Btw, sometimes i cant get to understand what you people say, i dont know if its cause its 4 in the morning but keep a bit of a distance from the mic. Enough to be heard, but also good enough so the words sont mix together and ‘eaten’ by the mic!!!)

I agree with bakavic that there should be show notes. It’s pretty standard for most podcasts and that makes it easier for listeners to read the posts mentioned in topic discussions.

And since you’re fielding suggestions:
+ What’s the “point of no return” in terms of finishing a series?

+ Going off Hinano’s comment, what should be done to fix crappy fanservice for girls? BTW, this is coming from a guy.

Keep up the good work!

LOL!

Great job! Looking forward to episode 2!

Show notes will also help in rehashing the topics discussed,
and is usefulin making your podcast “searchable”, as people looking for insight on a particular topic discussed can get to your podcast through search engines and stuff.

Anyways, congrats for a wonderful starting episode to your podcast show!

Here’s my suggestions:

If you’ve blogged it, or somebody else has, don’t say it (ex: that new show that’s Shakugan no Shana-meets-Harry Potter). Bring something new to the table. Between now and the next podcast, take something you want to blog and don’t - save it for the podcast.

You don’t have to rehash current blogging conversations (shojo/shonen labels) - especially ones where there’s not a lot of controversy - unless you have something to say that totally recasts (or mercilessly mocks) the discussion. Use the podcast to start conversations - assign a topic for listeners to blog about, then pick the best post on the next podcast.

Focus on stuff you’re passionate about instead of round-ups (e.g. of licensing news, mediocre new series) that don’t inspire strong feelings and already get thoroughly blogged. Argue with each other. Extreme opinions ftw! Don’t be too cool to talk like a fan - sometimes you should skip thoughtful/witty/nuanced and go straight to the ZOMG material.

Talk about bloggers & blogging (but not ad nauseam). Periodically give blogging awards, mixing silly & serious categories. Get your readers/listeners to submit anonymously something they’ve always wanted to say to another blogger, whether it’s have-my-baby fanmail or bringing the hate….

Mix up the format - it doesn’t have to be 3-way conversations all the time. Turn over the mike to one of the hosts for a rant, lecture, poetry reading, whatever. Rant-of-the-week is a big crowd-pleaser - it doesn’t have to be angry why-I-hate-___, maybe you’re dying to unleash your inner fanboy/girl and go off on why ___ is the best series/seiyuu/etc. ever! Do a few of these, and your listeners will be begging to do their own on-air rants.

Get creative and goofy - if the summer season’s mostly meh, have a recurring segment where Ouran’s Renge does anime makeovers. Dubs suck? Take a transcript of a poorly-dubbed show (or soon-to-be-poorly-dubbed), and U B the Dubbers - hilarity, as they say, ensues.

Skype w/your other hosts regularly between podcast sessions, until you get a feel for their rhythms & cadences and how to bring out their best comments, opinions, jokes, etc.

Good luck!

I really look forward to more!

I brought up the whole ‘talk about buttsechz’ thing, though.

Hung: “I’m sure Stripey could tell us.”

LOL!

Also: more people involved would be good, but not too many more to keep audability. Needs some more different accents to sex it up a bit, too.

Btw, yes Z maybe a bastardization of the original, but the cute factor keeps us tuning in for more! Not to mention the henshin sequences :3

Also, I did submit to the iTunes Podcast Directory. I think it needs to be approved first, though.

You should really fix the RSS feed link on the right, right now it links to ‘feed://http//podcast.animenano.com/feed/’

Also, ever considered adding it to the iTunes Music Store Podcast Directory?

Is everyone briefed on the topics beforehand or do you just slip it in on them on the sly? Prior Knowledge might help for some more indepth discussions, and take a little bit of the weight from Hung.

Also, personally I’d prefer the guests to introduce themselves.. Not that Hung’s voice isn’t sexy enough. Just feels more right.

I also vote for getting orz up in there, for the angryman wildcard.

But good stuff anyhow

I kid I’ll go listen to it now with baited anticipation of buttseckz
