Anime Outsiders

The boys discuss the incredible ineptitude of the japanese Light Novel industry and how the editors might as well get credit as the actual authors in most cases. Other topics of the day: Insane Clown Posse and Fursuiting, the recent butchering of Dungeons and Dragons to make it more progressive and the new 9th level spell our intrepid hosts came up with to fix it (Power Word: Deadname), the superiority of Drow, Crunchyroll’s ridiculous LGBTBBQ+ panel and Crunchyroll’s equally ridiculous tendency to block everyone and their mother from their official twitter. Tanya did nothing wrong. SONG CREDIT: The Other Side – Pendulum

Cody Baier interviews the one and only Vic Mignogna.

Having had enough of the five alarm autistic dumpster-fire it turned into, Cody goes off on WeebWars! Meanwhile, everyone's favorite ANN personality Zac Bertschy privately deals with his divorce in an inspiring and dignified manner. Just kidding, he publicly embarrasses himself beyond belief. Join us in pointing and laughing!

So there was this little show you might have heard of called “Rise of the Shield Hero”. Is it any good? Is it funny? And why does that huge bird have sunglasses? Also on the chopping block: ANN promoting cult propaganda and the man with the edgiest Fursona ever, “I am everything a Republican hates” Sonicfox.

Vic Mignogna, known as the voice of Edward Elric and many other characters, has recently been accused of everything from being a primadonna, a jerk, a creep and even a rapist. The boys from The Other Side go over the accusations, who is making them and why they are suddenly springing up like weeds. Thrill as you experience the insane levels of pettiness supposedly grown adults in the industry have! Marvel at the incredible levels of deflection from people who tolerated actual proven rapists! This is an episode you won't want to miss! ADDENDUM: This podcast was recorded before more revelations came to light, which we would like to address briefly here. First, now that her story has been proven false, we feel confident in naming Jessie Pridemore as the accuser mentioned in the podcast. Voice Actor Todd Haberkorn came forward as the one she implied had raped her, and provided evidence showing the sexual encounter was consensual, and that Pridemore has held a bizarre fixation on Vic Mignogna, gleefully admitting to harassing him and his girlfriend at the time. Our initial guess as to who it might have been was incorrect, primarily because of Pridemore's insinuation that this person held too much power and influence, and outing him might cost her her career. I believe we can safely say Haberkorn does not fit this description, but we were unaware of just how much Pridemore was lying at the time of recording. Also since this episode was recorded, the websites Anime News Network and Dao of Dragonball produced hitpieces on Vic Mignogna citing the discredited facebook post from Pridemore as a source, with ANN's article using photos of Vic's fans without their consent to misrepresent the context of the photos to further their narrative, as well as adding bizarre claims such as Vic flirting with cross-dressing men. The Dao of Dragonball article also cited MarzGurl's tweets as evidence without doing any research into her claims, who she was, or the actions she was taking against Vic's fans (and mother). Had we recorded after these articles been posted, let it be known we would have had a field day with them.

LeighAnn returns for a lengthy discussion about Hellsing. Topics include the hilarious origin of Schrodinger, why so many characters in this show are cuckolds, how great the Major is and the ridiculous fanfictions people have written about this series. Lastly, there is a special mention of an insane online comic. Read Vinland Saga.

Just when you thought the Isekai genre might not be completely worthless after Overlord, here comes That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime to prove that it's still almost nothing but garbage! If a shitty self-insert show with tons of meaningless MMO factoids isn't up your alley though, there is always Saga of Tanya the Evil, which will have a movie out soon where she fights a Mary Sue (literally). One Piece is still a thing and it has been getting much better since the end of the Big Mom arc. Lastly Whitebeard, everyone's favorite incompetent captain, is finally exposed as the homosexual groomer he actually is.

After going over the recent events regarding AO's Twitter and Patreon, the boys go over various topics, ranging from the origins of the new Randall meme to Mother's Basement trying to start a slapfight with E;R. Lastly, Netflix Castlevania and it's overall great quality is discussed again.

Straight from the Maddox School of Law and Hurt Feelings, Tara Strong serves up a cease and desist against us! Other topics include the Sargon Strangler and Master of Kekate Gregory Ramos, H3 H3's recent shenanigans and MundaneMatt's amazingly well-designed card game. PS: Abridged series are still not funny.

Since the dawn of time, mankind has asked itself one question: Who are the biggest degenerates, anime fans or furries? Join the Other Side on a journey through the various fetishes infesting both communities as they attempt to provide a definitive answer. The results may surprise you!

The boys are back in town! In this episode, various Anitwitter Lolicons are mocked. Special mention goes to Digibro and his various hobbies and eccentricities, including his unique way to wear turbans and his personal fashion shows he does in front of his mirror. Other topics of discussion are the Ducktales reboot, Steins;Gate and The Legend of Korra (again).

Cody likes Fighting EX Layer.Also, Whitebringer and Negatokyo have been released on AO at last and are now available for your reading pleasure. For some incomprehensible reason, Andrew has started to self-harm by reading the Konosuba novels. With more explosions than the average London afternoon, these novels are sure to entertain if you are a horny loser with no standards!Max likes Kengan Asura.There's more Overlord discussion, too. Lastly, the guys speculate on which song the new Jojo anime will end up using.

Hey kids, do you like SCP? Well too bad, because it's creators don't like you back! It's understandable though, as they are far too busy writing their newest masterpieces, like the transsexual Tumble-blog having Homestuck self-insert SCP or the evil computer SCP that will destroy the world with meme frogs that totally aren't Pepe and was created by a wife-beating republican rapist! Also on the chopping block is Uma Musume, especially since it's creators are now begging people not to draw porn of the characters so that the Yakuza won't cut their fingers off! Lastly, there is some discussion on My Hero Academia, including it's atrocious openings and endings.

The Other Side finally returns, with a new format no less! Instead of letting themselves be constrained to a single topic per episode (with maybe some asides at the beginning), our hosts now talk about a smattering of different subjects! From Castlevania and it's spiritual successor Bloodstained, Star Wars, My Hero Academia, how much dick both Fooly Cooly and it's recent sequel suck all the way to how sexual psychology explains the anime fandom's endless fetishes and ravenous thirst, this episode has it all!

The Other Side finally returns! With Pop Team Epic and Dragonball Super having ended, the boys reminisce about their respective highlights while taking some shots at One Piece's horrible Big Mom arc along the way. Also, find out about the origin of Popuko and Pipimi's weird cat-faces and crazy twitter lesbians wanting to genocide Israel.

After making fun of Anitubers (because dear God, you never run out of material with these guys), the boys from the Other Side dive straight into the first Isekai/MMO-show to actually be worth a shit: Overlord! The adventures of magical Skullomania and his harem of equally horrible and hilarious monsters are discussed in detail. Why does this show succeed where all the other SAO-knockoffs (and SAO itself) have failed? Find out in this episode!

More editing problems, terrible anime and the spring season (for real this time), this episode truly has it all! Plus some talk about people who don't like Pop Team Epic and why they should not qualify as human in a civilized society. It's fun for the whole family!

After so many audio problems thet made this episode resemble a Slender Man tape, the boys of the Other Side are finally back to talk about the Spring Season... which has long since started. Whoops. Nevertheless, enjoy a blast from the not so distant past as you marvel at how incredibly, totally and entirely accurate all their predictions turn out to be. Again.

Get out your spit-sake and hairbands, because we are watching Your Name! The latest entry into the “movie where people on the poster are wistfully standing around in the sky while a word salad title flashes across”-genre spices things up by turning into anime Armageddon halfway though. Why? Who knows! Certainly not the writers, that much is for sure. In fact, there are so many glaring plotholes in this badly-written piece of tripe that you'd almost swear the script was produced with the “monkeys on typewriters” method. Join the boys on The Other Side and their special guest as they tear into yet another movie beloved by pretentious anime critics and the kinds of people that think Jojo is not feminist enough.

The hard boys at TOS dive into the strangest post-apocalypse* this side of a Ziltoid invasion: Kemono Friends! From having a budget of 20 bucks and a pair of salad tongs to being screwed over by it's owners, there are quite a lot of things that make this show worth talking about. What does Cody think about Grape-kun? Why are there Penguin idols? Who is the best character?** Is this show finally the proof that Crunchyroll actually helps the anime industry?!*** What is it even about? Are we so dumb we even answer rhetorical questions? And most important of all, is Kemono Friends actually any good? All this and more will be revealed in this episode!*except not really**Moose.***lolno
