Ikari Strain #5 - Yay or Nay: Discord Directories

4/25/2022
Since we opened our Discord server (shameless plug; link in description), we sought out Discord directories to promote the community. Case in point: Disboard. After a recent issue that should have had a closer look upon execution, it could have gotten our server and myself deleted from the service. We weigh in if Disboard was to blame, or if it’s just the way of this sad world. "Ikari Strain" are special episodes within the Centaku Media Podcast where one topic is chosen and ripped apart in criticism in hopes of reaching those who can relate to the problems riddled within.

Ikari Strain #4 - Artesian Builds...Did...WHAT?!

4/25/2022
So glad that the Ikari Strain series was created for discussions such as this! In case you haven't heard, a now-defunct Custom PC company called "Artesian Builds" went under due to a Livestream fail, where the CEO publicly announced who is worthy of winning their giveaways based on numbers. I rant about this being a terrible idea, in addition to how it hit too close to home as a victim of gatekeeping as a content creator.

Ikari Strain #3: How Long is Too Long of an Anime Series?

9/9/2021
In this episode, Sanjo-chan talks about the ideal episode length of an anime series. We have the common 12 episode anime length as an "entry level", followed by the 24 episode variety (or 12 episodes split into two parts). Lastly, we have the uncommon 52 episode offerings. But when one should be considered lucky if their favorite anime are either Dragon Ball, Naruto, and One Piece from the very beginning. "Ikari Strain" are special episodes within the Centaku Media Podcast where one topic is chosen and ripped apart in criticism in hopes of reaching those who can relate to the problems riddled within.
