The intro ended up running long, but fret not as we'll release that audio next time! For now, Clarissa reviews 1987's Zillion, the coolest 80s Saturday morning cartoon / toy advertisement we never grew up with. Whether you're into Sega, Production IG, or Robotech, be ready to be mad at us getting things wrong here! Visit www.animeworldorder.com for full show notes and supplemental links.
It took us a while--okay, it took 17 years since the last one--but we finally get around to completing our coverage of the 1980s Yoshikazu Yasuhiko post-Gundam film trilogy as Gerald reviews 1986's Neo Heroic Fantasia Arion, which most of us just knew as "Arion."

In this episode we bring Dave Merrill back on to talk about his favorite movie (and a Patreon request): 1969's The Flying Phantom Ship, adapted from a manga by Shotaro Ishinomori. DID YOU KNOW HAYAO MIYAZAKI DREW A PART OF THIS MOVIE? (Yes. Yes we do know. You can lower your hand and sit down now.) Visit www.animeworldorder.com for full show notes and supplemental links.
IF YOUR DOWNLOADED EPISODE 216 IS JUST EPISODE 215 AGAIN: please delete and then redownload the episode from your podcast app. There was a typo in the RSS feed that we fixed immediately, but it didn’t propagate to the podcast directories for two hours. We meant to release this in January but uh, didn't. Anyway, this time around Gerald reviews the latest film from Masaaki Yuasa, Inu-Oh from 2021 (though it didn't come out in Japan/USA until 2022).

So begins a new year of podcasting for us! We're trying something new out by not necessarily reviewing one thing, but talking about a selection of Christmas-themed episodes of anime arranged from "least Christmas-y" to "most Christmas-y." Visit www.animeworldorder.com for full show notes and supplemental links.
It's our annual Thanksgiving trivia episode! We're joined this time by the highly versatile writer Kara Dennison (@RubyCosmos), who in addition to writing prose fiction also contributes to Crunchyroll and Otaku USA. As Lupin the Third would say, compared to her we're stumblebums. Visit www.animeworldorder.com for full show notes and supplemental links.
Because we just don't have enough randos blaming us singlehandedly for American anime fandom's ignorance, we've decided to talk about the theatrical film Mobile Suit Gundam: Cucuruz Doan's Island, a remake of the "lost episode" of the original Mobile Suit Gundam series. Visit www.animeworldorder.com for full show notes and supplemental links.
It's been a while since Gerald "pulled a Gerald": reviewed something that you can't easily go see. But he's back at it, reviewing the 1992 3-part OAV series Genesis Surviver Gaiarth. Visit www.animeworldorder.com for full show notes and supplemental links.
We're graced by a dangerous duo of mecha/mahjong enthusiasts this time around: Dave Cabrera (@Sasuraiger on Twitter) and Carl (@SDShamshel) join us for a convention report of Otakon 2022 which was held in Washington D.C. Visit www.animeworldorder.com for full show notes and supplemental links.
With Otakon 2022 nearly upon us (we'll be there and have panels), Clarissa reviews 2014's Witch Craft Works, a 12-episode adaptation of Ryu Mizunami's recently-completed manga, the entirety of which is now available in English both digitally as well as in print.
