Another anime newscast from your pals Setsuken and Guardian Enzo. Our main focus this week (not counting Enzo's double entendres) is Netflix (a recurrent theme for us). There's also some Ghibli talk, a first look at the PS5 and how it can impact your anime experience, and our usual customer feedback and questions.

It's that time of year, when all the ghouls dance merrily through the land spreading terror. Election season? No, silly - Halloween! And while you won't be trick-or-treating or partying this year (we hope) you can at least settle down with Notaku as Enzo and Setsuken share their Halloween anime favorites. Plus, our favorite scary movies and spookiest personal experiences. As usual, we have industry news, listener questions, haiku, and a manga recommendation with a Halloween theme.
This week is a special one for the podcast, because we've launched our first listener survey. It can be found at https://notaku.typeform.com/to/BVbax3uQ and shouldn't take more than 3-5 minutes to complete. We'd be grateful if you share your feedback as we consider the next phase for Notaku.

Anime on TV may be in a rough patch creatively, but what about in the cinema? The pandemic has wreaked havoc on the theatrical film industry, but anime movies are thriving artistically in a way their TV cousins simply are not. Setsuken and Enzo take a closer look - as well as offer up the usual anime news, listener questions, and a check-in with what's new this season.

A new season is underway, and Guardian Enzo and Setsuken share their thoughts in an an expanded "What We're Watching" (one premiere topped both our lists). There's also our Oricon rankings and news (Evangelion mention #1) section, featuring some updates to stories we've discussed previously. And our dive into the deep end this week explores the most influential anime of all-time (Evangelion mention #2) - in our humble opinions, of course. Enzo's manga recommendation features the best romcom in manga, and another "Haiku Challenge" (Evangelion mention #3). Finally, it's listener questions.

Guardian Enzo and Setsuken are back solving (or at least calling out) the problems facing anime. This time we talk about a few non-anime things we're watching, and a new feature to our news segment, and discuss whether "gatekeepers" exist in the anime fandom (and what role they play). Plus a manga recommendation, a little off-the-cuff-poetry, and a question about series we loved in spite of the visuals.
Please make sure and join us next week for our very special Fall Season Preview episode! If you have anything you'd like us to answer or discuss related to the fall season, please let us know.
