In this episode, we interview the voice of like…everybody ever, the one and only Steve Blum! Best known to gradually aging anime fans as the voice of Spike Spiegel in Cowboy Bebop and less aging anime fans as the voice of Leeron in Gurren Lagann, Steve has been warping youths for decades now. So give this one a shot, and since we TOTALLY forgot to mention it, check the Review Index for all of our previous show reviews!

And if you’re in Florida, you’re in luck! Not only will you be able to meet Steve, but also the rest of the core English language cast for Cowboy Bebop over the summer! The appearances are as follows:

May 7th at Florida Super Comics, Games, Anime + More – Beau Billingslea (Jet Black)
May 27-29 at Florida Anime Experience – Steve Blum (Spike Spiegel)
July 1-4 at Florida Supercon – Melissa Fahn (Ed Wong)
August 5-7 at Anime Festival Orlando – Wendee Lee (Faye Valentine)

Special thanks to Wasabi Anime for doing the heavy lifting on this one, because arranging interviews with guests is HARD.

It took something like nine months, but now that Clarissa isn’t working full time and taking a full load of graduate school classes she can now bring to us her review of the Viz Signature release of Kingyo Used Books.

For this endeavor, we are joined by “Chiaki Tachibana” from the Anime Addicts Anonymous Podcast. We make this distinction to note that she is NOT he Shin Megami Tensei character, NOR is she the one from the hentai After Class Lesson whose character bio according to MyAnimeList is “The fifth girl who was raped, she is lesbian and a miko.” (That biography is completely inaccurate since she wasn’t fifth.) Daryl was previously a guest on their podcast; for links to that as well as all of our other guest appearances on other podcasts, refer to the “Guest Spots” link at the top of the page.

In the emails, we end up talking about Infinite Ryvius and somehow BLASTER KNUCKLE~!, which prompts the question “do we even need to review Blaster Knuckle now?” You already know everything you need to know based on what was said about it here! We also mention this Yotsuba&! Photoshop on moe (featuring a more different manga about manga than what we reviewed this episode).

On the subject of Kingyo Used Books: Volume 1 and Volume 2 are currently available for sale, and you can read sample chapters from each volume as well as Volume 3 via the Viz SigIkki website.

Oh, we almost forgot: Bob from Pittsburgh made this logo for us! Well, not so much FOR us so much as practice for himself, but we’ve decided we would steal it and maybe start using it for publicity things someday. Thoughts?
