Bubblegum Crisis

Tonight  we dethrone the AWO’s “Last podcast to podcast about Bubblegum Crisis” crown with our our podcast about Bubblegum Crisis! … Mostly.

Okay sometimes we talked about Mega Man 9.

But it’s usually about Bubblegum Crisis, really!

Looking at the various places one can buy the boxed set of Bubblegum Crisis, I discovered that the best place was actually AnimEigo themselves. And if you like anime form the 1980s and/or hot chicks blowing up robots and/or cool mecha designs and/or awesome synth and rock music, you now have the links.

Get on it.

8-Bit Jesus: Classic Christmas Songs ala chiptunes

And as we said, we all here at OSM Central hope you all out there had an awesome Christmas and a future Happy New Year! Like we said you still need some holiday music, 8-Bit Jesus is still there, just waiting for you. To you know… Download it.

Of course, what better way to give the gift of commenting than to give us some comments! We have that whole comments section just for that, too! Or send us an email at osmcast@gmail.com. Or, as always, the OSMline is open to be called up and what not. The number for that is (206) 202-0071.

After several months of not being able to update the podcast’s publishing plug in, I’ve changed eveyrthing over to Blubrry’s Powerpress plugin. Thankfully it’s able to import all of WordPress’ stuff, so it was really easy! 

However, it’s not as nimble to be able to allow me to place the podcast wherever I pleased, so now it’s on the top of every post.

If you see a “” in a previous post, that was just the code that called up the old player. Also, the new player has volume control! If that means anything.

Macross Frontier

It’s all about high flying, mecha, idol sings, and guns, lots of guns in this episode of the OSMcast! Of course, the topic is the latest Shōji Kawamori epic, Macross Frontier.

Okay I think we are back on track and ready to rock. Inubito’s actual main computer should be arriving this week, which means he won’t have to try and hack at editing this podcast on his laptop.

This is good news for the world.

(What’s not good news for the world is that as I’ve been editing the post for this podcast my power has gone out twice. So let’s rush though this and gte this suck up before it’s too late.)

Macross Frontier is, like we said, in no way licensed for the US and may never be. So our only recourse is the wide wonderful world of torrents and downloading. I’m pretty sure that the right Google search can point in you the right direction.

This is how Singapore sees Bubblegum Crisis. In very small preview images.

Next week we plan on talking about Bubblegun Crisis, that classic 80′s anime about hot chicks in powered armor blowing up robots. It really doesn’t get more awesome than that. Of course, I now realize that I think that Daryl Surat of AWO is also revivewing BBC in their next episode… So let’s see who updates with thier BBC podcast first! It’ll be exciting! … Or possibly not.

As always we are starved for attention so please give us some by either posting in the comments below, sending us an email at osmcast@gmail.com, or giving us a call on the OSMline at (206) 202-0071.

Adolescence of Utena

The OSMcast rises from it’s grave of computer woe’d-ashes to deliver unto you our take on one of the most awesome, trippy, postmodernist, animated movies ever: Adolescence of Utena AKA The Utena Movie.

Protip: And while I know that this is technically the 15th of December, this was recorded with the intent of getting up on the 1st, so it’s still dated for that time.

There are still a few options for you to go buy this movie, and you most definitely should.

Sadly, while we have been able to finagle an actual podcast for your listening enjoyment, Inubito’s computer is still down for the count. On the plus side, Lee no longer has mono! But yes, we are back in business so there shouldn’t be any interruptions again for the near or distant future.

We hope.

So in the meantime we give you a glimpse into a world where bulletproof tigers run rampant and polar bears need not fear the arctic wastes:

The consequences of this action could be... deadly!

Sadly, Inubito’s computer has been struck a mighty blow, and until it recoveres we can’t finish editing any new episodes. 

We have them, but no computer kinda makes it hard to make happen. BUT as soon as it’s fixed we’ll be posting again!
