Soul Eater

This time on the OSMcast! we decided things were getting little too old in the mix, so we thought we’d review something a bit newer. So here’s a podcast all about the anime adaptation of Soul Eater by BONES, from the original work by Atsushi Okubo.

Rail kept complaining that the opening wasn’t HARDCORE enough. So hopefully it sufficed. While Funimation has the rights to the Soul Eater anime and will surely be releasing the DVDs at some point, Yen Press has the manga rights and will start releasing the manga in stand alone volumes starting in October. In the meantime the Soul Eater manga is being printing in their monthly Yen Plus magazine.

So, we asked in this episode about the use of our forum. Would you like for us to have our own set of forums, or would you just like us to use the forums we actually have? Let us know!

There is also contest stuff but Basil is lazy and has work in the morning so you can just scroll down and see what’s up in a previous OSMnotes.

Mushishi, by Yuki Urushibara is the topic of tonight’s OSMcast! And it’s definitely awesome. But don’t take our word for it! … Well, actually do take our word for it, but listen to us talk abut why first!

Really you should go buy a copy of Mushishi in one form or another right now. Though you’ll probably have to special order it. But that’s okay because this manga and anime is pretty special.

In that good way, not that short bus special or anything.

So go git it.

Like, now.

Go!

And we’re back! This week DJ Inubito and Basil talk about Nerdapalooza 2008 and Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots.

So it sounds like Nerdapalooza 2008 was pretty bad ass! If you want to check out CSHC with our man DJ Inubito on the plates, check out their YouTube page.

And like we said, MGS4 is gosh darn awesome. And you do end up feeling pretty bad for Old Snake sometimes, when they make fun of him for being old and his Psych meter goes down in the saddest noise possible.

So how about that “On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness” stuff eh guys and gals?

Pretty good stuff! You should totally buy it. Or at least try the demo. You could also go buy Commando 3 on the XBLA while you’re at it so you can try the new SFII: HD Remix beta going on. Or Space Invaders Extreme!
I still cannot beat Level 4, but one day… ONE DAY!!!

I will triumph!

Are you read for some unbridled passion as two souls burn brightly about Grand Theft Auto the Fourth? Well too bad we’ve already recorded it!

Though to be fair, we ended up playing Street Fighter III: Third Strike afterwards instead. Will there be another Inubito/Basil podcast about the upcoming Street Fighter TV once it releases? Oh yes. And who knows… since we only scratched the surface that is GTA IV, there may be another about GTA IV in the far flung future. For example if you wanted an in depth discussion on how Niko’s journey into America as an immigrant was portrayed in the game compared to how it is seen and actually is in America, well… We could do that.

Or we could talk about playing darts and going to strip clubs in the game. Whatever floats your boat.

And as always tell us about these things and your opinions in the comments section, send us an email (osmcast@gmailDOTcom), or throw down a voice mail our way!

Tonight on the slightly delayed OSMcast! we talk about Baccano! And it’s many, many crazy characters.

We also talk about Tokyopop’s current reshuffling as well as Rock Band’s attempt at taking over Japan.

But it’s mostly about Baccano(!).

And also beer.

But really Baccano(!).

In other news, we now have Promos! Check the sidebar to your right and check’em out!

Trivia: This is now our longest podcast! ZOMG.

The World of OSM games we talked about were Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes, Lost Winds, On the Rain-slick Precipice of Darkness: Episode One, and Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe. The anime is Soul Eater, based on a manga by Atsushi Ohkubo and animated by BONES.

Sorry about the lack of Narnia once again, but we’ll make it up to you! But really guys, it is like “Spinal Tap meets Scooby-Doo meets Norway.” Until next time awesome believers!

Tonight on the OSMcast! we go go go after the latest movie adaptation by The Wachowski Brothers, the Tatsunoko Production’s classic anime hit Speed Racer.

Also in case you hadn’t notice, Inubito thought the remix of the Speed Racer theme was so awesome, he included all of it. Be forewarned! Or not! However this does end creating our longest podcast ever. But anyway, seriously guys, there were parts of this movie that were more awesome than Iron Man. Really. Not kidding! Though I guess overall Iron Man is the better movie, it’s already made tons of money so go spend it on Speed Racer instead!

Next week we’ll hopefully if schedules allow be covering the new Narnia film, and possibly something else a little more… metal. Till then! Email us at osmcast@REMOVECAPSgmail.com, or just throw us some comments at the bottom of this post.

We’ve gone back in time to olden days of April for this OSMcast! where Basil and Nobody have a conversation about one of the longest named games on the DS: Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates.

We also talk about games like FF7: Crisis Core and Lost Odyssey, though not for long. Friday we’ll be continuing our “Nerds Go Out to the Movies” escapades this month with our take on the new Speed Racer movie! Though here’s a hint: Basil liked it a whole lot, though Eric and Nobody liked it as well. Though not as much as me. I mean Basil.

Check back with us Friday! (Also email us, comment us, let us know you exist! Please?)

In this episode of the OSMcast! The gang’s all here as we talk about the 2004 OAV Re: Cutie Honey! And also a little bit of Rock Band.

Next week the plan is to take a blast into the pretty recent past as we release our previously recorded podcast about Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates! Then we’ll probably see about tackling Spped Racer.
