Ever wondered which anime main character you would be? Join Nathan (aka Natey) and our returning anime expert, Taj, as we both surprisingly find our alter ego in Goku from Dragon Ball Z! With Katy unexpectedly absent, we kick off the episode with a fun quiz and share our personal anime favorites—Pokémon for Nathan and a heartening love for ramen from Taj. This sets the stage for a nostalgic journey into the world of Studio Ghibli, beginning with an in-depth look at "My Neighbor Totoro."
Jump into our discussion where we compare the English dub and the original Japanese version of "My Neighbor Totoro," exploring how voice acting can shape our emotional experiences. We recount our personal connections to this beloved classic, highlighting its hand-drawn animation and the simple yet profound storyline that makes Ghibli films so magical. Our conversation broadens to include other Studio Ghibli favorites, with "Howl’s Moving Castle" earning a special mention for its captivating story and visuals.
Rounding out the episode, we share varied opinions on "My Neighbor Totoro," discussing its whimsical elements and the iconic status of Totoro in popular culture. While some of us appreciate the slow pace and simplicity, others find it less engaging but still visually and musically stunning. We introduce a new segment where we read fan mail and encourage listeners to send in their questions and movie suggestions. Stay tuned as we also tease our excitement for exploring an upcoming MMA-themed movie, promising a fresh and thrilling genre adventure!
