DREAMcast Ep 26 – The Glorious Fist of The North Star

 

Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the glorious Fist of the North Star Special

We are finally going to tackle one of Anime’s & Manga’s founding Shounen titles….something we have been looking forward to do for a long long time I might add :oP

The MANLIEST OF MANLY anime franchises is finally up on our chopping block to be discussed with by your Host ME: Donald Wunder and The Old B…….errr I can’t find Katface…..okay…then Geea…..fuck….he’s gone AWOL

So…..i’m going to have to talk about the manliest of anime with……Nu..Nuansay…a la..lady…really?

Why do the anime gods hate me so……..

Cough….i mean of course…of couse…we are going to get the very much appreciated female perspective on one of the goryiest…bloodiest….most violent shows…ever ..made……yeah……I don’t see why that wouldn’t make sense…..it’s all about equality after all…..right?

Nuansay:  just hurry up and get on with it already….jeez i do have other things ta dew ya know!

Grrr……Anyhow…

ON THIS EPISODE…we go into depth on ALMOST ALL the various animated releases of FOTNS…and believe me folks there are quite a few out there.

We talk about the various fighting styles, characters, affect it had on shounen anime, other non anime and manga releases such as the video games and US live action movie (LMAO) and then we end on what we might want to see IF the franchise decided to continue somehow.

I’ve also written a supplementary FOTNS Anime BLOG which more or less goes over all the titles we discussed in this DC episode and I even include a recommended watching list for those who may be interested.

I hope ya enjoy the pressure points we be hitting on this episode…….if ya don’t then…well…guess what
