Warui Deshou: An Anime Podcast: Recent Episodes

Warui Deshou

"Warui Deshou" is a Japanese phrase that roughly translates to "It will be bad." And, we believe we make bad content...but we also believe that very thing can be good when there's enough love and fun put into it!

Hosts and friends Doc and Shadon love anime and really enjoy talking about it. For hours at a time. Each episode they will discuss a different anime show/movie and will aim to make you think and make you laugh. They're just as likely to unabashedly gush about how cool a character is as they are to launch into a long aside of thematic analysis. Bad puns and impressions may also appear Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/waruideshou/support

Hello, friends!

It has been a long time since we released a podcast. Very long. This current hiatus is the longest break we’ve taken from recording since we began the show nine (9!) years ago. We aren’t calling it quits or anything; in fact, once we return we intend to redouble our focus on covering anime. However, due to scheduling we are not exactly sure when our next episode will be coming out.

In the mean time, to tide you good folks over, Doc will be streaming Monster Hunter World twice weekly over on Twitch! A couple of episodes are already in the can. It’s his first playthrough, and he already really loves the game. And anything he loves, he wants to talk about, so there are some definite podcast vibes.

You can catch up with any episodes you missed via this YouTube playlist. VODs should be available 24-48 hours after streams complete, depending on the editing needs.

Thanks so much, folks. Until the next episode, embrace each other, everyone, to the ends of the universe. See you on Twitch!

Hello, friends! We actually released two pods this month! Who'd have guessed it could happen again? This episode we are talking about the 2019 Noah Baumbach film "Marriage Story" starring Matoko Kusanagi and Kylo Ren! In all seriousness, we both really liked this movie and we hope you enjoy our chat about how it goes in on the American legal system, what we thought of all the performances, how the film is disarmingly funny at times (often because of its subject matter rather than in spite of it), stimulates reflections on relationships and fatherhood, and just generally creates awareness and empathy in us.

Doc & Shadon saddle up to bring you all a mammoth sixty billion double-dollar-sized helping of podcast about one of our all-time favorite anime: Trigun! This show was an important one for both of us in the early, formative years of our anime fandom. Perhaps surprisingly, we both found that, not only does it hold up (in terms of what we come to anime for) but it has some depths we did not plumb when we were in our teens and twenties.

We cover a ton of topics in this show, including: a character analysis of Vash The Stampede, utilitarian/consequentialist morality vs deontic/non-consequentialist morality, how the show drops the ball with its female cast, the anime's tonal shift, Christian symbolism, comparison of Trigun to other media, favorite gags, how many Gung-ho Guns can you name, and so much more!

For you, it was the most important podcast of your life, for us...it was Tuesday.

Welcome back, friends, to Warui Deshou, where this time we discuss the notorious 1994 fighting game film adaptation, Street Fighter: The Movie! While it can occasionally be charmingly camp, and Raul Julia's performance is beyond reproach, much of the time the movie's poor casting and writing leave us cringing and groaning. But, how would we adapt a fighting game story to the silver screen? What lessons can be learned from this one? From its troubled production? In addition to pondering these serious topics, Doc & Shadon have a good laugh at SF's expense.

Production details and stories mentioned by Shadon are from this Guardian Piece: https://www.theguardian.com/games/2018/jul/16/inside-street-fighter-movie-jean-claude-van-damme-kylie-minogue

After talking a bit about some creatives behind the film as well as its production, the hosts analyze the movie's aesthetics, anti-war themes, metaphorical interpretations of the castle, differences from the novel, and, of course, its very abrupt ending.

Hello, friends, and welcome to Warui Deshou's Holiday/Year-End Special! I already wrote this description once, and 2021 hates me so much that it disappeared my write-up for no reason whatsoever. That being the case, this description will be even more low-effort than usual, which is saying something.

In this here podcast, Shadon and Doc discuss all their favorite anime, video games, podcasts, YouTubers, John Woo movies, and Stephen King novels they've experienced in this bloody endless year. Not one single once of prep was done by either host before the pod. Listen at your own risk.

WHAT'S UP DANGER? Hey gang, it's our maiden voyage into the great big ocean of Non-Anime Podcast Episodes! ICYMI, we are going to be doing two pods a month, one anime and one non. For this month's non, Shadon has chosen a pair of exemplary superhero animated films. We know these movies have a ton of big fans, so we hope we've done them justice in our (lengthy) discussion!

First, we detail our histories with these characters across various forms of media. Then, we talk about each film separately, why we like each so much and we we think each does really well. Next, we compare the two in terms of their tone, goals, accessibility, stand-alone-ness, core themes, and how well each film presents the essence of its protagonist. Finally, we answer some very good questions put to us by our Discord group. Please enjoy!

Welcome back, friends, to Warui Deshou! This episode, Shadon & The Subtle Doctor review and discuss the rather bonkers 2016 anime Drifters.

As usual, opinions are divided on the show. Doc is full of praise for its interesting concept, generally fun tone, and its humor. Shadon found it a boring exercise in propaganda. Despite their differing takes, the boys have a lot of fun discussing all of the above and so much more on Drifters. We hope you enjoy! Hearts to Yoichi! <3

There are a number of content warning for Drifters. We'd advise those inclined to listen to our discussion of those before jumping into the series.

Doc and Shads call for transport on a journey that has already been near universally lauded by anime critics and find themselves in agreement!

A lot can happen in 3 months. Or perhaps very little at all.

Join Shadon and Doc as they cover the much maligned special finale of Wonder Egg Priority and plunge head first into topics such as the continual blight of poor, exploitative production practices, Sawaki's revelation about Koito that does to the show what the Hindenburg did to the viability of hydrogen blimps, Neiru apparently being an AI now(?) and other terrible, terrible moments. If you've watched the actual episode itself, I'm so, so sorry. Patron questions are also answered and brain cells die en masse trying to figure out the why and how of this twenty car pile up of a bonus episode.

Covered in this 45 minute rant include topics such as the post credits scene with Short Hair Vivy, the weak textual support for the Archive's motivation, Elizabeth's perfunctory inclusion in the closing episodes, technological conservatism and the one good bit where Vivy gets to sing to conclude her journey.

He also covers the fight between Matsumoto and Antonio and why it finally delivers on a more inventive form of AI vs AI combat, dignity and the lack thereof when it comes to AI, why Episode 11 is deeply worrisome and may be a sign the show is falling apart, and also the fact that Vivy got shot in the boob.

LET'S- wait shit, wrong game.

Ahem, anyway! Warui Deshou's top tier podcast line Deshou The Third is back for another set, this time with Winter 2021 comedy harem life lesson Smash Brothers inspired show Bottom Tier Character Tomozaki!

Join TheSubtleDoctor and Shadon as they analyze and commentate on this show's strengths and weaknesses, such as the distinction between the show's depiction of social tools and skills versus their usage for facile ends, Tackfam as a wasted opportunity and it's peripheral use as a game in the fiction of the world, the show's questionable fanservice, some genuinely authentic moments of character interaction, "comedy" and more!

There is no fate but what we make, and so our Patrons have thusly chosen! For this round of Second Stream we'll be covering Vivy: Fluorite Eye's Song, a show that seems to be a smooth blend of retro and high concept sci-fi ideas, a murderous teddy bear, Sharon Apple from Macross, Nier Automata, Terminator 2 and a touch of Portal thrown in. And so far, it goes down well!

Join Shads and The Subtle Doctor as they cover the first five episodes of this rare specimen of a modern anime and dive head first into topics such as the ethical conflict between Vivy and unbearable AI Matsumoto, the show's emphasis on physical rather than digital violence, the well worn themes of AI going rogue and the fault of humankind in doing so, why Stephen Marchant should be in the English dub, satire of theme parks and more!

This is one such time as we dig into the Mobile Suit Gundam 10th Anniversary OVA: War In The Pocket!

Join Doc, Shads and returning special guest Alex Smit as they discuss various topics like War in the Pocket's criticism of unfettered consumption of violent media, the privilege of first world children in not knowing the horrors of war, comparisons to old soap operas, questionable hamburger metaphors, world building, the perspectives of someone new to Gundam versus those familiar with it, and more!

It's been over a year since we last hung out with the Given boys and demand for us to cover the movie once it was released has been ongoing ever since. Well, the film is now in the wild and thus it's time we fulfilled that promise!

Shadon and The Subtle Doctor pick up their mics once again to talk shop about Given, covering topics such as the transition from show to movie format and what that entails, the focus on Akihiko and Haruki over Uenoyama and Mafuyu, Ugetsu possibly being a devourer of souls, cinematography and storyboarding, badly timed phone calls and more!

This bonus podcast is free for everyone to enjoy. To those who have provided feedback, comments and support for our coverage of Given as a series both while it was airing and since, this one is for you. <3

We had a gap week between the Akudama Drive finale and our first Wonder Egg Priority podcast and so myself and Doc decided that rather than spending our time productively or even healthily, we chose to watch not one but FOUR animated turds that got released in Winter 2021.

Join TheSubtleDoctor and a very weary Shadon as they cover the first episodes of Scar of the Praeter, EX-ARM, Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation and Redo of a Healer! Witness the exasperation at the very worst anime tropes and clichés! Marvel at two men's resilience in the face of misogyny and paedophilia apologia masquerading as anime! Gasp at verbal descriptions of EX-ARM, an anime made in Source Filmmaker on a 1950s television by a yodelling redneck hermit!

This episode is available to everyone and anyone, because sharing our misery only seemed fair.

Join The Subtle Doctor, aka the Negotiator, and Shadon, aka the Drunkard, as they discuss the show's construction, what defines cyberpunk as a genre of fiction, how to write a heist story, favourite moments and characters and if they would allow the Doctor to perform any sort of medical procedure on them!

TheSubtleDoctor and Shadon take a trip to the Goto Islands to watch the journey of one master calligrapher Seishuu Handa as he does some soul searching after deciding the best response to criticism from an elderly man was to give him a mean right hook. Oops.

In this episode we discuss Barakamon as a story of personal and artistic failure as well as the growth in both areas that can come from healthy reflection, how comedy is constructed, does Barakamon have a message that escaping to the country is always the right way to go, pilgrimages, and talk about the characters and our favorite moments with them!

Since our $5 Patreon tier is such a steal, we felt it was time to bring a new series to Warui Deshou to cover more shows that you want us to talk about, and we've started off Deshou The Third with a real showstopper; Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu season one!

Join The Subtle Doctor and Shadon as they talk about this amazing show from 2016 and how it handles direction and storyboarding to sell the art of rakugo, the complicated relationship between Sukeroku & Kikuhiko, a brief touch on gender roles, pacing and the distinct absence of sword canes!

NOTE: There are minor audio issues from approx 45:00 - 1:45:00 with sound dropping out from Doc. These should be minor but FYI and apologies, they will be fixed for next time.

Special thanks to NavyCherub for requesting this one!

Join Shadon and The Subtle Doctor on a long form discussion and analysis of the 2006 Ryousuke Takahashi ONA Flag, a refreshingly different anime experience that utilizes first person perspectives throughout it's runtime to examine the nature of warfare and journalism. Expect discussions of giant robot minutiae and lore as a tool for dramatic tension, divergent story lines, the positive and negative elements of wartime journalism, why entertainment may not necessarily need to conventionally entertain and is Flag a competent piece of anti-war fiction? Also, is Shadon really dead inside or not?

Find out as we cover this truly unique tale of bloodshed and civil war caught through the looking glass of two journalist's cameras in Flag!

Request Line is where Viking Experience ($5) tier Patrons can request specific shows for us to cover and is available to all Patrons of KanaMoney ($3) tier or higher.

It's our decade-in-review podcast! We wanted to accomplish a couple of different things with this one: (a) reflect broadly on the decade as a whole rather than just doing another top ten list and (b) feature a variety of perspectives from all sorts of folks in order to better accomplish (a). We feel we've succeeded!

Audio issues from the last version should be resolved. Please let us know if there are others.

Doc plays MC asking 12 questions about the decade in anime to a whole passel of Friends Of The Pod including:

Alexander Smit
Danny & K
David Majors
Emily Rand
Grant The Thief
James Beckett

Huge thanks to all of these wonderful friends for helping make this podcast special. Give them all a follow, a listen, a read, etc. Special thanks to Anime82's Regan Strongblood for the idea for this format.

Here are the questions along with time codes:

Introduce yourself/yourselves! Talk about what you do and where to find your work online. - 00:01:34
When you look back over the decade, what do you think were the most significant trends in anime (the content, not the industry)? Were these positive, negative, or a mix? - 00:06:02
What, beyond the trends, do you think has defined anime of this decade? - 00:25:53
In terms of the quality of anime content, are the 2010s better or worse than previous decades? - 00:37:44
How has the way you consume anime changed over the decade? Are there any unintended drawbacks you’ve found to these changes? - 00:49:04
What are the most significant changes you’ve observed in anime fandom (domestic or foreign, whichever you know best) over the decade? - 01:06:51

It's Doc's first patron request audio essay! And...it's become a multi-part series! In setting out to review Kino's Journey, Doc realized there was so much in the very first episode, that he had to make a thing about just that. At the time, he had Evangelion on the brain as well, and this is the result!

Special thanks to Emily for requesting Kino's Journey for me to review via Patreon.

Happy Alita-versary!

Doc and Shadon watched the film for the first time and have a lot to say about it. They discuss the setting, world-building, characters, themes, adaptational choices, mood and more. How did they feel about the film? Click play, and find out!

The fellas are getting back into the podcast groove, and they've got plenty of topics to discuss this week. Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash is a fascinating anime because of its strong choices. Superman films CAN work if you take the right approach. The Ghost In The Shell manga is pretty different than its anime adaptations, and this is cool and good. Shadon once wanted to write a sprawling sci-fi epic series but realizes he made some mistakes along the way.

Well. Well. Well. After showing a few glimpses of promise, this show returns to its worst. At best, the writing, pacing, and humor of this episode were just plain old bad. At worst, the show comes off as transphobic yet again. Either way, the boys did not have a good time.

This is our third and final Christmas Ghibli of 2019! We hope you’ve enjoyed this series, as doing it has been an absolute blast. As usual, Doc & Shadon sit down and discuss their thoughts on a Ghibli for two and a half hours. It’s a good time!

We talk about the creatives involved with the movie, mostly Hayao Miyazaki this time out. We gathered up some interesting quotes and fun anecdotes to share. Then, we move on to praise the Joe Hisaishi and the music, the English dub penned by Neil Gaiman, characters Ashitaka and Lady Eboshi, empathy, villains, living in our present, compromised reality, and many many more topics.

Hello everyone! It’s round two of our Christmas Ghibli’s with The Tale of Princess Kaguya, a much more recent entry into their filmography with a number of substantial differences in it’s production and time of release, but nonetheless leaving quite a mark on myself and Doc.

Myself and Doc are hardly experts on, well, anything, so we find a certain trepidation in covering Ghibli works given the abundance of critical literature on them, and Kaguya is no exception as one of their most recent works. Nonetheless, we march on and talk at length about the film’s production and background before tackling the film’s themes and ideas on identity, roles, the defiance of simply living and much more!

Happy Holidays to all of our wonderful Patrons who make these podcasts possible. You’re all awesome!

Welcome to the first episode of the first ever Christmas Ghiblis! We’re so excited to share our love and admiration for this studio, these creators and these films with all of you. We subconsciously associate the holiday season with these movies in our minds, so this felt like the right time to do these episodes. Creating something like the Christmas Ghiblis felt a bit intimidating, as we are far from experts. However, in addition to our cursory research, we also bring to the table our own unique emotional experiences with the films, and we believe these are valuable in their own right, as well as entertaining.

Doc and Shadon deep dive into the first film produced under the Studio Ghibli name, Laputa: Castle In The Sky. We talk about creators Hayao Miyazaki, Toshio Suzuki, and Joe Hisaishi, and what these guys have to say about the film. We also discuss what we think the film’s core themes to be such as: humanity’s sense of discovery, a turn to the post-modern, the moral ambiguity of technology, believing in order to understand, hiddenness, and more! Enjoy, and happy holidays!

Fujiko Mine, Mine Fujiko. Teacher, resistance fighter, consort, betrothed, spy, thief. Is she all of these things? Or none of them? Just who is the Woman Named Fujiko Mine? A slippery question, but Warui Deshou never turns down a challenge.

Helmed creatively by Sayo Yamamoto (whom you might know from a popular recent anime about some ice skaters or something), Lupin III: The Woman Named Fujiko Mine was created to celebrate the franchise’s 40th anniversary while also taking it in a direction it was not particularly known for: more noir and supremely sexy and confident in itself, not to mention it did not focus on Lupin himself, but rather a character who had been ill defined previously.

With special guest Alexander Smit, join Warui Deshou as we discuss topics raised within the show such as sexuality and gender identity, and also the anime itself. Oh, and we also go off topic into things such as bat nipples and cold ones in the shower. As you do.

With special thanks to Alex for coming on the show and providing his insights, Grant The Thief for his assistance in the “Shady Dealings – The BLT” outro, and to BBB/Jahvin Baxter of Yakage Force Studios for his incredible Sheryl Nome by way of Pulp Fiction album art.

It’s been a long time coming. We recorded this show back in August. We have no excuse…but better late than never! And, at least this podcast is about an excellent anime, Leiji Matsumoto and Daft Punk’s sci-fi masterpiece Interstella 5555.

In this first part of our Interstella show, we talk about what the thing is, how it came together, our personal histories with it, and some high-level, spoiler-free stuff we really really like about it. If you’ve never seen this anime, we hope we can sell you on it, and if you have seen it, then we hope you’ll hear about it ONE MORE TIME.

Also: what is the best scene in anime involving a shark? Who was the actress that inspired Leiji Matsumoto’s iconic female character design? Did Shadon spoil Harry Potter for you? Let us know.
