The Ikigai Podcast: Recent Episodes
Ikigai Studios
We all got to see Shinkai's newest film in theatres and oh boy do we have a lot to say! We will be talking about the film with a non-spoiler and spoiler section. We absolutely was mindblown by the quality of this film and if you're looking for a movie to watch we hope that this will encourage you to watch Suzume!
As the Scuffed Awards has just passed, we will be looking at an actual award show with a production behind it. We talk about certain categories and what we believe to be a show that deserves to win anime of the year!
As the start of the fall season begins, we have finished and started a lot of new anime. We wanted to talk about what we are looking forward to this season and what you guys should be watching! Of course, you can't have an Ikigai Podcast without some heavy topic included too!
With October being the second year anniversary of the podcast we decided to celebrate it by... Never mind, we have to deal with midterms! Though it is an unfortunate way to celebrate, we do discuss our future plans and the momentum of our situation.
Another podcast down in the books and our last episode before our two-year anniversary! We enjoyed our previous in-person podcast and decided to do another one with a somewhat better set! With college coming back into session we talk about our experience so far and what've been doing!
Off of a whim, we decided to do a podcast in-person with a scuffed setup. It may reward those who wanted to see a podcast last month. Due to a rough schedule, we couldn't do one in July. However, we have a lot to talk about and exciting new topics to dive into. Hope you enjoy it!
With graduation passing and summertime growing near, the boys finally return with a podcast episode. Graduation was a blast and now we hit the sun! However, since we don't go out much, we can only talk about what we know best. Anime!
Graduation and the end of the school year are just around the corner. Finals and other obligations have taken priority and made this episode very last minute. Not having a concrete topic in mind, we bounce around ideas revolving around graduation and how we act. Anime is one of the major factors in our lives that has both changed and ruined our social lives. We read too much romance manga and watch too much romance anime.
Looks like another anime-based episode for once! Today we discuss Jujutsu Kaisen and how we feel about the show. This isn't a rating for the show, just a discussion about it. On top of that, we share our feelings about Shaft's newest project: RWBY: Ice Queendom. The episode was intended for JJK, but ultimately it also became about RWBY.
After 18 months of having a podcast, we have finally all watched a single anime. Odd Taxi was an interesting show that we enjoyed. We wanted to take the time to talk about Odd Taxi and how we felt about the anime. Being an "anime" podcast and having watched it recently, this was the topic that we decided on. Maybe in the future, we will watch a show together and have an occasional podcast like this. Anyways if you haven't already go and watch some Odd Taxi.
Last year, we had a podcast with Ryan. This year we decided to bring Ryan back for another February discussion! As the title suggests, the king is back! However, instead of talking about romance, we wanted to talk about Lunar New Year! Like always, we do pivot the podcast to anime, but hopefully, our party stories were enough to make you guys awake.
With 2021 gone and dusted, the New Year begins. The success of Brian's GUP analysis has made 2022 a great success so far. Even though the year has just started hype about the future is in the air. We discuss about GUP and our next steps.
As December rolls around and the holidays start to come in, the Ikigai boys are not feeling too hot. With finals around the corner and the anticipations with up-and-coming projects, the boys are feeling the pressure. That's how life be sometimes, but we keep moving forward.
