Episode 131 - Rotten Ralph

02/22/25 • 61 min

On this week's episode, we encounter an utterly contemptible protagonist in a little-known stop-motion co-production with Britain and Italy which left us utterly charmed. A sharp, abrasive art style for a sharp, abrasive character that we wound up watching via a scuffed cam version on YouTube. There is nothing more fittingly Rotten for ol' Ralph.

Previous Episode

Episode 130 - Mythic Warriors

We are back in some familiar territory - a shoddy, obscure Nelvana production (#SaveNelvana) and a radical adaptation of Greek Mythology made for children. It'sMythic Warriors: Guardians of the Legend -contractually obligated fodder produced through a brief lucrative partnership with television network CBS. Filling out an entire Saturday morning cartoon block requires a lot of man hours and animation, and so inevitably, some stuff might not be quite up to standard. But god damn it, Nelvana needs to cash in on the success of Disney'sHercules (1997).

Episode covered for the podcast is Episode 6 "Persephone and the Winter Seeds." Written by Peter Colley. Directed by Jim Craig. Original airdate December 12, 1998.

Episode 132 - CanaDUB: Nana

Sorry for the delay! We are going to blame the tariffs because why not.

We have returned to the realm of Canadian dubbed anime with a fabulous punk rock classic of growing up and heartbreak between young women who meet by happenstance. Ai Yazawa's NANA has endured in popularity since it's premiere in 2006, and part of that enduring popularity has to do with the pitch perfect dub produced by our friends at Ocean Productions.

Episode covered for the podcast was Episode 1 "Prologue: Nana K. and Nana O." Written by Tomoko Konparu and Directed by Morio Asaka, Ryōsuke Nakamura. Original airdate April 5, 2006.
