KFR 125: The History of Gainax - Studio in Focus

Summer is here and a new anime season is knocking at the door!

This Summer season is a mixed bag with returning big hitters, unexpected tales and another surge of isekai stories.

We’ve picked 12 shows from this season the team is checking out, plus our favourites from the past season!

All this plus the low down on the Gainax bankruptcy, changes at Studio 3hz, Anime Sequels and manga news!

Oh - and a tip for cooking Chicken Katsu in this block buster episode!

Are you in Perth or Sydney?

Make sure to check out Hoshi Events two upcoming events for Australia’s best anime night out!

Hoshi's To the Moon event is on July 5th 2024 in Perth at the WA Museum: http://www.hoshievents.com.au/event-calendar/hoshi-to-the-moon/

Hoshi's SMASH! Pre-Party is being held on July 19th 2024 at Home The Venue in Sydney: http://www.hoshievents.com.au/event-calendar/after-dark-sydney/

We're not directly affiliated with Hoshi (though they are our friends) and don't receive anything from you attending these events - financial or otherwise.

We just think they hold some of the best nights out for the anime and cosplay community with a safe and inclusive environment :)
