Episode 28: Got Angst?

Monday, November 27th, 2006 by NinJaSistah

Once again, we have a new podcast episode for you... this time it's number 28.

This week the ESH gals focus in on a theme of angst... in anime, manga, and video games. Angst in anime, manga, and video games... imagine that? From the bad depiction of angst in the anime series Marmalade Boy, to MagicMysticGrl's recount of angst in .Hack//G.U. and then finally NinJaSistah's take on the PS3 & Wii ebay shenanigans, the girls really cover the spread on this topic.

Yeah, I said it. You enjoy it, right now.

Episode 27: Gift Guide-O-Rama

Monday, November 20th, 2006 by NinJaSistah

It's new podcast episode day again... this time, it's the super "buy me stuff" edition.

Well, it's not the final "buy me stuff" edition as we will undoubtedly have a few more of these types of shows between now and New Years Day, but it's a good way to start off the holiday shopping season.

Pandalicious pimps Angel Sanctuary and Final Fantasy XII while MagicMysticGrl shines the "perfect gift" light on the works of Sang Sun Park with special emphasis on texture in manga. [Or Manwha if you are a purist] Le Oro gets in the mix as well, then NinJaSistah rounds out the show with a spotlight on the movie Boiler Room, the PS2 video game God of War, and the XB360 title Viva Piñata. Grab a cup of egg nog and enjoy Episode 27: Gift Guide-O-Rama!

Episode 26: All Amp'd Up, And Nowhere To Go

Monday, November 13th, 2006 by NinJaSistah

Once again, it's new podcast day here at ESH, and this one is a doosy!

Poor Pandalicious and MagicMysticGrl had to deal with NinJaSistah after she had downed an Amp tall boy and a can of Coke... pray for them y'all!

Seriously though, this week the ladies cover everything [and I do mean everything] from the latest Candy Bitch, to an introduction to American manga in the form of Death At Deaths Door, first findings on Final Fantasy XII and the evolution of gaming through console input devices. I won't even mention the Care Bear references, the WoWalicious sweepstakes winner, or why caffeine is good for you. Just try and figure out where you stand on the punny vs. birate debate. This is one of our longer podcast episodes folks, but it's funny as hell. Just listen to it already.

And congrats to our latest Candy Bitch TimboSteve!
