Nerdom and Other Nonsense Anime Podcast #072 - Rascal Chats with Bathing Waifus

Leo, Bcom and Kat are back this week to discuss week 10 of the Fall 2018 anime season. We kick it off with some nonsense, like Bcom watching a famous Japanese movie from 1983 about husky sled dogs surviving the treacherous landscape of Antarctica. Kat had to survive holiday parties, and a dairy awkward moment with her friend, and Leo had to survive his deepest dental appointment yet. We move on to anime, and Kat channels her inner Gordon Ramsay and lambasts Asuka for trying to make a chikuwa cake in The Girl in Twilight. We debate crushed vs. mashed potatoes in Golden Kamuy and Bcom can’t keep straight whether Anji Toni is blind or deaf. Leo laments Kana’s lost waifu status with her lax cooking skills, and also theorizes about the extraordinarily high number of people fainting in Japanese anime this season. In the latest episode of Rascal Sits While Girls Bathe, we argue about the necessity of the baller idol performance in the episode, and also figure out the perfect ending for the show. Banana Fish continues to use rape as a narrative crutch, while simultaneously getting incredibly cheesy with its drama. We’re all incensed that Yuugiri seems to have been snubbed in getting a backstory arc in Zombie Land Saga, in favor a frankly pretty boring setup episode for Sakura’s arc. Kat’s fury at a new character named Pantaloons in Karakuri Circus leads Bcom to a discovery of the Italian theatrical roots for the puppets’ naming scheme. We wrap up with Bloom Into You where a friend from Yuu’s past shows us how much Yuu’s outlook on life has changed since meeting Touko.
