OSMcast! Show #158: Chihayafuru 3

When I listen up at
The wide-stretched plain of podcasts,
Is the audio the same
That peach on Mount Momocon
In the land of Taiiku?

We never thought we would have the excuse to talk about the anime Chihayafuru again, but here we are! Based off the manga by Yuki Suetsugu, we are talking about the third season of Chihayafuru, animated by studio Madhouse, directed by Morio Asaka. Joining Basil this time is once again Jess from Momocon, as well as first time guest Kory from the Taiiku and Manga In Your Ears podcasts! 

OSMnotes

Get some Chihayafuru in your life! Streaming all of anime? It’s on Crunchyroll! And if you want to order the first two seasons of anime on disc, Sentai Filmworks has got you covered. Oh, would you like the manga? Kodansha has got that going on!

Thank you Jess and Kory for coming on! Please do check out the Taiiku and Manga In Your Ears podcasts if you haven’t yet, they are swell.

And while you cannot check out Momocon in person this year, you can check them out online! On Thursdays and Saturdays for the next few weeks from 7pm to 10pm EST via their Twitch channel, they’ll be playing some of the best moments from past Momocons. And maybe even some cool newer stuff soon as well! Oh, and buy some sweet Momocon swag, while you still can!

OSMinterview! Deva Marie on 4/15/2020

Our boy John is back with yet another amazing interview! This time, he sits down virtually with the wondrous Deva Marie. You may recognize her voice best as the role of Flayn, from Fire Emblem: Three Houses!

OSMnotes

We want to thank Deva Marie once again for taking the time to chat with us! Anna probably put it best:

And hey, we know this year is a tough time. One of the ways it’s been tough is that a lot of us go to cons throughout the year, and right now there are no cons. That’s a bummer! So Momocon is trying their best to keep that spirit alive through the internet.

On Thursdays and Saturdays for the next few weeks from 7pm to 10pm EST via their Twitch channel, they’ll be playing some of the best moments from past Momocons. And maybe even some cool newer stuff soon as well!

And speaking of Momocon, next week’s show is already in the bag! We’ll be talking about the latest season of Chihayafuru, with Jess of Momofame and Kory from the Taiiku and Manga in Your Ears podcasts. Hope to see you back!

OSMcast! Show #157: Questions from Listeners Like You, COVID-19 Edition

WELP. This has sure been a thing. You see, the OSMcast has always been a “folks in person in front of a microphone” kind of podcast. With world events being what they are, that wasn’t gonna fly anymore. So we decided to try something new. Recording via the Internet. Which is very exciting!

So, we tested our recording with asking, receiving, and now answering questions  from Listeners Like You! As well as some Moments of OSM. Hope you all enjoy!

OSMnotes

We also want to give big props to our wondrous comrades in arms, Third Impact Anime! Not only are they an awesome podcast and blog in their own right, but they also host an outstanding Discord! Which everyone should join and talk anime and video games and other things with us. Also whenever Denpa puts out a book, just buy it!

OSMcast! Show #156: Ride Your Wave

Oh, hello there! Fancy world we live in now. It’s sure has had a lot of ups and downs lately!

Also… other things.

OSMnotes

OSMcast! Show #155: Moments of TN OSM (Seishun Con 2020)

Hey folks today is Super Tuesday so if you are reading this today and you are in a state that’s doing that whole voting thing then please GO VOTE! And while you are waiting in line at the polls, we have an episode for you to listen to! Recorded at Seishun Con 2020, we kick back with the Tennessee Crew and talk about, well… all sorts of things.

OSMnotes

And here are some of those things! Also known as Time Cues:

Boy, this episode sure went places, didn’t it? Also please go vote. And our hearts and thoughts are out for all our Tennessee peoples who go caught in the terrible tornadoes that just hit the state today. If you can help at all, we have heard that The Community Foundation is a great place to donate to.

OSMcast! Show #154: OSMcast & Akihabara Renditions @ Seishun Con 2020

So this past few weekends ago, Seishun Con happened. And it was fun! One of the fun things was yet another attempt at an OSMcast LIVE! show. This time, we planned on doing a podcast about Crusher Joe with our pals over at Akihabara Renditions. Only… Funny thing! Communication failed, and half of us did not watch Crusher Joe in time for this panel. So, this is the audio you get instead. 

Next time, a slightly more planned episode recorded at Seishun Con, along with our Tennessee compatriots. 

Touched by a Duelist EP001: No matter what everybody says, we’re fearsome Blue-Eyes White Dragons!

Whoa what’s this craziness this is not the normal OSMcast?!?  Nope this is a whole new OSMcast-produced thing, we’re calling Touched by a Duelist! It’s a new weekly, show where we are covering the anime series Touched and Yu-Gi-Oh!

Touch being the baseball anime, based on the manga by Mitsuru Adachi, and Yu-Gi-Oh! being the card battling anime, based on the manga by Kazuki Takahashi.

This episode we are covering the Touch episode 1, “No matter what everybody says, we’re twins!!” And the Yu–Gi-Oh! episode 1, The Fearsome Blue-Eyes White Dragon. 

OSMcast! Show #153: Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Accidentally continuing on a spooky-ish track*, we are gathered tonight to release a podcast about demons! And slayers! Of, well, demons! It’s an anime and manga called Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. The manga is by Koyoharu Gotouge, with the anime adaption by Ufotable.

*Clearly you can tell by how echo-y it is. Because it’s spooky, not because it was much a more open room this time or anything…

OSMnotes

As of this recording, the anime is out there streaming courtesy of Aniplex. So you can find it on Crunchyroll, Funimation, and Hulu. The manga is released by Viz, and they can be bought via volumes either physically or digitally. Or, you can stream the volumes on your electronic device via their Shonen Jump Plus app. But while you are buffering, have some Time Cues:

We’re also going to be at AWA! Well Basil, Anna, and Dylan are. We’ve got the run down on the panels over here at itsbasiltime dot coms. Hope to see you there!

And you are, or even if you aren’t come hang out with us on Discord! Well, it’s the Third Impact Anime‘s Discord. But we’re there all the same.

OSMquest! Playing The Beast with Mr Creepy Pasta @ Hamacon 10

Feeling up for something spooky? Well we have the podcast for you! In the last of our Hamacon 10 podcasts, here is another OSMquest guest starring the Master of Decreepitude himself, Mr Creepy Pasta! Or is it MrCreepyPasta? Either way, we RPGed it up with him! Creepily.

OSMnotes

Oh no, a cliffhanger?!? Sadly. sometimes you can’t always get a full game into an interview slot. But what can you do? Invite the OSMcast and Mr Creepypasta to your next con! I dunno about the Creepmeister, but the OSMcast comes pretty cheap. 

The name of the game is The Beast, made by Grant Howitt. It is a game where you are monster hunter hunting the monsters. Somewhere in Eastern Europe, because that’s where all the best monsters are. You can ask anyone, they will tell you this. Speaking of things you can do, you can find all of Grant’s wonderful games at https://gshowitt.itch.io/.

OSMinterview! Dorothy Fahn on 10/07/2019

Sometimes, you get interviews at a con. But sometimes, you get them straight from the source.  You get some of that good stuff. Fresh, uncut, farm to table, pure internet kind of interview. For this episode, our wonderful master interviewer John sat down with the amazing Dorothy Fahn.

Lately, you may have heard her as the voice of Mercedes in Fire Emblem: Three Houses. But she has lent her voice to many characters, like Meryl Stryfe in Trigun, or Melody from the latest take of Hunter x Hunter. Or perhaps, all the Digimon? She’s been a few (Lalamon, Sunflowmon, Lilamon, and Rosemon)!

OSMnotes!

We wanted to thank Dorothy for her time with us. It was our pleasure and we hope everyone enjoyed listening!
