OSMinterview! Xanthe Huynh @ MTAC Score!

So last month, MTAC finally got the chance to rise from the depths and appear once again as a majestic … well, convention! Ok look as well all know it’s been a minute since a whole con thing as happened and it’s hard getting back on this whole forced metaphor of a bicycle thing. At any rate, a fantastic time. While we were there, we had the wonderful opportunity to talk to some amazing folks.

This time we got the chance to chat with Xanthe Huynh! She’s a voice actress who has been in roles like Menma (Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day), Palla-Palla (Sailor Moon SuperS), Yuna Yuki (Yuki Yuna is a Hero), Hanayo Koizumi (Love Live School Idol Project), Maquia (Maquia: When the Promised Flower Blooms), and a whole lot more.

We wanted to thank both MTAC and Xanthe for the chance to chat! You can also find her all sorts of the places like such as:

And you can find MTAC a bunch of places online, too:

OSMcast! Show #184: Centaurworld (Season One)

14 years ago, a podcast started. Perhaps you have heard of it? It’s called the OSMcast, your podcast for everything awesome. 14 years later, against all odds, they posted a new episode coincidently on the same day. And that episode? This one. The one you are listening to right now! And this time we are talking about Centaurworld, a cool cartoon for cool people that like cool things created by Megan Nicole Dong, with songs by Dong and Dominic Bisignano. It’s a Netflix show so chances are you can go watch it immediately after listening to this episode.

OSMnotes

14 years. Wow. Also, yikes. But wow. Here’s to 14 more? I guess we should point out that this episode was recorded in the distant past, aka in 2021. A month or two before the second chunk of episodes came out for Centaurworld. Therefore, one could imagine that another episode covering the second half will happen. One could. Alas, we also never finished the Legend of Korra, Hellsing Ultimate, and shoot even Steven Universe had a movie and sequel short series after we thought we had wrapped that up. Then again, we did power through all that Evangelion! So hey! It could happen. But now, Time Cues: 

And as always, feel free to leave us a review on Apple Podcasts! And if you still use Spotify, go ahead and get on that mobile device and throw us some five starts there too. Tell your friends! As well, just like we mentioned in the OSMplugs, you can also join the Discord and support us on Patreon!

OSMcast! Show #183: Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit

It’s Christmas in Febua- We mean March! Yes, that’s right. You heard us. Or rather, this is our 2021 AGC Secret Santa episode. Only three months late. For us, this is pretty timely. So, what are we talking about this time? Why it’s the anime Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit! It was animated by Production I.G directed by Kenji Kamiyama (back when he did awesome stuff), based on a novel series by Nahoko Uehashi.

OSMnotes

Speaking of timely, this episode was recorded in January so things may not be as rosy as we hoped they would be. If you are interested in donating to help support Ukraine, Zepla on twitter has tweeted out several ways you can help. Also, today they announced that Crunchyroll gets to absorb Funimation as a treat, so if you have a Funimation Now subscription you should probably cancel that soon. But don’t worry, Moribito is on HiDIVE! Which is now owned by AMC Networks. Anyway, have some Time Cues:

OSMcast! Show #182: Evangelion: 3.0+1.01 Thrice Upon a Time

Well, here it is. Three interviews, and now four episodes later, we are now at the current conclusion of the OSM of Evangelion Project. (We say current, because you never know when John will stealth drop yet another interview out of the blue!) We have talked about the original show, the End of Eva movies, the previous Rebuilds, and now this. The final Rebuild of Evangelion film, Evangelion: 3.0+1.01 Thrice Upon a Time. Bye bye all of Evangelion OSMcast!s (for now)! 

OSMnotes

While sure maybe we mention Centaurworld was our next episode at the end, and it was the next show we recorded… Our next release should theoretically be us finally catching up with our Anime Secret Santa episode all about Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit! So until then, have some Time Cues:

OSMinterview! Kira Buckland on 12/09/2021

Happy December! Hope everyone is doing well. Maybe catching up on some Netflix, perchance? Possibly enjoying the latest installment of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, Stone Ocean. If so, we got some great news for you. We have a very recently done OSMinterview, where John gets to talk with one amazing Kira Buckland! Who is, coincidentally, the voice of Jolyne Cujoh. But has also portrayed voices of many others, like Mitsuri Kanroji in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, 2B in Nier: Automata, Trucy Wright in the Ace Attorney series, and ton of others.

It’s November and you know what that means! More Evangelion? No problem! We here at the OSMcast, your podcast for everything Awesome Evangelion are here for you. Hot & Ready with yet another toasty extra crispy episode, all about the third movie in the Rebuild of Evangelion series! Now that’s dedication. 

OSMnotes

At this point you know the drill. Patreon. Discord. Time Cues. That’s the stuff.

OSMcast! Show #180: Evangelion: 2.22 You Can (Not) Advance

Would you believe it, another Evangelion podcast!? It’s true! Originally, the plan was to do a podcast on just 1.11 and 2.22 together. But we soon discovered by the time we were done talking about 1.11… We had already spent a whole podcast on it! We just could not advance to talk about Eva 2.22. Who would have thought? Anyhow, enjoy yet another OSMcast!, where we talk about the second movie in the Rebuild of Evangelion series. 

OSMnotes

Boy Square-Enix keeps on wanting to hang out with us! Last episode, it came out the day Sora is announced for Smash. Today, the Final Fantasy XIV Endwalker Media Tour’s embargo has lifted so there is a ton of great video footage of the new jobs and things out. But over here? It’s all LCL up in here. Well, that and Time Cues:

OSMcast! Show #179: Evangelion: 1.11 You Are (Not) Alone

September 1, 2007. The Earth changed. It experienced a cataclysmic event that is known known as Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone. Then later it hit DVD and Blu-Ray and was retitled as Evangelion: 1.01 then later still, 1.11. At the time of this podcast, it is now still 1.11, but is now on Amazon Prime Video. It still believed to (not) be alone. As it has the other three movies also on Amazon Prime Video. Chances are by the time you are approaching this episode, you know about Eva’s whole deal. Nevertheless, please enjoy this podcast in the OSM of Evangelion series.

OSMnotes

So Sora’s in Smash, huh? Well that is a thing that also happened today. Not that we knew that going into this podcast. Also, not that would have changed anything! Or that you should join the Discord or support us on Patreon. Nor would it change these Time Cues:

OSMinterview! Amanda Winn Lee on 9/17/2021

The OSM of Evangelion just keeps on rolling on as this whole interview train continues! Before we pull into the station and start releasing the episodes on the Rebuild movies, John once again surprises us in just the best ways. This time, he sits down at the virtual table with the returning champion and all-around treasure, Amanda Winn Lee. You may know her best as the voice of Rei Ayanami in both the original ADV Films dub of Neon Genesis Evangelion and the End of Evangelion, along with the Amazon Prime Video dubs of the Rebuild Movies. However, she is also the voice of Yukiko Amagi from Persona 4, Rally Vincent from Gunsmith Cats, and just all around a great mom. And finally, someone that can explain whatever the hell Delta 8 is! (Does contain Evangelion 1.0+3.0 Thrice Upon Some Spoilers)

OSMnotes

We want to thank Amanda Winn Lee once again for taking the time to chat with us! We also want to say hey, if you have some donating cash for a good cause, please check out the Lady Eva Pilot Halloween Slumber Party. Amanda Winn Lee, Tiffany Grant, and Deneen Melody are getting together for an epic live stream event to support the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Plus if you donate $100, you get a signed poster, probably!

And if you ever needed a list of things that she does that you can click on? We got you covered.

OSMinterview! Deneen Melody on 9/13/2021

So there you are, chillin’ on the roof of the school, as you do. Just going about your day, getting the latest instalment of the The OSM of Evangelion series prepped for release. Then, out of the blue, comes in something just incredibly unexpected yet entirely welcomed. Just right on top of you. That was John yesterday with a fresh OSMinterview in virtual hand. He got the chance to talk with just the delightful Deneen Melody, who you may know now as the voice of Mari Illustrious-Makinami from the Amazon Prime dubs of the Rebuild of Evangelion films. But can also hear her as Zoe Lee aka Vesperia* in Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir, May in Pokemon Masters EX, and in all sorts of things! (Does contain Evangelion 1.0+3.0 Thrice Upon Some Spoilers)

*Ok so maybe not that Vesperia. But as far as we can tell, Deneen Melody is pretty magical and is also a legit faerie… So maybe she is actually that Vesperia, too?

OSMnotes

We want to thank Deneen Melody once again for taking the time to chat with us! And heartily and emphatically encourage you to check out her Twitter and website.
