Episode 25 - Haikyuu Gerrymandering


Crunchyroll recently released electoral-style maps breaking down the most popular new anime in each Canadian province and US state, and man were there some notable differences.

Canadian map: www.crunchyroll.com%2Fanime-feature%2F2016%2F10%2F30-1%2Ffeature-crunchyrolls-most-popular-fall-anime-by-provinceterritory

Also, in the off chance that you don't know what a fujoshi is, you might want to do some reading, because this term describes Canadian fandom pretty well: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaoi_fandom#Fujoshi

Episode 24 - The Secret Path: A Remedy For Maple Washing


You must watch The Secret Path. Directed by Gord Downie of The Tragically Hip, this animated feature recently broadcast on CBC tells the story of Chanie Wenjack who escaped from a residential school in 1966 in a way that no other medium could. Ian Whitcombe joins me to explain why.

The Secret Path can be viewed here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGd764YU9yc

We also take a little time to discuss different subjects, including the end of shomi and the new Escaflowne release from FUNimation.

Episode 7: Can We Just Agree That Anime is More Popular Here?


Mike Toole swings by to help determine why anime is more popular in Canada than it is in other regions like the United States. I don't think we find a definitive answer, but along the way we talk about Otakon, the 80s Astro Boy dub that aired on Global, World Masterpiece Theatre on Radio-Canada, and that elusive Dragon Ball Kai Ocean dub.
