Once in while, it's hard to tell whether Japanese creators are being ironic or just creating homages. The Magical Boy anime Cute High Earth Defense Club is ready to watch in its one-season entirety on Crunchyroll...but why would you do that to yourself? Other than its surprising darkness in its humor on love and death, this parody of magical girl anime is not as fan-servicy as Free, but just as ridiculous and light-hearted. |

Is your Fandom the Real Thing? Ikuhara's works have been tackled on "We are the Geek" before, but never this deep. Prepare to dive into the bait-and-switch honeypot that's neither fanservice nor horror, neither direct or metaphorical, forever separated by the Wall of Severance. It's YuriKuma, available on FUNimation and Hulu. And at 12 episodes, it's a tightly wound ball of sexual frustration and symbolic bear slaughter. Where do you even begin to analyze a transcendental anime like this? Well, to the fans, obviously. LINKS:

Judith, Natalie and Yo sit down for a long talk on Steven Universe, it's tiny conspiracy theories, origins, executions, and anime homages. How does a show flip gender stereotypes on their heads? By making the audience do a headstand of expectations. Steven Universe nurtures a young boy of mixed human/magic/space alien gem origins to becoming a healer and leader. Action, humor, pathos and song; it's the show you didn't know you needed.

It's the Sci-Fi death echoing throughout the community.

Monday, Jan 26th: "Mighty Max" COPY: Yo and Lavoie first met bonding over Mighty Max, the innovative, self-contained palm-sized toys for boys, as well as the 1992 animated series it inspired starring Rob Paulsen as Max. In 40 episodes, this series featured a worldview of cultures, mythologies, and even literary villainy on a macro-scale rarely seen in animation at the time. Fate vs. Free Will was pitted against each other as often as Good vs. Evil. How did they draw such compelling source material from a kids' toy?

Yo and Dan Lavoie are at odds on who is writing, enforcing, and directing new comic book rating systems. Do they apply today as the did before dropping the Comic Code Authority in 2010? Are we allowed to draw the line between sex and violence? As mainstream media (TV, comics, movies) compete with freelance media (podcasts, webcomics, Netflix,) morals and lines keep blurring. At least we've finally patched up Powergirl's boob window.
