Welcome to Tooning Japanese, a podcast where three dudes talk about Japanese anime!
Welcome back to another Summer Viewing Program! For those new to this series, we take a break between seasons to watch and talk about something that each host wants the other two to experience.
It's Bill's week, so of course we're not talking about anime. This time around we visit the small town of Letterkenny and learn all about their problems. It's kind of hard to describe the show if you haven't seen it, but we do our absolute best. At least it isn't Tiger King this year. Enjoy!
Watch Your Name on Hulu.

Welcome to Tooning Japanese, a podcast where three dudes talk about Japanese anime!
Welcome back to another Summer Viewing Program! For those new to this series, we take a break between seasons to watch and talk about something that each host wants the other two to experience.
This week is more than just a regular summer viewing. Today we discuss a recently uncovered piece of anime history. For those that have not heard, the fabled American pilot for Sailor Moon, dubbed "Saban Moon" by many, finally found the light of day thanks to the tireless work of Ray Mona. Both a music video and pilot emerged, and the anime world saw a glimpse of what could have been. Andy had to talk about this, and the cast did! Join us for an insane look at a very, very bad pilot of an Americanized version of Sailor Moon.
Here's the content by Ray Mona that we discussed throughout this episode:
- Official Saban Moon Pilot Episode (1994)
- Saban Moon Pilot Opening Intro (1994)
- The Western World of Sailor Moon [Documentary Part 1]
- Finding Saban Moon: The Western World of Sailor Moon [Documentary Part 2]

We gave Matt the green light to pick our first piece of media to review, and in typical Matt fashion, he has chosen something anime related. Not just something anime, but one of the highest rated anime films of all time. Yes, this week we are jumping between bodies as we experience the acclaimed film, Your Name.

We are looking forward to all working together again next season!

Andy is headed to Gen Con in Indianapolis this weekend, so our final discussion of Neon Genesis Evangelion will be pushed back a week. Until then, enjoy one of our Tooning In episodes, our Patreon mini-series where we discuss the first episode of an anime series. This episode features the classic board game commercial show, After School Dice Club. It's Andy's pick. Blame him.

We finally made it, fans! We are at The End of Evangelion. Literally. It's the movie we review and discuss. This is the alternate ending to the anime Neon Genesis Evangelion, and we have a LOT of thoughts. It begins with a song and ends with a sigh of relief. This took hours to record and many more hours to edit, so we hope you enjoy.

Welcome to Tooning Japanese, a podcast where three dudes talk about Japanese anime!
Do you hate the ending of Evangelion? So do we. Do we spend an hour just getting angry at it? Absolutely not. This may be one of our best discussions about the end of an anime as we break down the symbolism, storytelling, and visual elements that make Episodes 25 and 26 of Neon Genesis Evangelion so contested, yet unique. We still have two more Evangelion episodes to go this season, and we have a LOT to say here and in those two!

Welcome to Tooning Japanese, a podcast where three dudes talk about Japanese anime!
Matt has the unenviable task of trying to make sense of Episode 24 of Neon Genesis Evangelion, "The Last Cometh." The short version of this episode involves a new pilot, LGBTQ+ content, Gendo's unwashed hand, an actual mech battle, and a love lost. Trust me, it doesn't make much more sense than that, but listen to us try to figure out the last episode before the anime's iconic mess of a conclusion.
