But what if you where isekai'd to one by an evil genie TV repairman? Sounds like you're in Pleasantville (1998). I can think of no place I'd rather avoid than an American suburb. Don't forget, you can follow us on twitter at email us at Warning: Pleasantville (1998) *** Thanks for joining us on another isekai journey. Luckily he gets a do-over, but at what price? Only he might find that world more hostile to his intentions than he first imagined. Our protag, Subaru, gets to put his internal worldview to the test in another world. We find that Re:Zero is interested in the little games that people play, the subtle transactions that occur between people all the time without us noticing. But does it serve the story and our understanding of these new characters? Or is it all just complicated airflow? I happen to think it's very enriching, but that might be because I - Solid Snake - have already seen the entirety of this anime before (so has Laurens by the way). These new personages talk and talk with Sorkin-esque loquaciousness and verve. But it is the sheer amount of character banter that makes up the glut of these runtimes. The vistas are dense with finely crafted detail, the designs are eye-catchingly elegant and the worldbuilding is woven into the plot with a naturalistic ease. As we find out, this show absolutely needs 50 minutes to lay out the elaborate clockwork of this new isekai world, perhaps even more. the research pieces, not my ass.Įpisode 1: The End of the Beginning and the Beginning of the End (36:05)Įpisode 2: Reunion with the Witch (1:32:51)Įpisode one is actually a 50 minute double episode, hence us covering just two episodes this time. Our research pieces will be moved to their own episode down the line in the interest of keeping these episode sleek and streamlined, like my sneaking suit which needlessly accentuates my dump truck ass. I'm afraid I had to tactically dispose of the "Otaku Glossary" segment for this week. Instead we wonder how does the claustrophobia and existential horror of Cube relate to Isekai? We get into all of it at (25:25) Luckily that's not what we debate in this weeks "Is It an Isekai" segment. I'm not sure even a veteran of stealth operations, such as myself, could survive in the cube from the 1997 indie sci-fi horror Cube. He also asked me to make my voice extra gravelly. Kept you waiting, huh? Laurens was feeling a bit under the weather so he asked me, Solid Snake (as voiced by David Hayter), to sub for him. We hope you enjoy hearin them!ĭon't forget, you can follow us on twitter at email us at Warning: Cube (1997)***Ĭolonel, come in. We bring a variety of perspectives to the table for this episode. A humble servant in a familiar and comforting hierarchy.

Or perhaps they simply thrive in being unnoticed. While Subaru plays out the JRPG he finds himself transported to, does he have the wherewithal to recognise he's not the only one playing a game here? In these episodes we meet characters who are more than meets the eye, with ambitions that may just dwarf Subaru's isekai dreams. But most importantly, he's the hero of this story.

Subaru is a gamer, in these episodes he's also a hero. No real spoilers are discussed here! Is it an isekai starts at (24:56)Įpisode 3: Starting Life from Zero in Another WorldĮpisode 4: The Happy Roswaal Mansion FamilyĮpisode 5 and our closing thoughts to be uploaded soon! We also finally answer the age old question of who cleans out all the splooge from the holodeck. This is the voyage of 3 podcasters as they discuss whether Star Trek: Voyager is an isekai or not. We spend a little extra time in "What Have You Been Watching" (segment name pending), tearing this awful remake to shreds and praising the original (or at least our memory of it). We've all been hate watching Netflix's Cowboy Bebop and stirring up the vitriol within our souls all week just to get it out for all of the internet to hear. Sorry if you are inconvenienced by this, but it does help get it out on time and keeps the eps from being massive. Our discussion on episode 5 and our closing thoughts will be uploaded some time next week. It's pretty much a standard ep, but we only discuss episodes 3 and 4. ** This one went a bit long so I decided to split it up into two chunks. A big thank you to Sam, who guests on this episode!
