Anime Utamiko Episode 02 – YOU’RE BREAKIN’ MAH BAWLS ALIPRO!

Today’s episode: musings on the potential of HIMEKA and other artists spawned by the Animax Anison Grand Prix competition, gushing over 20+ year-old children’s animal shows, ranting about ALI Project, and three all new requests (not recycled from the remnants of the old list). Also, Eryn talks way too fast for a good portion of the first half of the show. That’s what happens when one records in a hurry, I guess. Sorry!

UPDATE: Oops, I didn’t see those photos of Catherine St. Onge correctly. I don’t know which restaurant she worked at, but it looks like it wasn’t McDonald’s.

I totally agree on Ali Project just making the same song over and over again. Personally I name it ‘moonrunes – the song’ by Ali Project, since I can’t read the kanji anyway to great frustration of at least one person.

More importantly, a suggestion, request, or wherever the heck you want to put it if you had already planned to put it on the show:
“Kimi no Shiranai Monogatari (君の知らない物語)” by supercell from the show Bakemonogatari. (harhar,copypasteann)
That’s supercell as in the supercell who made a bunch of awesome songs with the Miku Hatsune Vocaloid, and even released a CD with the stuff. I only noticed that supercell did the ED song once I saw the ED animation of the third episode, which is equally awesome. I then proceeded to rip the song and put it on loop for several hours.

Fun show, keep on going Eryn.
