Embark on an animated adventure with us, Dakota and Anthony, as we navigate the spellbinding narratives of Makoto Shinkai's "Suzume" and dive into its detailed animation artistry. We contrast this film against his prior hits "Your Name" and "Weathering With You," revealing how the supernatural elements intertwine with Japan's seismic history to create a story that resonates with both heart and heritage. Our anime aficionado hearts also beat faster for the latest buzz-worthy titles like "Solo Leveling," and we toss around theories on the upcoming "Kaiju No. 8" adaptation, while revisiting timeless classics such as "Neon Genesis Evangelion." Plus, we slide into a chat about the new "Marvel Rivals" game, speculating on its potential to capture our imaginations just as "Overwatch" once did.
In our gaming time capsule, we're whisked back to the enchanting realms of World of Warcraft and its expansions that have shaped our virtual lives. We share our personal tales from Azeroth and beyond, from the epic adventures in The Burning Crusade to the game-changing moments of Cataclysm. As Anthony gears up for an exciting plunge into the Star Ocean series remasters*, our gaming enthusiasm doesn't end there—we're back at it with Destiny 2 and even delve into the surprise delight that X-Men '97 brings to the table, potentially upstaging its iconic predecessor.
Lastly, the podcast wanders through the shadows of a world where being a 'closer' means confronting your family's legacy. Scenes in "Suzume" like the haunting abandoned amusement park come alive as we dissect the emotional threads that connect characters and underscore powerful messages about love and the triumph over darkness. This isn't just a recommendation—it's an invitation: join us in celebrating "Suzume," engage with us on social media, and become part of the conversation that makes geek culture so incredibly vibrant.
