Riot Control Reviews: Winter 2015

Sometimes Kate just refuses to watch a show so Alain has decided to take on some of these less desirables in a new segment we’re calling Riot Control. Like the S.W.A.T. Reviews, Al will watch the first episode of a series and then immediately sit down to record a review mini-podcast. The reviews are five- to ten-minutes long and entirely off the cuff.

S.W.A.T. Reviews: Winter 2015 Pt. 1

The premise of these reviews is simple: watch the first episode of a series and then immediately sit down to record a review mini-podcast. The reviews are five- to ten-minutes long and entirely off the cuff. As always we only review new shows (so no sequels or continuations) and try to avoid anything that just looks outright awful. These are the first batch from the new season and now we’ve broken them into (helpful?) categories:

Sentence: Free to Go

Listen – First impressions of Yurikuma Arashi from Silver Link. It is streaming on Funimation.

Listen – First impressions of Death Parade from MADHOUSE. It is streaming on Funimation and Hulu.

Case Closed Reviews: Fall 2014

First impressions are great but what about our thoughts after we’ve watched an entire series week to week? We figured our listeners might want to hear our final impressions as well so we’ve created the Case Closed Review podcast. Just like the S.W.A.T. Reviews, these will be mini-podcasts and completely off the cuff.

Here are the shows we finished from the spring and summer seasons:

Listen – Final impressions of Rage of Bahamut: Genesis from MAPPA. It is streaming on Hulu and Funimation.

Listen – Final impressions of Gugure! Kokkuri-san from TMS Entertainment. It is streaming on Crunchyroll.

Listen – Final impressions of PSYCHO-PASS 2 from Tatsunoko Productions. It is streaming on Hulu and Funimation.
