Live from the convention, Prede and Jon discuss the return of Otakon! They discuss many of the panels and events at Otakon 2021. On Friday, Prede discussed Daryl Surat’s “Thirty Years Ago: Anime in 1991” Panel (including the infamous “is this a pigeon meme” from the 1991 anime “The Brave Fighter of Sun Fighbird”) which was one his favorites of the weekend, “Shoujo Rock Heaven” that detailed some all girl Japanese rock bands, “The Best Openings for Shows You (Probably) Didn’t See” (also by Daryl Surat and the rest of AWO, much to Prede and Jon’s irk, they did not include “Gunsmith Cats”). Friday also had “Bad Anime, Bad On Panel”, which showed some horrible anime. The Christmas cartoon featured in that panel is “Rapsittie Street Kids: Believe in Santa”, please don’t watch it it’s torture). Prede got to watch a real Japanese Tea Demonstration featuring Inosuke Hashibira from “Demon Slayer” (Really? YES!). The Satoshi Kon panel by Otaku Nate was incredibly helpful and interesting. They also discuss the video game concert, Open World. Saturday, Prede got to learn about Japanese Law through Ace Attorney, both attended the AnimEigo panel, Prede talked about the excitement at the Discotek panel and their amazing announcement of their plans to release and dub the Gainax classic Gunbuster! Prede learns he can’t make Origami, and he sat in on “Your Anime is an 80’s Movie!” which got a lot of criticism online. Ultimately a very educational con!

Sorry the audio quality is not the greatest, this was recorded live at the con!
