No SHAFT This Week

There isn’t an episode of Super Happy Anime Fun Time this week. This is due to the Christmas holiday and our staff wanting to take some time off and then turn around and work on the podcast. So take the time to listen to our current episodes, leave us some Diggs over at Digg.com or some reviews over at iTunes or send along anything to our email, animeshaft@gmail.com We’ll read off your emails on the air!

So we’ll be back next week with a new episode of Super Happy Anime Fun Time.

Episode #1: First Podcast! The Road to Epic Legendary!

No more One Piece?!

This is our first episode and we’re glad to be here to deliver the oddest slant of panel podcasting for anime that we can deliver. In this episode we cover a ton of anime news that has flown down the pipes, and by a lot we mean a little though there are quite a few topics. We also cover a review of Fullmetal Alchemist which we love so dear and sadly no call-ins or email to speak of. But thats ok because its the first episode.

PANEL: Chris(132 Productions), Angelo(from um.. World of Warcraft?)
NEWS:

4Kids Stopped production of One Piece at episode 104, aired 78 of them and still stays alive in Japan at 289 episodes(as of this podcast), The Annie Awards have no Anime for consiteration, Death Note drops from 4 weeks at #1 to 3rd place, not to mention a possible Death Note spin off, Funimation gets a block of anime in Sacramento, Prince of Tennis and MAR move from Jetstream to full Toonami, Detective Conan(Case Closed) Movie 11 to be released in Japan in April, Broccoli gets some titles, RomeoxJuilet gets a trailer to pick up, Coyote Ragtime Show preview up on IGN, Oscar shines on Paprika which has a sound track up for one, JASRAC jumps on the sue YouTube banner, Canada has a Maid Cafe, and Witchblade Manga will be out in Febuary with both a flipped and unflipped format.

Review:

We talked about the anime that dethroned Evangelion, Fullmetal Alchemist. We laughed, we cryed, we kissed this anime’s ass.
