Otaku Pride Podcasts

Whoo! Second podcast. It was fun to listen too, what with the talk of Tamagotchis and saying childhood slogans wrong.

Not wanting to read about Pokemon is blasphemy. Pokemon is amazing.

The opening song always creeps me out though, because that music video is terrifying.

Stop making me wish I lived in the City even more than I already do. So close and yet so far! (I'm about an hour and a half away, by train.)

As for the layouts, I actually like it being simple. Just different color mixes would be cool for me (as in, now I think of blue and red. You could do green/yellow, pink/purple, that kind if thing.)

ALSO. I am female. XD

Podcast there made my day. Hearing all the "Over 9000" And "BALLS ARE INERT" was pretty crazy. So were the jokes about those MMORPGs. And the "BELIEVE IT" with Naruto.... XD

If I were you I wouldn't take Naruto seriously though. Way better when you treat it more like a comedy than an action.... XD

And for prizes you guys could hand out Medals.... If your thread is picked or something.

And isn't 'Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A" from Sonic Advanced?

Keep 'em coming. I loved this.

OMG! o_O I feel embarrassed Cat Face for some reason lol also I smiled too ^_^ and a monkey drawn by Kou.... that would be EPIC! many would agree.

Well, that makes me happy that at least a couple of people enjoyed it :)

nice douple post there TomHarrigan. I enjoyed listening to all of you very knowledgeable remarks. PS Made me chuckle a few times ;)

Podcast 14 overall was entertaining (and that's a key factor in any podcast), but basically because you guys are really good at making fun of each other the games you're playing. XD It was also informative to an extent of what OP is doing and planning, but still mostly about games. Listening to this podcast made me realize that the last few podcasts have been pretty heavy on the gamer content, pretty good on user content, and lacking in anime/general fandom content. Now I know you guys are mostly into gaming and I personally don't actively search out anime news, but I'm thinking we need a bit more discussion geared towards the threads at least. It got sidetracked away from threads in this podcast, You guys require Sasha and someone else to balance out the gamer testosterone.

Other points:

I appreciate the iTouch thing, makes it easier to type. You should know how much I love this site for replying on it. XD

This was great. Fun to listen to and you had me laughing and agreeing. Loved the comments about Digimon, Pokemon, and Naruto.

Yay, prizes! A soda cap'd be AWESOME. Any otaku could add it to their collection.

If you ever need or want anyone else in this, I'd love to participate sometime.

Also, Beacon Theater? Is that anywhere near Beacon, NY? I'm starting to wonder if half of you on the site live down the street. XD

OH, AND SAIYUKI, HELL YES.

Good stuff. Im just sad that I couldnt make it for the first session. You definitely need a female in there lol.

Sooo, time for my feedback on the 3rd podcast! I really enjoy listening to these and they just keep getting better and better the more you guys just have fun with the flexible structure of it! I especially like that all of you are all together in the same room recording. Makes for an amazing group dynamic that I don't think is very common with podcasts (or just the few I've heard in life).

So yeah...you guys should have me on the podcast so I can fill in all these blanks and stuff! ^_^

Podcast 6

For me, this was more of the down-to-earth, slightly geekier podcasts. I enjoyed it mostly for it behind the scenes content regarding a small portion of the gaming industry and the controversial, thought-provoking questions that were asked. Yes, you guys did goof off once you reached the site topics portion of the cast, but it had a different feel and a lot less derailing. ^^ Thanks for sharing your experiences with us, Sam.

I want to explain the confusion of my comment about "incorporating audio into Dance of Heart." I want to eventually have some audio on the site or make mp3s downloadable to better engage the reader in the moments where dancing is occurring. Obviously, it's a manga, but because it is on the web, potential for different interactive ideas exists. Nothing is promised nor is it necessary - there's no way I could make this happen on my own anyway - but it's just a thought for the future.
