I'll post them and give a quick shout out to you on this page! - TG

Takeshobo goes well, but they say they would like to hear what Shogakukan, another publisher with rights to some of the anime we showed in episode 1.0,　thinks about Anime 4 the LazyMan. With 'SC connections, Chi snags an appointment wtih Shogakukan, one of Japan's largest and oldest manga rights holders. Though Chi's friend & Elite(™) model Emi is there to translate... Things go badly from the start...

** A RAW (no subtitles) version of this episode is also available at G-pen.com ** Episode 4 was a special impromptu episode. Hana, one of the studio's staff, came into the studio the day before she left for Hong Kong. Hana, who grew up most of her life in Hong Kong, overheard us talking about otaku in the U.S. and couldn't believe there WERE such a thing as American otaku. So we knew we had to set her straight... with...a little bit of fanservice..;) **G-pen.com salutes the New York Comic-Con that went on the weekend after this ep aired

Its Episode 3, and lots of things have changed! The quality is higher! (45 MBs!) The video is shorter (only 10mins!) The co-host is taller! (172 cm/5'8"!) ...all of which serve to make ep 3 all the more sweeter. Episode #3 takes a more focused, historical turn, as we focus on an anime Yuko picked out, the revolutionary anime DEVILMAN (1972), and the effect it had not just on the Anime industry, but on an entire generation of Japanese children. (The boss thinks it was good effect.) The beautiful Yuko joins us as co-host. Again, as a large file, its best to save ep3 first and then watch it on your hard drive. Or click on the RSS button to have new episodes delivered to your computer automatically! FEATURES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: DEVILMAN TIME BOKAN POWER RANGERS KAMEN RIDER P.S. Oh, and I know the pic looks sketchy-but trust us, Ep. 3 is safe for all ages!

Episode Two, our second attempt at an episode, is a little bit more serious of an episode. DEAD SEA. After some lighthearted Dragonball/DBZ recap from the last episode, the boss delves into the reason why he’s letting Chi do this podcast. And proceeds to tear Chi’s self-esteem to shreds. The beautiful Arika joins Chi as co-host. Features Mentioned In This Episode: DB/Z CYBORG 009 DEVILMAN MAZINGER Z GREAT MAZINGER GLOIZER/GROIZER X TIME BOKAN P.S. This one’s another 43 MB, so again, saving the entire file to your disk before you watch it is probably a better idea.

After calling Takeshobo from the payphone, Chi actually makes an appointment with the "Akagi" supervisor! Today, Chi goes to his appointment this first industry meeting alone...

Episode 1.01 is the first in a T.I. sub-series called Anime on the Street. This sub-series chronicles Chi's trials & tribulations as he tries to get permission to show pictures of other companies characters during the show. (This is necessary in an industry as small as the anime one. CHI sets off on a quest to get permission to remove the censors in ep. 1.0. First stop: Takeshobo Publishing, owners of "AKAGI."
