JoJo's Bizarre Podcast

God, isn't it so satisfying to finish something? Films are better than TV that way. ...and we've also managed to finish Satoshi Kon's film catalog this week, since we finally cover Paprika. Is it all it's cracked up to be? Did Christopher Nolan rip it off? Does it have the worst English-language tagline for an anime of all time? Listen and find out. We also talk about The Sandman, Inception, vocaloids, sleep demons, and the common types of dreams. |

[Skip to 9:22 for To Be Hero X talk]

We checked out our first donghua, or Chinese anime, this week: To Be Hero X, thanks to a Patreon supporter. We even watched it in Mandarin! Did we like it as much as Japanese stuff? Listen and find out. We also talk about gout, Mozart's age, family stand-ins, and the languages our grandparents spoke. |

[Skip to 13:15 for Millennium Actress talk]

Well, I thought this was the last Satoshi Kon we would cover on the pod but apparently we've never done Paprika either? Yahoo, more Kon to look forward to. Anyway this is the first time any of us have seen Millennium Actress, and it turns out Satoshi Kon doesn't really have any misses. You can hear us talk about his overall catalogue toward the end of the episode. We also talk about Gmail's AI, Unit 731, and the Liancourt rocks. |

It's a recap of last year on the pod - no new anime to speak of. We talk about our favorite anime we saw in 2025, our favorite anime to debut in 2025, our favorite movies, games, TV shows of the year...and what we hope to see in 2026. We also talk about thin lips, hate-watching, and kids standing in front of doors. |
