    • Manga Mavericks @ Movies #52: "Dan Da Dan: Evil Eye" (w/Abel Góngora & the English Dub Cast!)
      Jun 11 2025
      Dun Da Dun, we’re talking about Dan Da Dan! Dan Da Dan is one of the best-produced anime on the scene, and the first three episodes of season two are currently screening in U.S. theaters as a compilation film dubbed Dan Da Dan: Evil Eye. I had the opportunity to interview the new season’s co-director, Abel Góngora, a longtime Science Saru animator who directed the beloved opening sequence for Dan Da Dan’s first season, as well as the English dub voice cast: A.J. Beckles (Okarun), Abby Trott (Momo), and Aleks Le (Jiji/Evil Eye)! I talked with Abel about how he collaborated with first season director Fuga Yamashiro on this season and his thought process behind many of the creative choices made with the animation, color, and art direction in the show. Then, I ask the dub cast about the highlights and difficulties of performing their characters, with A.J. discussing how he captures the interiority of Okarun in both his normal and Turbo forms and tries to push himself to match or surpass Natsuki Hanae’s performance, Abby sharing how they protect their voices when having to do lots of yelling, and Aleks explaining how he manages to do all of Jiji’s crazy vocal chances all in one take and tried not to make his Evil Eye voice sound too sexy! (ymmv, ;D) It was such a delight to do these interviews. Abel is incredibly humble about his work, but his brilliant creative vision shines on the screen. Meanwhile, I really appreciate how the dub cast are all incredibly passionate about the show and their characters and really think about their interiority and want to do right by them and the fans, and I really love how they all support and build each other up, particularly Abby and Aleks for A.J. Listening to these interviews, you get a great sense of the passion and love everyone involved has for the show, and their combined efforts really come alive on the screen. That said, how is Evil Eye as a “movie,” or at least theatrical experience? Before getting into my interviews with the Dan Da Dan crew, I give my review of Dan Da Dan: Evil Eye and share my reasons why you should definitely take a look at it! Trust me, unlike the character of the Evil Eye, looking right at it won’t make you want to die!

    • Manga Mavericks @ Movies #51: "The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie" (w/Candi Milo!)
      May 28 2025
      Welcome back to Manga Mavericks @ Movies! The show where we don’t just talk smack about movies, we celebrate them! What’s up, Mavericks? Lum and VLord are here to chew bubblegum and talk Looney Tunes, and we’re all out of gum! Luckily, we still have plenty to chew on, as we’re discussing the first ever fully original 2D animated Looney Tunes movie, The Day the Earth Blew Up! Originally slated for a streaming-only release on Max, and then put at risk of being written off by WBD altogether, the film was picked up for distribution by Ketchup Entertainment, who gave it a wide theatrical release in March, and have just put it out on home video, with a streaming release on Max planned for June 27th! We’re so glad Ketchup saved this film, because its gorgeous animation and art deserved to be seen on the biggest screen possible! We discuss how director Pete Browngardt’s delightful throwback to 1940s Bob Clampett-directed Looney Tunes shorts and 1950s sci-fi creature features is a fantastic culmination of his work on the Looney Tunes shorts over the past few years, bringing Daffy back to his wacky screwball characterization, and exploring a genuinely sweet brotherly relationship between Porky and Daffy as they team up to thwart an alien invader who seemingly plans to “blow up” the Earth using gum-chewing, bubble-blowing zombies! Before that, Lum interviews Candi Milo, a venerable VA who stars as this film’s version of Petunia Pig, reimagined as an eccentric flavor scientist who is as explosive an on-screen presence as the gum she creates! Candi shares how she approached her performance as Petunia, her favorite gags and moments with the character, how she played off of Eric Bauza’s performance as Porky and Daffy and created her own version of Porky’s stutter, alongside lots more highlights from the recording process and her experiences with the Looney Tunes franchise! So push the play button and pull the volume up and stick with us as we merrily go ‘round talking all about this looney powerhouse of a film until the merry-go-round breaks down!

    • EP. 244: 20th Century Boys
      May 12 2025
      Gu~ta-lala Su~da-lala! On this episode of Manga Mavericks, Colton & Lum are joined by manga letterer and Urasawa super fan, Aidan Clarke, as well as host of both Duckface Diaries and Podcastmon Adventures, Wensleydale Cheddar, to discuss one of Naoki Urasawa's most beloved manga series with 20th Century Boys! A multifaceted, sprawling Stephen King-esque story about a group of kids born in the 60's whose wild and active imaginations are co-opted and brought to life decades later by a cult-like figure known as "The Friend" in order to take over the world, and its up to our now grown up heroes to stop them! Join our favorite Mavericks as they jump around as much the series does in discussing every facet that stood out to them from this amazing tale! From the now seemingly prophetic story of a world on a downward spiral, to the dangers of out of control nostalgia and fanaticism, and especially...the power of music!
