We're back for another exciting episode! Also joining us as another full time panellist is our good friend Richard Hoelsher!


Hosts: Drew Sutton, Marc Smazik, Jason Brown and Richard Hoelsher

We introduce Richard and briefly discuss his adventure through anime fandom and his years staffing Anime Weekend Atlanta. We then get to the meat of the program as we review the oft-overlooked Miyazaki Hayao classic, 1979's Castle of Cagliostro, a Lupin III film and the easiest entry into the space opera metaseries Space Pirate Captain Harlock by taking a look at 1982's  My Youth In Arcadia. We also sit down to discuss the dying fate of anime clubs which were at one time about the only way people could get their anime.
