So who could have guessed that an actor strike would mean San Diego Comic-Con would end up being more like the SDCCs of old? With that, so too comes quite a bit of announcements, namely from the likes of Adult Swim and Crunchyroll as it relates to this program. We also take a brief look back at the spring season now that it’s been over for a month, show our surprising optimism for the Netflix One Piece series with its new trailer, go through quite a bit of Dengeki Bunko event announcements, and try to make sense of a certain interview from a certain studio head on this edition of the show. All with our good friend Sketch filling in on very short notice, too.
We’ll be back next week to talk Otakon. Namely with one certain company’s panel. You all know what it is.
