Oldtaku no Radio # 051 – Tokyo Godfathers

Three bums talk about three homeless people who find a baby. For our second installment of our Satoshi Kon episodes, Phillip rejoins us to talk about the Christmas (should-be) classic: Tokyo Godfathers. We were a little giddy with holiday spirit, so please forgive us our mania.

    • Jared Nelson's profile

      Jared discovered anime in the early 1990s through stacks of third-hand fandubs and Streamline Pictures tapes. By the tender age of 16, he was humming Macross 7 songs in art class, dreaming of Asuka Langley and hanging Rurouni Kenshin posters on his wall. A few years later he moved to Japan where he worked as an ALT (assistant language teacher) in Ibaraki and Fukuoka Prefectures. While he returned home with a deep appreciation for Japan, its culture, and its public transit system, Jared fell out of anime fandom and only returned in 2010. A self-proclaimed 3rd-level bard, Jared enjoys tabletop gaming and game design, video gaming, giant robots, history, comics, and most recently manga. He is also eternally late to the party.

    • Phillip's profile

      Born of fire but now sporting a treacle waistline, Phillip has been a consumer of anime since 1996, graduating into podcasts and reviews in 2006. When he isn’t writing for Ani-Gamers, you can find him at his own site or writing reviews for Otaku News and Manga BookShelf. He maintains a lone outpost of random anime, manga, J-culture related stuff plus whatever he finds down the couch at his Twitter page
