Yes, it gets out of hand but we both talk about how our brains work and see the world. And isn't that what podcasts are about? Twitter:@ASStructure Email:AnimeStoryStructure@gmail.com…

Gurren Lagann: Episode 7. A little divisive this episode. Where Brian enjoyed it but Emma felt discomfort. Yeah, the action was fun and the cavalry arrived but was there even a POV? Kamina became more of a symbol than a person when up against Sharktooth. And his boss, Thymilph! And we hear about HIS boss, the Spiral King! Twitter:@ASStructure Email…

Gurren Lagann: Episode 6. We made it to our 50th episode of the podcast! What a perfect time to have a hot spring episode.
