Ultra Podcast Z 211 (Nice Boat w/ Snakz) | Anime Expo 2023 Recap & Discussion, School Days, More!7/25/2023 Live Broadcast:
July 18, 2023 6:00 PM PDT Hosts: Manuel Snakz Description: Ultra Podcast Z returned from AX finally! This was going to originally be an episode where we went over AX, our experiences, and then talk a LOT about the anime School Days which Manuel only now found out about. We ended up having a lot more about AX to say though so that's the lion's share of the show. Lots of stuff that no one really talks about regarding the con and how weird it is that Crunchyroll owns just about the entire anime industry in the West now. (Yes, those are two different topics.) Anyway, we did cover School Days towards the end there, but we'll probably table that for another day. Also, our ninth anniversary (A-to-J's that is) is on the horizon!

Ultra Podcast Z 207 (w/ Fangy & Mr. Fangy and Adam & Jessie) | Two Couples Enter, One Couple Leaves6/6/2023 Live Broadcast:
May 30, 2023 6:00 PM PDT Hosts: J.D. Fangy Mr. Fangy Adam Jessie When the Manuel is away, the J.D. will play. This time he challenged two married couples to compete in a trivia competition to prove which of them is nerdier. Will Adam and Jessie declaw the crytpid couple or will Fangy and Mr Fangy devour the competition? A battle so epic, not even technical difficulties could stop it. This episode was very nearly a "lost" episode and has been rebuilt as best as could be done so enjoy it and remember the most important lesson of all: ANIME WAS A MISTAKE!

Ultra Podcast Z 206 (Ani-May #3: At The Anime Movies) | Perfect Blue, Warriors of The Wind, More!5/31/2023 Live Broadcast:
May 23, 2023 6:00 PM PDT Hosts: Manuel J.D. Description: Ultra Podcast Z took an entire month to learn that the memes are right, Anime Was A Mistake. Ani-May soldiers on with J.D. taking the hot seat he technically is ALWAYS in, but is on-screen this time. Internet issues made us skip a week, and the proximity to Fanime made it so that we didn't have a host lined up for this one, so the final Ani-May episode with Manuel was going to be the one discussing Anime Movies! It actually was a pretty well-done episode all things considered since the picks were there, the usual amount of Manuel saying hot takes was there, and JD even forgot the usual amount of important names while we were live. Let us know what some of your favorite anime movies are, and if you've had any experiences with those weird "Westernized" versions of anime that used to fly in the dark early days of the fandom. Also, since we almost definitely won't cover it live in the show, let us know if you had a good time at FanimeCon since the last minute nature of this episode, and its late upload, are both due to that lovely yearly convention.

May 9, 2022 6:00 PM PDT Hosts: Manuel J.D. Description: Ultra Podcast Z continues with Ani-May, this time J.D. becomes a NOT disembodied voice and took the stage for a rare physical appearance. We talked shorter anime recommendations again this time (we did a similar episode last May) and we had completely new choices this time around. This episode moved really fast considering that there was no co-host this time around, an idea we had settled on early on actually, so this is something of a different UPZ. As for the anime, Manuel mentions a lot of Go Nagai shows, and J.D. mentions a lot of stuff that Manuel has never heard of, so it was a maybe it was a standard show after all! Anyhow, let us know what you think about our choices, what some of your shorter anime recs would be, and whatever you want, in the comments below! Ani-May continues all month, and next week we're talking anime movies! As always, take care of yourselves and each other in these trying times and stay healthy and safe!

May 2, 2023 6:00 PM PDT Hosts: Manuel Merliwuv Description: Ultra Podcast Z is celebrating Ani-May again and this week we were joined by Merliwuv to discuss the nine anime to get to know us! It's questionable how well we got this across, but we did talk a lot of anime and that isn't all that common over on UPZ. We did it by way of a 3x3 so both Merliwuv and Manuel had their own set to talk about in each half of the show. JD didn't have time to discuss his, but you can see it on-screen at the end. Ani-May is just kicking off and we have another four weeks to go so keep an eye out for more anime nonsense on UPZ very soon!

March 4, 2023 6:00 PM PDT Hosts: Manuel Photaku Description: Ultra Podcast Z crosses the 200 episode threshold and Photaku joined us for a special episode where we were going to discuss the recently announced Scott Pilgrim anime and exactly what makes a show "anime". We did eventually do that, though we didn't quite come to a consensus on that topic, but we spent a surprisingly long segment at the beginning to discuss the recent Scream 6 and the Scream franchise in general. This was a really fun discussion that covers things we usually don't talk about on UPZ and even the asides in the discussion were pretty on point. We did talk Scott Pilgrim and a lot of Science Saru stuff. Science Saru is the animation studio, who also worked on the Devilman Crybaby series, and are pretty much the only real "anime" link to this show. We discussed Teen Titan, Miraculous Ladybug, RWBY, and more in trying to define what is "anime", and while we did sort of agree on a definition, we didn't really agree on what shows MEET that definition. We closed with a brief bit about the recent nonsense regarding Ada Wong's voice actress from the Resident Evil 4 Remake and all we really have to say about that is to never be an ass to anyone for any reason, even if you're not a fan of their work on your favorite video game or whatever. Just don't be horrible. Let's hope that next week we're able to actually have that special episode 200 thing we planned a few weeks ago...

Ultra Podcast Z 196 (Anime Game Show Takeover w/ Haro) "Um, Actually" & "Anime Connect"... and More!2/27/2023 Live Broadcast:
February 21, 2023 6:00 PM PDT Hosts: Manuel Haro Description: Ultra Podcast Z continues its streak of "Febru-any" episodes as JD took this somewhat off night to host an anime game show takeover. The games we played on this one are actually something of a preview for two panels that he will be hosting at Tora-Con next month. We originally intended to have a few more "contestants" on this one but we were forced to trim things down a little and only a non-video Haro was ultimately able to join us very last minute. This was still a fun show though, and seeing as it ran a little over time-wise, it was probably for the best that we didn't have more people on. Also, this show references two Drink Talk Learn episodes: a still-"lost" episode that featured JD hosting a much more difficult version of "Um, Actually", and an episode that featured Callie talking about the game show "Only Connect". (We have not been able to pinpoint the latter.) Speaking of these games, that's pretty much all this episode is, two anime versions of "Um, Actually" (which is also a game Molly hosted on a different Drink Talk Learn, but with a different theme, so three DTL episodes...) and "Only Connect", which was a lot of fun, if more difficult to play at times. Anyhow, check this one out, play along at home, and let us know if you'd like to see more game show-type content, but maybe with more contestants, in the future. As always, take care of yourselves and each other in these trying times and stay healthy and safe!
