Description:
Ultra Podcast Z finally returns! We had an accidental long break for about a month, but we are BACK and we also see the return of Konaru in this episode! Joining us from Treasurebox Press is Pleiades and we discuss the crazy world of live action anime adaptations! There was a bit of shakiness at first as we all had to get into our roles again, but there are some hot takes here that we're sure everyone will have things to discuss! We covered everything from the little discussed Fist of The North Star movie, the recent Alita and Ghost In The Shell movies, to the "bad" movies including Devilman and Dragonball Evolution. We also slightly deviated with some discussion on the upcoming Sonic The Hedgehog movie and EVEN briefly discussed the still ongoing #KickVic thing! Crazy stuff! Be sure to check it out!

Description:
Ultra Podcast Z finally returns! We had a previous Episode 69 that mainly covered Anime Expo 2019, but the audio quality made that one hard to release, so we did a redux with a different topic! Convention Maid Cafes! Callie joins us again and regales us with tales of her first year being a maid for Anime Expo and we get lots of experiences and stories from the other hosts as well as well as a nice segment at the end where Jasmine discussed running a maid cafe via her experiences with Sugar Sugar Maid Cafe! ALSO, this episode marked Konaru's return after a two month absence! Hopefully this show marks a return to form for us and Ultra Podcast Z in the foreseeable future!

Joining Manuel and Callie is 5.1play, a maid cafe whose activities you can follow both on their twitch channel and via certain pop-ups! We discussed everything from the concept of maid cafes to what exactly "moe" (pronounced "mo-eh") is. Along the way we discussed a lot regarding our experiences with maid cafes and had a lot of views from the experience of long time maids Sayuri and Kitty, as well as first-year maid Callie. We had a lot of fun with this topic and we hope that you enjoy this episode too!

Hosts:
Manuel
Jasmine
Molly
Callie

Description:
Ultra Podcast Z has the cosplay episode that we've been soft planning for about two weeks now! We also had FOUR hosts so we had an excuse to once again use the Five Person Overlay! This was on cosplay so joining A-to-J peeps, Molly and Jasmine was our friend Callie! We discussed everything from the horror of Party City wigs to the first cosplays we wore and if they were cringe or not! We also closed the show out with a LOT of cosplay horror stories that eventually just turned into Con/Con Hotel horror stories. We also all realized we kept our irons within arms reach at most times and how to properly open an ironing board! There was seriously a lot here and it was a fun one! Maybe we'll do this topic again!

Ultra Podcast Z 66 (Wrestling Special w/ Matt) | Classic WWF/WCW, NJPW, AEW, Idols & Wrestling

6/12/2019

Live Broadcast:
June 11, 2019 7:00 PM PDT

Hosts:
Manuel
Matt

Description:
Ultra Podcast Z finally has a special episode on wrestling and this one had as laidback a feel as the previous episode. We didn't have much of an outline and some host changes made this something of a last minute episode but we had a lot of fun with it and covered a lot of fun topics! At times we were random, but we managed to reign it in several times to tie the topic into Japanese pop culture, not always easy considering the scope of the topic. Keep in mind that we're in no way a professional wrestling podcast, but we're actually hoping to cover wrestling on a semi-regular basis on the podcast in the future! If you like that idea please let us know! If you want to watch Ultra Podcast Z live then check out our twitch channel: twitch.tv/atojplays We are live every Tuesday at 7 PM PST!

Ultra Podcast Z 65 (w/ Molly & Tim) | FanimeCon 2019, Anime Expo Prep, Hentai, JAV, Eroge, More!

6/8/2019

Live Broadcast:
June 6, 2019 7:00 PM PDT

Hosts:
Manuel
Molly
Tim

Description:
Ultra Podcast Z returns after nearly a month of inactivity with a rather chill episode featuring Molly and Timtastic! We mainly discussed FanimeCon 2019 and our prep leading up to Anime Expo 2019, but we had a lot to dicuss in between! We spent an awful lot of time talking about hentai, eroge, and JAV, specifically "Bible Black" and the possibility of a JAV Cinematic Universe! We also spent a lot of time talking about swatstikas in popular Japanese media in relation to a recent panel we did and we had a similarly long side discussion. Anyhow, this one is very lowkey and chill and we also featured a cat and some live cosplay work from Molly!

Ultra Podcast Z Episode 56 | Vic Mignogna, Chuck E. Cheese, Cannibals, R/Entitled Parents, More!

6/4/2019

Live Broadcast:
February 19, 2019 7:00 PM PDT

Hosts:
Manuel
Konaru
Jasmine

Description:
Ultra Podcast Z got it's first TRUE "Lost Episode" and we honestly thought that this would stay dead forever but here we are. This was recorded and streamed on an off night and we had no real topics to speak of. We ended up saying a lot of crazy things and probably talked a bit too long about cannibals in the middle and Vic Mignogna at the beginning. We're not really sure if this is an episode that a lot of people would like several months later, but here it is for our viewers to enjoy! Be prepared for the "other" lost episodes to be slowly uploaded here as well!

Ultra Podcast Z 64 (Convention Special w/ Shelby & Haro) | Anime World Matsuri, Fashion, Cons, More!

5/15/2019

Live Broadcast:
May 13, 2009 7:00 PM PDT

Hosts:
Manuel
Konaru
Shelby
Haro

Description:
Ultra Podcast Z uses it's four person layout for the first time in a while and we have to amazing co-hosts on this one! Joining us from Relentless Weebs & Bombshell Media is Shelby and from the J-Fashion world comes Haro! There was a lot of randomness here, but even though we didn't have an outline to speak of at all, we really kept it going and didn't really falter. Small notes to the Game of Thrones Houses as Anime Convention thing probably going on a little longer than it should've, but that was still fun and the infamous Season 8 Episode 5 was still fresh on our minds. Even though the topic outline isn't totally accurate, you can use that to skip to where you want to go, but this episode is probably best consumed as a whole! ALSO, this will be our last episode until we return from Fanime, so be sure to check it out! Be sure to like, comment, and subscribe for more!

Hosts:
Manuel
Konaru
Ren

Description:
Ultra Podcast Z returns with our so-far stable cast of Manuel, Konaru, and Ren! We originally had a lot of smaller topics to discuss, but we ended up talking Easter (complete with a BUNNY!) and we talked a lot regarding Convention Prep! Peppered between that topic were a lot of convention horror stories like which con is the true elevator con and how one deals with con crunch! There is a lot of fun to be had here and be sure to tune in towards the end to catch the reveal of Ren's alter ego, Recycle-chan! Also, we DID rapid fire off the news topics we skipped at the very end of the podcast, but time had already slipped from us by that point. Be sure to like, comment, and subscribe for more!

Description:
Ultra Podcast Z FINALLY has something of a stable cast! It's been over a year since its creation and debut and while we've featured about 20 hosts, we're finally keeping the steady cast of Manuel, Konaru, and Ren! Anyhow, this is the first time we've had a "guest" co-host return twice in a row and we decided to have a fun "weeb" and "cringe" episode where we basically out ourselves as the nerds we are! There was a bit of other topics in the beginning, but the main part of it was discussing things that we really SHOULD be too embarrassed to share but we do so anyway! Let us know if you have any cringe stories of your own to share below! Be sure to like, comment, and subscribe for more!
