Wow, a whole year. I can't believe that one year ago, we were complaining about harmless anime. And now we're... complaining about a whole bunch of anime all at once. See our countdown of the best, worst and in between shows we've reviewed this year!

Black Jack Review

Paint It Black Month moves ahead full steam after last week's debacle!

He's baaaaack. That's right, Yerocha is guest starring again to review the anime Black Jack, based on the classic manga by Osamu Tezuka. Was this series in good health or on life support? Listen to find out!

Note: in the podcast, I say that we have a commercial break in the middle that you can go to to avoid too many spoilers.  If you can't see the break (a black dot in the progress bar), the spoilers end at time stamp 30:10.

Five Point Podcast Episode 26: Black Jack by fivepointpodcast

Hey guys, I just heard that Toonami's back!

Much to my shock, the new Toonami includes Casshern Sins.  I must say that I was honestly shocked when I saw it on the list, given how grim and, frankly, weird it is. 

Hm... it seems to me some clever and handsome reviewers did a review of Casshern a few months back, with the help of a certain manga blogger guest star... (wink wink)

If you missed it the first time around, it's not too late!  See what all the fuss is about!

Announcement: Paint It Black Month

This June, the Five Point Podcast will review four shows. What do they have in common? By amazing coincidence, the word Black is in all of their titles. Hey, I've heard of flimsier justifications for a theme month.

Enjoy as we cover the well known, the obscure and one bizarre show based on the work of... ROGER CORMAN. There will be...

Crossovers!
Vampires!
Surgeons!
Child Abuse!
And more!
The Schedule:

6/3: Black Blood Brothers (Request from Angel of the Wolf)
6/10: Black Heaven (Request from Angel of the Wolf)
6/17: Black Scorpion (Request from Legendmaker) (Guest star Legendmaker)
6/24: Black Jack (Guest star Yerocha)

Casshern Sins Review- Featuring Yerocha

Because you demanded it! A crossover between the Five Point Podcast and Yerocha's Shades of Grey manga review! Be sure to check out his website at http://shadesofgreymanga.wordpress.com/.

In this episode, Bobcat, Burkion and Yerocha tackle Casshern sins. Set in a post apocalyptic future, one amnesiac man must try to figure out why armies of robots want to eat him. Was the series in working order, or did it need a quick tune up?
