Build Casters

On this episode of Build Casters, Ash, is joined by undoubtedly one of the smartest men in the Anime Podcasting Game, Jamal, host of Get In The Mecha. Ash, a Millennial, and Jamal, a Zoomer, start off by chopping it up about their experiences growing up as Otaku from two different generations, then go on to tackle the main topic, Makoto Shinkai's 2002 Mecha Anime Romance: Hoshi no Koe (Voices of a Distant Star). They highlight the plot and key themes, but really spend most of the episode marvelling at the animation and the fact that Shinkai animated this work single-handedly using technology that seems decidedly ancient by 2020 standards. SO what are you waiting for? Sit back, relax and tune in to this episode of Build Casters! You won't want to miss it!  Links Get In The Mecha Hoshi no Koe (Crunchyroll) Voices of a Distant Star (Blu-Ray) (UK)
