Customer Reviews
Good
Good reviews, but what happened to them?
Bakacast
I really wasn't expecting much when I downloaded "bakacast", I only did it originally because of the title of their episode, "Lucky Star Wars". Now, even though I can't forgive them for not liking Lucky Star (X3), their show took me by suprise. It was deep and insightful while being humorous and witty. These guys are funny, and they know what they are talking about. When I was done listening, I couldn't believe an hour had already passed. If you haven't heard Bakacast yet, you owe to yourself to give it a try' you won't regret it.
Great effort.
This is an amazing podcast because it sounds like the people are actually interested in anime, something most podcasters lack, go figure! I wish to hear more from these guys in future episodes.
