Chic Pixel Plus Episode 26 – Anime Insight

7 / 28 / 157 / 28 / 15

Alice Odin Sphere gif

In the first official episode in the new season 2 format, we reveal our first Manga Book Club pick, discuss the first two episodes of the summer anime we’re watching, and swoon over the new Odin Sphere HD remake (note: English version was confirmed after we recorded). The Death Note drama gets what might be its final update on the show, and Anne implores everyone with a Crunchyroll subscription to read the Princess Jellyfish manga. We even unveil a brand new segment, App Attack, where we gush over the adorable smartphone game Alphabear. As always, feedback is greatly appreciated! Send it on over to podcast@chic-pixel.com.

Chic Pixel Plus Episode 24 – Tokyo Boys and Girls

7 / 7 / 157 / 8 / 15

Cat Sushi Schoolgirl

In this brand-spanking new episode of Chic Pixel Plus, Sarah and Roy of My Fair Hunter (and many other lovely things!) join me to discuss their recent move to Tokyo. Roy divulges what it’s like working at the localization company 8-4 Ltd., Sarah shares her webcomic process, and we all gush a little bit too much about kotatsu. Japanese grocery coupons, freelance lifestyle, bringing cats overseas… If you ever wanted to know what it’s like to move across the world or work for a localization company in Japan, this is the show for you!

Chic Pixel Plus Episode 23 – The Monster (Hunter) Mash

2 / 3 / 159 / 13 / 15

In honor of the impending English release of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate for the 3DS, the first episode of Chic Pixel Plus of 2015 is dedicated to all things MH4U! I’m joined by my Team Derp hunting buddies Elliot “can’t get enough of this podcast” Gay and “if it’s not good, sell it in two days” Hasemo to discuss the ins and outs of our collective first serious Monster Hunter game.

But first, we touch on a few news items, including some recent Kickstarters of interest, as well as what else we’ve been playing/watching (Tales of Zestiria, Kuroko no Basuke, and more). Then, we delve into our histories with the Monster Hunter franchise, what weapons we use and why, favorite/not so favorite monsters, and answer some listener questions. If you’re on the edge of your seat waiting to play MH4U, this is the podcast for you!

*Be warned that there is some discussion of a new G rank monster (other new monsters are discussed, but nearly all have already been revealed in promotional materials), so if you don’t want to be spoiled in any way, skip over the portion where we start talking about some meanie called “Gogu.”

Opening ♫ – Wind of Departure (Professor Sakamoto Super 8bit Remix) – Monster Hunter Compilation Re:Mix Chiptune
Closing ♫ – BBQ Spit “Jyouzu ni yakemashita!” – Monster Hunter 4G

People are quick to blame the translators for these things but I 100% guarantee no pro translator scrubbed these lines of their own volition. This was definitely mandated possibly even by Nintendo Japan. Don't blame little guys doing their jobs, blame the corporations. https://twitter.com/Mondblut1984/status/1617857848385622018

I love how Stickii Club collaborates with different indie artists every month 💕 Soon they’ll be adding washi tape and switching to a more environmental friendly storage option. Definitely recommend!

Sharing art + making a video = ANXIETY OVERLOAD 😫😅 Anywaaay, I loved this screenshot from ACPC @cozynamie took so much that I tried recreating it with two different mediums! Colored pencils were my first attempt, gouache second. It’s good practice to do the same piece a couple of times! Thanks again @cozynamie for letting me use your screenshot as a ref 💕
