Otaku 5-0 Season 3: Episode 4

Aloha everybody,

For this episode of Otaku 5-0, I return to the center seat as moderator and direct my fellow panelists (Mr. A, Jupiter, Maka & Zell) through another series of topic discussion, ending with the latest installment of The Gauntlet (our version of, "the impromptu Q & A") with Executive Producer Mr. A in the hot seat.

Additionally, I am very happy to report that, due to some slight tweaking with my computer's sound settings, I have finally gotten the sound quality of our podcast to a "professional" level (if I could use a Goldilocks analogy, it's not too soft or too loud... but just right.)

So sit back and enjoy the fruit of our labors, and we hope you have as much fun listening to this as we had recording it.

Mahalo,
~Totoro (Executive Producer)
