Summary

In this episode, Shaun travels back in time to the fluorescent, hyper-masculine, dystopian-minded world of the 80's with Fist of the North Star. Meanwhile, Remington (who is already dead on the inside) is less interested in learning about shonen tropes and more interested in classic boy bands.

0:00.0	Warning, anime out of context has strong language, spoilers, stupidly wrong ideas, and general silliness.
0:06.4	Neither of our hosts are professionals and do not take their opinions as such.
0:10.0	Listen at your own discretion, and enjoy. Hello and welcome to anime out of context, the show where I attempt to explain, the sometimes weird, sometimes wonderful, but always hilarious world of anime.
0:39.3	And I search the world for the cure to a broken spirit. I'm Sean Rollins. I'm Remington
0:45.1	Jace. And have I got a treat for you? Oh, Sean, after last time, I mean, it's 100% going to be better than last time, but it's an anime, so I don't know
0:58.9	it could be anything. It could go anywhere. I mean, I set the bar pretty low for you. I'm aware.
1:05.2	You know, I started off this entire series with something that was pretty low, but not so low that you
1:09.7	would lose your heart immediately.
1:11.7	But then I had to kick you in the teeth a bit just because of the constant phenomenon of you
1:18.1	liking things. I know. It was getting concerning. I liked three in a row, which was just way
1:24.2	too many. And so last week, you punished me severely.
1:27.9	The most terrifying thing is that in my heart of hearts, I know,

1:39.5	And you, because you're a bastard, are going to end up showing them to me at one point or another.
1:45.0	Ah, yes, yes I will.
1:48.0	But don't worry, man. That's way farther down the line. I'm not going to show you something so extreme, so early.
1:55.0	So, Sean, what anime do we have this week? What are we looking at? Give me, give me something to look forward to. What's it about? What's
2:02.6	happening? Well, Remington, we're returning to a time where life was a lot more simple. I'm talking about
2:09.0	the 80s, my dude. Of course, the 80s, yes. Things were so simple then. Yeah, all you had to worry about
2:15.9	was disco and cocaine. Disco cocaine, homophobia, racism, you know, the standard deal.
2:22.2	Yeah, because today, Remington, I wanted to cover a couple different topics.
