The 4th and final part of Dee, Caitlin, and Vrai’s reach the end of Escaflowne! They talk about Dilandau’s trans-coding, how the coming-of-age shoujo isekai differs from modern wish-fulfillment isekai, and bid a final farewell to this big feels-fest of a series.
We’re back with Part 3 of Dee, Caitlin, and Vrai’s four-part rewatch of Shoji Kawamori’s Escaflowne! With dream ghosts, cat twins, and literal fanfic machines, it’s the show’s wildest stretch to date—and that is saying something.
Dee, Caitlin, and Peter look back on the Fall 2018 season! The team touches on the licensed shows they watched this Fall, including sequels, shorts, and a few Netflix latecomers of note. A busy season calls for a busy podcast.

Dee, Caitlin, and Vrai celebrate the 69th episode of Chatty AF with Yamada’s First Time: B Gata H Kei! Can an ecchi comedy treat its female characters with respect? The team is gonna find out—and hopefully have a (ah-hem) nice time doing it.
Dee, Caitlin, and Peter check-in on the Summer 2018 season!
