Sudden but Inevitable

SBI is back from our vacation to bring you the latest in our watch of Death Note with our anime-resistant friends Josh and Ricky D! This week, we are watching Matsuda and Makeshift, lamenting a lack of plot advancement, while attempting to learn current young person lingo and feeling out the live-chat's feelings on fanfiction.

This week at SBI, Josh kink-shames anyone who is into cherry knots, but also thinks Misa's treatment is a little unfair. Ricky D manages to soften his Misa Misa edge slightly, while getting very excited to see some guns in some faces. As usual, the Cap'n tries to hold everything together this week in an attempt to also discuss a pair of Death Note episodes!Subscribe to Open Pike Night now to be part of the Cap'n's new Star Trek Strange New Worlds podcast!Support your favorite indie podcast in style with an SBI shirt!

This week the SBI crew discovers what happens when Rem decides not to like you anymore, and Josh is finally able to decide how he feels about Light! Ricky D of course takes the opportunity to wonder how he feels about Light's little sister. Wait, that came out wrong...but we're wagering that you'll let that decision slide!Subscribe now to Open Pike Night now to be part of the Cap'n's new Star Trek Strange New Worlds podcast!Support your favorite indie podcast in style with an SBI shirt!

This week the crew returns from a break and is joined by the Incomparable Mrs. Sudden! Will Ricky D be able to maintain his positive attitude from two weeks ago? Will Josh ever be able to stop feeling bad for Light? What happens if two Shinigami fall in love? We have a lot of questions this week, in case that's not obvious.Subscribe now to Open Pike Night now to be part of the Cap'n's new Star Trek Strange New Worlds podcast!Support your favorite indie podcast in style with an SBI shirt!

This week sees a new kind of SBI, the pre-recorded kind! To help us make up for our lack of a live audience, anime superfan Phil K stopped by to discuss a bit of Death Note with us! Josh finds himself mistrusting this new Kira, while Ricky D is fully on board. Where does that leave the Cap'n?

Our friend Cali D makes a quick comeback to discuss the first ever Encounter between Light and L, and the subsequent Doubt that this meeting causes in both of them. Couple things you don't have to doubt? Ricky D is dragging his feet, Josh is feeling a little emo, and the Cap'n is trying desperately to keep it all barreling toward some sort of cogent point!

This week the crew discusses Light's confrontation with former investigator Naomi Misora, and the visual pacing of this episode puts Ricky D in a sour mood for L's subsequent ice-cream-based collaborative surveillance. Naturally, Josh can't help but bring up some obscure space fantasy series in passing conversation, and the Cap'n tries desperately as always to keep everything movin' down the tracks!Subscribe now to Open Pike Night and discuss Star Trek's Strange New Worlds series with us!Support your favorite indie podcast in style with an SBI shirt!

This week we decide firmly if we are Team Light or Team L, as Death Note gets more intense per episode! We are joined by Death Note Superfan Cali D to break down Light's manipulation and ultimate murder of Ray Pember. Josh and Ricky D argue over whether Ray's actions were executed (sorry) out of stupidity or pure laziness, while the Cap'n attempts to keep everyone focused!Don't forget to check out Cali D's shop!Listen to the Cap'n's most recent appearance on Esoterica Cinema discussing Neon Genesis Evangelion with Jason!

This week the crew dives into the third and fourth episodes of Death Note family-style, but does that mean Ricky D cuts the show more or less slack? Josh sneaks in yet another HIMYM reference, and the Cap'n tries his best to shut it down immediately. Be warned.

Season 4 of SBI is here! This time, we are taking on the 2006 anime series Death Note, two episodes per week! To help us kick things off for Josh and Ricky D's first watch, we welcome Jason of Esoterica Cinema to SBI to talk Shinigami shenanigans and notebook no-no's. Will our first-timers jump into Death Note with the same enthusiasm they did Cowboy Bebop, or is this podcast rotting?
