theOtaku.com Anime Podcast VII - Ep. 6
Ichigo, if you haven't heard about "Men Who Stare At Goats", I now need to ask... have you heard about "The Expendables" yet? It's like, action star power overload... it'll be fun.
And no, guys, I'm not watching Twilight. Don't be stupid.

Caption Battle: The Evil Not Seen...
"It's that time again..."
"To find more retail shelf space for another Guitar Hero game?"
"To take it to Renaissance Italy, one hidden blade assassination at a time?"
"No... it's time for this week's caption battle!"
But first, last week's winners:
In third place, being just geeky enough to be extra funny: KeenHavoc!
Wario: "Hey, did you see this awesome valley?!"
Sonic: "Man I hate bump mapping."
In second place with some nice deadpan observational humour: darknessslayer!
One of the better games Sonic has been in recently.
And in the coveted first place, with a kinda cheap but undeniably funny shot... Miss Anonymous!
Sonic could have lived without the knowledge that Wario was wearing a thong.
There were a few great lines in there this week, so good work. Moving on...
This week we'll go with an old screencap courtesy of Nehszriah featuring the series Cyborg 009 (the 2001 series, specifically). On the left is Cyborg 006 (alias Chang Changku), on the right is Dr. Isaac Gilmore. Go for it:
You know the drill: type up the funniest, wittiest, most original caption you can think of for the screencap above in the comments below. Also, if any of you would like some tips on writing a great caption, you can find those here.
And like always, theOtaku is open to all submissions and suggestions for weekly feature content. You have a screencap you want used, you can PM me and we can do somethin' about it. So good luck, and remember: "Stick to beer, you're in the clear" was totally busted on Mythbusters.
theOtaku.com Anime Podcast VII - Ep. 5
Hey, sorry guys, can't come out and play right now. Mom and dad grounded me for not having posted enough news over at theOtaku.com again. If I can get more news in time, maybe I can meet up with you guys later... or, if you guys can help with the news, mom and dad'll let me out sooner.
Also, who else feels that "IRL caption battles" are go? If yes, I'm open to grabbin' 'em. It'll make for a fun month...

Caption Battle: Baby Got Back... WAH-HAHAHAHA!
"It's that time again..."
"To DVR South Park?"
"To begrudgingly play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 because it's an excellent game of quality even though we have ethical issues with Activision as a company?"
"No... it's time for this week's caption battle!"
But first, last week's winners:
In third place with a stealth-morbid one-liner: Hikari Mogami!
You can't be on the Naughty List if there is no Santa....
In second place, also with a stealth-morbid one-liner that also has a clever ring to it: Shineska!
Bringing together old men two pieces at a time.
And in the coveted first place, being not quite so stealth-morbid but tying all the pieces of the picture together harmonically... lazyweird1!
Question: How many bishounen does it take to fix an old guy?
Answer: Don't bother. The kawaii background animals could do better.
Ahhhh, I should have finished this sooner... ah well... moving on!
This week's screenshot actually comes not from anime, but from the Wii! Courtesy of the ever-helpful Hisaishi and featuring the game Super Smash Bros: Brawl, we have Wario on the left and Sonic on the right. Have fun:
