We tease the rest of the show and continue with our more aggressive introduction. We also announce a little note about last week’s podcast.
First Topic: (4:15 - 31:00)
FUNimation obtains the exclusive North American digital distribution rights for FMA: Brotherhood.

- How will this affect the frequency of animation dubs?
Anime Genesis Promo: 31:00 - 32:00
Classic Benu promo of him tearing into Justin Sevakis. Nice use of the ECW theme in the background. Anime Genesis “The first and the last word on anime.”

Elevator Music I, "Ripple": 31:00 - 32:30
Second Segment: 32:30 - 1:03:31
What role does American television play in producing future Otaku?
- We've never really gone into what influenced us to become anime fans.
- What triggered the shift between casual observers to a full-blown Otakus.
- What are the varying degrees of anime obsession?
- Do you see yourself being a hardcore fans five or ten years down the road?
Elevator Music II: 1:03:31 - 1:04:20
Take a break, drink some tea and listen to this awesome interlude, that’s if you still want me to tie a yellow ribbon round an old oak tree.
Final Segment: 1:04:20 - 1:03:31
It is the final segment of the Anime 3000 Podcast. I know, kind of sad once you realize that it’s not really that epic. What is epic is having a mushy send off for arguably the father of this podcast. Oh yeah, Matthew happens to find some time in his busy schedule to join us as well. Half kidding of course!
