The Weekly Stuff Podcast #418 – Elden Ring Impressions and Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Season 2 Review
It’s time for another episode of The Weekly Stuff Podcast with Jonathan Lack & Sean Chapman, a weekly audio show that explores the worlds of film, television, and video games. You can subscribe for free in Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.
With the hotly anticipated Season 2 of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba having drawn to a close in Japan two weeks ago, we finally caught up with the astonishing run of episodes comprising the series’ “Entertainment District” Arc, which may just be the most impressively produced set of TV animation episodes we’ve ever seen. We spend a good long time gushing over the animation, the direction, the music, the voice acting, the characters, and everything else we can think to discuss about one of the best Shōnen anime ever made. But before all that, we’ve also got the surprise announcement of Pokémon’s 9th generation, reports of Call of Duty skipping 2022, and Sean’s continuing adventures hacking a refurbished Nintendo 2DS to talk about – and, oh yeah, the biggest video game launch of the year with From Software’s Elden Ring, which we give our first impressions on after a few days of play. It is, suffice to say, a sublime experience, even if we’ve got way more to play before doing a real ‘review.’
Enjoy!
