In this episode, we look at the largest gathering of geeks in Florida, the latest big anime announcements, and Studio Ghibli's latest movie!
MegaCon, Florida's all-encompassing geek media mecca, took place this past weekend at the Orange County Convention Center. Kent and Shamus give the rundown on that, the major happenings, the feedback, and the convention's anime presence.
We even go over a panel report from Juan Sanmiguel of the Orlando Science Fiction Society from Sunday's panel "Anime 2014: What to Expect" Thanks, Juan!
Then we change gears to all the tremendous news that broke out in the world of anime that everyone missed while going to MegaCon! A new Lupin the 3rd movie directed by Takeshi Koike, a new season of Psycho Pass, new Shinichiro Watanabe anime(besides Space Dandy), the Attack on Titan English cast announcements, and more!
Finally, we give our thoughts on Hayao Miyazaki's final film, The Wind Rises, including the low gross at the U.S. Box office and what that could mean for future anime theatrical releases.
Check out all our podcast episodes in the archive and come out to Anime Nite Orlando on April 17th! (If you can handle it!)
Music: Flashman (Big Brother Remix) by Mega Ran and Fly Battery Zone by Benjamin Briggs

Propeller Anime Radio #14: MegaCon Recap, Tons of 2014 Anime News, The Wind Rises
This weekend, the latest movie from Studio Ghibli and final film of the legendary Hayao Miyazaki, The Wind Rises, plays in theaters throughout the nation this weekend. And would you look at that: Orlando's getting it!
We're going.
If that doesn't work for you, we urge you to see the movie this weekend at another time if possible. Anime rarely gets played in theaters and there are so many more times Kent can wear a dress!
Speaking of Kent, his otaku expiration hits this weekend and we'll be celebrating his impending doom Saturday night at Bikkuri Lounge, located at 1919 E. Colonial Dr. Orlando, FL. You know, the same place we've had Anime Nite Orlando for the past year. (Except it's called DING! this time.)
RSVP on Facebook!
The party is FREE to attend. There will be videogames including some golden age fighters and retro classics. Flail your body wildly to crazy 80s/90s dance music with videogame remixes and other weirdness thrown in. We'll even have a pinata to smash! Plus drink specials at the bar and delicious Japanese cuisine available for order across the hall.
Kent wants to see you there. As he enters old age, please make him feel special. He also likes whiskey.
See you all this weekend!
