RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!
• K-ON! meets Kamen Rider?!
• AKIRA has his eyes on Justin Timberlake?!
• And Oxford has Hentai in the Dictionary?!
All that and some last hurrahs on this, the final episode of Friday ACE! (At least until we come back after the hiatus.)
SHOW NOTES:
Well, this is the end for now. So weird to imagine that it’s been a year and some change since the project was given the green light. Even stings a bit that I do have to temporarily pull the plug, but rest assured that Friday ACE will return, my valiant listeners.
Not much I can really say that hasn’t been said already: Massive props to Team ACE (Joseph Luster and Julian Gnam), Patrick Macias, and every single person who supported the show in their own way. This could not have taken off without the lot of you.
Also, bit of a heads up that I will be at this year’s Anime Central, (hopefully) running the Tokusatsu panel. Stay tuned to my personal twitter (@Gaijinder) for more details when they develop.
So for now, I leave you with this. Shoot me a message over at fridayaceDOTousaATgmailDOTcom and I’ll see you next ACE!
