Hold on…let me get my four other twin siblings on the mind phone and I’ll keep you updated.

Make a wish, loyal listeners. The Summer of Cyborg continues in part with chirping cicadas, blooming flowers, and pure existential dread. Anime Was (Not) A Mistake accelerates to rapidly approach the end of the series, with a few moments of horror and a final respite. We all wake up in a frozen time/space, 003 is determined to save Cairo from a deadly virus, 009 falls down the rabbit hole of memory, and a particular evil organization makes a new move in their sinister plan. Don’t lose hope though, even though the memories may fade, the feelings on this week’s episode will remain in your heart forever.

Saturday Jul 03, 2021
Anime Was (Not) A Mistake says don your swords and sandals, for a cybernetic clash of gods on today’s episode of our Summer of Cyborg series. With Black Ghost, seemingly out of the picture, a new world threat emerges. A pantheon of super beings, claiming to be of divine descent descends on our beloved team. Just what is this glorified pantheon and what of this “justice” they claim to fight for? Will humanity survive or surrender in the wake of this strange world order? We can only hope that the 00 cyborgs can band together and answer our prayers.

Sunday Jun 27, 2021
Our Summer of Cyborg event continues with a batch of episodes that is 25% Gallant and 75% Goofus. The conflict between the 00 Cyborgs and Black Ghost comes to an explosive end. When our heroes are brought to the doorstep of the evil organization, they decide to go on the offensive and confront the sinister Skull directly. With one conflict (seemingly) ended, the Cyborgs are enjoy a little bit of normalcy. 006 works to reignite his culinary dreams, while 002 burns some garlic. Rest assured that our friend in the Bronx does get a chance to shine, however. We hope you'll join us for another installment of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake, a podcast that only uses the freshest ingredients. *wink*

Anime Was (Not) A Mistake’s Summer of Cyborg continues in globe hopping pursuit of Black Ghost. Be it, Christmas in Paris, a foggy London theater, or in the midst of a civil war in the Republic of Muamba, today we have some cinematic movements for you all! 003 dances through the past, 007 is cast in a familiar role, and 008 tries to pick up the pieces of a broken homeland. These moments will cause you to question the line between machine and humanity, while delving deep into the backstories of three of our heroes. You know Dan, I once acted in a production of The Mists of London… alas, I’m getting ahead of myself, that is a story for a different time.
