We hope you'll join us as our vampiric celebration is finally put to rest with Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust.

We would cross oceans of time … and apparently the limits of anime for our viewers. Tonight, we continue the theme of creatures of the night, with something a little bit different. Come revel in the decadence that is Francis Ford Coppola's adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992). Romance, mystery, and horrible British accents await, just beyond these rustling curtains. The D stands for dang good movie on this episode of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake.

In a frightful departure from our usual anime fare, we will be taking a look at Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2. The year is 2000 and The Blair Witch Project has taken the world by storm. A group of ill-fated movie fans venture into the woods near Burkittsville, Maryland for a night of drinking, smoking, and well-mannered frivolity. They wake up with something far worse than a hangover and attempt to solve the mystery of their gruesome rave. Though this sequel lacks the magic of its predecessor, it makes up for it with hard rock, goth lore, and lots and lots of forest beers. Video never lies, but sometimes this podcast does.

On today's episode of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake, we're channeling some spooky vibes and taking a look at Blue Exorcist. This series focuses on a good-natured delinquent named Rin Okumura, who just so happens to be the son of Satan. *gasp* Alongside his brother Yukio, Rin enrolls at the prestigious True Cross Academy in order to become an Exorcist. Officially sanctioned by the Vatican (as religious scholars have confirmed), Exorcists fight to protect the human realm of Assiah against the demonic forces of Gehenna. Remember to stock up on Triple-C Holy Water and call Mephisto to arrange a carpool. We hope you'll join us as the story of Blue Exorcist ignites. *gasp again*

The leaves are changing, the pumpkin spice is flowing, and the Dragon Balls are being used for nefarious purposes yet again. We'll watch as Goku and his friends as they fight to save the Earth on a (slightly) cinematic scale. First, in Dragon Ball Z: Dead Zone, the Z Fighters face Garlic Jr. and his band of spice-themed henchmen. Next, the criminally underrated Dr. Wheelo unveils his plan to steal Goku's body (even if Chi-Chi disapproves) in Dragon Ball Z: The World's Strongest. We hope you'll join us for this action-packed anime double feature...just don't expect too much sass from Shenron, here on Anime Was (No)t A Mistake.
