Tonight on GeekNights, we review the 1993 anime movie Ramayana: The Legend of Prince Rama. It's long, and there are fighter jets. YMMV on this one, but if you enjoy Dynasty Warriors it might be for you. Also Hanuman is OP. In the news, the live-action sequel to Whisper of the Heart will be in theaters February 3. Shin Ultraman is exactly what you'd expect.Related LinksForum ThreadGeekNights Wednesday - Ramayana: The Legend of Prince Rama (1993)Things of the DayRym - The Biggest Lie Anyone Ever Told MeScott - The Vostell Concrete Book Mystery

Each week, Rym and Scott of The Front Row Crew settle in for GeekNights Wednesdays: Anime Manga Comics, a focused conversation that digs into the stories and artistry shaping their favorite corners of pop culture. This isn't a surface-level news recap, but a deep dive driven by genuine fandom and critical perspective. You'll hear them dissect the latest chapters of a compelling manga, unpack the themes of a recent anime series, or explore the narrative craft in both mainstream and indie comics. The discussion naturally expands to include related films from Asia and the unique, often chaotic, experiences of anime conventions. The tone is conversational and insightful, blending informed analysis with the enthusiasm of two friends who have been engaging with this material for years. Tuning into this podcast means joining a long-running dialogue that treats anime, manga, and comics as serious artistic mediums worthy of thoughtful discussion, all while never losing the sense of fun that brought them to it in the first place. It’s a weekly check-in for anyone who wants to move beyond simple reviews and into more substantive talk about the creative works that define geek culture.
