GeatsCast reacts to Azuma and I conversation.
Me: I wouldn't say that. That sounds lame.
Azuma: I would have agreed... but you're not spooky, you're just horny.
Me: I know... But I would just save the day through my actions while just saying very little.
Azuma: How stoic of you. Also... why did you buy me that tiny cow-print bikini suit set? After I was transformed back into a human from being a Chemy?!
Me: What!? I mean, it came with the cute horns, bowtie, and thigh-highs.
Azuma: Honey... we have kids and-
Me: Heavens, no! I'll never store it in our house here. I have all of your guy's lewd sets under tight lock and key. All are organized and categorized with your names.
Azuma: Oh... Okay. What if your older kids discovered it?
Me: They don't know the location. Plus... it's mostly Takaharu, Ziin, Jiro, and Tametomo that has the most out of all you guys.
Azuma: Okay, okay... Alright. Also, thanks for picking me up from that above-average seminar. How are the kids doing?
Me: Doing great... Our eldest son became class president. Our eldest daughter got through tennis and passed her grades. "Baby" daughter is doing phenomenally well in reading and writing thanks to the tutor I hired. Youngest son is well... proficient in most things, but he's taking a liking to playing a kalimba.
Azuma: Oooo... Great for them. I'm impressed. Did you cook dinner?
Me: Almost ready anyway. The kids ate first, and I'm just waiting for you. So we can eat together.
Azuma: After the kids go to sleep... let me wear that cow bikini set you just bought.
"Spooky deity"? Isn't Ace supposed to be scared of ghosts? Why is he talking about that lmao
And this conversation just wildly careened into horniness then wholesomeness lmao

Obscure Animation Subject #61: 8 Man
Originally posted on April 21, 2023.
Also known as 8th Man in the US, this anime was produced by TCJ (now Eiken) and aired on TBS from November 7, 1963 to December 31, 1964 for 56 episodes. Its based on the manga by Kazumasa Hirai with illustrations by Jiro Kuwata.
Detective Yokoda is murdered by criminals and his body is retrieved by Professor Tani. Tani takes the body to his laboratory where he attempts to transfer Yokoda's life force into an android body, an experiment that has already failed seven times. Yokoda is reborn as an android.
Renamed to 8 Man, he is able to dash at impossible speeds as well as shape-shift into other people. He takes on his former body, this time taking on the name "Hachiro Azuma." He keeps this identity a secret, known only to Tani and his police boss, Chief Tanaka.
Even his girlfriend Sachiko and his friend Ichiro are not aware that he is an android. As 8-Man, Hachiro fights crime–eventually avenging his own murder. To rejuvenate his powers, he smokes "energy" cigarettes that he carries in a case. 8 Man is Japan's earliest cyborg superhero.
8 Man was so popular for its significance, the franchise spawned two live-action films, along with a 4-episode OVA series 8 Man After, produced by J.C.Staff. The series was released from August 21 to November 22, 1993, and was later adapted in manga form in 1994.
A manga sequel, 8 Man Infinity, was released between 2005 and 2007. The show also spawned a public domain cartoon account to get its username and profile. Isn’t that cool or what?! While TCJ had bigger latter successes like Sazae-san, 8 Man was an important part of its history.
