In this episode we decided that box anime is cool. And by “box anime” we mean, “Kekkaishi.” Also, ice cream. OSMnotes Okay so admittedly I _just _beat MGS4, so at the moment I’m busy going “OMG MGS4 MGS4!!!! ” therefore _actual _show notes aren’t exactly on my mind. Though I am sad to find out the Wal-Mart sale is apparently already over so… oops. Hopefully those of you out there will have _already _realized this deal and have bought one! The rest of you should follow my lead and steal I mean _borrow _them from all your friends that just obtained those PS3s and play Metal Gear Solid 4 on them. I want to say that this new Metal Gear is good enough that you’ll want to buy a PS3 anyway, but I know that’s just the MGS fanboy in me and that overall the 360 is still the better gaming system. … Maybe. Kekkaishi is also an awesome show and an even more awesome manga. You should go buy all of the manga now. They have 14 volumes so far out so you have plenty to catch up on! Oh and email us (osmcast@gmail DOT com), comment, voice mail, let us know you exist, the usual. Metal Gear!!!
