Every week, Dai-Cast Supplemental will give you a chance to learn a little something more about Japan, and allow us to clear out our archives of old topics which didn’t make it into the full length show. All in 3-5 minute easily digestible chunks!
This week on Dai-Cast Supplemental, Ian brings you his take on Philip Pullman’s “Golden Compass” in Japan, teaches you a bit about Shinto, and examines the poses and prose in Yakusa 3 and it’s rap music. Plus, mentions of our new website features, and why you should never vote for Beej in our Dai-Cast host poll.
[editors note: The rap song that Ian "performs" are actual translated lyrics from the hit rap song "Kudan" referenced in the episode...]

Every week, Dai-Cast Supplemental will give you a chance to learn a little something more about Japan, and allow us to clear out our archives of old topics which didn’t make it into the full length show.
