And finally, we delve into the dark world of child pornography, and how Unicef wants to ban it in Japan. All this, and not much more, on this weeks Dai-Cast.

This week, we’re back with the bare minimum needed for the cast, trading Jason for the double X that is Eryn Derden. We’ve roped her in to talk about learning English from Cosplayers with Cosplish, then it’s on with the Rape Whistles! Plus, cosplayers invade Osaka’s airports, and you too can now racially (?) profile otaku! All this plus Beej’s final “Webcomic of the Week” on Dai-Cast.
