Ah, well, nevertheless, here's the second half of our discussion with the excellent SpaceQueenEmily on the Zone of the Enders 2167 IDOLO OVA! Mentally, flip back and forth between a church wedding and a climactic showdown in space as needed, that's our advice.

Hello Giant Robot FM listeners! Buckle in for a cozy history episode dedicated to some production history specific to the Idolo OVA - it's just you and Stephen and pmc.
Note from pmc: I bungled some of the roles here, turns out the actor for Radium is so unknown, imdb editors buried his credit deep in the weeds. Whoops! That's what I get for doing dub trivia without watching the OVA first.

This episode was originally published for Simulator patrons on August 1st, 2023.
At long last, here is our look into the history behind Assault Suits Valken, the tremendously influential 2D mecha action game that spawned and continues to influence countless other games - almost a sub-genre unto itself. Chronicling the original release, Cybernator, the ill-fated PS2 version, and of course the recent Declassified on Switch, Stephen and pmc walk you through the people and history of Valken before talking about their own experiences playing the game in 2023.
