Just in time for spooky season... Seth has mysteriously vanished! Not really, he's fine, he's just moving. In his stead, Matt has recruited his wife Natascha to chat about the Yo-kai Watch series and why you should all feel bad for not playing it.

Natascha's Note: DJ KJ is not Komasan, but Komasan's brother. She misspoke and apologizes for the egregious error.

This is our most revealing episode yet; focused on answering many burning questions. Has Symphony of the Night become overrated over the years or is it still as impressive - or "crazy" - as it was nearly 30 years ago? Is the soundtrack weird or perfect? Who is "The SotN Guy"? How hot is Alucard? And maybe most importantly: why does it sound like this down here?
