  • Episode 188: Are We Still Doing This Thing?
    Feb 19 2025

    Short answer is sort of. We're back, it's been a minute and that's kind of been a pattern, for good reason but we'll get to that. We mentioned a few episode ago that the scope and scale of the podcast was likely to change and if you've been a long time listener you've already likely noticed. We've made the decision to keep moving in an even more casual direction that'll honestly look a lot more like this episode in terms of format, what do I mean by that? Really the structure and frequency of our episodes are the things that'll be changing most. We'll be continuing with our kind of sporadic upload schedule for the foreseeable future and our content will be a lot less comprehensive and a lot more based on what we're watching rather than focusing on a season as a whole. We've had a blast these past 4 years covering anime, and we don't want to hang that up but the reality is as always that things change and this how things shook out. Thank you to all of the folks who've tuned in either for an episode or since the beginning, we're not going away, we'll still be around bullshitting about cartoons from time to time, but it feels worthy of an explanation so there it is.

  • Episode 186: Don't Drop That DanDaDan
    Nov 28 2024

    We had lofty goals of talking about all things Arcane this week, but reality had other plans. As such we're talking about our favorite show this season, and maybe anime of the year, DanDaDan. We're 8 episodes in at the time of recording and it has been a wild ride to say the least. All hype aside, this one feels like something special so we're dedicating this whole episode to seeing if we can put our finger on just what that is.

  • Episode 185: It's the Looney Toons Babies of DragonBall
    Nov 9 2024

    We're finally at the end of our first impressions for the fall season, and we managed to do it before the season was half over so that's not nothing. We've got a couple of returning titles and one or two new ones in this episode before finally dropping our top 5 new and top 3(sort of) returning titles of the season. It's a little slower than some falls in the past, but there are a number of really solid titles on offer so tune in to see which ones we're keeping up with.

  • Episode 184: Isekai Dairy Industry
    Oct 23 2024

    We're back and we've got another 12 or so new titles to talk about for first impressions this week. This episode is pretty heavy on the fantasy titles for the fall season, but once again there's a little bit of everything this week as well as a number of pretty surprising titles. This week is pretty much exclusively new shows, except for one remake of an older title, but we'll be hitting some of the returning series in an episode soon!

  • Episode 183: Don't Say Magical Girls Three Times
    Oct 9 2024

    Fall is here and along with cooler temperatures we've got a solid crop of new first impressions to get to. We've got twelve new titles to cover this week ,and a lot of them were pretty damn good actually with one in particular really impressing us. There's all sorts of new stuff to get to, but overall we've got some good ones right off the bat. The next few episodes will be more of the same hopefully as we've got a lot to watch this fall.

  • Episode 182: It's Tagged As Magical Sex Shift
    Oct 5 2024

    We're back once again proving that inconsistency is key. We've wrapped up the Summer season and naturally we have thoughts, but only a few because we've got the Fall season breathing down our necks. There are a good few titles that peak our interest and we've got some speculation before the onslaught of new shows to take in. Curious about where to start this season? We'll have you covered in this episode and our first impressions hopefully out soon.

  • Episode 181: But What About Them Returning Series Though?
    Aug 30 2024

    The end of the Summer season is rapidly approaching so we figured we should do a little ranking to see where things stand. Rather than categorizing every show we're just hitting a top five new and top three returning series plus a couple of honorable mentions that maybe didn't make the cut. This list is a little more freeform than you're maybe used to if you've been listening to us for a while now but hey it still gives you an idea of what we're watching and what you might want to catch up on.
