Delicious in Dungeon might seem out of left field for the studio that put out shows like Kill La Kill and Cyberpunk Edgerunners, but it's just something from the studio that also made Little Witch Academia.

I usually don't criticize a show harshly on the podcast just because it's bad, but Tales of Wedding Rings is a different story. This show is terrible in some aspects that are truly remarkable, and taking the time to roast it.

Abridged Series are a unique form of art that originated from people's love for a particular show. They are quite different from the shows they pay homage to and have gained significant popularity with at least a dozen such series available on YouTube. It's worth taking a moment to consider how and why so many of them exist, and where they fit within anime fandom.

Yu Yu Hakusho is a formative show for many otaku and is considered to be the best example of a tournament arc in anime. Its emotional connections are what endear the viewer to its colorful cast of delinquents and street punks, and that's where its live-action counterpart can't keep up.

The Boy and The Heron is Myazki's 12 film, and at the age of 82, he's clearly a master of his craft, but this isn't entirely the jewel that people usually expect from the director of Princess Mononoke (my Favorite Film) or the Oscar-winning Spirited Away.

Anyone listening to this Probably Knows what Scott Pilgrim is. Most have seen the 2010 Film By Edger Write. So, it's a breath of fresh air to see an alternate take on the story that treats its female lead as both a prize to be won and an innocent party to the emotional wreckage she leaves in her wake.
