Just as watching anime can become a slippy slope of addiction, so too is manga.

We also discuss the other manga we would love to read, and some anime news such as the new Demon Slayer movie releasing in March and the first episode of Attack on Titan, the final season part 3.

Episode 133 - Anime for the Little Ones: A Parent’s Guide
Monday Feb 20, 2023
Monday Feb 20, 2023
Now that we're raising a little one, the discussion has come up on when is the best time to introduce all our favorite anime shows and movies. While many parents might not turn to anime as a means of entertainment for their kiddos, it's actually packed full of different subjects and learning opportunities. So many shows open a whole world of new things not explored in American television such as learning about different cultures, igniting creativity, tackling weighty subjects and developing reading skills in watching subtitled anime and potentially manga. Obviously, not all anime is suited for all ages, so in this episode we discuss the shows we'll be introducing to our daughter at certain ages - and we couldn't be more excited!

Episode 130 - Motivational Anime
Thursday Feb 09, 2023
Thursday Feb 09, 2023
Outsiders unfamiliar with anime wouldn't label it as an inspirational medium, but nearly every weeb will cite their favorite shows as motivation, or at least inspiring, in some aspect of their lives. While watching our favorite anime characters show their motivation through dramatic or hype moments, many of us identify the themes in a more realistic approach: the necessity of teamwork, kindness and empathy and the importance of perseverance and hard work.
