Anime Doubleplay

The battle is on! We talk mainstream battle manga and how the newest titles are similar and different from the legendary Big 3! Mary also talks about the Netflix Death Note movie and a new shonen favorite, the Promised Neverland. But we can't pretend our shoujo fans! Some Ouran High School Host Club and K-on! is also headed your way on this action packed ep!

Thomas is back with a bang as he brings research and hard facts to the age old question, is anime getting better or worse? Also, we dive into the watery world of Gargantia of the Verdurous Planet, our usual weeklies and...a lot of oppai!

Sometimes, manga doesn't translate to anime the way we thought. We talk about that! And we mix things up in our usual anime reviews. Instead, we play a little game. Plus we dig into one of our favorite anime movies! But wait...where's Thomas?

In a week filled with down episodes, we take a sec to recall how we're feeling about the Summer season so far and our favorites #TSUREDURECHILDRENROCKS. Also, we touch on anime that has disappointed us over the years. Shows that looked great...but actually sucked. What a shame =(

Interview episode! We talk Interviews with Monster Girls and interview our friend and 2D animator John @JohnnyBoges about all sorts of anime and gaming. We finally get a long conversation about Boruto and its potential, jump into about 2 dozen different anime (See the tags) and relive some of our anime glory days. This episode is chalk full of stuff you don't wanna miss!

A lot of great weekly anime this time around, including a surprising performance from Gamers! Speaking of surprising, we talk about some anime that really surprised us with their quality! Aaaaaaand, how can you not like Shelter by Porter Robinson?

Ahoy! We bring ye a pirate episode! But probably not in the way you expect. Yes, of course we talk about One Piece but what about anime pirating? We also fight over minute details in Koi to Uso, wrangle the more Haikyuu greatness and talk about how Boruto is pretty decent all while Thomas munches on a half eaten pizza!

KOI TO USO! Mary binges the episodes right before the pod and freaks out about the romance and drama of her favorite summer series so far. We also dig into the shortcomings of one of our favorite anime/manga of all time, Katekyo Hitman Reborn. A lot of anime gets thrown around this episode so make sure you keep up!

Everyone’s talking about it. Everyone hates it. But do we? We dive into the Death Note trailer but, more importantly, why Death Note is so damn good to begin with. We also get you thinking with some pretty intellectual titles about cultural assimilation, human sentience and…a high school quiz bowl team?

Check out our Summer 2017 preview where we go into the best and worst of next season’s titles! Cute boys and girls do things this season and it seems…boring? Also, Thomas defends the honor the Redline and did anyone ask for some Bleach redemption? Mary sure did.
