Naja B knows a thing or two about otome games, or more like 1 million things. On her site, Blerdy Otome, Naja reviews otome games from big and small developers, interviews developers, highlights Black girl friendly and diverse games, reviews bird manga, and so much more. Naja joined me on the podcast and let me pick her brain on what otome games are, her site, diversity in this landscape, and so much more. We get into a lot of random side tangents (ie a sexy bird?) and really get to know each other!

This week on The Wonder of Anime, streamer and cosplayer Simone Malcolm is in the expert seat! Simone is a multi-hyphenate creative who writes, cosplays, and streams. An animanga enthusiast who loves to nerd out over music, gaming, fashion, and pop culture. Simone comes to us with the ever “controversial” shounen, Black Clover. It seems people either love it or hate it, with no in-between. We get into what makes Black Clover so special, is Yuno really a Sasuke clone, why people hate it so much, and more!
