In a quest for something to talk about, JP watched A LOT of mediocre anime. RPG Real Estate made him uncomfortable. The Castle Town Dandelion made him sleepy. Trapped in a Dating Sim: The World of Otome Games is Tough for Mob made him wish he was watching something else. The Dawn of the Witch made him confused. Fortunately, Kyle watched something good. To-Y is what Studio Gallop was up to before they became a Yu-Gi-Oh factory. We also talked about the Bob's Burgers movie because JP decided it was anime.

Discotek, Azuki, J-Novel Club, and Comikey announced new titles. Yoshihiro Togashi is back and writing more Hunter x Hunter. Seven Seas employees formed a union. All that and more on this week's exciting episode of The News Broom.

This week's episode is mostly dedicated to replying to DaLadybugMan's recommendation to pick a year and talk about the best and worst anime that came out. JP, Noel, and Kyle each chose two years to cover. This inadvertently led to a discussion spanning over 40 years of anime. After that, JP "reviews" Netflix's Bubble.

Summary

Holy cow there's a lot of news this week. Lots of things had dates announced and tons of new shows were green-lit. Anime Central was maybe a mess. I don't know. We didn't go. The Nintendo Switch sold more units than the PS4. That's cool. Anyway, have fun with your weekly news fix.

Summary

The stars have aligned! We got so many great listener questions that we didn't have time to answer them all. We talk about the situation with Anime Central. How our taste in anime has evolved over the years. Thing even get existential for a moment.

Summary

No news is good news, right? That's technically true, but it doesn't make for an exciting conversation. Join us this week as we attempt to squeeze water from the stone that is Rozen Maiden. We also all misread Jank Runk Family differently, which is what really matters at the end of the day.

Summary

Today marks the beginning of a new age -- After Yashahime. It's too early to tell if anime will still move our hearts, but our search is never-ending. Birdie Wing is a good indication that things will be alright. Tomodachi Game, while terrible, is also a good sign. This is because you can not have a Best Anime (like Yashahime, of course) without the existence of a Worst Anime (like Platinum End). Riki-Oh is great, but doesn't count because 1) It is not anime, and 2) It was released in 28 BY (Before Yashahime).

Summary

JP is still recovering from working overnights all last week. Kyle can't wait for all these new isekai shows coming up. Vinnie feels the same, but about the Robotech live-action movie. Are those all lies? The only way to find out is by listening to this week's exciting episode of The News Broom.

Summary

It's finally here -- The Final Yashahime Update. I know at least three of you wanted that. Before JP rambles for 20 minutes about that nonsense, Kyle talks about the differences in the approach to animation between a western vs. an eastern studio using Turning Red as an example. JP and Kyle also answer some Twitter questions about sports anime and the Crunchyroll x Funimation merger.

JP is losing his mind this week because he's working overnights. Do you want some Naruto shoes? Maybe. The creator of Riki-oh is making a Moby Dick manga. That's nuts. Belle is coming out in 4K. All that and more on this exciting episode of The News Broom.
