Nani Talks

The debate didn't end. We're back with The WhatList Continued, and this time, the gloves are off. Is your favorite show actually a masterpiece, or just a high-budget flop/slop?

In Episode 10.4, TC The Vision and Jazzy Jeff keep the energy high as they continue the "WhatList" discussion with Ella (Concept She) and Ann-Marie. While the last episode was an overview, this one is a deep dive into the specifics. We're looking at the Netflix Anime Run can they truly overtake Crunchyroll as the king of anime streaming? We also break down the shift toward Anime in the Cinema. With massive hits like the Demon Slayer and Chainsaw Man movies , is the industry becoming a "money-hungry" cash grab, or is this the evolution of the medium? Plus, we've got fresh recommendation. This is for the culture who want the real, unfiltered truth about the culture.

Is the current anime season actually delivering, or are we just watching the same Isekai tropes on repeat? Nani Talks joins forces with Ella (Concept She) and Ann-Marie to filter the mid from the masterpieces.

What are the mandem watching right now? This week, we're giving the the 'Whatlist' the latest anime drops, talking Gachiakuta, and putting a massive spotlight on Impound Comics.

Welcome back to Nani Talks, the only anime podcast for the culture. In Episode 9.4, we're splitting the show into two major segments.

First up is the WhatList, where we review what we've been watching and what's making noise in the scene. We're chopping it up, dropping some fresh recommendations, and giving our unfiltered takes. (And yes, we even debate if Oda has or will surpassed Shakespeare). Plus, get the latest updates on our work at Somerset House and acceptance onto the Black Business Residency!

For the second half, we shift to the Spotlight. We are giving major flowers to Brent Trayce Sands the creator of Impound Comics. We break down how a single father from Sacramento built a grassroots superhero universe from the ground up. If you're looking for diverse, street-level heroes like Anthony "Impound" Endsley and Seraph, this is the indie empire you need to be reading.

Is Manga is winning because it treats audiences as "readers" rather than "collectors"?

Is the "Golden Age" of superheroes officially over? Today the mandem are joined by Big Miko to settle the ultimate debate: why is Manga outselling the entire US comic industry by millions of copies?

In this episode of Nani Talks, we break down the "shortfall" of Western comics, from the confusing barrier to entry for new readers to the superior Manga-to-Anime pipeline that creates a global cultural economy. We explore how Manga titles like Demon Slayer and Sakamoto Days are reaching diverse demographics that Marvel and DC have left behind. Big Miko weighs in on whether American comics have lost their soul to "collector culture" while Manga focused on telling stories that actually resonate with the people-dem. Whether you're a hardcore Otaku or a casual reader, this deep dive into the 2026 anime scene is one you can't miss. #NaniTalks #MangaVsComics #BigMiko #AnimePodcast #Marvel #DC #DemonSlayer #MangaSales #Naniverse Follow Big Miko: @realbigmiko & Naniverse : @Naniverse_io • Like + Subscribe if you want more deep anime breakdowns. • Drop a comment we read and reply.

Has anime lost its soul now that it's mainstream? The mandem debate the pros and cons of the industry explosion. Plus, things get heated in the most chaotic Anime Alphabet Game yet.

Welcome back to Nani Talks Episode 9.2! We are still rolling with the viral sensation Big Miko. First up, we tackle the "Mainstream Dilemma." Is it a good thing that everyone and their grandma watches anime now, or are we losing the culture that made it special? We discuss the "money-hungry" energy entering the industry and what we miss about the gatekeeping era.

Then, it's war. We play the Anime Alphabet Game (A-Z Challenge). The rules are simple: Name a character for every letter, 4 wrong or non answered letters and you're out. Each failed attempt will recieve a letter towards the word NANI. Play along in the comments and see if you can beat the mandem. #NaniTalks #AnimeChallenge #AnimeQuiz #BigMiko #AnimeDebate #Podcast #MainstreamAnime

The finale with Blanco is here. We break down his new project 'Paradise on a Lifeboat', his dream collaborations, and we settle the debate: Which anime would actually work as a live-action movie? Welcome back to Nani Talks - Episode 8.4. It was only right we gave Blanco his flowers in this final instalment. We put the spotlight on his latest project, 'Paradise on a Lifeboat', diving into his creative process, his favourite producers to cook up with, and the artists he still wants to feature with. Then, we switch lanes to the big screen. The mandem discuss the "Live Action Curse." Which live-action movies would have been better as anime? And which anime series are actually ready for a Hollywood adaptation? Plus, we drop our "Must Watch" film lists.

UK legend Blanco joins the Naniverse Family for a chaotic episode. We're debating if the new wave of Anime Movies is a scam, and asking the uncomfortable question: Are Hisoka and Orochimaru actually predators?

Welcome back to Nani Talks. In Episode 8.3, we are joined by Blanco to chop it up about the state of the culture. We dive deep into the current trend of "Anime in Cinema." Is the shift from TV series to theatrical releases a natural evolution, or just a greedy cash grab by the industry? We discuss if this money hungry energy is ruining the storytelling we love.

Later, things get dark as we analyse two of anime's most controversial villains: Orochimaru (Naruto) and Hisoka (Hunter x Hunter). We look at their obsession with younger characters and ask if the "creepy villain" trope has gone too far.
