Time for episode 178! We started Symphogear! Started, because this is the first of 5 seasons. Strap in, we're doing another long one. And it's pretty wild, considering the all the nonsense in the story. Good nonsense, by the way. Check it out on Crunchyroll.

Time for episode 175! We watched Sasameki Koto, or Whispered Words. And in contrast to the last episode, this girl is generally competent, but is unable to catch the attention of her best friend who she's in love with. Such is life. Unfortunately, it isn't currently available on any streaming services.

Episode 174 is here! And it's June again, which means pride time! And we start with There's No Freaking Way I'll Be Your Lover! Unless... And that's a mouthful, so most people call it Watanare. Anyway, it follows failgirl Renako as she somehow catches the attention of multiple girls. And it's mostly fun. Check it out on YouTube!

Content Warning: this anime has a scene depicting an attempted sexual assault. This is discussed in the podcast.

Welcome to episode 173! We finally talk about an anime that's been in the docket for years, Akiba Maid War! And what a strange and fun anime. Maids being gangs in the criminal underworld. And all the drama (plus blood and violence, as a warning) that comes with it. Check it out on Hidive!

Welcome to episode 170! We returned to the My Hero Academia spinoff, Vigilantes! Season 2 is not quite as good as season 1. For a variety of reasons. Including, weirdly enough, a sidelining of its protagonists. Check it out on Crunchyroll.

Time for episode 169! We returned to the beautiful, and somewhat melancholic world of Frieren: Beyond Journey's End, by watching season 2! And it largely delivers what the first season did. Although, it doesn't quite hit the same highs. Check it out on Crunchyroll.
