  • Why 86 Could Be a Modern Masterpiece
    In episode 4 of the New Wave Anime podcast, Nate and Eli take a look at our most anticipated anime of the season, 86. 86 is a sci-fi mech LN series which, in our opinion, is the best ongoing LN series in general. The anime will be premeiring on Crunchyroll on 10 April. You don’t want to miss it.
