A week and a day later and we are back with some anime review. We had to look around and take some time to see what was new and hot so we could give you amazing content. That said the new anime on our list are the hot of the gate Solo Leveling, and the return of Mashle magic and muscles. Both having amazing episodes and openings this week we break down this new block of anime. Also note that shangri-la Frontier will continue to be our third anime but they had a recap episode this week and who wants to review that nonsense.

Have you ever seen a take so hot that it’s just burned to a crisp and not fit for human consumption?? Well we have and it’s in the form of watchmojo’s top anime of all time list. Not only was this list one of the worst we have ever seen from that channel it makes you stop and wonder if the whole anime list department should be under new management. Seriously who green lit this list?? Go check out the video at watch mojo and support their other lists for sure…. Just not this one.

With the drop of the new Studio Ghibli movie “The Boy and the Heron” brings with a new review. That’s right we actually went to a movie theater and saw this film, that’s how much we want to bring you good content…. And this movie might not be that. Don’t get us wrong it’s a beautiful film but we wonder if something got lost in translation or if they might have focused a little too much on being different. Listen along and comment what you thought of the film wherever you follow us.
