In a change from the normal format, Rachael answers the questions people have asked her most, from BL to weeabos!

Rachael and the lovely Ruth discuss Bisco Hatori’s screwball romcom. Contains spoilers and evil fangirl laughter.

Rachael fangirls about her beloved Death Note and why if you should watch any anime, it should be this one. Contains spoilers and bad, bad voice acting.

So what’s this all about, then? Rachael sums up the mission statement of Not Just Tentacles.

It’s a Christmas special (of sorts!) Rachael examines Tokyo Ghoul and how it fails to live up to the promise of its premise. Includes character assassination, bad impressions and singing. You have been warned.

In this, the show’s first episode, Rachael discusses how and why she became an anime fan to begin with, the magnificence of Death Note, and why living in the UK basically sucks.
