[Warning: mild spoilers for the ending of Bleach if you care who Ichigo ends up with but you'll know it's coming] It's cannon vs. canon in this episode as we talk love... fictional anime love between fictional anime characters in fictional anime settings with fictional anime romance! Mostly. We talk our favorite fictional pairings that did and didn't happen like LeBron James x Bugs Bunny and that one guy x that one girl who kinda liked him or something. Listen in and find out what ships really set our sails (also Ro if you're reading this then please let me on your pod to talk MY BIG SHIP I would ask you personally but I'm pretty sure you hate me)!

We talk about an episode with a lot of talking this week on ATTALK ON TITAN! Do we have as much to say as the characters in Attack on Titan had to say about each other? Not really. There was an awful lot of talking but does that mean this episode is all kinds of awful? Listen in (or don't I'm not your mom) and find out!

Special thanks to animeoftheweak for requesting this week's show! One of us certainly enjoyed it a lot more than the other but who was it!? Anyways, we're talking calligraphy, iyashikei, and Barack Obama impersonation in this week's episode where we cover Barakamon! Also demons. One of us is a demon apparently.

Oh boy, it's another double feature due to poor planning and anxiety attacks! We're discussing two episodes this week and both are a part of the Connie villain arc! Truthfully, I don't really know what to put here. I'm tired. I recorded this episode somewhere different from normal and I didn't account for microphone mobility so my big head kept slamming into the mic so... there's some forehead action in this episode? Not much but it's there just so we're both aware.

You got characters. You make them fight. This is the essence of the tournament arc and also little kids playing with their action figures but in this instance we're talking about the swole super veiny beefy muscles of the Dark Tournament arc from Yu Yu Hakusho. It's got a cool name but does it have the style to rock the pompadour and shirtless flair it throws at the viewers? We'll find out by discussing amongst ourselves the things we liked, the fights we hated, and the original Shadow the Hedgehog known as Hiei. You only hate me because I bring you the truth.

Attack on Titan went back to basics in this episode as we saw plenty of Tighty Fighty and "we gotta make some bad decisions" just like in the days of yore and Connie gets his own personal villain arc as he goes to help his mommy while the march continues (even if that march is at a wonderful 10 frames per second). After the hype beast that was the previous two episodes, can this we even hope to measure up? Maybe. We talk DOA and the horrible future that could be the Attack on Titan movie finale all in this episode while talking about the episode sometimes too!

I was originally gonna call this New New to Yu Yu but that sounded really dumb so I'm not going to do that (for now unless someone tells me it a good idea then I'll totally double down forever on it). Alright so you may be looking at this title and thinking "oh wow they're gonna talk about a longer anime for once that isn't Attack on Titan wow mom go get the presents out early cause it's a Christmas miracle in February" but this is sadly not the case because Audrey isn't in this episode and it's just me talking for an hour about how much I love Kuwabara and MAYBE some Yu Yu Hakusho or something in between those long passionate declarations of undying love. So Yu Yu Hakusho. Is it good? Yeah. It's pretty good. You know that already though. It's 30 years old at this point! You don't talk about something for 30 years unless it can actually manage to hold up. How well it does manage to do that though? Pretty okay, I guess. You can just listen to the episode and find out unless the audio of a man casually going insane by rambling to himself is off putting to you at which point I'd stay away. We'll probably do this again. I hope. Maybe I can have friends join me? As if my work schedule would allow me to have friends join me on a podcast.

Man, I would hate to be an enjoyer of this podcast and someone who doesn't enjoy Attack on Titan because it seems like that's the only content you've been getting lately, huh? We missed two weeks so here's a breakdown of two episodes becasue COVID isn't a joke and neither are those northern snowstorms. We discuss the continuing adventures of those wild wacky Jaeger brothers as they go back in time to solve mysterious mysteries like "was it actually parental abuse that ruined my life" and "how much of a kill spree can you get with a royal family before you have to have a breakdown"! We explain the many wild wacky wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff of "Memories of the Future" and joke around about AoT spoilers. Sorry for the delay! We'll try not to do it again! Just don't leave me. It's so lonely in the show notes. I haven't seen another human in ages. Does anyone actually read this far really? I never do in podcasts. A lot of it is just aimless fluff, you know?
