We've been hard at work cooking behind the scenes but are finally back with another one.

This episode, we built an actual war room to plan an invasion of Rimuru's kingdom from 'That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime' because someone thought "how hard could it be, he's literally a slime" was a good pitch.

Commander (Highlander) has final say. Intel Lead (Parker Zensai) leads the Tempest briefing (Benimaru alone should be illegal). Red Team Lead (Apollus Prime) spends the whole ep shredding every plan before it leaves the room.

Will we come out of this potential war in one piece? Will Rimuru show mercy? Find out this time on The Anime Freshmen Podcast.

Freshmen's Log

When? 2026

Nani? Freshie Awards

Why? Keeping it Fresh

It's that time of year again when we host the annual AF Freshie Awards and turn our expert caps backwards a la Ash Ketchum when he's about to once again choose the worst suited Pokémon for a crucial all-out battle.

In line with this year's Crunchyroll Anime Awards, we'll let you know who will, might, won't, and maybe even can't win their respective categories, making sure that, with man like @jaysamzlive from @shownentell in the cut (appreciate you bro), the takes are spicy, the verdicts are potentially crazy, and the vybz Gachiakuta.

I vote Deku for Crybaby of the Decade

Afrikan Families are a Treasure, but not for the weak. So much so that 'laughing at the pain' is an unofficial right of passage.

But how do these experiences mesh with the medium that is Anime?

We let our imaginations run wild like Jujutsu Kaisen trying to coherently explain how someone's powers work and go in some unexepcted directions.

Shout out to our Sis @JayjaySweetsz for coming through and sprinkling the vybz with a pinch of chaos.

In this heart‑fluttering Valentine's Day special, we dive deep into the world of anime romance—from the most iconic confessions under falling sakura petals to the messy, chaotic love triangles that keep us glued to the screen. We break down classic tropes, celebrate our favorite couples, and debate which slow‑burn romances are actually worth the wait.

Whether you're a die‑hard shoujo fan, a rom‑com skeptic, or someone who just wants to hear us gush about 2D love stories, this episode is your perfect Valentine's companion. Grab some chocolates, cozy up, and join us for an hour of pure anime affection.

In this age of AI, we are faced with the dilemma of the Total Machine Takeover.

Yet, once a year, we willingly hand over our autonomy to he who is named Skynet to decide which 4 Anime we will or won't be giving the AF Seal of Approval.

The Die are cast. The Wheel spun.

The Journey begins anew.
