More Demon Slayer? More KonoSuba?! Oshi no Ko on the big screen, long awaited adaptations like Hell's Paradise and even a sleeper hit josei anime!?! Spring 2023 is explosive with incredible anime, and Best Boys Dan and Justin are here with your seasonal top ten (plus a few more) anime to keep an eye on! Join The Best Boys for a wild foray into this season's slate of anime to find out what to watch (and what to avoid!), accompanied as always by some weebly banter and anime news!

Picture this: It’s the height of the Dot-Com Bubble, hair is ridiculous, and the Soviet Union is a thing of the recent past. It’s the 90’s! A cartoon revolution is in the makings in the West, but in the East brand new shows that would go on to become classics of anime are in the making. Join the Best Boys for a jaunt back into the heady days of the 90’s for a pair of mini-anime reviews dripping with 90’s cool (or maybe not!). Best Boys Dan and Justin took a very scientific online quiz which assigned them some 90’s anime to watch for this week, making for some fun and silly banter about this era in anime history. So turn off Seinfeld, plug in your discman and take a trip back to the 90’s with The Best Boys!
