The AniTAY Podcast rings in the new year with a preview for the winter 2020 anime season. Listen in as AniTAY authors gasp in horror at the terrors that await them in the new year. Will Raitzeno assume incorrectly that the next anime hit will actually be terrible (Konosuba)? Or will he be right on the money (most other times)?

As you can see from the naming scheme for the title, the new decade brings with it a new season of the AniTAY podcast. Look forward to future developments for the podcast as the year progresses!

The AniTAY podcast has returned for one final episode before the new year. It’s been a year of fantastic AniTAY highs and horrifying AniTAY lows on the podcast, but we aren’t done just yet! Today’s episode is chock full of terrible takes on the best looking anime people this year. We also talk some more about fall 2019 anime and kinksy is (regrettably) given time to share his least favorite anime of 2019.

Have you ever seen the first episode of a new anime that wowed you so much that you ended up binging the whole thing? Well we have, some of us quite a few times. Join us as we talk about our favorite first anime episodes and also chat about current anime such as isekai, My Hero Academia, and My Hero Academia isekai (and other things).

*hybrid’s audio got slightly desynced later in the episode. We have changed our recording methods to improve audio quality, but there are still some bumps in the road. We apologize for that and Requiem’s terrible favorite first episode selections.

Fall 2019 is in full swing and so are the hot takes about all the spicy products on the seasonal menu. After all, why kill each other over Popeye’s chicken sandwiches when we can just kill each other over some tennis anime? Join the AniTAY crew as we discuss Japanese emperors, Stars Align, and our favorite opening themes of 2019, all in one episode!

*Apologies for slight cut outs in the audio this episode. Everyone’s internet was a bit sketchy when we recorded.
