In what is certainly one of our longest episodes ever, our hosts are counting down the series they watched this year from least favorite to favorite. Warning: Hot takes may occur. What came out on top? The answer may surprise you! (or, alternatively, it might not surprise you at all)

As usual, what we lack in number of series to discuss, we make up for with lengthy tangents.

COVERED IN THIS EPISODE: Invincible Fight Girl 9-10 (end for now) and Yu Yu Hakusho 30-33.

Well, okay, it technically is.

COVERED IN THIS EPISODE: Invincible Fight Girl 8, Mashle 6, One Piece 698, Yu Yu Hakusho 28-29, Re:Zero 58 (end for now), Blue Exorcist 7, and Burn the Witch 2.

Two series of ours end their seasons and we check out a much shorter series.

Sailor Moon ends its first season and Yu Yu Hakusho ends an arc.

One series ends and another begins. When that happens, it sure makes writing podcast synopses easier!
