273. The 2026 Crunchyroll Anime Awards
We discuss the 2026 Crunchyroll Anime Awards. It’s the ten year anniversary for the award show, but there wasn’t much to celebrate. We share our thoughts on the award show and all the winners, question whether an independent third party should be running things, wonder if anyone will ever take down Anya Forger and One Piece, and bask in the glory of Bakugo’s deserved recognition.

271. Spring 2026 Anime First Impressions
We discuss our spoiler-free Spring 2026 anime first impressions. We’ve got another promising season for the romance fans, and several unexpected moments from premiere episodes. We discuss how to pronounce “atelier” in Witch Hat Atelier, the trope of gyaru and nerd romances, and what is literally happening in Daemons of the Shadow Realm.

270. Frieren: Beyond Journey's End (S2)
We review the second season of Frieren: Beyond Journey's End. Anime’s most comforting show continues to impart important life lessons on us. We discuss the romantic moments between Stark and Fern (or as we call them, “Fark”), Frieren’s newest grimoires, and the fight between demons and a guy who says he doesn’t care but he actually does care.

269. Jujutsu Kaisen: The Culling Game Part 1 (S3)
We review season 3 of Jujutsu Kaisen: The Culling Game Part 1. MAPPA has evolved this anime into something cinematic and intense, even with curse powers that seem a little silly. But that’s ok, we’re here for it. We discuss movie references, Itadori on trial, Fushiguro’s abs, and the return of Chef Yuta.

268. Gachiakuta (S1 Part 2)
We review the second half of Gachiakuta season one. Trash takes a back seat as the focus shifts to shonen battles and expanding the mystery. We discuss Zanka’s weak backstory, major spoilers in the OP, more comedic moments, and unexpected plot twists.

267. Sakamoto Days (S1 Part 2)
We review the second half of Sakamoto Days season one. With more plot progression than the first half, the second cour is action-packed and full of mystery. We discuss Sakamoto’s connections and his past, throwaway enemies and unnecessary fights, and skinny vs. fat Sakamoto.
