Anime Not Be For Everyone
Two anime fans briefly recount their favourite shows to a third friend, who would rather listen to just about anything else. Carefully crafted for lovers and haters of anime; prepare for a cornucopia of off-topic jibber-jabber and outlandish buffoonery.
Listen on:
Broady
Otaku? Weeaboo? Maybe he is. Maybe he isn't. We love him anyways.
The star of his own anime, Broady struts through life with the confidence of a [Insert Japanese Word Here]. Believe it or not, he has watched all 700+ episodes of Naruto AND reads the manga. Or as he would say it MAAHN-GUH. Outside of anime, Broady is going to school for broadcasting television where he hopes to make something as perfect as The Princess Bride one day.
Favourite Anime: Shonen's (Naruto/One Piece)
Favourite Movie: The Princess Bride
Favourite Game: Red Dead Redemption 2
Caleb
He grew up being taught that Pokémon were evil demon creatures. He hasn't looked back since.
Caleb's only experience with anime was the classic Saturday morning cartoon: Hamtaro. He believes that no matter what the guys get him to watch, it will never surpass the perfection of those little furry guys (but for real, he kinda hates anime). In his spare time he obsesses over the MCU and Mass Effect, so he is definitely still a complete nerd. In fact, one day he aspires to be a doctor. Oh speaking of which, please don't tell his future employers about this show.
Favourite Anime: Does Family Guy count?
Favourite Movie: Captain America: The Winter Soldier
Favourite Game: Mass Effect 3
Zack
As a self-proclaimed harem enthusiast, you know he's gonna bring us those spicy anime's.
As most kids were dreaming of flying away as Superman, Zack spent his time running around his back yard trying to go Super Saiyan. Outside of anime and podcasting, Zack spends his time perfecting his Super Mario Sunshine speed runs, creating music and going on Omegle bottomless (just kidding, he isn't that guy).
Favourite Anime: Dragon Ball Z
Favourite Movie: "Video games are the best movies"
Favourite Game: Super Mario Sunshine (Ironically not a good movie)
