Konich-Yeehaw!

 #anime #weeb #weebcon2024 #animeconvention We're back to talk about our experience at Weebcon 2024. Just like last year the cast was stacked! What an amazing guest list. The shopping was nothing to sneeze at either: we saw things we've never seen at conventions before. But we are once again faced with the question: is the Gaylord a good convention location? //TALENT Talya Narvaja @n_talya97...

New year, new season! We welcome the new year with some continuing action and new romances. Adult romance is IN (thank goodness) with college chance encounters and workplace tensions. That doesn't mean we've left behind high school romances, with one being especially spicy //TALENT Talya Narvaja @n_talya97 Jared @weeb_trash_98 //FOLLOW Follow us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/KonichYeehaw Follo...

The Anime Awards are upon us! Join us as we review and discuss the categories and nominations for this year's Anime Awards! Do you agree with the nominations? Or do you wish some, ahem, NEWER shows got to shine?  //TALENT Talya Narvaja @n_talya97 Jared @weeb_trash_98 //FOLLOW Follow us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/KonichYeehaw Follow us on YOUTUBE @ Konichyeehaw https://www.youtube.com/@...

 In this episode, we discuss what we watched this past season. Lots of ups and downs! Many girlfriends kept us entertained, but some romances fell flat. The ghost hunts are getting crazier in Dark Gathering, and the lore is getting crazier in Undead Unluck. Some Forbidden Deductions failed to intrigue us, and while we're happy for our rocket club girls, their journey is simple. At least our v...

In this episode, we talk about our time at Anime Frontier. This is our second year going to this diverse convention, and just like last year shopping was the name of the game! From fudge to Funkos and t-shirts to hot teas, this convention hosts a wide array of vendors  //TALENT Natalie Narvaja @n_talya97 Jared @weeb_trash_98 //FOLLOW Follow us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/KonichYeehaw Fo...

In this episode, we discuss the newest entry to the Godzilla franchise, Godzilla Minus One. Spoilers ahead! This film can be best described as a modern retelling of the original film from 1954. Set days after WWII, this film tackles post-war struggles, survivor's guilt, and the controversy of the Kamakazi pilot all with Godzilla in the middle of it. Compared to other recent entries in the franchis...

In this episode, we talk about anime suitable for kids. Obviously, everything is up to parents' discretion, but we want to offer our advice as adults who navigated anime since childhood. We review animes from popular streaming services and rate them from squeaky clean to more suitable for teens.  //TALENT Natalie Narvaja @n_talya97 Jared @weeb_trash_98 //FOLLOW Follow us on Twitter at https:/...

In this episode, we talk about what we're watching this season, and boy is it a lot! Spy X Family returns with more hilarious misunderstandings, as well as Girlfriend, Girlfriend with more love triangle antics. Speaking of girlfriends, how about 100 of them?! The 100 Girlfriends Who Really Love Me kicks off with only 97 more girlfriends to go! Don't worry, there's action this season too with Undea...

 In this episode, we review what we watched this past season, summer 2023. Yayoi gathered many new spirits in Dark Gathering and will continue to do so this upcoming season. Our favorite of the season combined monsters, murders, and crazy deductions in Undead Girl Murder Farce. And what was supposed to be the series of the summer gets hit with multiple delays that result in an indefinite hiat...

In this episode, we talk about what it's like being an adult in anime fandom spaces. Things have changed quite a bit since we first started going to conventions in high school! Cosplays are easier to buy, kids won't stop filming TikToks in the middle of the artist alley, and our anime prints have made their way from our teenage bedrooms to our living room. We reminisce about the things we miss and...

 In this episode, we talk about all the different types of anime merch there is out there. Brand collaborations reach new heights when it comes to anime. Limited edition laundry soap and razors? AR concerts you can scan from a pizza box? And what's up with body pillows? //TALENT Natalie Narvaja @n_talya97 Jared @weeb_trash_98 //FOLLOW Follow us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/KonichYeehaw F...

In this episode, we talk about isekai and all their silly tropes. Taking a normal guy and putting him in a new fantasy world is very popular nowadays. From overpowered knights to vending machines and slime, anything can happen in an isekai. //TALENT Natalie Narvaja @n_talya97 Jared @weeb_trash_98 //FOLLOW Follow us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/KonichYeehaw Follow us on YOUTUBE @ Konichyeehaw...

 In this episode, we talk about our trip to AnimeFest! This is our second year going, and it's still a great convention!

We're back and ready to talk about anime! This summer season is actually pretty gothic with shows like Dark Gathering and Undead Murder Farce. Zom 100 bring a comedic take on a colorful zombie apocalypse. Horimiya adds in some Missing Pieces, and famous manga author Hiromu Arakawa (Fullmetal Alchemist) shares her wisdom from her years of living as a farmer. //TALENT Natalie Narvaja @n_talya97 Jare...

In this episode, we discuss what we watched this past season. The "Utena" plot is alive and well in Gundam: Witch From Mercury. Demon Slayer gave us way cooler demons than previous seasons. While we don't think the characters got very close to Heaven in Heavenly Delusion, the characters in Hell's Paradise continue to fight toward their goal. And our favorites of the season end up being two high sc...

 In this Off The Saddle episode, we talk about Summer Game Fest. A lot was announced! We also got follow-ups for games we're looking forward to, like Alan Wake 2 and Like A Dragon: Gaiden. Nintendo hit us with FIVE Mario announcements, and Wholesome Games showcased over 50 new indie games. //TALENT Natalie Narvaja @n_talya97 Jared @weeb_trash_98 //FOLLOW Follow us on Twitter at https://twitte...

Happy Pride! In this episode, we talk about some LGBTQ+ anime and its history. Since the 60s, LGBTQ+ themes have been present in anime, whether it be women knights protecting their princesses or magical gender-switching curses. Even in shows without queer main plots, queer characters are present as childhood best friends, savvy relatives, and quirky villains  //TALENT Natalie Narvaja @n_talya...

In this episode, we talk about our favorite sad anime. Not everyone likes sad anime, and that's okay. They can tackle difficult topics like depression, bullying, and illness. While these are sometimes hard to watch, they make for memorable stories. //TALENT Natalie Narvaja @n_talya97 Jared @weeb_trash_98 //FOLLOW Follow us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/KonichYeehaw Follow us on YOUTUBE @ Konic...

In this episode, we look at questions in the r/anime subreddit. Need some recommendations on underrated shows? What about shows that aren't long? We even go over things we enjoyed watching but WOULD NOT recommend. //TALENT Natalie Narvaja @n_talya97 Jared @weeb_trash_98 //FOLLOW Follow us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/KonichYeehaw Follow us on YOUTUBE @ Konichyeehaw https://www.youtube.com/@ko...

In this episode, we discuss different anime studios and their history and style. Who makes something often determines a show's popularity and sets an expectation for the quality and genre. If you like action, you can't go wrong with Studio Ufotable and MAPPA. If you're more into cute slice of life, Kyoto Animation is the studio for you. //TALENT Natalie Narvaja @n_talya97 Jared @weeb_trash_98 //FO...

In this episode, we discuss what's in season this spring 2023. Demon Slayer and Witch From Mercury are back with new arcs. Heavenly Delusion and Hell's Paradise are in fact two different shows that just happen to both involve big scary monsters and a duo just trying to survive them. And class is back in session with Skip and Loafer, My Clueless First Friend, and Insomniacs After School. //TALENT N...

 In this episode, we discuss what we watched during the winter 2023 anime season. Do Isagi and Bachira reunite in Bluelock? What were the most memorable stories from Junji Ito's Maniac? And, what everyone is wondering, was Trigun Stampede good? /TALENT Natalie Narvaja @n_talya97 Jared @weeb_trash_98 //FOLLOW Follow us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/KonichYeehaw Follow us on YOUTUBE @ Konic...

In this episode, we talk about our trip to Weebcon at the Gaylord Texan. A big fancy venue calls for big fancy guests and lots of panels, but surprisingly not as many artists. /TALENT Natalie Narvaja @n_talya97 Jared @weeb_trash_98 //FOLLOW Follow us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/KonichYeehaw Follow us on YOUTUBE @ Konichyeehaw https://www.youtube.com/@konichyeehaw // CONTACT US Want to get in...

Did you know we have other interests outside of anime? In our first "off the saddle" episode, we talk about our trip to the Sherwood Forest Faire, a renaissance festival near Austin, TX. We discuss the things you can find at a ren fair, such as shopping, food, and entertainment. //TALENT Natalie Narvaja @n_talya97 Jared @weeb_trash_98 //FOLLOW Follow us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/KonichYeeh...
