Anime Gourmands

Tanner and Kevin go over their opinions on Nippon Sangoku and give their final ratings for the show!

Welcome to another episode featuring the love of my life! Claudia is here to give a very spirited set of advice for people who live more on the feminine side, seeing that Kevin, Angel, and Tanner have little to no experience on that side... This episode was a blast to record, please let Cloud know how much she is appreciated! BTW, here's the links to the videos we were referencing, lol: https:...

Anime Expo is almost here! The first half of the episode is about us trying to share what we are most excited about from the schedule that has been released so far (as of this recording). The second half is where we get into the nitty gritty as to what tips and tricks we have up our sleeves in order to "survive" Anime Expo 2026.

The Crunchyroll Awards were frustrating to talk about. So frustrating, we had to scrap an episode featuring them. So instead, I went ahead and "fixed" the issues I had with the awards. Did I succeed? Definitely not, but it was much more fun to talk about as a podcast!

Wild card round of the mid-season reviews, and we have quite a doozy. Nippon Sangoku: The Three Nations of the Crimson Sun, Kill Blue, Go For It Nakamura-kun!, and An Observation Log of My Fiancée Who Calls Herself a Villainess all received 3 episode reviews, and I must say, the 2 that pass may or may not surprise you... Thank you for listening!

I don't know how I have enough characters to fit these long frickin titles, lol. 3 episode reviews of Daemons, Agents, Ramparts, and Second all lined up, all shot down. Tune in if you want to see which shows we will be reviewing in full at the end of the season!

Akane-Banashi, Marriagetoxin, and Witch Hat Atelier are on the slate this week and we have some things to say about em! 3 episode reviews that serve as a little sampler to see if we want it in the final course that is the End of Season Review. Tune in if you wanna know what is gonna pass!

If that title doesn't make ya dizzy, I don't know what will, hahaha! Yes, another anime season, another anime season preview brought to you by the Gourmands. As usual, we walk you through the selection of new shows premiering this season, which has a fairly wide variety of shows this season, including the much anticipated Witch Hat Atelier! Hope you enjoy and we'll see you next week fo...

OMG Winter 2026 is finally over! I mean it's been over, but for us its been like a dead horse coming back to life, LOL. Scheduling is hard sometimes. Fate, Sentenced, Polar Opposites, and Journal With Witch are the anime spotlighted for this end of season. Hope you enjoy!

Hello my Gourmands. Claudia is here to pick up the slack and she's here to shed light on her favorite moments from the shows she's watched this season. Thank you for listening!

Steel Ball Run had it's debut episode out for a while, so we thought it was appropriate to finally discuss it in full! If you are ready for the perspective of a long-time Jojo fan and/or the perspective of someone barely getting into the series, you are at the right place!

Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3: Culling Game Part One culminated in one of the best final episodes to a season ever and we are here to talk about it! Higuruma, Reggie, Sendai Colony, gross cockroach kisses, WE TALK ABOUT IT ALL! If you enjoy this type of content, please remember to follow the show and rate it 5 stars so that we know we are doing something right. Thank you for listening, and yes, we will...

A Couple Gourmands will be in titles for episodes in which Claudia is featured. In this episode, Claudia GOES OFF on hot takes, including a continuation of a Dress Up Darling take she hinted at last recording. Thank you for listening!

A nice chill episode before the Spring end of season review. If you would like to participate before/after listening, or if you want to share your responses with us, the questions we answered are below: 1. What anime would make the best first person RPG (Skyrim, Avowed, Fallout)? 2. What is the best anime to watch with your entire family? 3. Inspired by Maki from JJK this season, what other muscle...

Hi hi. In this episode, Claud introduces herself to the podcast by talking about shows she's been watching recently. She's great, I literally love her, lol. Side note, I apologize for the occasional echo, I am still figuring out this live recording thing.

The boys talk about 5 anime that have been perpetually stuck in the backlog. If you have any stubborn backlog anime, please feel free to share in the comments or email animegourmands@gmail.com!

It is time!

WILD CARD, BABY!

If you missed the season preview and aren't able to decipher what anime are being covered this week, fret not. This week, we reviewed 3 episodes (worth) of the following anime: You and I Are Polar Opposites, Sentenced to be a Hero, Shiboyugi, and Tamon's B-Side. This was a fascinating slate of shows, we hope you enjoy!

Read some descriptions, comment on some studios, badda bing badda boom, baby! Hope you enjoy, and remember, Gourmands never die.

Clickbait title aside, we decide to set a rubric for our rating systems. I promise it is more fun than it sounds, haha.

There are three important things that every gourmand should do at the beginning of every new year: reflect on the past year, plan for the future, and promise to better yourself. The boys and I tackle the new year head on, and have a bunch of fun doing so! We also review Sanda, Yano-kun, Status as an Assassin, and Dusk Beyond the End of the World in their totality.

Yooooo, season 3 of JJK is right around the corner, and the advanced screening of the first couple episodes came out in theaters. To celebrate, we devised a JJK based game with the entire gourmand crew, before Angel and I review what we watched in theaters. If you ONLY want the movie review (you'd be missing out), please feel free to skip to 58:14.

Yo. The Wheel of Anime Categories is back and better than it has ever been. We actually got more than 5 wheel spins this time, lol. Hope you enjoy!

I made an honestly torturous version of guess the category, with a spinning twist! Try to play along and see if you can get the category before these boys do? By the way, some eagle eyed listeners may notice that this wheel is missing the categories that ended up being spun in the show. Didn't want to make it too easy for ya, lol.
