Anime Gourmands

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.

Hey, what's up ya'll? Another Price is Right on the menu, this time curated and hosted by Kevin. Apologies for the discord in the bottom right corner, I wanted to include a visual of people talking, and it was working in the demo run, it just didn't work in the final. You can see me take it off like halfway through, lol. Hope you guys enjoy!

I'm still delirious from my concoction of cold medicine, Mexican home remedies, and Lil Miss Vampire, so I apologize for everything in this episode, lol. Wild card anime for this episode include Lil Miss Vampire, Yano's Ordinary Days, My Status as an Assassin..., and Wandance. Hope you enjoy! If you're looking for the instagram post Tanner references in the episode, here's the link...

Chainsaw Man is back with a BOMB-bastic movie to start off the next chapter of Chainsaw action. We very tiredly and incorrectly recall the events and details of not only the movie, but from the anime that came out 3 years ago.

Holy Moly, what a title. Definitely the closest I have ever gotten to hitting the character limit, lol. Lots to discuss, so what are you reading this for, listen to the episode already.

The Gourmands are back to peruse the menu for this season's new shows, as well as talk about continuing series' that we are excited for! For newcomers, we read the synopsis of the shows that we will be reviewing throughout the course of the season, as well as look at potential contenders for our wild card special in a few weeks. We are looking forward to another wonderful season of anime!

Split recordings. Don't love em, but gosh darn it we set out to review the anime from this season and we flippin did it. We hope that this season was fun for ya'll as much as it was fun for us. Next up, Fall 2025 to close out the year of anime!

Why are you reading this? The title says the whole thing. Like honestly, if you are gonna read this in its entirety, you should probably pickup a book instead. I mean, there are much better things to do than to waste your eye time on this. I mean the average human gets like less than 100 years awake on average, probably. I dunno, I don't wanna tell you how to live your life or anything, but go...
