Episode 8: It's all about ESP this week (that's an acronym for Extra Stupid Protagonist jk jk) as we read the minds of the people around us with The Troubled Life of Miss Kotoura! Kotoura may be able to see into the skulls of her classmates and friends but does that mean she can see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch? It's because of the cinnamon-y romance swirls in every bite or some...

We're getting into our fuwa fuwa feelings in this week's episode as we discuss the anime Sasaki and Miyano! It's host Keri's first BL experience with a show about enjoying BL that is also itself BL so it's kind of like a Russian nesting doll of boys kissing or something. We discuss best boy, being the only straight dude in a BL show, and how to pronounce fudanshi all in this we...

We're putting on the horse head mask and screaming into the existential void known as mid 2010's otaku culture this week with an episode on I Can't Understand What My Husband is Saying.
