  • Best podcast for anime fans! James' in-depth knowledge of all anime and the history and cultural background of each and every show is absolutely astounding. The podcast really helps shine a light on the less explored aspects of your favorite Japanese cartoons. James even went to Japan once, though he never talks about his trip. Maso is also there.
