September 11, 2020 at 3:07 amThanks, guys! I’ve listened to every episode of the podcast, and they all were very entertaining and informative.
My little addition to the conversation about what is the most important part of anime. Not talking about what makes one show better than another. More about what distinguishes anime from other types of content in my opinion. I would say it is its visual aesthetics. I mean character design, sceneries, action scenes, and so on. Some anime shows look gorgeous, some are just normal, but overall most of them are really visually pleasing, as for me.
Btw maybe you, guys, could remember some ugly drawn anime shows (or manga) in your opinion, which were hard to watch (or read) for you because of that, but nonetheless interesting?

September 14, 2020 at 5:56 amJust listened to it… SOOOOO Psyched about Made in Abyss! 😀
Great podcast! I’m not familiar with your co-host but I’ll look him up… In the meantime, since you guys want questions, here’s one 🙂
Do you guys have jobs related to anime or writing at all? How do you manage your time in order to put out consistent high quality content like that? I’m sure it depends on what you’re writing about, but on average, how long would you say it takes to write an article on your blog?
If those questions are off limit, no worries… I’d also like to know what was the “turning point” for you guys… For me, growing up in the late 80s, I always thought anime’s animation was too low quality for me… Until I saw Last Exile and realized how wrong I’d been. Any similar experiences or was it more of a gradual thing for you?
Thanks!

September 14, 2020 at 7:41 amThanks very much for those kind words. Those are great questions and I don’t think either is off limits, but I’ll save the answers for on the air so stay tuned.
