The Anime Backlog

A podcast featuring 3 weebs - Dan the lover of trash, Nick who loves comfy slice of life and rom-coms, and Marcus whose taste makes no sense - helping each other catch up on shows they miss, often with positive results and in some cases wishing they'd never crossed a particular anime off their list.

    Season 2 EP11 - Masamune-kun's Revenge: or That Time The Trash Returned With a Vengeance

    The dice gods return yet again for a random roll episode, and after well over a year and over 50 episodes, we finally landed on something we expected to be trash in Masamune-Kun’s Revenge. Would any of us find any redeeming qualities in this anime, enough for us to even give it a passing grade? Note: due to scheduling issues, pt 2 only has Nick and Dan - Marcus’s score is revealed in pt 1 of the next episode.

    Season 2 Episode 10 - The Vision of Escaflowne: Baby's First Mecha-Isekai

    Season 2 Episode 10 - The Vision of Escaflowne: Baby's First Mecha-Isekai For this episode, Dan is hosting and is pulling out one of their favorites. Back in the day, Fox Kids aired a handful of fantastic anime. During this time Dan had inadvertantly watched and loved Escaflowne. Does this 1996 show stand the test of time or are Dan's memories just a dream, or maybe a vision? If you enjoyed the show, please subscribe for future episodes every other Wednesday.
