Customer Reviews
Most consistently entertaining and informative anime podcast there is!
ANNCast is without contest the podcast every English-speaking anime and manga fan should be listening to! Being affiliated with Anime News Network means the podcast has a huge pool of industry resources so most episodes have guests who will share a lot of fascinating details about the way the industry actually works. At the same time the hosts, Zac inparticular, put a fun presentation on everything, whether it's sharing their opinions on series they're watching or honestly commenting on the people out there who 'think' they know how the industry works. Every episode is either fun or educational, but more often than not it's both and the switch-up of topics - from anime, to manga, to video games - gives fair attention to the varied audience of the fandom.
