    Nani Talks - Episode 13.1 - All Star Edition - Help! I'm Addicted to Isekai!

    We brought in the Allstars. And things got heated fast. Trizlucent, Kieron Boothe, and The GaBrit pull up to the table and nobody is safe. Opinions are flying, the anime takes are COLD, and someone nearly got kicked out the alumni before the first segment was even done. We're debating what actually makes an anime a GOAT. We're telling a fan how to break his Isekai addiction. And we're asking the question the internet never agrees on can you ever sit through bad animation? Because someone in this room said yes. And then defended the One Piece live action in the same breath. It did not go well for them. Nani Talks is the only anime podcast from the culture. New episodes every Monday at 7:30pm.

    Nani Talks - Episode 12.3 - Picilian - Junction Hill's Anime Inspirations & Gaming Dilemma

    In this episode of Nani Talks, Tunes and Slick sit down with Shereen and Dwayne from Picilian Entertainment to talk anime, gaming, and the creative influences behind Junction Hill. First, Nani's the Word tackles a gaming friendship dilemma: how do you stay in your friendship circle when your friends only play shooters, you prefer RPGs and platformers, and you keep ending up as the butt of the joke? Then we get into the main conversation: what anime has Picilian watched, and what kind of anime energy, storytelling, characters, action, or world building could be inspiring Junction Hill? From UK gaming culture to anime influence, this segment explores the creative DNA behind one of the most interesting British game projects right now. #JunctionHill #PicilianEntertainment #AnimeInspired #AnimeGames #UKGaming #BritishGaming #UKGameDev #OpenWorldGames #SandboxGame #GamingPodcast #AnimePodcast #GamingCommunity #RPGGames #ShooterGames #nanitalks • Drop a comment: Is the UK gaming scene finally ready for a true open-world takeover?  • Join the Naniverse waitlist: https://naniverse.io • Subscribe to Nani Talks for the only anime & gaming podcast from the culture.

    Nani Talks - Episode 11.3 - We Voice Acted My Hero Academia

    Can the mandem actually pull off a Plus Ultra performance? We're back for the 3rd installment of Shadow with the Mandem, and this time, the mics are getting heated as we attempt to voice act iconic scenes from My Hero Academia. Welcome back to Nani Talks, the only anime podcast bringing you the authentic London perspective on the culture. In this session (Vol 11.3), JR, Slick, Tunes and Shao Dow put their "voice acting hats" on to see if they can match the intensity of Deku, Bakugo, and All Might. It gets loud, it gets peak, and someone definitely lost their voice. After the chaos, we dive into The WhatList, our signature segment where we review the latest simulcasts. We're breaking down which new releases are "Hot" and which ones are a total "Flop." If you're looking for unfiltered anime takes, deep-dive discussions on the industry, and the intersection of Black culture and anime, you're in the right place.

    Nani Talks - Episode 11.2 - Anime Warned Us And We Ignored It

    Has anime been warning us about the AI takeover this whole time? We break down how Ghost in the Shell and SAO predicted the exact digital dystopia we're living in right now. Welcome back to Nani Talks, the only anime podcast for the Culture. In Episode 11.2, Slick, Quantum, Tunes and Shao Dow are plugging directly into the matrix. We kick things off with a wild game of "Anime Dream or AI Nightmare," where the mandem have to figure out which plot synopses are real and which ones were cooked up by AI. The loser takes a Father-Son Kamehameha to the chest, so the stakes are high! Then, we get into the heavy stuff: How classics like Ghost in the Shell, Sword Art Online, and Psycho-Pass practically invented the Metaverse before Mark Zuckerberg even thought of it. Are our virtual identities freeing us or trapping us in digital dreams? Plus, we bring it back home and debate what a UK version of Sword Art Online would actually look like on the streets of London. Grab your NerveGear, it's about to get deep. #ShaoDow #NaniTalks #ShaolinMonk #AnimeRap #Nerdcore #Shaolin #KungFu #MartialArts #AnimePodcast #UKRap #TheMandem #DiYGang #Blerd #MangaAuthor #NaniTalks #AnimePodcast #SwordArtOnline #GhostInTheShell #AnimeMetaverse #UKAnime #BlackBritishCreators #PsychoPass #AIinAnime • Like + Subscribe if you want more deep anime breakdowns. • Drop a comment we read and reply.
