    Episode #141: What If Love Isn't a Ship

    In this heart‑fluttering Valentine's Day special, we dive deep into the world of anime romance—from the most iconic confessions under falling sakura petals to the messy, chaotic love triangles that keep us glued to the screen. We break down classic tropes, celebrate our favorite couples, and debate which slow‑burn romances are actually worth the wait. Whether you're a die‑hard shoujo fan, a rom‑com skeptic, or someone who just wants to hear us gush about 2D love stories, this episode is your perfect Valentine's companion. Grab some chocolates, cozy up, and join us for an hour of pure anime affection. Every effort is made to keep spoilers to a minimum.

    Episode #140: Skynet Says 2026

    In this age of AI, we are faced with the dilemma of the Total Machine Takeover. Yet, once a year, we willingly hand over our autonomy to he who is named Skynet to decide which 4 Anime we will or won't be giving the AF Seal of Approval. The Die are cast. The Wheel spun.  The Journey begins anew.  Every effort is made to keep spoilers to a minimum.

    Bonus Episode - Finite Castle

    The words "the final phase" keep crossing our minds. Of course they do. It's 2025 and Muzan finally let us in to the most bombastic, physics defying, and confusing place of residence in all of fiction. Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle is upon us. We went to watch it to bring you back the feels, the top-tier animation, on top of the sword play action that made us wait for so long. Shout out to the water tribe, if you know you know, cue the Upper Moon 4 strumming her biwa (yes, we're cultured) and join us on this multidimensional escapade.

    Episode #139 - Anime Eras Ft ShowNEN Tell

    Ranking different epochs in the history of Anime isn't for the uninitiated; it requires the wisdom of an Arataka Reigen, the battle prowess of a King from One Punch Man, the pathetic capacity to cry on demand of a Hanagaki Takemichi, and the incredible usefullness of Rock Lock's ability.  With us on this intrepid endeavour is our guy @Shownentell.

    Episode #138 - Feedbackloop II

    Lets keep it 💯, we love our community. So much in fact that Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask's relationship would in comparison be reclassified as a platonic friendzone mixed with Bible study taking place at a rundown car wash. As the Anime Freshmen, we are take pride in our expert knowledge of all things anime, and it's put to the test this time round with our Brothers and Sisters sending in their questions for us to answer. Is Tanjiro's head made of a yet undiscovered element? Can Titans get pregnant? Will Rising of the Shield Hero ever come off of life support? Where in the AOT universe does Onyankopon come from? We ponder anime's greatest mysteries. Every effort is made to keep spoilers to a minimum.

    Episode #137 - Dressy Dressy Fun Fun

    This episode is long overdue, because we've all seen a cosplay so on point that we instantly thought 'NANI'?!?', and we almost got GTA6 before getting to deep dive into the Grand Line that is Cosplaying. And to get that in-depth, expert perspective on what it means to turn imagination into a life-sized Tanjiro with Nezuko in box, we had to get the Cosplay Royalty that is @Folacosplays, with all the tips, tricks, and vybz that we know and love her for, showing why it's not just a costume, it's a passion. Bonus points if you can guess which of the Freshmen have cosplayed before; Clue: He likes Anime and goes to the theatre. Every effort is made to keep spoilers to a minimum.

    Episode #136 - Freshie Awards 2025

    On the Mount Rushmore of the UK Anime Community, the Anime Freshmen have rightly earned our place as trailblazers, and the annual AF Freshie Awards continue to lead the way, much like Rock Lock set the standard for the term 'useless power' in My Hero Academia. We once again take a look at this year's Crunchyroll Anime Awards and give it that London twist, with our brother Big Miko pulling up and getting involved in the chaotic analysis that we hold near and dear to our hearts. Nuff bants with bro. Come through! Every effort is made to keep spoilers to a minimum.

    Episode #135 - Summoned to Another World During a Podcast Recording and It's All Going Horribly Wrong!

    What happens when anime podcasters get sucked into not one—but three chaotic fantasy worlds ruled by spinning wheels and terrible life choices? In this special episode of Isekai Roulette, our hosts become the unfortunate heroes (or villains?) of randomized realms, armed with bizarre powers, cursed roles, and only podcast mics to their name. Expect wild world-hopping, questionable decisions, and magic systems we barely understand. Whether it's battling slime gods, negotiating with undead kings, or trying to find Wi-Fi in a dungeon, this is isekai madness like you've never heard before.
