FAP-309 Godzilla: Planet Of Monsters - Ancient and still around.

This week, we explored Godzilla: Planet of the Monsters —a blend of nostalgia and fresh storytelling. While it honors the franchise’s legacy, this movie introduces a bold new narrative. The premise is gripping: humanity flees Earth after Godzilla’s dominance, spending 20 years wandering in space. Forced to return due to dwindling resources, they find Earth changed in ways they could never have imagined. This is where the action truly begins. If you’re a fan of epic stories with twists, this is a...

FAP-308 Immoral Guild - Soft Poor Corn is what it is.

In this episode, we dive into the anime Immoral Guild —an ecchi-heavy series that isn’t afraid to push boundaries. The show skates close to the line between fan service and something far more risqué, with scenes that might feel more "adults-only" than usual. Yet, underneath all of that, it’s a pretty straightforward story without much in the way of plot progression. For fans of mature anime, Immoral Guild might be entertaining, but it’s definitely not for everyone. One thing the show does get ri...

FAP-305 Samurai 7 - Bought And Paid For with Rice

We dive into a true classic, based on a film from the 1950s. It was genuinely entertaining, with solid storytelling and decent music. The character development was seamlessly woven into the plot, enhancing the experience by integrating backstories naturally without pulling you out of the story. This made the journey all the more enjoyable! Next Week's Pick: "Trapped in a Dating Sim" Have you had the chance to watch Samurai 7 or any of our previous selections?

FAP-304 The Reincarnation of the Strongest Exorcist in Another World - Let's Just Go Off In The Weeds

This week we get transported to another world only before we actually get there we get lost in the weeds with random details but after a few minutes we get back on track and then finally get to our destination. And it was an interesting one at that. It takes the normal genre and give the protagonist a set of skills that they had in their previous life but even with that, it ultimately still follows the same tropes for the anime and they also leave out a lot of detail, but even with that it was a...

FAP-303 The Boy and the Heron - Time Travel Included

This week, we explore another mesmerizing Ghibli movie! It’s a must-watch, filled with the magical elements we've come to love from Ghibli. However, it does carry a heavier tone in some spots. And if Spirited Away wasn’t your cup of tea, this one might not be either, as it shares a similar vibe—but if you like it then you may just like this one was well and it is also perfect for introducing anime newcomers to this fascinating genre. Next Week's Pick: "The Reincarnation of the Strongest Exorcist...

FAP-302 Love Tyrant - All About Learning To Love

This week's episode comes from a recommendation by Goose in our Discord community. "Love Tyrant" (Renai Bōkun) was an interesting choice, to say the least. This anime pokes fun at other anime tropes, and while it follows the standard harem style, it’s packed with comedy, making it an easy and enjoyable watch. If you’re looking for something light and funny without a deep storyline, this is a perfect pick for a quick break from your usual anime lineup. Next Week's Pick: "The Boy and The Heron" Ha...

FAP-297 Inu-Oh - Rock and Roll before Rock and Roll With #TokyoTreat

This week's cinematic journey took us back in time with the film Inu-Oh , a gem suggested by CJ from Anime Anonymous. Both of us found it to be a fantastic watch. The movie offered a fresh perspective on historical storytelling, blending unique theatrical elements with an unexpected rock and roll twist, making it fun in its own way. Though the plot left a little to be desired, the overall experience was thoroughly enjoyable. Next Week's Selection: Spy X Family Season 1 Our next episode will focu...

FAP-294 Tokyo Revengers Season 1 - Butterfly Effect with a side of crying

This week we talk about Tokyo Revengers season 1 and the story had some solid points to it, but it also had some draw backs, but it also had an interesting viewpoint on time travel as well as what is affected by it and in what way. In a way it is like it is a combination of a couple of different ideas that have already been explored. The selection for next week is "Tokyo Revengers Season 2".

FAP-293 The Wrong Way To Use Healing Magic - Like A Mutant Only Not with #TokyoTreat

This week was a solid choice, and it was one that certainly took you out of the norm for healing magic and gives it a fresh new look in a positive way. While the main character is not meant to be the hero of the story Usato is certainly the hero for a majority of people. The story as a whole is solid with great character development and comedic dialog to help break those serious scenes up. This one is well worth the watch, and we would recommend it to anyone. The selection for next week is "Toky...

FAP-292 Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill - Fel The Relatable

We take a moment this week with a change of pace and watch something a little more mellow. It was an enjoyable one that Rick had no issues with watching in public. Overall the story main characters were well rounded and written in a way that made them enjoyable. Fel was an enjoyable comedic relief that was not done in the usual way making it all the better. This one is for sure is one that is well worth a watch. The selection for next week is "The Wrong Way To Use Healing Magic" . Have you had t...

FAP-291 Ghost Stories Dubbed - You will be offended

Story time this week was all about some ghosts. More specifically it was about an anime called Ghost Stories. Specifically the dub version. It is something considered to be a dark comedy where they make fun of and offend every group and demographic. This is not a show for those who get easily offended and it can be fun to watch for some. With outlandish dialog through the series this is certainly one that makes it an interesting watch. The selection for next week is "Campfire Cooking in Another ...

FAP-290 Horizon In The Middle Of Nowhere season 2 - Just a repeat of PLOT

We continue our journey into the Horizon. Sadly, though for us it is just a repeat of what happened last time. The story was a repeat of what it was before and just more drawn out. Though it may be that way by design it may not be something that is for everyone. In general, we thought that if we watched it with a longer time in-between the 2 seasons that we would have viewed it better but also at the same time with how season 1 ended you needed to watch it back-to-back. The selection for next we...

FAP-289 Horizon In The Middle Of Nowhere - PLOT with a side of plot.

This week, we’re chatting about a show a fan suggested. At first, we weren’t sure if the story would go anywhere. There were bits that made us go ‘huh?’ and some stuff just didn’t get wrapped up. The show kept throwing these ‘gotcha’ moments at us. And they really loved showing off the ‘PLOT’ a lot, which kinda took away from the whole thing. But even with that it was still kind of a fun ride. The selection for next week is "Horizon in the Middle Of Nowhere" - Season 2. Have you had the chance t...

This week we talk about Solo Leveling an anime that both Jack and Rick were looking forward to with them being fans of the source material, they were pleased to see the justice that was done on the show.

FAP-285 Keijo!!!! - Fanservice and Not Much More

In this week’s episode, Rick brings us a series that’s all about combat with a twist—it’s fought with derrières and décolletages. The plot is thin, centered on sheer absurdity. Jack teases Rick, highlighting the series’ many weaknesses, while Rick counters by spotlighting its strengths. Yet, after lauding the series, Rick surprises us with a rating that dips below everyone’s expectations. The selection for next week is "The Demon Girl Next Door" Season 1.

FAP-283 Ningen Fushin - All About them Backstories

This week's focus is on Backstories. With each episode featuring a backstory and minimal character development, this anime is one for the books - in a bad way. In our opinion, it is one of the worst anime we have seen in a long time, almost as bad as Glasslip. Some characters even had us questioning why they were still present. In our opinion, this show is not worth watching, but if you need a break from all the great shows you watch, this may be what you need. The selection for next week is Cha...

FAP-282 - High-Rise Invasion - There are questions everywhere.

This week's topic is High-Rise Invasion, an intriguing take on the isekai genre set in a modern-day environment rather than a medieval one. While the story showed potential, it fell short in some aspects, leaving the us with numerous unanswered questions and while at the same time giving us unnecessary fanfare. By the end of the series, it seemed as though the creators were pushing for a second season, but there is no guarantee that it will happen. Despite its shortcomings, the anime had its mer...
