Episode description

School's back in session!

Despite Corona Virus' best efforts, nothing can stop the Japanese Education System from doing what it does best: mercilessly testing children. This week, Jon will once again be our guide through the ups and downs (mostly downs, to be honest) of Japanese High School Entrance Exams. 

It's also International Women's Day, so we will be including a short segment highlighting some important women in the male-dominated anime industry. 

Taking the topics of anime and high-school hell and then combining them in quite literal fashion, Tom talks about Welcome to Demon School, Iruma-Kun, a cheerful, colourful Isekai/Shounen/Comedy combo that's sure to put a smile on the faces of even the saddest of Japanese children.

Hopefully. 

They are all very small and have no money, so you can imagine the kind of stress they are under.
