Nerdom and Other Nonsense Anime Podcast #098 - I Want to Connect, but I am an Abstract Concept

Bcom, Kat, and Leo discuss week 11 of the Spring 2019 anime season. Bcom leads off the podcast with a rave retro review of the first season of Sailor Moon while Kat details her plans for Anime Expo. We jump into a debate about how much Fruits Basket’s Tohru can give of herself to others before it becomes self-harming. It’s about that time in JoJo to start getting really confused about what’s going on, but we do our best to make sense of Chariot Requiem and his arrow of doom. Demon Slayer introduces an extremely annoying new character who Leo determines has less of a backbone than Bocchi Hitori, which is…impressive. Dororo deftly explains the entire philosophy of the show in a climactic debate about how to resolve the conflict between Hyakkimaru and Tahoumaru. The great Attack on Titan lore dump continues with another jam-packed episode where characters keep making excuses for Eren who is having a series of 15-year-old moments. Leo tells us that he grew up with someone just like Garou from One Punch Man, and that guy didn’t turn out very well either. We close out the final episode of Sarazanmai, and try to break down the quite literal abstract concepts that Ikuhara has expressed in wrapping up the show. Finally, we end the episode by discussing whether Carole and Tuesday deserve to keep moving on through the Mars Brightest contest given the strong competition they’ve been facing.

Recorded July 2, 2019.
