Nerdom and Other Nonsense Anime Podcast #120 - Unrealistic Wolf Licking

Nerdom and Other Nonsense Anime Podcast

Bcom, Kat, and Leo are back to talk about the 4th week of the Winter 2020 anime season! Bcom recaps the lead-up to the Meijin and Queen match in the latest episode of Chihayafuru. We argue over whether Eizouken’s imagination sequences are worthwhile or whether the show would be more effective in a documentary format. Bcom breaks down how ID: Invaded references an early 20th century detective story this episode. Dorohedoro goes balls to the wall with some of its craziest plot developments and animation yet. We talk more than we really should about what is realistic vs. unrealistic wolf licking when it comes to Seton Academy. BOFURI introduces the cutest turtle in the history of anime – get rekt Squirtle – and Maple appropriately names him Syrup. Tall guys sometimes need a boost to their confidence to as we learn in the latest episode of Haikyu. And finally, we close out the episode with a scintillating and titillating review of the latest escapes of the Interspecies Reviewers.
Recorded February 24, 2020.
