Unlike my will to live, the Boiz are going strong and are back to continue rambling about my (Silver) favorite anime Gintama. We pick up where we left off and dive deeper into major themes of the show and allusions concerning certain historical Japanese moments explored by Gintama, albeit in a hilarious way, and really nosedive into the rabbit hole to see how DEEP Gintama can get. Again, if you still have not watched the show do yourself a favor and give it a shot. If you HAVE given it a shot and do not like it, please seek medical attention immediately because something is seriously wrong with you. ___________________________________________ Follow us on twitter @BoizAnime for exclusive Boiz updates and memes.    If you like what we do and would like to see more, consider subscribing to our YouTube Channel Otakutariat (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCa5Wbn7NtRKk9AASMhpE9MQ) and feel free to support us on Patreon and become a Homie today!   Peace.

Happy Holidays and early Happy new year! First off, F**K this year. Once you’re done drinking away the pain that was 2020, sit back and listen to your favorite Boiz who ramble about anime with part two of our C: The Control podcast. We pick up where we left off last time but this time talking about spicy topics such as communism, potato bland topics such as neo liberalism and explotation, and lobster topics such as capitalism. We talk about money circulation and also talk about which parts of the anime we disliked (Spoilers: it was a lot). ___________________________________________ Follow us on twitter @BoizAnime for exclusive Boiz updates and memes.

Hey yall, your favorite Ramblin Boiz are back with probably our most divisive and personally hilarious discussions on a show all year with the first part of C: The Control. What if you took to 2007-08 financial crisis and turned it into an anime? We didn't know either until now. Listen as we deep dive into what may be the most unique concept (with debatable execution) for a series in recent memory. This episode focuses more on the plot execution, character development, and world building. Honestly yall, this discussion had us ROLLING at so many points. We hope it brings you the same joy.

Does checking out the news fill you with an unmeasurable rage but no proper channel to express it? Do you ever feel the urge to just deck someone square in the jaw simply because they exist?

If you answered yes to even one of those, stop everything you are doing and listen to this episode of the AnimeRamblinBoiz! In this episode we discuss the boxing anime Megalobox and talk about the meaningful (or not meaningful) characters, general themes, some of our favorite arcs in the show (there is only one right answer) and much more. ___________________________________________ Follow us on twitter @BoizAnime for exclusive Boiz updates and memes.

As I suffocate in my very hot apartment longing for the cold winds of Minnesota winter to give me frostbite again, please take pity on my tortured and sweat depleted soul by giving part 2 of our Beastars podcast a listen. That’s right you sexy motherfuckers your favorite bois of color who ramble about anime (too much) are back to continue talking about how this show tackles important ideas like biological determinism. We also dive elbow deep into discussing and comparing the social hierarchies in this anime universe vs the ones in our world and how the show addresses the “noble lie.”  If you have never heard of this term before this podcast like me, don’t fret Tropical has got you covered with a VERY detailed walkthrough on the matter.  ___________________________________________ Follow us on twitter @BoizAnime for exclusive Boiz updates and memes.

Zootopia this ain't! Welcome to the world of Beastars where eating, lust, puberty, love, and somehow Jimmy Neutron (don't ask us ask Texas Ranger) mix into a soup of an amazing character drama. Listen to your favorite Ramblin Boiz discuss all the facets of social isolation, bio determinism, agency, and simphood (don't ask us ask Silver). In this first part we focus on our main trio of characters as we flesh out all the detail the show presents. Who are these people at their core? Are they handling their conflicts well (spoiler it's a mixed bag)? And can someone please just give this deer some happiness (don't ask us ask Tropical Robot)! Be on the lookout for part 2 coming soon and definitely give this show a watch after listening, yes even if you don't like walking talking animals (don't ask us ask Bass).

YOUR favorite Bois who Ramble about Anime are back with part 2 of our podcast about Assassination Classroom. In this episode we tackle power structures within education systems; continue to analyze why Bass hates this show; how the show does a horrible and weird job showing marginalization within the elite (basically, the show says fuck poor people); why police sirens are the worst noise ever devised, and why korosensei is such a great teacher and the only character worth discussing in the show (AI girl is great too though). ___________________________________________ Follow us on twitter @BoizAnime for exclusive Boiz updates and memes.

Did you ever go through life wondering if your poor grades in school were due to a bad teacher, or perhaps it was a lack of effort on your part? Well, stop. We both know it was 100% you, but if you’re still interested in imagining a class with a fantastic teacher, look no further. The Boiz are back and this time we are talking about the school anime Assassination Classroom, specifically season 1. In this part we discuss the general narrative, characters, our initial thoughts on the series (spoiler: Bass HATES it, like most things we watch rip) and a discussion on the lows of the show, the highs, and the lows again. Is Assassination Classroom worth watching? Does it live up to the hype it gets? Is it one of the best comedy animes? Why does Bass hate this show so much? Why is an AI the best character of this show? Why am I asking all these questions as if that counts as writing a good episode description? All these questions and more will be addressed in this week’s episode! _____________________________________________ Follow us on twitter @BoizAnime for exclusive Boiz updates and memes.

With the world still going to s*** but slowly coming out of lockdowns, I hope you have been hitting the gyms and hitting that SIDE CHESTO. But if you have not left your couch yet (I don’t blame you, the world sucks) listen to part TWO of our podcast on the greatest fitness show ever created. We continue our discussion from part one while discussing areas that the show could explore in season two. We then have fireside chat on gym culture, our individual experiences with it, and how the show portrays it. Last, we talk our favorite moments in the show, and how everything in gym culture, fitness, etc. comes down to sexuality in the end. (Don’t get too excited, the gym is the WORST place for a hard on.

Our Isekai adventure continues in part II of our Konosuba discussion. In this episode, we discuss perspectives in which Konosuba (as both an isekai and a comedy) can be interpreted, how viewing the show through a gaming/RPG lens actually may be what the original author wanted and is hinted at throughout the show, how Konosuba stacks up against other comedy anime (Gintama is still #1 but Konosuba is right up there), and detailing our favorite moments throughout the show such as Darkness being best girl, Aqua being useless, how there are some things we must absolutely protect, and how serving the Soviet Yunyun is the only valid political ideology.

Feeling cabin fever from the quarantine? Need a quick pick me up to put a smile on your face from thinking of the pandemic and rising unemployment and the inevitable global economic collapse as our planet slowly but surely does everything in its power to eradicate humanity as the insects that we are? If yes, both the Anime Konosuba and this accompanying podcast are just the cure! In a homage to our first ever podcast (on Kaguya Sama), we once again dive deep in an attempt to analyze one of the greatest comedy animes of our generation: Konosuba, an anime where a Japanese shut in gets run over (not really) by a truck (tractor) and gets reincarnated into a fantasy world with the only item in his possession being the goddess Aqua (a useless goddess). We dissect what makes the characters endearing (Darkness is best girl), what the difference is between satire and parody (Tropical is right and I gave up my argument - Silver), which category Konosuba falls into, and much more. I know you have NOTHING else going on in your lives aside from the existential dread, so give in to some good old escapism and listen to this podcast today!

Are you slowly losing your sanity from the quarantine due to COVID? Do you have endless time on your hands in between your binge eating, meme browsing, and hentai watching lives and feel you need a pick me up? Well, this episode is definitely NOT it. We unpack the dark, gloomy, and ever changing laws of anime on Youtube, specifically referring to COPPA, and how this may impact, or has already impacted, your favorite anime Youtubers and what we can expect in the near future. All these questions and more will be answered in this episode. Come on. We both know you have NOTHING else going on. Will Boomers in congress ever understand what the fuck anime even is? Will the AnimeRamblinBoiz ever start their own youtube channel but are hesitant because of COPPA? Should we just have the FTC watch hentai and tell them its for the culture?

Have you ever watched an anime and wondered about what goes into the production process? Have you ever been curious about the dynamics of the anime industry and how it treats its workers? Have you ever watched an anime, been so moved by it, and decided buying merch was the best way to support your favorite shows because you’ve been brainwashed by capitalist ideology that perpetuates the notion that more consumption is always the solution? If these questions apply to you then this episode is for you!  In this episode of the AnimeRamblinBoiz, we analyze the anime industry, which NO ONE talks about, and the often times harsh working conditions that hopeful animators must face to bring YOU your favorite anime every year.  How the hell does anime get made in the first place?

Ever wonder why emo kids and hood folk can be so different, come from widely different sets of experiences, but yet are able to bond over their love for anime? Well, episode 6 of the AnimeRamblinBoiz podcast has you covered! We analyze how seemingly separate groups of people and communities (people who listen to punk, hip pop, rap, and emo rap etc) converge with fellow anime fans in their admiration of the anime as a medium representing overcoming adversity and defying the status quo. Fascinated by the seemingly random intersectionality between all these different groups and their distinct backgrounds? Curious what links them all together under the umbrella of anime?

Have you ever told someone you liked anime and they responded with “like the cartoons?” or “aren’t you too old to be watching that stuff?” or the iconic “that’s just for kids?” Have you ever wondered where such preconceptions come from in western cultures? In episode 5 of the AnimeRamblinBoiz podcast, we dive deep into the scholarship (while TropicalRobot swan dives in) and uncover where Anime stereotypes & preconceptions in the West come from and how the Disney model of animation itself is the originator of the mainstream perception that cartoons (and by extension Anime) are for kids and not for adults. (Long story short: blame Disney and Snow White specifically, folks.) What does it mean to be an anime fan? Why are YOU truly an anime fan? Why are people of Color or people from disenfranchised backgrounds drawn to anime? Why do most people in the west NOT get anime?

Fate/Zero is an action packed, drama/thriller/tragedy (but NOT a Greek Tragedy) and a masterpiece of entertainment. Seven mages summon seven heroic spirits of ancient times (such as Gilgamesh, King Arthur, and Alexander the Great) to do battle in a Holy Grail War for the chance to win the grail and to wish for a miracle.

We hope you’re hungry because in this episode we will be going over a show we devoured these past few weeks: season 1 of The Promised Neverland. The show follows three “top scoring” children from an "orphanage" as they discover that they are being raised to be harvested by “demons”. In a race against the clock, they must strategically plan their escape from their “farm” and outwit their “benevolent overseer” (momma Isabella) in a drastic attempt to overcome their predestined fate as mere cattle to be consumed by their capitalist demon overlords (because of course they would be capitalists).
