We are working with a wild season this year. Animes have been cooking, work, and our personal life as well but we are making it work lol. We get a chance to catch up with E-man and see what he has been watching. Big cartoon news came out this week. Enjoy!!

Are you like us, and YOU JUST LIKE ANIME!? Too many times we are getting too caught up with where anime comes from and slapping a tittie on it. In this day and age, we just need to pay our respect to Japan and respect the new age of anime from around the world. It is everywhere and we think that is the goal of any work of art, it is to Inspire the people of the world in a better way. One clear example Solo Leveling, out of 12 eps on Crunchyroll it has 9 episodes that are 10/10! This is amazing, so let's keep it going with watching anime and reading it. 

Is Goku father of the year with how he was with Gohan and Goten? We take a deep dive into his fathering style. We also take a red pill and look if someone fought for money, their child, and or the right thing

This week had to record in two parts because of life but life did throw a wrench again in our plans. So this week you only EGC and G.P this week. We get into the grove of some anime y'all should check out and let us know what you think about them. Let us know what have been watching. Spring anime is coming so we need to catch up fast and get ready for the new waves.

We hope all is well, We have been gone for a little bit but we are back. We do come back with a new intro and sad news. We can not believe we lost Akira Toriyama. We can not wait for more to come this season and bring some heat during this season.

We met Dan at work and found out he wrote his book and did some if not all his artwork as well. What a great time to hear how he gets his idea and how he creates his work. Enjoy and go grab his books on Amazon. Hit IG is Dannielcampbell check him out as well

In this episode, we talk with Dante. Who is a Fantasy Focused Cartoonist/ Graphic novelist and creator of The Foolz of April. We had a great time talking about his work, the industry of anime, and many other topics. Follow him on all his socials Artismyvoice

We were in our bag this week changing some movies that needed some change. DC is missing the mark and not Marvel is putting out to many movies. Let us know what you think and what would change of these movies

Animes always hit the spot but sometimes we might have to take some off our list because they are not passing the test of time. We have an interesting one for you this week. We are going at hits and taking them off our list. We wouldn't even recommend some animes that most people still like

Netflix is dropping more and more hits?! Onimusha is a great game that is now an anime on Netflix. So far it is not that but are you enjoying the artwork? Are you picking up what Netflix is putting down?

We get into Shangri-La Fronter but before we get there we are getting for a ton of animes to end or get to the highest point. A long awaited question should the hero take a back seat? We always want them to be there hero but do they need a day off like All Might had? lol

We talk about animes we are watching and animes to come but we talk about how Black Panter 2 needs to be redone or a better 3. We really get into Spider-Man vs. Batman!! Death Battle has Spider-Man winning and that's interesting. Let us know who you got.

We wanted to try something this time around. We were already talking and getting into the mood. Then we jump into the topic. Do you think WB should release a Mortal Kombat vs DC anime movie? We found out it was in the works but WB said "Naw we're good" lol. It would not be a bad idea but we would love to hear from you.

In this episode, we build out a team of cartoon and anime Team of 6 characters. Swordsmen, Healer, Magic/Utilities, Attack, Defence, Shoter, and Intelligence. What is unique is that you have to put yourself in one of the spots. We want you to build a team and let us know as well who is on your team. This episode we get spicy, enjoy and tell us your team.

We ask what anime should get a remake or reboot. There are so many animes or cartoons that need to come back. We need some to just be remanded to their true manga. Some just need to come back so the new gen of anime watchers can watch. Let us know what you anime or cartoons should come back for one more ride.

Oh, we have a good one for you this week. We want to know which one could you live with forever Anime or Cartoon. They have their pros and cons but one has a little more than the other. Which one would you live with forever?

Oh have a good one for you this week, EGC had to take cause of some family business so he is not with us this week. GP and E-Man try to figure out which anime has the best powers that can really last in the real world. Animes have a ton of power, KI, Magic books, or even chakra. There are a lot of powers out there but who has the best to you? Let us know on IG to Twitter.

We BACK LIKE SAMURAI JACK!! Hope everyone is doing well. We missed you all so much in season 3. We have been watching anime and catching up on anime on our wish list. What have you been watching? We have the live-action One Piece, My Home Hero, Zom 100, No Day No Life, and JJK. We have the Big Three coming back. So much to watch, we are going to have to Change the Algorithm!!

Anime has many ideas and themes, we have 3 generations of anime watchers learning so much that everyone has learned something even from watching the same animes. Life, Death, History, Hope, Teamwork, etc. Anime may look like it is for kids or has no real themes but when you pay attention to what is going on so long you can learn a thing or two. Thank you for listing this season, we will see you in season 4. You can follow us and reach us on the Tri-Verse podcast on Instagram and Twitter

This week talk to Z who is from Canada and part of E-mans universe. Z breaks down how Saturday morning cartoons were in Canada back in the day. We learn a lot of the cartoons we watched came from way up north lol. We also learned that most cartoons were there the same but in Canada, they would change some of the intros because they had their own set of rules. We even learned about some cartoons that could not forget but we forgot time lol. So good to hear about time and talk about them with Z and the Tri-Verse.
