This week are talking about Akudama Drive and honestly for us it was not that great of a show. It was not horrible but it also was not great. This anime follows a group of criminals that all literally named after what their crime or specialty is, like Courier, Brawler, Doctor, Hacker. Each character has a unique design and video game-like feel which is not to surprising since one of the creators worked for a game company. But one of the major downsides for us aside from the pacing was how predictable everything was. We also dig into the weird pacing issues, the over-the-top gore that felt gratuitous with the amount of censorship there was as well. Basically it was watchable but forgettable, especially if you're hoping for something engaging.Next Week's Pick: "By The Grace Of Gods Season 2"Have you had the chance to watch Akudama Drive or any of our previous selections?

In this episode, we dive into a massive list of the media we're currently loving! From novels and manga to anime, YouTube channels, TV shows, podcasts, and music—we cover a little bit of everything. It's a fun, wide-ranging conversation full of recommendations and fangirling, and we barely scratched the surface. Don't worry, we tried not to overwhelm you (too much)! Plus a little bit of convention news and your feedback.

On this week's episode, I'm rejoined by Crunchyroll EVP Mitchel Berger to talk about anime's increasing popularity with those yearning for community. We reference a report on the state of anime several times; you can read it here. The long and the short of it, though, is that anime is increasingly popular with Gen Z and Gen Alpha, which will likely come as no surprise to anyone who has seen the wall of manga in their local Barnes and Noble. From theatrical rollouts in the United States and around the world to the 17-million-subscriber-strong Crunchyroll streaming service to the sold-out Anime Expo in Los Angeles earlier this month, it's an enormous segment of the market that holds a deep attachment to younger audiences. If you enjoyed this week's episode, I hope you share it with a friend!

This week we are talking about Vexations of a Shut-in Vampire Princess which was a recommendation from Shut In Jeb. And it was an interesting choice. The anime overall was enjoyable for both of us. But at the same time there were several questions that we had for most of the show that we watched and it was not something that we could look over. We dive into things that are not fully explained by the anime and it left Jack with a bad taste in his mouth. And for Rick there were somethings that he could not get past. But it is one that we would recommend. All in all this is a show that is still worth a watch.Next Week's Pick: "Akudama Drive"Have you had the chance to watch Vexations of a Shut-in Vampire Princess or any of our previous selections?

This week we are talking about Anime-Gataris which was a recommendation from Major Montana. Was in so many words a love story to the fans of Anime. It hits all the thoughts and lingo that we usually use as well as habits that we use as well when it comes to anime. They in essence called us all out and at the same time broke the 4th wall all to have fun. That being said it was not without it's drawback and they were there for sure. With a shallow story and no real character development this story is purely here for fun and nothing more.Next Week's Pick: "Vexations of a Shut-in Vampire Princess"Have you had the chance to watch Anime-Gataris or any of our previous selections?

Crunchyroll announced during its Anime Expo panel on Saturday that the anime based on Yūki Tabata's Black Clover manga is getting a new season. The service will exclusively stream the anime. The company streamed a trailer and visual. Black Clover tells the story of Asta, an orphan born without magic in a world where magic is everything, and his rival, Yuno, a genius mage. They both aspire to become the Wizard King, the strongest mage in the Clover Kingdom. Despite his lack of magic, Asta strives to achieve his dream, ultimately gaining the rare five-leaf clover grimoire with anti-magic powers. The story follows their journey, showcasing their rivalry and the challenges they face as they navigate the world of magic knights and strive for the top position.

This week we are talking about Temple which was a recommendation from Jeb. It was a chaotic ride that also was a fan service heavy show. We dove into Akemitsu's painful attempts to stay pure while surrounded by anime's worst temptations, plus the sheer craziness of his dad racking up a 20 million yen debt just so he can try and get a global harem. In the end it was an anime that we laughed at, but because of the chaos we ended rewinding way more than usual just to catch what the hell was happening.Next Week's Pick: "Anime-Gataris" Have you had the chance to watch Temple or any of our previous selections?

This week we dive into Rokudo Bad Girls. The story is about a bullied underdog Rokudo who inherits a magic scroll that makes every bad girl, fall head over heels for him any time he's near. We go into detail about the show and the bold‑lined animation style, and we compare Roku's nonstop crying to the energy of Tokyo Revengers, we also wonder whether his shift from pushover to protector ever really sticks. In the end this show only really has surface‑level fun with a dash of character growth, even if our hero stays pretty whiny throughout, so if you're after something deeper, this probably isn't the show for you.Next Week's Pick: "Temple" Have you had the chance to watch Rokudo Bad Girl or any of our previous selections?

Okay, that's enough good series, it's back to the trash pits with Hensuki, also known as Are You Willing to Fall in Love with a Pervert, as Long as She's a Cutie? Would this combination of friendship tropes and fetishes blended together into a romcom exceed expectations, or be yet another in a long line of fanservice rubbish? ~ Welcome to That Time I Started A Podcast To Read Trash Manga With My Friends And Actually Most Of Them Were Trash But Some Of Them Weren't!

Is the Crunchyroll Anime Awards just a glorified popularity contest? Or… was it rigged for Solo Leveling?!
This week on Anime Pulse we got Aku Joseph, unsolved mysteries, and ten full miles. Up first Joseph hits his goal of a ten mile walk by visiting a cemetery named after his patron saint, and Andrew puts in his PTO for next week. Then in the industry news Crunchyroll makes one of the most idiotic polls ever. Finally in the reviews Joseph unseals a horrible version of himself to talk about why it is a bad idea to try and pickup girls in a dungeon, and Andrew joins the mafia to kill family in a town called Lawless.
The summer is officially here. The Lookout's Summer at Kame House series kicks off with our review of Solo Leveling Season 1. Meelz, LJ, and AD discuss how we feel about Crunchyroll's Anime of the Year, and dive into the characters, the threats, the world building, Sung Jin-woo, and what it represents in this new generation of anime.
In this episode we dive headfirst into 86's brutal drone war nonsense. The Republic claims a “bloodless conflict,” but it's really run on invisible 86ers shoved into glass-cannon mechs. We chat about Lena's efforts to bring hope to Shin and his crew, and what this anime reminds us of in terms of undertones that were not so subtle. We also touch on Shin's psychic telepathy angle and that slow-burn connection between him and Lena. Sure, the pacing stumbles with flashbacks on repeat and a few loose threads never get resolved, but the heart of the story still packs a punch.Next Week's Pick: "Rokudo Bad Girls"Have you had the chance to watch 86 or any of our previous selections?

¡Bienvenidos a Multianime Podcast Ep 3x22! En este episodio, Alex y Andy continúan la conversación sobre uno de los temas más candentes: la Inteligencia Artificial en la Industria del Anime (Parte 2).Exploramos las controversias que la IA ha generado, desde acusaciones falsas a artistas hasta el preocupante uso de voces clonadas de actores de doblaje sin permiso. Analizamos las posturas de estudios como Crunchyroll y Cover Corp (Hololive), que apuestan por el talento humano, frente a otros que experimentan con la IA para eficiencia.También abordamos las recientes y duras acciones legales contra la piratería, incluyendo sitios de spoilers y plataformas de distribución ilegal, y el debate ético sobre el consumo de contenido pirata.Uno de los puntos más críticos es el impacto de la IA en el empleo creativo, especialmente para los nuevos talentos que podrían perder los puestos de entrada a la industria si las tareas básicas se automatizan. ¿Cómo afectará esto la formación de futuros animadores y artistas?Discutimos la urgencia de la regulación en Japón y comparamos su enfoque con la inversión de Corea del Sur y los modelos de generación de anime con IA de China (como Anisora de Bilibili). ¿Estamos ante un futuro de anime artesanal o uno masificado por algoritmos?Revivimos la polémica del falso comunicado de Studio Ghibli y el debate sobre la replicación de estilos artísticos con IA.Además, recapitulamos brevemente la cobertura de la CCXP y compartimos recomendaciones de streaming: Mikey 17 (HBO Max), Your Friends & Neighbors (Apple TV) y El Eternauta (Netflix).¿Cuál es tu postura sobre la IA en el anime? ¿Qué tipo de anime quieres apoyar y preservar? ¡Déjanos tus comentarios! Y participa en nuestra encuesta de Spotify sobre la piratería.Sigue a Multianime en todas nuestras redes sociales como @multianimeMX y visita nuestro sitio web multianime.com.mx para más noticias y contenido. ¡Apoya siempre el trabajo y la pasión de los artistas que hacen posible el anime que amamos!#Anime #InteligenciaArtificial #IA #Pirateria #Doblaje #VoiceActing #IndustriaAnime #Japon #CoreaDelSur #China #Crunchyroll #Ghibli #Webtoon #Podcast #MultianimePodcast #ElFuturoDelAnime #ArteDigital #Animación
This week is all about I May Be A Guild Receptionist, But I'll Solo Any Boss To Clock Out On Time with just Jack. Now the story is something that is pretty solid and it had all the makings of a great show. The story was easy enough to follow and it did focus on what the title exactly is and it really highlights her struggles. But also at the same time there is no real depth to some of it and honestly you are left with far more questions then what you are given answers too leaving you with a open ending. Even with that it is still worth a watch.Next Week's Pick: "Eighty-Six - 86" Have you had the chance to watch I May Be A Guild Receptionist, But I'll Solo Any Boss To Clock Out On Time or any of our previous selections?
