Nerdom and Other Nonsense Anime Podcast #132 - Bakarina's Harem is Basically a Pokédex

Nerdom and Other Nonsense Anime Podcast

Kat, Leo, and Bcom are back to talk about anime that aired during Week 5 of the Spring 2020 season. The latest episode of Wave, Listen to Me was ruined by turtle poop. A romantic rival for Haru appears in Sing Yesterday, and Bcom grows somewhat more irritated by both Shinako and Haru for falling into the same unproductive patterns. Bakarina wins over the main heroine’s mother with some farming and kindness. Gleipnir continues to depict the sweatiest legs in anime. Arisa meets a new Souma, and becoming attached to him might lead her to be caught up in more Souma family drama. We get into a rant about skimpy outfits in anime in our coverage of Princess Connect, where the girls have to rescue Yuuki from a nightmare hospital. Chika’s maternal instincts kick in once again as Miyuki needs a mommy to guide him through his traumatic singing experiences. Finally, we talk about the latest episode of Baseball New Animal, which is the latest in a long tradition of great individual baseball episodes in non-sports anime.
Recorded May 25, 2020.
