Anime Against the World
Sam and Will
145 episodes
9 months ago
Know anything about anime? Because Will certainly didn't, until his anime-loving, best bud moved his butt all the way from the UK to Japan! As a way to keep in touch, our hosts decided to set up a podcast! What's the theme you ask? Well, originally it was all about teaching the novice Will all about anime, and there is a substantial back log of episodes focussed on just this for you to enjoy! This was also under the name Gateway to the Aniverse, so you may come across that title from time to time... Nowadays however, the boys have diversified somewhat, since obviously Will has been promoted to Hobby Weeb, and everyone is welcome! Anime, of course, is still a core part of the show, but it is now much more open ended and honestly, who knows what they will talk about week to week. Hopefully it's entertaining if nothing else, and we hope you can get on board with this weird pen pal podcast and join the Anime community in their battle Against the World!

The One Piece Live Action made me cry
Wow what a rollercoaster! After reading some of the manga to One Piece, Will had no idea how invested he would become in the live action, and Sam can do nothing but agree! Live vicariously through these two idiots as they gush about Luffy and the crew!

Fire Force anime AND Books maybe suck but are also great?
This week Sam and Will reveal how they prefer to consume content! In a very wandering yet reflective discussion, they share their inner thoughts about the different ways to experience their favourite stories, and their revelations may surprise you! Or, the may be very predictable, who knows! Finally, they examine the first three episodes of FIRE FORCE, and it provokes some mixed emotions...

We've also got DC's newest attempt at the DCEU and the long anticipated across the spider-verse! Honestly, the pedigree speaks for itself. If you want to here our views, stick around!

The Book of Boba Fett and Megalobox
This week, Will has finally caught up on The Book of Boba Fett and the boys get down and dirty talking about whether an oversized battle droid could actually take on a rancor. This is a fun, if not very law abiding conversation. After that, it's onto the anime of the week in Megalobox and boy is this a fun one that scratches an itch for Will and Sam pretends to have watched the show in preparation for this recording!

Urusei Yatsura and Are Board Games still Relevant?
This week, Will has been introduced to the phenomenon that is board games, through specifically board game cafes. Sam shares his endless wisdom on the topics and we have ourselves a good debate on whether they're still relevant or not. From there, they unpick this week's anime, which as it says in the title, is Urusei Yatsura! Honestly one of the oddest shows to describe, but it's supposed to be a slice of life comedy but with a bit of alien invasion and spiritual possession thrown in for good luck.

This week  we take a look at the MCU Phase 4 releases and whether or not we've seen it will have no impact whatsoever on our judgement! We then take a dive into the world of Gundam for Will's first exposure to the franchise, all because he likes building little model robots. Enjoy!

Guardians of the Galaxy 3 Review and Naruto: the FIRST MOVIE!
This week, both our boys have caught up of Guardians, and decided to jump on the band wagon and review it. Unfortunately, it's taken a long time to upload, so we're like a month over due, but hey, if you're curious, here's our thoughts! We also watch the first Naruto movie, Ninja Clash in the Land of Snow! Which gets us chatting our usual nonsense about anime...

The Super Mario Bros. Movie and Oshi No Ko - Episode 1!
This week, we discuss the life of a pop idol in Japan, probably too much. We discuss mysterious reincarnations,  suspicious characters, emotional backstories and creative writing. This show tackles deep topics well and has plenty going for it, but we also hold up a mirror to some of it's shortcomings. Is this a good gateway show to a noob? Let us know your thoughts!

Blue Lock - Is this a show for FOOTBALL FANS, or just another SHONEN?
This week, we pull apart the entire first season of Blue Lock. Will, a football fan, comes at it from a footballing perspective, and definitely has some thoughts! Does the show do justice to footballers' skill? Is it realistic to game situations? Are the players too over powered? All of these questions discussed, all the while acknowledging the incredible entertainment value of this genius concept!

We talk the FIRST POKEMON MOVIE and Will get's a lesson on RPG's...
This week, Sam makes us shatter our rose tinted glasses on the Pokémon gym floor as we revisit the first movie, one we both saw in the cinema at the time it was released and both have fond memories of. Does the film do justice to our nostalgia? 
Also, after recently playing through Hogwarts Legacy, Will needs some guidance on RPG's as a whole and Sam is there to offer a nurturing hand.
