Episode 50 of Our Isekai finds hosts Uchenna and Faith celebrating the milestone by tackling a playful but pointed question: "Where is your husband?" Inspired by a TikTok song by Raye, we explore yearning for love across films, TV and anime. The episode highlights examples like How I Met Your Mother, Pride & Prejudice, Bridgerton, You, Yona of the Dawn and more, and includes fun segments — Versus and Red Light/Green Light — that rank fictional husbands and relationship red flags.

Episode 49 explores endings that left us devastated, endings that healed us, and everything in between. We discuss heartbreaking film finales (like The Mist and Black Swan), feel-good series conclusions (Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Avatar: The Last Airbender), anime and TV verdicts, and a roundup of current entertainment news. Segments include “Main Quest” on emotional finales, “World Entertainment Tales” news, “Verses” debating which endings you'd rather live through, and “Red Light Green Light” rating famous endings.

From Nollywood first loves to anime and Hollywood romcoms — Faith and Uchenna unpack the four pillars of on-screen romance and what they get right (and wrong). Love isn’t just one thing it’s messy, ideal, material, funny, fleeting, and forever. But when movies, anime, and TV sell us love stories, are they showing us truth… or selling us fantasy? In Episode 48 of Our Isekai: First Loves — Nollywood’s Romantic Attraction & Ghibli’s Whisper of the Heart. Pillar 1: Idealised Romance (Your Name, The Notebook, Bridgerton) — soulmates, grand gestures, and impossible expectations. Pillar 2: Messy Situationships (500 Days of Summer, Fleabag, Nana) — heartbreak, limbo, and toxic “almost” love. Pillar 3: Materialist Romances (Materialists, Crazy Rich Asians, Pretty Woman) — love shaped by money, class, and ambition. Pillar 4: OG Romcoms (When Harry Met Sally, Notting Hill, 10 Things I Hate About You) — banter, awkwardness, family chaos, and the fast-forwarded happily-ever-after. We discuss: We debate:👉 Do idealised romances harm expectations more than they help?👉 Are “messy” stories relatable — or just depressing?👉 Do money-and-status romances reflect dating today more honestly than we want to admit?👉 Which romcom trope feels the most real — and which is the biggest lie? PLUS:📰 WENS (World Entertainment News Segment) — rap beefs, Dave’s album, Boruto drama, Taylor’s Bar album, Kanye betrayals & more.📚 Books of the Week — The Cows (Dawn O’Porter), How to Kill Men and Get Away with It (Katy Brent), Married Lovers (Jackie Collins).🔥 Versus & Red Light, Green Light — Judging famous couples from Ross & Rachel to Naruto & Hinata.

Welcome back to Our Isekai! Episode 47 is a wild ride through reality TV drama, anime fandom wars, bizarre internet rumours, and some of the most iconic romantic speeches ever written. MAIN QUEST – Married at First Sight UK (Episodes 1–4) We break down the explosive first four episodes of MAFS UK Season 10. From Leah & Leigh’s awkward wedding kiss refusal to Anita calling “time out” on Paul, and Julia-Ruth kicking Divarni out of the honeymoon suite — the drama is already unmatched. Who are the fan favourites, who’s doomed, and which couples are playing for the cameras?  NEWS FEEDS – Entertainment Hot Topics • Anime fandom gatekeeping: are “anime tourists” really ruining the culture, or saving it from its own blind spots? • The viral driving licence rumour — can you really drive in the UK with just a theory test? Spoiler: no. • Protesters flying One Piece flags as symbols of rebellion. • TikTok’s RaptureTok goes viral: prophecy, panic, and memes about being “left behind.” • Film buzz: Jordan Peele’s Him, The Rock in The Smashing Machine, and the Chainsaw Man Rezes Arc. • TV shifts: Stranger Things, The Handmaid’s Tale, Outlander, Cobra Kai, and Mythic Quest all end in 2025. • Book picks: King of Greed (Ana Huang), Butcher & Blackbird (Brynne Weaver), That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon (Kimberly Lemming).  ROMANTIC SPEECHES OF ALL TIME From Meredith’s desperate “Pick me, choose me” in Grey’s Anatomy to Mr. Darcy’s yearning in Pride & Prejudice (2005), Fitz’s toxic devotion in Scandal, and the tragic lines of Moulin Rouge! and Phantom of the Opera — we debate why pop culture worships intensity, even when it’s messy.  VERSUS – Funny Cross-Universe Scenarios Would you rather date Joe Goldberg (You) or Light Yagami (Death Note)? And which party would you survive: Tony Stark’s billionaire bash or Willy Wonka’s candyland death trap?  RED LIGHT, GREEN LIGHT – Demon Slayer Infinity Castle We rate Tanjiro, Nezuko, Zenitsu, Inosuke, Kanao, Muzan, Giyu, Sanemi, Gyomei, Obanai, Mitsuri, Kokushibo, Akaza, and Nakime.

Welcome back to Our Isekai! This week’s Main Quest dives into Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle — Ufotable’s most ambitious spectacle yet. From gravity-defying Escher stairs to Kanao’s glow-up and Muzan’s villain problem, we ask: did Infinity Castle break anime cinema or just flex its render farm? In Hot Feeds, we tackle the chaos of Taylor Swift’s engagement, Whitney & Lochan’s post-show update, AI relationships, Sabrina Carpenter’s new album cover, Cardi B’s rollout, Megan Thee Stallion’s K-pop collab, Twilight’s big screen return, and whether the song of the summer has lost its spark.

Finally, Red Light, Green Light puts A Simple Favor (2018) and Pride & Prejudice (2005) on trial — do they stay Green, or is it time to stop? 📌 New episodes every week — film, TV, anime, and all the trending madness online.
