5 Nii-San Rating!

I was really excited to stumble across this anime podcast. I have been looking for one for some time and could not settle on one worthy of subscribing to until I came across Nii-San podcast. If you need another podcast to listen to, let’s face it, you probably do, then add this podcast to your feed!

Love the recommendations on what to check out next in the world of anime! I started watching Jujutsu Kaisen from your glowing reviews and it has been such a great show.

Recommendation:

I would love for you to do deep dives/retrospectives on some of the genre defining shows/movies. Oh and any love for Canon Busters? That show was another great anime!

Love the show and I look forward to the next episode!
