“This podcast is hard to listen to. The hosts laugh at their own jokes (which are cringey at best) and barely know what’s going on in the books they cover.”

“These guys are insufferable, they laugh at every dumb thought they have and it’s never funny, their jokes are never funny, they struggle to understand a lot of the manga they read, it’s just bad.”

“My favourite manga podcast……..and my favourite podcast period. It’s really funny, really clever and, at times, Very very very smart. The two hosts always have great things to say. They know how to raise a good manga up and take a bad one down. If you love manga you need to start getting into...”Read full review »

“I encountered a manga a few years ago and I for the life of me can’t remember what it was called. All I remember is that it’s not a new one but it was about these ninken clans that fought each other (?). I know that the main dog was taking his fathers place and he was in command of groups of...”Read full review »

“Honestly such a good podcast! Chris and Nik are funny and have good taste; they don't just recommend anything with cool action scenes, they really critique things in a fair manner. Since they've been on the air for nearly a decade now the show has become a mainstay in my week.”Read full review »

“While a podcast firmly in the genre of two dudes (and occasionally guests) talking to each other, Weekly Manga Recap is a standout in that crowded field for its hosts’ genuine rapport, digressions, and enthusiastic love of manga as an art form and storytelling medium. Chris and Nik make listening...”Read full review »

“WMR succeeds where most other manga podcasts fail. No hints of pretentiousness, animosity or awkward, uninteresting discussion between strangers here; just two good friends who are as likely to come up with convoluted theories on recent chapters as they are to go on wild tangents about wrestling...”Read full review »
