  1. A fantastic episode as always! I always enjoy your season analysis. The discussion about WITCH WATCH was very interesting. Keep it up! When will you release your fall season review?

  2. The timestamps make it easy to jump straight to the Kaiju No. 8 and Dress-Up Darling segments. Summer 2025 had a lot of second seasons, so a review covering that many shows in one episode is handy.

  3. Giving Kaiju No. 8 Season 2 and Leviathan several minutes each while the lighter romcoms get a quick pass feels like the right balance. I’m curious whether Necron held up for you after the first few episodes.

  4. Welcome to the Outcast’s Restaurant was a surprise pick for me last summer, so it’s nice to see it get its own slot in the rundown. Dr. Stone getting more than two minutes makes sense with how much happens in that second cour.
