In a revamp from a previous episode we do another anime shark tank. This is where we take ideas/concepts for an anime and tell them they should have funding this minute why hasn’t someone made it yet?! Or, rip the idea to shreds because it will never work. This time though, users submitted the ideas! Who will have the best one?
Impressions: Hamatora the Animation, Strange +, D-Frag, Hoozuki no Reitetsu, Inari no Konkon Koi Iroha
Here at the AAA we talk a lot. Hey, that’s okay though right? That’s what you came here for! But, how do we talk? Suggested by one of our listeners we really dive deep and analyze ourselves as critics. Why do we like one anime and not another? What do we look at when we consider anime?
