Nerdom and Other Nonsense Anime Podcast #083 - Sock Puppet Seduction

Nerdom and Other Nonsense Anime Podcast

Bcom, Kat, and Leo are back to talk about week 7 of the Winter 2019 anime season. In this week’s episode of Mob Psycho, Reigen’s psychic abilities are put to the test on a live variety show which clarifies how important Reigen’s partnership with Mob is in defining his future. Our favorite running boys make their final preparations for the Hakone Ekiden, and we make some not-so-bold predictions after learning the section assignments for each leg of the race. Kat feels Kemurikusa has become too much like a video game, and Bcom and Leo are just looking for a controller to grab. In The Promised Neverland, Sister Krone opens our eyes with some new information about the relationship between the humans and demons in the world outside the orphanage, but Isabella appears to be two steps ahead of everyone. After an impromptu karaoke session, we jump back into JoJo where we get our first glimpse of the infamous King Crimson, but we lose track of time chatting about squid ink pasta, fishing, and double-tapping your enemies. At some point we move onto Domestic Girlfriend, which continues to cement itself as the greatest anime in existence, and also teaches Leo and Bcom an invaluable lesson about the role sock puppets can play in winning over a woman’s heart. After we complain about Kaguya’s boring episode titles, we learn that it’s essential to get a part-time job and a boat license before even considering holding your crush’s hand. We finish off with an episode of Dororo that raises questions about the true nature of demons, and whether Hyakkimaru must actually slay them all, or if some can be saved.
