here’s never a dull moment in the world of anime and Pop Break is diving right into the action! Join anime enthusiasts Amanda Rivas and Josh Sarnecky as they geek out monthly with dedicated experts and special guests on exciting anime news, trending anime in TV and/or movies, and anime recommendations spanning different genres that everyone should be watching.
This month they are joined by the Podcast Director of The Pop Break, Alex Marcus. If you are a lifelong anime lover or taking the initial leap into the genre that has something for everyone, this is the podcast for you!
First, they provide a brief Anime Year in Review recap as 2023 was a busy time for new seasons of existing anime such as Demon Slayer, My Hero Academia, Jujutsu Kaisen, Dr. Stone, etc. They also discuss new anime that took the anime community by storm such as Frieren Beyond Journey’s End, Undead Murder Farce, Hell’s Paradise, Blue Lock, and more. And they touch on news in 2023 to include the announcement of Dragonball Daima, the anime remake of One Piece by WIT Studios and Netflix, and the delay of the four-episode Naruto specials.Â
They take a stroll through the anime content minds to discuss favorite series they’ve been watching recently, including The Apothecary Diaries and Suzume, with Alex also surprising Josh and Amanda with the big news that he watched all of Spy x Family and loves Anya and Bond as much as they do.Â
In their feature review section, our enthusiasts deep dive into the hit Netflix series Blue-Eyed Samurai and the latest Studio Ghibli film The Boy and The Heron.Â
