Nerdom and Other Nonsense Anime Podcast #130 - You Don't Deserve That Umbrella

Nerdom and Other Nonsense Anime Podcast

Leo, Kat and Bcom are back to chat about anime that aired during Week 3 of the Spring 2020 season. Minare discovers she isn’t the high-functioning drunk she always believed she was in the latest episode of Wave, Listen to Me. Episode 3 of Sing Yesterday convinces Bcom that Haru is a more multi-dimensional character than he had initially thought, and we all have a lot to say about this developing love quadrangle. The “Villainess” Katarina adds another girl to her growing harem before jumping into a time-skip that leads into the actual beginning of the otome game. We meet Clair’s mysterious sister Elena in the latest episode of Gleipnir, and she is very jealous upon finding Clair inside of Shuuichi’s suit. Yuki continues to find the courage to reach out to the people around him more often in Fruits Basket 2nd season. Leo is impressed by how the first three episodes of Princess Connect have crafted an interesting world, with hilarious characters, and have now laid out a roadmap for exploring their collective appetite for fried rice, among other delicious meals. Bcom argues that Kaguya season 1 truly should’ve ended with the ending of episode 3 of season 2, as it seems to be a natural, satisfying stopping point. Finally, the shady practices of Sylvasta Pharmaceutical are hinted at being connected with whatever made Michiru transform into a Beastman in BNA.
