#145 - Anime Secret Santa 2023

Third Impact Anime Podcast

And if youuuuu caaaaannnn believe it, it's Christmas once again!

We're happy to present (ha) our 2023 Anime Secret Santa Special! If you're not familiar with this project, the kind folks over at the Taiiku Podcast (formerly the All Geeks Considered Podcast, formerly more-so the Reverse Thieves Podcast) organize an annual Secret Santa swap between various bloggers and podcasters in the fandom space.

The way it works is that every year, you're randomly assigned a Secret Santa, and they pick three shows for you to check out based on what you've seen via your favorite anime tracking site (MyAnimeList, Kitsu, Anime Planet, etc.). Then, you are to review at least one of those shows and either write or podcast about it. Austin, Tobias, and Bill all participated this year with their own individual picks, and here we are reviewing them all at once for a fun Christmas extravaganza!

Here's what we got from Santa-san this Christmas:

KILL ME BABY and STAR DRIVER (Tobias)
SAMURAI FLAMENCO and LOVE LIVE! SUPERSTAR!! (partial review) (Austin)
KAIJI: ULTIMATE SURVIVOR and DEVILMAN CRYBABY (Bill)

Please enjoy, and thanks again to Kory and the Taiiku Podcast for hosting this awesome annual event once again! It's not Christmas without Anime Secret Santa, so thank you from the bottom of our kokoro.
