HOTTEST TRASH ANIME of Spring 2026

[00:03] the only restaurant with Teal Fellowship funding that serves all the tastiest trash the anime industry can cook up. I built this place on the belief that every piece of trash is someone's treasure unless it's garbage. And in

[00:17] keeping with that philosophy, we score the merits of each dish we serve here on a proprietary rating scale that is highly intuitive and needs no explanation. And I swear to Haruhi, I will cut the next [\h__\h] who asks

[00:31] for one. If this is your first night with us, you picked a good one because Spring's menu features a beautifully balanced mix of so bad it's goodness, horny nonsense, isekai slop for him and her, and even a little something

[00:45] something for the shownen edge lords. This is the hottest trash of spring 2026, brought to you by Rosetta Stone. Have you always wanted to visit Japan? Don't do it now. Trust me. I just got

[00:58] out of there and Tokyo is a 2,000 square kilometer concrete heat sink built on a swamp. Instead, you should be using this summer to study. So, by the time you do get there, your Nihongo will be nice and Jozu. Rosetta Stone is an all-in-one

[01:12] immersive language learning app designed to make that studying as natural and intuitive as possible by emulating the way you learned this language as a child using realworld scenarios to prepare you for realworld conversations with

[01:26] bite-sized lessons that fit your realworld schedule. All the while, you'll be guided by real native Japanese voices with realtime feedback from Rosetta Stone's true accent voice recognition technology to help you hone

[01:39] your pronunciation and build your conversational confidence, which you are going to need for all the weirdass anime merch we both know you're going to buy. If you're ready to stop saying nontokanade about your Japanese learning

[02:07] journey today. As always, the first items on our menu are some light, refreshing trash, two delightfully different flavors of huge loser inexplicably dating the hottest girl in school, or rather the hottest girls,

[02:22] plural, and the second hottest one, respectively. Gals can't be kind to otaku infuses the breadandbut sane and romcom formula with distinctly flowery notes of shojo. The otaku in question bonding with his class's resident

[02:38] part-time model over a shared love of Walmart precure while her best friend who doesn't really watch that much anime kind of just thinks the both of them are adorable. I made friends with the second prettiest girl in my class, meanwhile

[02:51] follows a pair of gamer trash goblins after my own heart as they bond over her secret love of violent video games and even more violent bee movies. Not to say

[03:03] the gals don't also enjoy those from time to time.

[03:18] these things focused on the more feminine aspects of fandom while still working toward giving homeboy his three-way. And while Second Prettiest Girls, what if your best bro was a smoking hot babe wish fulfillment is a

[03:30] little more standard, the realism with which that friendship is written, and the depth of the characters involved really elevates it. I give it four baskets of our fluffiest garlic bread, while Galaku gets four more of our

[03:44] sweetest sweet rolls. So, pick your poison and get ready to dive into our poison and get ready to dive into our patented narrow slop trough. is what I would say if there was enough new slop this season to stop you from breaking

[03:56] your neck in there. Unfortunately, all we got two isekai, two villain steelies, and somehow not a single one of those things, which does at least mean the average quality is pretty high. And for my money, the cream of that slop crop

[04:09] has got to be the strongest job is apparently not a hero or a sage, but an appraiser provisional. Look, man, I'm as surprised as you are. The title alone is the kind of thing that makes you wish you could read at two times speed. And

[04:23] nothing about the visuals suggests you'd be missing anything other than a bog standard isekai by watching it that way. Not that I ever would, no matter how bog standard the isekai gets. I just I don't roll that way, but I understand some

[04:37] people do. But that's because what you can't see without actually sitting down to watch the show is how [\h__\h] funny it is.

[05:01] the hilarious sound design and storyboards, and even some of the kooky characters, more obvious charm points, but the impeccable comedic rhythm that runs through each episode from beginning to end is what really elevates the

[05:14] entire work. getting huge laughs out of the dumbest running gags. From the elf whose shirt won't stay buttoned up to the proud Wolfman warrior who won't admit he craves chin scratchies to the merchant who can literally smell the

[05:29] merchant who can literally smell the money on you and it turns him on. On that note, as lowbudget as the default art style can look, the show actually can deliver some pretty solid fan service when it wants to. Plus, it

[05:42] really gets some mileage out of Protag seducing older women skill that he's not sure why he has. And frankly, it scares him a little, as do a lot of the random little things that the gods have decided to bless him with without asking him

[05:56] first. Also worth noting, there is a lot more to that elf than just the things that keep popping out of her shirt, such as a deep-seated neurosis about her inability to make friends, which contrasts beautifully with her totally

[06:09] unearned level of arrogance. Just fantastic character work there and across the board in the whole show. It is a very funny cast. On paper's strongest job is by the numbers validation slop, but it's more than the

[06:23] sum of those parts. Unfortunately, my rib ridiculous reincarnation turned out to be a little bit less. The concept of a typical isekai loser picking the least typical isekai premises he can imagine to skip the 10,000yearlong weight lines

[06:39] to be reborn as a hero or demon king or other popular options. Is comic gold ripe with potential for brilliant parody? Be he reborn as a rib, a vegetable, the voice in the hero's head that tells him he's leveled up, or the

[06:54] right door to the demon king's throne room. And the choice to depict each world with its own unique animation style, from traditional to claymation to style, from traditional to claymation to paper puppetry is straight up inspired.

[07:07] If you are an animation nerd of any kind, this show is required viewing.

[07:37] ideas end up being delivered by the protagonist basically just showing the goddess his isekai vacation slides. Look, I I'm sure the format of narration with color commentary worked perfectly well when this thing was a web novel.

[07:51] The vaguely psychotic goddess is certainly an entertaining enough character to carry those interactions, but in a more active present tense medium like animation. I really want to see that crazy funny stuff happening

[08:05] instead of just being told that it happened after the fact. Don't get me wrong, it still had me laughing. And I do still think it's required viewing for animation nerds. And for isekai nerds, it delivers pitch perfect parodies of

[08:18] lonely slop, validation slop, and number slop alike. It's just hard to shake the feeling it could be doing a little better. The heroine of Always a Cat should be grateful that she'll never feel that way about her new fiance. Mimi

[08:32] is the former ays to a magic martial arts dynasty who finds herself in sudden need of a husband after her parents finally pop out a little brother with greater legal claim to their dojo/ dukedom. So, she moves in with her best

[08:47] friend at a neighboring kingdom's obligatory rich kid high school, just in time to accidentally be mistaken for that friend by her fiance, the crown prince when it's time for his obligatory, "She's been framed for

[09:01] bullying by some drill-haired oama." And for some reason, I believe her scene. However, it turns out he was only pretending to believe Miss Drill Hair to give his fianceé an excuse to break up with him and marry his brother who

[09:15] actually loves her and simultaneously killing a second bird with that same stone, enacting an elaborate inciting incident of a villainess anime themed sting operation on Oo Jo sama and her criminal father, which Mimi ends up

[09:31] getting caught up in, but she can kick all their asses, so it's fine.

[09:48] watching goons get beat up fetish. So that's her husband hunting problem solved, too. The bird to stone ratio in this anime is seriously impressive. Not quite impressive enough for the number slop bucket, but thankfully its

[10:02] massively charming cast of characters do make for some primo lonely slop. And it finds itself in good company in that bucket next to observation log of my fiance who calls herself a villainess. A clever little twist on the reborn in an

[10:18] otoé game genre that places us, as the title suggests, in the fancy leather shoes of the prince to whom the villainess is betrothed rather than the woman herself. Seeing from the perspective of a fantasy world

[10:31] inhabitant just how crazy someone would look if they suddenly came at you when you don't even know what a video game is. Not that Ceil particularly minds being a rich genius and all, there is very little in this world that can

[10:46] surprise or challenge him. So Bertia with her odd ambitions of achieving worldclass villain and even odd ability to predict the future with frightening accuracy proves an entertaining distraction that swiftly evolves into

[11:01] full-blown obsession. But there's a problem there. While she does love him too, it's very much in a if you love them, let them go sort of way. Hence why she's so eager to play the perfect villainess and tee him up for his happy

[11:15] ending with his destined maiden. The reason why she's so eager does form the backbone of an overarching mystery that does kind of set the show apart from the rest of the genre pack. Although it does still end up feeling like a Bakarina

[11:30] clone minus the bisexual horm which obviously is a huge downgrade. However, the blend of comedy and drama and the eccentricity of the supporting cast are close enough to Bakarina that I'm not really complaining. It's a good ass

[11:45] season for fantasy girl trash. And even though we are leaving the slop trough now, we're not quite done with it because the warrior princess and barbaric king dropped straight up schlong in episode 1. Like literally

[12:00] straight up. Well, it it does seem to curve a little bit to the side, but close enough that Schlong comes attached to the titular king, who spends a good amount of time with his shirt off, too, as does the titular princess, to be

[12:14] fair, along with many other female members of the cast, sometimes involving members of the cast, sometimes involving tentacles. Uh, the original manga did run in a shownen magazine, so I may have slightly oversold its girl trashiness,

[12:29] but the story is clearly playing with noble savage tropes straight out of a pulp bodis ripper romance. So, it's not hard to see how it earned a sizable hard to see how it earned a sizable female fan base as well.

[12:51] it has to play them straight, though. And Saraphina, the warrior princess, quickly finds that any fears she may have had of her bodice being ripped after the king claimed her as a prize from the battlefield to be greatly

[13:04] exaggerated and maybe even a little racist. Veyor may have taken her as a prisoner of war, but he's too much of a gentleman to force her to marry him. And while his culture may be a little looser with what it lets uh hang out there, in

[13:20] a lot of ways she finds their social structure and views on gender roles to be liberating, at least for a woman who's not so interested in tea parties, political marriages, and all that other stuff from those last two anime. Don't

[13:33] get me wrong, this show is far from woke, and as meaty as its man can be, the primary target audience is still clearly Spike Spiegel type dudes. I love the kind of woman that can kick my ass. But it does have a certain social

[13:47] awareness about it that serves to both enrich its worldb buildinging and create a romantic storyline that folk from all genders and orientations can take some not too guilty pleasure in. Combine that with some seriously kick-ass battle

[14:03] scenes, and you've got a show that easily earns three toasty dumpsters full of furlined bikinis and dragon skininned banana hammocks. If kick-ass battles are all you want though, then buddy, you are in luck because Petals of Reincarnation

[14:19] is the edgiest JoJo's Bizarre Adventure like this side of the big order. Does it have a coherent plot? Not as such. But what it does have is loads of convoluted

[14:31] lore, a kick-ass power system, and literally Hitler, make literally Irwin Schroinger's persona, tremble with fear by using PP

[14:47] pot's Walmart purple haze powers to eliminate every possible parallel timeline where Schrodener doesn't die, thus rendering his OP stand power useless. which is just the prelude to the real fight against teleporting waifu

[15:03] Albert Einstein and Sir Isaac Newton, the appleheaded pervert, at the end of which we find out that Hitler and Pole Pot were actually super chill guys all Pot were actually super chill guys all along. Uh, I should probably clarify.

[15:17] Literally Hitler isn't literally Hitler, but rather an ambiguously gendered reincarnation who inherited his talent for building surveillance states in the form of a swastika kek genkai that lets them share their vision with anyone also

[15:32] wearing a swastika. Except that Germany is a pretty big market for anime these days. So instead of a swastika, it's this thing. But Vadolfmler is ultimately just one of many such returners who've all regained the powers and sometimes

[15:49] personalities of their past lives by slitting their throats with magic knives and now must fight each other over whether they should be fighting each other for fun or fighting each other for world peace. And the main guy out of

[16:02] those is a reincarnation of a thief guy with the power to steal powers who isn't really all that interesting. and neither is that power. So yeah, mainly you watch this for all the kooky edgelord [\h__\h] happening around him, which thankfully

[16:18] there is quite a lot of. At least three times an episode, you are going to be saying, "Wait, what the fuck?" And I mean that as the highest compliment. I give it four flaming dumpsters of blood and razor blades. But now it's time to

[16:31] and razor blades. But now it's time to move on from the edgy anime to the etchy anime, of which we've got a whole buffet for your pleasure. this spring if you're watching this on Patreon. Otherwise, a lot of them had to be cut from the you I

[16:45] mean the we're in a restaurant. Before we can dive into that though, I got to tell you what won't be on the menu. Yo yoa sensei. Now, don't get me wrong, the show does have an immensely charming art style. The wide variety of patterns and

[17:01] styles very comfortably place its panty shots in B tier. And its nipples are there. There are nipples in this anime, but that's pretty much all it's got going for it. I have never felt this bored staring at tits this huge. The

[17:16] problem mainly lies with the titular tit bearer herself, Hiori Hiwamura aka bearer herself, Hiori Hiwamura aka Kaakoa sensei, a shy, clumsy, softspoken young teacher with clothes made of tissue paper whose class all thinks

[17:29] tissue paper whose class all thinks she's terrifying because um she's terrifying because um I guess when she gets all muttery and quiet and stuff, she kind of could maybe seem like the ghost out of the ring or

[17:44] the grudge or whatever to someone who's never actually seen those movies and also has severe brain damage, which to be fair, if all these characters are often offscreen when there aren't massive titties around to catch them, I

[17:58] suppose could explain it. Me though, I'm just sitting here scratching my thoroughly untraumatized head through all these jokes about like she mumbled something, so half the class IS LIKE, "OH NO, SHE'S CURSING US." or someone's

[18:12] "OH NO, SHE'S CURSING US." or someone's really scared of her for um stuttering and then she trips and uh hits protag boobs first and all her clothes explode. The only dread I feel coming from the

[18:24] implication that there might actually be a real human being out there who needs 20 seconds of verbal exposition to figure out how the teacher ended up with a bloody finger while holding a plushy with popped stitches. Gosh, I wonder

[18:38] what could have happened there. some kind of dark ritual. It's a mystery. The closest thing the show has to a coherent setup and punchline is the audience insert cardboard cutouts. Ara Ona sama taking a shine to Sensei for being even

[18:54] more baby than her baby brother, which is funny for like 4 seconds or so, but then the rest of the characters are just mea but a girl or a violent super strong sundere. How original, >> who's also a gau.

[19:09] >> Daring today, aren't we? >> Look, I built this restaurant with my bare hands by stabbing the hobo who used to live in this alley to death so that I could serve a higher class of trash. And if you want garbage like this, I'm sure

[19:23] Slopplebees. And I know the counterargument to all this is just shut up and enjoy the anime titty, man. But there are hundreds of websites out there where I could also be doing that plus enjoying some other bits with better

[19:38] jokes and characters. Even one such website is oceanvil.com where you'll find every simalcast too cultured for more cowardly streaming sites like the latest season of I want you to show me your panties with a

[19:54] disgusted face. Yes, that's a real anime. And so is do you like big girls? a Harum series in which the Harum is an entire college volleyball team that the short stack protag ends up dorm managing for as a favor to his sister. And yes, I

[20:11] know what you're wondering. He does break rule D by episode 5. But you can hear more about that and a few of Ocean Veil's other series in the Patreon exclusive cut of this menu. Now, occasionally Ocean Veil will

[20:26] menu. Now, occasionally Ocean Veil will also score less horny fair like Ichioma Manitsu Garashi. Though, please do note less horny is very much a relative term here. One of the cute girls who does cute manga cafe things in this thing is

[20:39] a live streamer who's extremely sensitive to cold, but only on the top half of her body. and the rich mom of the rich girl whose gimmick is how rich she Is has a massive collection of erotic manga, which by an astounding

[20:52] coincidence is also the type of manga that this particular anime was based on. Though, if you find the adaptation to be erotic, your eyesight is probably worse than mine. The show's approach to panty shots is very much quantity over

[21:07] quality, dipping below even the low-budget Dtier etchy granny panty zone into straight up diaper territory at points. And it's also not the best MOA comedy out there. It's not the worst. The characters do have some fun gimmick

[21:22] tropes and the setting of a manga cafe that's also a fancy girl school dorm room is creative. At least I like the jokes about how rich the rich girl and her rich mom are and how they just do like absurd things with all their money

[21:37] because they're completely disconnected from reality. That's funny. But for the most part, the tropes are kind of all there is to any of the characters and they wear thin real fast, unlike those granny panties which wear disturbingly

[21:52] thick. So much so I'm giving it a whole dumpster of them. You'll also unfortunately find more than a few of those in Classroom of a Black Cat and a Witch. And while they do at least stay above the Diaper Line, it is still very

[22:05] much a mediocre mid-budget etchy comedy. Yet, I can't help loving it for the simple reason that it feels like a mediocre mid-budget etchy comedy from when I was but a lad. A time when the girls had pink twin tales, the boys had

[22:20] actual personalities, the magic systems were made up in a drunken weekend bender, and you could scarcely tell the jokes from the author's barely disguised fetishes. Is Yoske Kanea actually into girls tongue-kissing cats on the ass

[22:34] because frog prints type magic works better as a suppository? Probably not, since we never actually see her do it on screen. But you can never be sure. Which means you can also never be sure when the one girl has thighs that could pop

[22:48] girl who gets real big gets real big people or gets her torso stuck in a hole in the wall. Uh-oh. Step bro style. Probably he thought it was funny and it gave him a boner. But since you can

[23:02] never know for sure, you have no choice but to simply focus on the funny. let the horny wash over you as it should and just enjoy the thing without tweeting about it. It was a simpler time, a better time. But that's only part of why

[23:16] I'm giving it a panty pass because it also delivers those goods like the good old days with simple Pratt falls for the sole benefit of the camera that don't have to bend the laws of physics just to get a dude between two boobs every

[23:30] single time someone falls over. In this show, a girl can simply fall on her face after jumping off the roof on a broom in an attempt to learn flying magic, flash her ass to the sky, and proceed from there into classic man fall down, get

[23:43] hurt comedy instead of falling into yet another softcore groping sash. And what's more, in a stroke of legitimate writing genius, Speak of Virgo's ability to survive these gag manga levels of physical trauma is eventually revealed

[23:58] to be her special unique chosen one magic power she didn't even know she magic power she didn't even know she had.

[24:25] talking cat's anus once per day in order to turn him back into her hot teacher experiencing that and also his personality. So, you know, if you think Koko suffered to learn magic, think again. Personality is something this

[24:39] show has in abundance, by the way, spread across a fairly large cast of characters. And that's the real appeal of Classroom of a Black Cat and a Witch. It's a big zany ensemble comedy where basically everyone is certifiably insane

[24:53] and most of them also want to each other. Welcome back, Ronma Half is what I'd say if Ronma wasn't already back. But it's nice to have more anime that also clearly understand what made the forebears of Etchy so entertaining

[25:09] titty, give us money, please. I'm giving this one four flaming dumpsters of granny panties. But if comfort food were all you wanted, you'd be eating at slopplebees right now. You come to Sha Garbage for our gourmet delicacies. And

[25:25] Conan the Gourmet herself wouldn't turn up that cute little nose at Mistress Cananan is devilishly easy. You can probably see some of the reasons for this recommendation already. In fact, there are two massively good reasons

[25:40] staring you in the face right now. But behind those lurks a heart that's just as huge. Sure, Kiyoki Kun, the boy that Kanan accidentally ends up dating after unsuccessfully trying to eat his deliciousl lookinging soul, has some

[25:55] very relatable thoughts that he's thoroughly unashamed of sharing with his thoroughly unashamed of sharing with his girlfriend.

[26:11] But that soul only looks so delicious because it's also so pure. Sure, Kyogi wants to smell it. He wants to drown in it. He wants to do a lot of things with it. His answer to are you horny is always yes and. But more than anything,

[26:26] he wants to love his new girlfriend with everything he has. hold her hand, cuddle on the ferris wheel, and bask in how gosh darn adorable she is. Which when you combine that design and this animation quality with Oi Koga doing her

[26:42] animation quality with Oi Koga doing her very best, Bakaguya is very adorable very best, Bakaguya is very adorable indeed.

[26:54] made Ammy, who embodies the spirit of the late Shinszo Abbe by following the kids around and trying to make them [\h__\h] when she's not busy [\h__\h] their teacher. To Jean, the airheaded saint who will do literally anything for food

[27:08] to Kyogi's earnest childhood friend Nadeshko. She is far from the only adorable one here. Heck, Kyogi is pretty darn cute in his own right. We're talking nothing less than wallto-wall MOA in this show, buoied immensely by

[27:23] the goofy, expressive animation style, but it's underpinned as well by some sharpwitted writing that knows both how to play the hits just the way you want to hear them and how to put a fresh spin on the ster material of the etchy comedy

[27:38] genre. Like, sure, Kanan does eventually fall into a love triangle with that childhood friend, but not in the way you're thinking.

[28:08] Cananan a truly rarified treat. An unapologetic sex comedy whose earnestness toward love and lust alike makes it feel undeniably wholesome. An impossible paradox some might scoff. But any man of culture who's enjoyed Nagurro

[28:25] any man of culture who's enjoyed Nagurro son knows how well those two contrasting flavors can complement each other. I have no choice but to award this exquisite dish and the anime with her name on it five golden dumpsters full of

[28:39] those golden week bikinis. Speaking of, I should probably mentioned the klutsy class monitor and girl with the short skirt featured an actual golden week bikini recently on a different Nadeshko. Funny enough, sadly the rest of the show

[28:53] just ain't quite trashy enough for this joint. But for Beach episode connoisseurs, that one is worth seeking out as a little treat. On that note though, before you go, you ought to be a little bad and treat yourself to some

[29:06] little bad and treat yourself to some dessert. Or a lot bad. Perhaps even that finest of trashy delights. Something so bad it's good. Well, we've got not one but two such treats in store for you tonight. The best mystery fiction has a

[29:21] firm rooting in logic, creating a compact with its audience that they will have a fair shot at cracking the case before the characters even do, if only they can pay close enough attention and use their brains effectively. Killed

[29:34] use their brains effectively. Killed Again, Mr. Detective is absolutely not Again, Mr. Detective is absolutely not one of those.

[30:29] deliberate camp in with genuine so bad it's goodness? I don't know. I'm a chef, not a philosopher. All I know is it tastes about the same. And ain't no one watching this mystery anime for the satisfaction of a good mystery. Not that

[30:41] you should ever expect tight, logical writing from a show whose main character can come back from the dead. But like, even if you accept that and try to run with the story's internal logic, the key to solving the first case ends up being

[30:55] some unrelated YouTuber who sent his cat to roam around the cruise ship with a GoPro collar on, and it just happened to record the entire murder. Plus the conversation leading up to it that implicated Japan's fifth largest candy

[31:08] company in the world's least costefficient pot smuggling operation.

[31:33] Machavevelian schemes or genius detective work. You watch it to find out how much more insane the next case can possibly be than the last one and to see what kind of outfit or lack thereof the girls will be wearing next. In

[31:47] particular, Lilia Sakuya's waifu Watson, who's been praised by fans the internet over as literally the only thing I'm still watching this garbage for. I give it three giant clown balloons full of weed that are on fire because an entire

[32:03] airplane with the main character's dad on it crashed onto the cruise ship that they're on in the middle of the ocean. On the subject of cute girls and ridiculous nonsense, though, it's not every day that the anime world welcomes

[32:16] every day that the anime world welcomes in a new IP from Niyasu Agamatsu, the creator and composer of Symphfoggeear. So naturally, Ghost Concert Missing Songs had many fans hyped for it from the jump. But it was a different aspect

[32:30] of the show's pedigree that made me excited. Masato Jinbo, a talented enough director when he's working with other people's material like Hea Camp and the quintessential Quintuplets movie. But when you let him pen his own

[32:45] screenplays, he gives you crap like Chaos Child, The Legend of Mana anime, and Super H arrows. But this ain't just any old butchered adaptation we're talking about here. It's the original anime side of a full-blown multimedia

[33:02] project. And the last time he wrote and directed one of those, we got Shiron directed one of those, we got Shiron Nekco Project Zero Chronicle, the most deviant art anime of all time. Suffice to say, I was beyond hyped to see what

[33:16] he'd cook up working on something as out there as a battle musical. and Ghost Concert did not disappoint with how disappointing it ended up being. The musical numbers are still a matu if not his best work, so they are plenty

[33:31] listenable. But in the context of the show, they're the primary means by which protagonia, who can channel the ghosts of historical figures, Shaman King style, to use their powers in battle, recruits new spirits

[33:45] to her spirit squad. So, like imagine if in Pokémon instead of busting out the combination canned animation catchphrase when it's time to collect the monster of the week, Ash started singing extensive rock opera duets with primeape about his

[34:01] bottled up anger and how nice the hat looks on him and stuff like that. Only instead of a Primeape, it's guys like Nicola Tesla. And it happens pretty much every episode. Not only that, but the music videos that go with those numbers

[34:17] depict fights and other scenes that often aren't actually part of the story, but sometimes they are, which gets extra confusing because the show's ratio of Moa slice of life [\h__\h] to action is like 3:1, which leaves approximately 2

[34:32] and 1/2 total minutes per episode to establish what all the other characters can do with their powers, why they're doing what they do, why they're fighting this week's evil ghost of the week, and what's going on with the overarching war

[34:44] for territory in the spirit world before the singing starts and we don't even know what's real or not anymore. And if you think that's confusing, all of this stuff about exorcists and ghosts fighting over potential energy sources

[34:56] in the top secret frontier world between life and death is just a subplot to the main story about rebelling against the corporate overlords of a cyberpunk dystopia who've made all nonienerated music so illegal that if the microchip

[35:12] in your neck catches you humming in the shower, a squad of drones will burst into your bathroom and murder you in your own home. But it gets even better than that because the whole thing's written like it was supposed to be 25

[35:25] episodes long, but then when they found out they were only getting 12, they just threw out half the scripts completely at random. So, you'll tune into the new episode and all of a sudden Siri has got a new spirit on the squad that you've

[35:38] never even heard of before. And one of the major organizations that the entire plot revolves around is just completely [\h__\h] gone. It's like a train wrecked a dumpster fire. I give it 4 and 1/2 Ice Cubes, Amazon Primes, HG Wells's War of

[35:54] the Worlds is. That is all the trash we've got for you tonight, though. So, it's time for you to find your way home, which you will unfortunately have to do on your own from now on. Turns out that returning abductee I mean concierge

[36:08] service users after we've already extracted payment from them is just a huge profit sync unless you're going to charge a ransom for the return. So we're going to be axing that service to maximize our shareholders ROI. Lucky for
