The summer simulcast season is moving into its middle run and we’re definitely glad to get a little bit of a reprieve on the weekends for a bit to accomplish a few things – such as watching more anime. August is a tough month for a lot of folks, especially since a lot of ’em are heading back to school earlier than others while some are making their first trips to college. Schedules are about to change for a lot of people as well because of it and there’s that creepy uncertainty. I always like to be the familiar port in the storm, so keep on checking in.
This month, we’re looking at expanding our offerings with our Patreon push as well as the latest GoFundMe as we lost our major advertiser and are figuring out how to stay in business. We recently had a classic new Thirty Years Later with Chi’s Sweet Address: Ten Years Later, and are looking at what to work on next! If you’d like to write one, let us know! Don’t forget to check out our latest podcast with Fandom Post Radio Episode #56: “Kyoto Animation”!
