It's finally spooky season! The air gets a bit chillier, leaves litter the front lawn, and you get the excuse to snuggle under a warm blanket while watching anime. It's the perfect season! But how does this season of anime hold up against the rest from 2025? Frankfurtter and MagicallyAverage share their thoughts on the Fall anime season so far based solely on the first episode of each anime on their watchlist! Tune in to find out if this season is just as sweet as the others, or if its frighteningly awful (Halloween puns 🎃) on the inaugural episode of Season 18!!

Ok ok ok, what the heck are "anime tourists"??? For starters, it's not referring to people who travel to Japan just for the anime culture. This term is not new to the anime community nor is the issue that stems from "anime tourism," but with the boom of content creators since the pandemic and short-form media being the most popular to consume, it's not surprise why some in the community are getting a bit overwhelmed. Frankfurtter and MagicallyAverage provide their two cents on the topic in this week's episode, covering everything from the online clash of anime content creators to dissecting the real reason why people despise anime tourists.

There's always been something special about seeing an anime in theater. For Western audiences, it was a treasure getting the chance to see your favorite series shine on the silver screen if only for a limited time. Today, it seems like anime movies are becoming more and more common, so much so that some series are using them as finales for the show! Frankfurtter and MagicallyAverage spend the episode dissecting anime films and highlighting why they are more excited for the Chainsaw Man: The Movie - Reze Arc than the remainder of the Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Arc ones. Strap in, this is gonna be a wild episode this week!

*** SPOILERS AHEAD ***

And so, our journey begins. Three films to wrap-up one of the most popular anime over the last 6 years. There have been many ups throughout the series, and certainly plenty of downs. Probably more downs than people would like to admit, but I digress. The first installment of the finale trilogy received immense hype across seas, with fans touting it as being the best anime film they have ever seen. So, has the Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle movie retained its infamy and truly blow us away? Don't worry, we won't be obtuse like IGN and simply give it a 6/10 for being "clearly incomplete." But be prepared for some harsh and, quite frankly, warranted criticism from Frankfurtter and MagicallyAverage on this special BakaBites episode.

After what felt like MONTHS of Frankfurtter teasing a surprise for MagicallyAverage, we finally get the reveal: he watched Orb... hooray... Not like MagicallyAverage has been screaming about this anime ever since it aired or anything, but yeah, cool, great, glad Frankfurtter finally watched it. But yes, today's BakaBites episode is a surprise Otaku Time Machine drop where the bakabois review Orb: On the Movements of the Earth. Has MagicallyAverage's favorite anime of the award season made an impact on Frankfurtter? Or has it completely fallen flat? And yes, those were my attempts at astrological puns o((>ω< ))o
