we watched too much anime for this one! come for the textureless late 2000s anime sludge, but stay for the funny and frank drama about dorky teens grappling with sexuality.

next time, we’ll be covering the entirety of the all-around type-moon manga. for yuri teatime we’ll be covering the first two novels of otherside picnic (just the first omnibus if you have that). we’ll also be covering night of forget-me-nots as part of the al|together jam.

featuring co-hosts Benn Ends (@bennends) and fen (@fenic_fox).
