This week’s episode has fellow GoombaStomper, Ed Moreno, on the show to talk about the ups and downs of attending the largest anime convention in the US, Anime Expo. The group also shares their thoughts on sexual content growing more prominent outside of the primary medium with the recent addition of an 18+ section at AX, as well as taking the opportunity to fully tear into DARLING in the FRANXX now that the dust has settled.
