This week on Worst Gen Pod we're discussing the Crew's favorite Animanga series and why. We also discuss passing judgment on others based on their favorite series. I'm sure Supernovas who are familiar with the podcast are very familiar with our favorite series but we've never taken the time to thoroughly discuss why those series are our favorites. We will explore our connection with our favorite series in our next episode. Is it the characters we relate with, does the world-building capture us, or are we inspired or comforted by the series. I expect this to be a vulnerable topic in more ways than one and I hope listeners will walk away feeling a bit more connected to our perspectives afterward. Tap In!

The Worst Gen Crew dives deep into our thoughts on “Binging Vs.

In this episode of Worst Generation Podcast, the crew sits down to discuss Shonen troupes in Anime and Manga. Tropes are tools used by storytellers to help better tell their stories in a relatable, comfortable way for the user. When it comes to Shonen, some tropes are used more than others and the quality of execution in their delivery is not always high. When it works, it works, and when it fails, well, we all know how Sensei Le Glove feels about overused lackluster Tournament Arcs. Join us as we discuss common tropes and why we like or hate them.
