Can't let go of the year until the boys say so! One last quick rundown of the Fall 2025 anime season with a side order of news and a garnish of recommendations. Spy x Family, the end of My Hero Academia, the benzine spill that is One Punch Man season 3, and more! Drop us a line before the next episode if you want us to include a Top Ten list of your favorite anime of 2025!

None of us can escape the grim specter of our times. Consolidation, Tech Bros, and the coming apocalypse to finish us all off. Not even our beloved anime can avoid all this bullshit. Can art and anime survive corporate greed, audience apathy, and cynicism? Don't worry, it isn't all doom and gloom in this episode. We just need to get the latest news out of the way before we all slip into Holiday hibernation. At least we too can participate in the time honored tradition of commercialism with some recommendations! Stay safe, see you at the New Years Eve round-up.

The air is crisp, lights are going up, and your obnoxious coworkers won't stop playing Mariah Carey. Yes, it is the most wonderful time of the year to be an anime fan who likes to spend money. Nevermind the consumerism though, we are gonna talk about the weirdness of the anime Christmas episode! From the humorous to the romantic and everything in between! What happens when a foreign religious Holiday is stripped of the last of its religious value? FRIED CHICKEN BABY! Plus we have news and recommendations. OH HO HO HO HO HO HO!
