https://liinks.co/animegourmands

A gourmand is someone who enjoys the act of eating. An Anime Gourmand enjoys the act of watching anime, even when those anime are dog-water. Join us as we divulge in our favorite anime (Jujutsu Kaisen, Demon Slayer, Chainsaw Man, etc), become enticed, and sometimes disgusted, by new anime, and finish every season with a series of reviews!

  1. Fall 2026 Season Preview (Firefly Wedding, A Certain Dark Item, etc.)

    Show notes

    Get the pumpkin spice out, it is officially fall season for the Gourmands! It is anitrendz, MAL descriptions, and tons of tangents, just a normal podcast episode for us!

    56 min
  2. "Young Ladies Don't Play Fighting Games" Review... Best of the Season Contender?

    Show notes

    Young Ladies Don't Play Fighting Games was a welcome surprise for the crew, but does that mean it finished just as strong? Kevin and Tanner weigh in.

    57 min
  3. "Smoking Behind the Supermarket With You" End of Season Review

    Show notes

    **FIXED AUDIO** (Embarrassing)

    26 min
  4. "Love Unseen Beneath the Clear Night Sky" End of Season Review (Spoilas)

    One of the saddest anime we have seen in a while and we have to talk about it in an entertaining way.

    29 min
  5. Jaadugar: A Witch in Mongolia is One of the Best of the Season

    Show notes

    We reviewed Jaadugar and are just gushing over how amazing it was despite the fact that it breaks a lot of anime norms. If you want to check out a great show for this season, Jaadugar is an excellent choice.

    36 min
  6. Anime of the Season Contendor!? False Memory (Jiyu Guanli Ju)

    Show notes

    Wow, False Memory was such a worthwhile experience, I cannot stress enough how worth the 5 bucks it costs to watch. Not to spoil the episode tooooooo much, but at least one of us rated this show 5/5 Stars...

    53 min
  7. Fantasy... Anime Draft!?!? Football Is Back, But Anime Is Forever!

    Show notes

    We had a blast recording this one, despite the wheel basically doing everything I didn't want it to beforehand.

    1 hr 35 min
  8. Saga of Tanya the Evil Season 2 Hypecast!!! Ep 1-7

    Show notes

    If you don't like discussions regarding a certain WWII German leader, you might be wanting to sit this one out, lol.

    The Gourmands have caught up to this season of Tanya so far, and we needed to discuss it!

    32 min
  9. Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Hypecast!!! Ep. 1-7

    Show notes

    We caught up to this season's Mushoku and are ready to talk about our highlights... in this mostly slice of life focused season, lol. Oh well, we did the best we could, haha. Tanya the Evil is next.

    31 min
  10. Chainsmoker Cat (Trigger Warning), Inept Villainess, Young Ladies...Fighting Games, and Love Unseen

    Show notes

    One of the wildest Wild Card Rounds we've had, but it was certainly worth watching a season's worth of anime in one go. Long one today, but hopefully that means you guys will be entertained for longer, lol.

    2 hr 11 min
  11. "I Want To Love You Until Your Dying Day" and "I Want To Smoke Behind the Supermarket With You"

    Show notes

    APOLOGIES for the up and down audio quality, we recorded each segment on different days and one of the days recordings got corrupted somehow. Luckily, I usually record a backup version, but I guess I hadn't updated the backup's recording quality in a while... so my bad, lol.

    A lot of wanting this episode, hahaha. We go through the three episodes required to determine whether or not we will continue watching, plus we determine our wild card selections!

  14. Is Kevin Over Rom-Dram? Ramparts of Ice End of Season Review (Spoilers!)

    Show notes

    Gooooooood day! One of the final reviews from the Spring 2026, Ramparts of Ice is a very good, realistic depiction of high school drama, and the tension you feel from it. If you're a fan of the isolated episodes, please let me know!

    38 min
  15. Kevin and Angel are... Whelmed? Daemon's of the Shadow Realm End of Season (Spoilers!)

    Show notes

    Kevin and Angel have very tepid opinions regarding this season of Daemon's but how much does that affect their rating?

    18 min
  16. Witch Hat Atelier End of Season Review (Spoilers!)

    Show notes

    Kevin, Tanner, and Angel all talk about Witch Hat. However, we had to record separately from each other due to scheduling, so if this episode sounds like two different episodes pieced together.... that's cause they are hahaha. Still tons of fun, tons of great insight by the crew. Hope you like it.

    Welcome to another episode featuring the love of my life! Claudia is here to give a very spirited set of advice for people who live more on the feminine side, seeing that Kevin, Angel, and Tanner have little to no experience on that side...

    This episode was a blast to record, please let Cloud know how much she is appreciated!
