Three Dads Talking About Anime

Here we are again, time for another Prediction Game. The rules are simple: we watch 4 episodes of a show and then predict how the rest of the show will proceed from there. If we're right - we win. We don't win anything, but we ... win! If we lose - same thing, we lose. Join us for Part 1! Where Kolb and Chest take a dive into their guesses and their takes on the first 4 eps here on 3DTAA!
