About this listen

"L, did you know? Shinigami... love apples!?" - Death Note


Join thoroughly uncloseted otakus Pinpin and Yuuyuu for a journey to find a proper slice of life, some harems (both regular and UNO reversed), and the skills to say "this is a pen" in horrible American-accented Japanese.


Each weekly long-form episode includes 30 minutes of entertaining weekly updates on happenings within Japanese pop culture and media including anime, music of all genres, video games, cinema, manga, popular merchandise, and more. Episodes conclude with 30 minutes of discussion of current events, Japanese cultural hot takes, and controversial spicy opinions, wrapped in a respectful, "nihonjin"-focused attitude.


Topics can be a bit triggering and often NSFW (naughty, naughty nerds... bad otaku, bad); but the podcast is always a safe space for those looking for a cultural home, LGBTQIA+ safe space, or just a place to weeb out.
