Episode 407 - Sword Art Online: Ordinal Scale vs YuGiOh 5D's vs The World God Only Knows

This week, Shaun was messing around on MAL (like most Friday evenings) when he came across a particular theme entitled “Love Status Quo” which caused him to crash out on his daki date & he eventually decided to have Remington watch 3 episodes of a random show that's tagged with the theme to see if that's a valid way to classify a show's overarching thematic elements. Meanwhile Remington has eye drops all over his face. If you'd like to give us feedback, ask a question, or correct a mistake, send an email to [email protected]. Like our show?

This week, after spending some time looking at Dylan, Shaun was inexplicably reminded of one of his favorite shows from the Winter 2026 anime season & decided now would be an ideal time to show Remington 5 episodes of Journal with Witch.

This week, Shaun has been feeling fairly vindictive lately, and what better way to work that out of his system than by having Remington watch a show he absolutely despises with episodes 2-6 of Toriko?

This week, Shaun's been plotting since our last episode and it's time to spring his trap with a devilish choice! Will Remington blindly choose a show from the same studio (Sword Art Online: Ordinal Scale), from the same era (The World God Only Knows), or one that references a joke from last week's episode (YuGiOh: 5D's)? Meanwhile Remington really wants Dylan to regret taking a vacation. If you'd like to give us feedback, ask a question, or correct a mistake, send an email to [email protected]. Like our show?
