It’s dope that our projects were birthed for very much the same reason; to add some colour to a wildly monochromatic #Anime Fandom and Anime #Podcasting Scene.

Since time immemorial, White Voices have been fêted as important tastemakers within global popular culture; even…
within Anime, which is very much a facet of East Asian culture and our projects disrupt this notion.

They show that Black Folks should not only be respected and celebrated as Anime Tastemakers; but also that our voices carry weight, the content we make is world class and we…
are collectively (ESPECIALLY Black Americans) pushing the #fandom culture forward; driving Anime fully into the mainstream and the forefront of Western Popular Culture.

What you’ve done with #AnimeAfterDarkCH is truly incredible and I cannot wait for it to blow up even further…
and truly segue into the mainstream.

Sexy is kind of a gross word, but the most attractive Power Rangers actresses (in my opinion) are:

• Nakia Burrise (Yellow Zeo)
• Deborah Estelle Phillips (Time Force Yellow)
• Patricia Ja Lee (Space Pink) Image

I really want more folks to give #MechaAnime a shot. Mecha literally runs the gamut with regards to both genres and demographics.

Want a #Shōjo Fantasy #Isekai Mecha Show? Watch #MagicKnightRayearth. Want a Shōnen Battle Tournament Mecha Show? Peep #GundamBuildFighters or...
#MobileFighterGGundam or #AngelicLayer. You like Slam Dunk or Kuroko no Basket and want a Hot-Blooded Sports Mecha Show? #Basquash has got you covered! You like #Wrestling? #PlawresSanshirō might just be for you!

Mecha isn't all just Giant Shooty Robots, militaristic...

Folks literally rob themselves of the...

What should I watch after I finish #GGundam? 🤔🤔🤔
Notes:

• I haven’t seen any of Age or Turn A, but both interest me greatly for different reasons. Age because it arguably has some of the most…
aesthetically pleasing mechanical design in the history of the franchise. Turn A because I have heard nothing but good things about it and it seems to be well loved amongst the fandom.
