I started watching episode one and feel the same way. I usually don’t watch the same anime as Nick or Dan or even agree with them on most, but I just love them as a pod so much lol
Every time Nick mentions the upcoming fisticuffs, all I see in my head is Danny punching Nick in the ear to Nick's screams of "YOU PUNCHED ME IN THE FUCKING EAR, DANNY" and that scene will live in my head rent free forever
Thing is, Danny is completely correct. He KNOWS that no one in that high school should be tolerating Jiji because HE wasn't tolerated and was bullied in high school.
Thanks for posting this really makes my day brighter. My dog is sick and it’s been hard but this and both of your channels really helps🎉keep doing what you’re doing. You guys are amazing
I started OA with The Spaghetti Episode, can't believe it's been a full year of these twinks being the best addition to my week. Merry Christmas, y'all ❤
Danny's bit - I'm Pro Segregation Full Stop & Nick's lack of clapping 👏 Shows that they are falling apart. Until we get a drunk/drugged Pod 😂 We need the Naruto Musical for the Christmas Special🎄
Dan during the hello fresh ad just made me see him as like the hype man who standing there with his arms crossed straight face like yeah mothafucka what he said
Danny isn't Jiji. No one is Jiji. I am overactive and I can be annoying at times as I was told by people around me but Jiji is that 24/7. No one is THAT extra.
Nick, react to Apothecary Diaries. Let it be the show that gets you a larger, probably more feminine audience. You never know unless you try 🤷🏻♀️ Together, you and Danny can become an unstoppable force for female anime fans.
I think Nick can pick up what Danny can’t/doesn’t want to do. For example, Danny hates ancient China politics (ie. Apothecary Diaries, Heaven Officials Blessing, Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation, etc.) but likes more sarcastic stuff like Bungo Stray Dogs and Hazbin Hotel
I like how at the very least Paru had almost every single character call out Legoshi for being a weird vigilante hermit. Almost everyone roasted him for being an edgelord.
I really appreciated the conversation around Beastars. A lot of the commentary on that show hits for me. Especially the parts about being a minority and intentionally(or even subconsciously) shrinking yourself and making yourself seem calm and presentable in public. I'm a black man and it's really refreshing and nice to hear difficult, nuanced, and mature conversations like this in an anime space. ❤
If you guys watch Fate/Strange Fake my life is yours. Definitely check out episode zero that released two years ago, since the rest of the anime will begin releasing on New Years!
No cap in the episode he unlocked that and off ball movement, when bull said that I was like ummm what were you doing before were you standing still when you passed the ball😂
In regards to the AI discussion, the worst part is that everyone's content on youtube is **already** in an AI's databanks. Google just unveiled their Veo2, their video ""generator"" (read regurgitator), and the first and most obvious question is 'where did all their data come from?' To which the first and most obvious answer is 'they fed it every single youtube video.' So yeah, your videos may not be in third-party AI programs if you didn't check the box, but they are still *absolutely* being used for AI with or without your permission.
"None of this is even close to funny" Is how I would describe almost every bit of comedy relief in Dragon Ball. Not a SINGLE moment in the show that was deliberately written to be comedic was actually entertaining, with the exception of the driving school episode. That shit was hilarious
Honestly, Beastars is my vote for manga that has introduced the most plot points that go nowhere. Heres a short list of plot points that either went nowhere or were resolved like shit: Louis and Legoshi being hella gay for each other. They both end up with women. Its especially egregious for Louis cuz....bro is gay AF. Legoshi being taught to essentially fight using a stand by that bunny girl Legoshi "fighting his way through" the back alley market gangs to get to Melon Melon's dad doing anything of significance The problem of carnivores eating meat. The fish just conveniently say "we're cool with being eaten by you all and dying" What the hell the point was of the big ancient whale speaking to Yafya The point of Jack being in those classes about being genetically superior Louis and Legoshi becoming the next Beastars, never happens. The entire point of the position of Beastar and why it's important at all What the hell was even the point of Pina just being weird and gay about Riz and kind of Bill
i find it especially hilarious because i keep on imagining 'in Beastars' being said the way people online say 'in Minecraft' after saying something illegal 😂
I feel like you are seeing the legoshi situation from, a human perspective when theirs a whole bunch of animal brain here to consider. Also haru is very in danger of being eaten
As the avatar, keeper of balance amongst the 4 nations and the last Airbender, Aang had the obligation to restore the air nomads, the best way for him to do that would be to reproduce with as many non-bending women as possible so that they'd be a little less likely to pass on their nation's bending and be more likely to become Airbenders
The only thing I'll say about the Sakura/Sasuke point Nick has is that he keeps saying "Rock Lee DESERVES Sakura" but Sakura's choice, however aggrevating it is to people, should still be her own and not based on who DESERVES her. She's not a prize.
I want a square body. Always admired them. Wondering if we could get a “what to look for” when purchasing one. Unfortunately don’t have the money to buy a worked on one by you guys 😢
I genuinely believe Nick could create a channel that is sole made to react to the things Danny doesn’t and it would succeed. Then they collab for shows they both want to watch
I'm cool with a stream where nick and Danny just looks at the comments about bad takes, awards for best anime, worse anime, best animation, ect on TH-cam and live pleaseeee 🙏🏾🙏🏾💯
Fate/Strange the only thing you need to know I believe it takes place after Fate/Stay UBW. And is a fake grail war going on in America. So knowing vaguely what the Grail war will prob make it a better experience but prob not required. I dont think they did a good job explaining how the main grail got corrupted either that might be the only part that may be important.
My favorite anime with a long name is either I Couldn't Become a Hero So I Reluctantly Decided to Get a Job, or My Mental Choices are Completely Interfering with My School Romantic Comedy
7:21 Yuri on ice 5 cm per second sounds a little personal in my opinion but you can also watch anime Christmas specials Chrome shows those are also good
16:22 They're carnivores, thats why they have to eat so much bambo, they dont get enough energy eating a normal amount of it because they arent made to eat it
Imma be real. i think OA releases have become the best part of my week since i started listening like, 5 months ago.
Literally watched it for the first time last week. Watched the most recent two and have eagerly awaited this weeks episode. Same boat
I started watching episode one and feel the same way. I usually don’t watch the same anime as Nick or Dan or even agree with them on most, but I just love them as a pod so much lol
Legit.. i have relistened to probably half the episodes..
@@savoff477stg I have seen every episode multiple times 😅😅 feel like a fanboy
No shame dude, I’ve been here since day one and never missed an episode
Every time Nick mentions the upcoming fisticuffs, all I see in my head is Danny punching Nick in the ear to Nick's screams of "YOU PUNCHED ME IN THE FUCKING EAR, DANNY" and that scene will live in my head rent free forever
lol
We all know they're just gonna start kissing each other after the first punch
Danny: i hate you jiji
JIJI: But I'm you 😮
Danny: i know 😡
I'm you but taller
Thing is, Danny is completely correct. He KNOWS that no one in that high school should be tolerating Jiji because HE wasn't tolerated and was bullied in high school.
1:19:53 At this point I'm convinced that one anonymous OA fic writer is just Nick and/or Danny
I’m prepared to write as well
Thanks for posting this really makes my day brighter. My dog is sick and it’s been hard but this and both of your channels really helps🎉keep doing what you’re doing. You guys are amazing
I would immediately like to say just how on board I am for a drunk podcast! 😂
They've had one already. It was so fun
I started OA with The Spaghetti Episode, can't believe it's been a full year of these twinks being the best addition to my week. Merry Christmas, y'all ❤
Did they just not talk about Winter 2025, like at all with this title..? That's hilarious if so lol 10/10
I think it’s beautiful
They did talk about it a bit at the end during best boi segment
Danny's bit - I'm Pro Segregation Full Stop & Nick's lack of clapping 👏 Shows that they are falling apart. Until we get a drunk/drugged Pod 😂
We need the Naruto Musical for the Christmas Special🎄
That type of pod would be so hype/crazy 🎉
That bit will haunt Danny 🤣
I need that Naruto Musical 😌
Same! Regardless of the piss poor dragon ball takes 😂
10:11
Personally, I would love for this to become the standard camera angle for the pod, it feels more cozy (Danny's neck might not agree😂)
The story of Beastars begins to make sense when you realize the mangaka is the child of itagaki who is the author of Baki
True, but she is completely sane compared to her father
I love always hearing Danny’s amazing music taste. The Smashing Pumpkins thing was amazing
Why has this become such a genuinely good niche podcast love it lol
Jiji is Danny he’s doing bits
1:19:58 the saga of Dorothy being away continues.
Dan during the hello fresh ad just made me see him as like the hype man who standing there with his arms crossed straight face like yeah mothafucka what he said
Sponsor time camera angle looked strangely cute
Danny hates Jiji because he is Jiji
Danny isn't Jiji. No one is Jiji. I am overactive and I can be annoying at times as I was told by people around me but Jiji is that 24/7. No one is THAT extra.
@@jakubgodyn7413 Why are you telling me this
@@notimportant0000 Because you're argument does not make sense. Jiji is just annoying. You don't need more reasons to hate him.
Danny wishes he was Jiji 😂
@@micah459 I mean in the Dandadan universe? Yes. It is a universe where being an annoying idiot gets you populairty
My favorite (and only) podcast i listen to♡ love the cold opens xD
16:20 Pandas are carnivores too lazy to hunt so they went vegetarian, but will eat corpses and/or bugs when they stumble upon them.
Love LOOOOOVE how much vitriol Nick is feeling for Beastars
Thanks for mentioning Dr stone. It's so underrated. 😔
Yes! I enjoyed it a lot
Its mid.
@@pilafprice2372 so is your taste in anime babe ❤️
@@pilafprice2372shush
Lowkey, Okarun and Senku made me figure out my type…
Nick on edibles would be classic. 😂
Oh! I’m actually on timeish!

HEY
I HOPE YALL READ THIS
I LOVE YOU BOTH, YOURE DOING AMAZING AND I HOPE THIS LIFE BRINGS YOU BOTH HAPPINESS
If I remember right Danny never said Legoshi is part lizard BUT he did say "what is he a Direwolf?" and Im like "hes close" lmao.
Idea for the Christmas special: who can give the most passive aggressive gift
2:09:46 getting a pro-zutara deep-dive on this podcast wasn’t on my 2024 bingo card but holy shit i’ll take it 😭🙏
The Myth busters tested the elephant being scared of mice tho and they were infact spooked
You guys make shows people have never seen sound good and interesting because I've never watched beastars but now I wanna watch it now
No cap in the episode he unlocked that and off ball movement, when bull said that I was like ummm what were you doing before were you standing still when you passed the ball😂
Congrats on the sponor!
Ranking Bleach characters on who'd be the best to go camping with

57:45 Did Nick come up with these Anime IRL ideas while Dorothy was away? It seems unhinged even for him
the vids bin up for 14 minutes how are you an hour in
@ watched it live, been waiting to comment
Drunk Pod - always fun!
Sometimes a random look from Danny really just caters to me... For some reasons Xmas sweater Dan is weirdly cute
Re zero being in the thumb nail and them not even mentioning re zero is the epitome of heart break I can only get from nick and Danny
Watched the whole video for that and they didn't even talk about it for a sec
Lot of load bearing, "IN BEASTARS" this episode 😂
i find it especially hilarious because i keep on imagining 'in Beastars' being said the way people online say 'in Minecraft' after saying something illegal 😂
Jiji is something else, I loved him 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
1:20:02 reminder to become a patron yall 😭
Kaguya sama the first kiss that never ends movie is a Christmas movie
Ive been wondering where's nicks dandadan reactions? I was looking foward to ep 7 reaction
I feel like you are seeing the legoshi situation from, a human perspective when theirs a whole bunch of animal brain here to consider. Also haru is very in danger of being eaten

The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya is an anime Christmas movie as well
Dan Dadan is romcom mainly, with a little of horror and action as spice, so basically the actions are the fillers, the end goal is Okarun's balls
For the Christmas stream, do Xmas Scooby-Doo movies
Weed cookies, monster, menthol cigs, and eggnog is a lethal combination
I hope they know that Link Click comes out December 27th
The only thing I'll say about the Sakura/Sasuke point Nick has is that he keeps saying "Rock Lee DESERVES Sakura" but Sakura's choice, however aggrevating it is to people, should still be her own and not based on who DESERVES her. She's not a prize.
Awesome sweaters
Danny's opinion on Avatar at the end is my exact opinion💜
14:00 add subway surfers gameplay in the middle of the screen while you do it
Nick vs Danny boxing. Loser must get either a Bluelock or Daima tattoo!
I want a square body. Always admired them. Wondering if we could get a “what to look for” when purchasing one. Unfortunately don’t have the money to buy a worked on one by you guys 😢
1:21:05 lol ntr is netorare, which just means cuckong XD
EVIL Danny be like: “I am not pro-segregation. Full stop. Never. Not only in Beastars.”
It’s FRIDAY night SmackDown… God get it together Dan
LOOK BACK anime of the year
Wait isn’t fire force season dropping this winter as well??
I genuinely believe Nick could create a channel that is sole made to react to the things Danny doesn’t and it would succeed. Then they collab for shows they both want to watch
When will this go up on YT Music app
Chopper is Santa in the 2023 gift collection card set 8:24
There's the Christmas Epi of SAO. That went well. SAO abridge version is amazing.
I'm cool with a stream where nick and Danny just looks at the comments about bad takes, awards for best anime, worse anime, best animation, ect on TH-cam and live pleaseeee 🙏🏾🙏🏾💯
You should put chapters for the ads
47:42 there is going to be 13 episodes.
I really want them to watch AoAshi and compare it to blue lock
17:12 I was working and I came back to my truck to hear, I’m pro segragation 😭
Bro I got so startled when Danny said Gianna ‘cause that’s my name 😀
2:07:03 Revy and Rock from Black Lagoon (idk if it’s actually cannon or not)
Subtle trolling by the boys. Nick wearing a Kiki's shirt and Danny wearing an Itachi shirt.
Fate/Strange the only thing you need to know I believe it takes place after Fate/Stay UBW. And is a fake grail war going on in America. So knowing vaguely what the Grail war will prob make it a better experience but prob not required.
I dont think they did a good job explaining how the main grail got corrupted either that might be the only part that may be important.
lmao “do edibles”
sakamoto days mentioned
If Nick starts reacting to stuff I'd watch it.
Look at Nick’s Xbox Christmas sweater. 🤣
My favorite anime with a long name is either I Couldn't Become a Hero So I Reluctantly Decided to Get a Job, or My Mental Choices are Completely Interfering with My School Romantic Comedy
i do want the bits back. i miss the humor in this pod from that era
Drunk stream 😂😂😂
Wow as if spaghetti-mas was a year ago
I never bought Patreon but I think I’m a do it😅
In regards to 'This manga/anime has -too many- characters, look into World Trigger. There's about... seventy characters in the current arc?
7:21 Yuri on ice 5 cm per second sounds a little personal in my opinion but you can also watch anime Christmas specials Chrome shows those are also good
I’m from CT I want to know what County Danny is from not town that’s to personal but I’m curious if we grew up near each other.
I want danny to force nick to watch psycopass. if I back the patreon is there anyway I can make Nicks homework to watch this show.
