The crew is BACK and loaded with takes! We kick things off breaking down Super Bowl Sunday where the Seahawks dominated the Patriots — was Drake May just rattled or was the offensive line the real problem? We debate Sam Darnold's redemption arc, Kenneth Walker's MVP performance, and whether this Super Bowl lacked the aura of past matchups.Then we dive deep into Bad Bunny's historic halftime show — the first fully Spanish-language Super Bowl performance. Santo and the crew share what it meant for Caribbean and Latin culture, we rank it against past halftime shows, and address the fake outrage discourse head-on. Plus: who should perform next year? K-pop? Dancehall? Tyler the Creator?For Valentine's week, we run a "Name X Relationships Better Than Goku & Chi-Chi" challenge that gets heated FAST. And in our main event, we officially launch the BSS Anime Hall of Fame — debating criteria, inducting our first class of characters, and getting into a full-blown argument over whether Guts popularized the greatsword trope. You don't want to miss this one.Keywords:Super Bowl recap, Seahawks vs Patriots, Drake May, Sam Darnold, Kenneth Walker MVP, Bad Bunny halftime show, Super Bowl halftime show ranking, Caribbean culture, Latin representation, NFL international, anime relationships, Valentine's Day anime, Goku and Chi-Chi, anime Hall of Fame, Berserk Guts debate, Bleach vs JJK, Big Three anime, Sailor Moon, Eren Jaeger, Pikachu, Black Sensei Society, anime podcast, sports and anime, K-pop Super Bowl, Tyler the Creator, Jay-Z Roc Nation, Fate anime, Frieren, anime debatehttps://linktr.ee/blacksenseisociety
