This week on the Anime Alchemist Podcast, we break down the emotional impact of Kuma’s flashback in One Piece and what it means moving forward. We also take a closer look at Oda’s recent post featuring an Imu plush — is it a joke, or is he hinting at something bigger?

In our Weekly Anime Reports, we talk about the latest developments in My Dress-Up Darling and Gachiakuta, and why these series continue to stand out in the current season.

We also revisit Boruto chapters 31 through 40, discussing the highs, the lows, and how the manga is setting the stage for what’s next.

If you’re into thoughtful anime discussion with a laid-back vibe, you’re in the right place.
