I’m not exactly sure where Beastars Final Season and the new Gundam GQuuuuuuX fit in the anime season schedule, but we talk about those and other shows airing in Winter 2025.
Our excitement for shows like Dan Da Dan, Thunderbolt Fantasy, and Bananya is pitted against the disappointment of GUNDAM: Requiem for Vengeance.
We talk about Metaphor ReFantazio, Look Back, and the greatest work of fiction ever made: Thunderbolt Fantasy.
It’s a new season of anime and we talk about big time old shows like Dragon Ball DAIMA, big time new shows like Dan Da Dan, and, most importantly, the new GLORIO DLC for Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO.
We give our final thoughts on the shows we watched in Summer 2024, including a few surprise backlog items. This episode is better than 3 out of 5 stars, I promise.
We get nostalgic in both good and bad ways as we preview some of the big name anime airing in Fall 2024.
Another shout out to Megan thee Stallion, a new Kamen Rider, and our final predictions for the Summer 2024 anime season.
Before diving into our usual anime coverage, we say a few words on the passing of voice actress Atsuko Tanaka, laugh at the absurd English language release of Girls Band Cry, and share final thoughts on the disappointing Kamen Rider Gotchard.
We cover two big anime adjacent news events with the end of the My Hero Academia manga and the official English language release of the original Fate/stay night visual novel. Forget the clickbait, listen on if you want to hear the real title of this episode.
Hell has frozen over and Iro finally gets to talk about the Tsukihime remake, then it’s on to the surprising number of shows that we are still watching this season. Remember kids, it’s not a Domain Expansion, it’s called a Reality Marble. Get it right.
We say goodbye to the legendary Gainax before diving into our Summer 2024 preview. Hopefully someone out there understands our inside jokes.
Artemis joins to revive some shows the rest of us dropped, we catch up on Sandland, and then we spend a lot of time talking about girls being stressed about music.
We talk about our Spy x Family CODE White theater experience, classic (?) 1986 video game Rolling Thunder, and, of course, more Drake vs. Kendrick rap beef.
We talk about the new Spring 2024 shows including the hottest new show of all: Drake vs. Kendrick rap beef.
It’s been a pretty solid season, but do any of these shows break The Curse of Kenjiro Tsuda?
We say a few words on the passing of Akira Toriyama, then dive into our Spring 2024 anime preview.
There are a LOT of anime adjacent video games hitting us all at once, so we hit the GLORIO Gaming no Korner in addition to our usual anime coverage.
We’ve trimmed down our watch list to a lean six shows, but most of them are pretty good… even Metallic Rouge?
Metallic Rouge is bad but should we blame prolific voice actor Kenjiro Tsuda? Will Sengoku Youko be the one to break the curse?
New year, new season, new anime for us to love (or hate). Sengoku Youko is good, we promise!
Is Scott Pilgrim anime? Is Jem and the Holograms anime? You can just give this podcast to men and they will be thrilled.
We get into a spirited discussion about the Gridman Universe movie and talk about the latest news of bad working conditions at MAPPA, this time direct from the CEO’s mouth.
With Pluto hitting Netflix and big name shows like Spy x Family and Frieren, will our anime of the year come from this season? We discuss those shows as well as a few anime that will NOT make our top 10 list.
We catch up on more anime from the new season that we didn’t get to cover last episode, including Spy x Family season 2.
We a say a few parting words for the Summer season (sorry Undead Murder Farce) and dive into the surprisingly interesting new shows for Fall. Maybe this season isn’t as cursed as we thought it was?
Is the Fall 2023 anime season cursed, or will it be redeemed by a few GLORIO favorite manga adaptations?
We talk about the anime we're still watching, catch up on Kamen Rider coming and going, and get into a lengthy discussion about boring anime protagonists. Yeah, it's that kind of season.
Gee is running the show this week which means he’s going to use the first 10 minutes to talk about Armored Core 6 instead of the Summer 2023 season of anime. Thankfully Artemis is here to talk about a bunch of anime that nobody else watched.
Smoking cats aside, the number of shows we’re watching this season is starting to dwindle. Is it time to hit the backlog?
We talk about more new shows, go in-depth on Shin Kamen Rider, and Iro resists a possible career as an isekai light novel writer.
It's our 11th anniversary and we get a little nostalgic, daring to ask if anime is better or worse than it was in 2013. This might not be the best anime season to ask that question, but hey, we did find some things to watch!
We share our final thoughts on the Spring 2023 season, a solid group of shows that managed to survive some bumpy endings. Yes, that includes Birdie Wing and Gundam.
We do our best to preview the Summer 2023 season, but still end up talking about Birdie Wing and Gundam.
Aqua has dared to question the unassailable Birdie Wing: Golf Girls’ Story, and we wonder if our favorite shows this season will cross the finish line without falling apart.
As we approach the final stretch of the season, I still can't decide if Oshi no Ko is good. But hey, plenty of other good shows as we get into Birdie Wing, Heavenly Delusion (Tengoku Daimakyo), and we talk about one episode of Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury for almost as long as the episode itself.
We discuss Oshi no Ko possibly not living up to its explosive start, our disappointment with Ranking of Kings: The Treasure Chest of Courage, and everyone’s favorite show about star crossed lesbians being manipulated by their parents and powerful corporations… and maybe even some Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury!
Yes, we know there are other anime airing this season besides Birdie Wing: Golf Girls’ Story, so we spend some time talking about other new shows… but we also talk about Birdie Wing.
We wrap up whatever shows from Winter 2023 survived to the end, but nothing else matters because BIRDIE WING IS BACK and that’s all I want to talk about.
Gee has taken control of the ship in time for Spring 2023 season preview. Every Weekly Shounen Jump adaptation and isekai this season has been thrown overboard to make more time for Gundam and Birdie Wing speculation.
In addition to our usual anime coverage, we talk about several anime adjacent games we’ve been into lately. Please play Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society, now available on Playstation, Nintendo Switch, and Steam.
1 Aikatsu! fan Peter details their recent trip to Japan, Jel goes to the Kaguya-sama: Love is War movie, and the NieR:Automata anime is back.
As we grind into the midpoint of the season, we talk about our regularly scheduled shows and… sports?
We add a few more Winter 2023 shows, say some parting words for NieR:Automata ver. 1.1a as it goes on hiatus, and dive back into our complicated feelings toward Trigun Stampede.
In this supersized episode, we tie up some loose ends from last season including the wild finale to Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury, then we tackle our apprehension toward the new anime season.
In our final episode of 2022, we make our final predictions for currently airing shows and even fit in a few previews for next season.
First, you save money by growing your own tomatoes at home. Then, you get a loan from your corporate space czar dad. And just like that, you are now a teenage CEO!… In addition to our usual seasonal anime, Peter joins the chat to share their experience at Scotland Loves Animation 2022 and some thoughts on I’m the Villainess, So I’m Taming the Final Boss.
We chat about hot “new” video game releases Tactics Ogre Reborn and Pokemon Scarlet/Violet, and share our thoughts about the excellent Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.
Chainsaw Man (the anime) is bad! Bocchi the Rock is good! Gundam Aerial is actually…. These shocking revelations and more in this episode of The GLORIO Chat.
Jel and Iro return to talk about more new Fall 2022 shows, including the mega hit Chainsaw Man.
Fall 2022 features some of the year’s highest profile anime. To stay on brand, we talked about less than 10 of them.
We discuss the latest Crunchyroll controversy, rave about Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, then do our best to give final thoughts on Summer 2022 despite most of the shows not ending yet.
It's season preview time again, and we check out the onslaught of high profile sequels that make up the Fall 2022 season.
No children were harmed during the recording of this super-size episode of The GLORIO Chat, which is more than we can see for some of the shows we watched.
Deep in the heart of the Summer 2022 season, we add Kakegurui Twin and, surprisingly, Uncle from Another World to our usual watch list.
We talk about both anime endorsed by Hideo Kojima this season, then hit the backlog because there's not much else to watch.
Somehow, we are still here after 10 years! After a look back at how things looked in our first season (all the way back to Summer 2012), we begrudgingly give our first impressions of the Summer 2022 season.
We bid temporary farewell to the best season of anime comedies in recent memory, including some wild Birdie Birdie speculation for Birdie Wing season 2.
As we rapidly approach the GLORIO blog's 10th anniversary, we find ourselves still trying to get excited about new anime. Please read the Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer manga.
We catch up on Kamen Rider and Digimon, talk about all the shows putting the “romance” in romantic comedy, and declare Birdie Wing the greatest television show of all time.
We discuss wholesome monster girls and debate who had the best bars in all the anime rap battles this season.
We have a serious, nuanced, and mature discussion about the serious, nuanced, and mature anime of the Spring 2022 season.
We give our first impressions of the Spring 2022 season, which seems to be full of light hearted comedies and slice of life series. No complaints here!
We discuss the latest big changes at Crunchyroll, then vent our disappointment with the shows ending this season. Unfortunately yes, that includes Ranking of Kings.
Another anime season is upon us! We chat about the Spring 2022 season, featuring a lot of romantic comedies and the resurrection of ancient properties like Tiger & Bunny and Black Rock Shooter.
We give our first impressions of Elden Ring, wrap up The Orbital Children and Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean (for now), and discuss potential controversy with Ranking of Kings.
We discuss Crunchyroll's 2022 Anime Awards, some shocking Nintendo Direct news, the Shenmue anime, and of course, the backlog. More Thunderbolt Fantasy!
We hit a wide variety of topics including the Lucifer and The Biscuit Hammer anime announcement, the latest in Saturday morning kids’ shows, and some backlog we’re finally catching up on. Oh, and I guess some currently airing anime too.
Coming hot off a great year of anime in 2021, 2022 might not be off to the best start. I’m sure we’ll find something to watch, right?
We made it to 100 episodes! In our last GLORIO chat of the year, we give our final thoughts on the Fall 2021 season, even though many shows will be carrying into next season.
We bid farewell to The Heike Story, welcome back Eighty-Six: 86, and go in hard on the latest developments in Sakugan.
We have finally caught up and settled in with the Fall 2021 season. The Heike Story and Ranking of Kings continue to impress, while early favorites Komi Can't Communicate and Sakugan show early signs of drop-off. Will any of these shows feature in our rapidly approaching top 10 anime of the year?
We say goodbye to Fena: Pirate Princess, catch up on a few leftovers from last season, then settle in with the Fall season shows we'll (probably) be sticking with.
After a great Spring season and not so great Summer season, it seems balance has been restored to the anime world. The crew gives their first impressions of the good and bad (but mostly good?) new shows of the Fall 2021 season.
It's strange times in the anime world as we try to do first looks, final thoughts, and Fall 2021 season previews in one single episode.
In Jel’s absence, the crew chats about this season’s usual anime lineup and sneaks in some Kamen Rider talk.
In addition to our regularly scheduled anime, we chat about Evangelion 3.0+1.01 Thrice Upon a Time and the debut of Fena: Pirate Princess.
Anime might not be good this season, but at least it's... interesting? We continue to analyze the shows we are watching, including the previously impossible concept of a bad baseball episode.
We discuss a few new shows trickling in while coming to terms with the shows we’re watching this season, including possibly hitting the backlog.
We talk about a lot of shows we probably will not be watching by next episode, but it’s not all bad, right? …right???
We do our best to preview the Summer 2021 anime season, but things go off the rails as we try to find shows we want to talk about.
In this super-size episode of The GLORIO Chat, we get in our final predictions for the Spring 2021 season.
We're back from a week off to rave about how good anime is this season... just not 86: Eighty Six.
It's a wild new season, featuring solid safe bets like Megalo Box and Dynazenon, as well as surprises like Odd Taxi and... Pretty Boy Detective Club???
With another season in the books, we discuss the diminishing returns from our favorite (?) shows of the Winter 2021 anime season.
Celebrate a full year of quarantine lockdown by taking a peek a the new anime season! yay...
We drop a few of our regular shows, Jel talks about the Given movie, and Iro threatens to steal your significant other.
A surprising number of shows have survived the first month of the season, and we’re going to talk about them all.
We pay our respects to the 2021 Crunchyroll Anime Awards, Jel catches up with Jujutsu Kaisen, and chat about whatever shows we're still watching.
New year, new anime season, new theme music... we are doing our best to start 2021 right. But is the new season any good? The GLORIO crew discusses.
Before we get too deep into wrapping up 2020 anime, the GLORIO crew takes a look at what's coming in the Winter 2021 season.
As the season crawls toward the finish line, we take some time to chat about some of the anime-ish games we've been playing in addition to our usual anime talk.
Halfway through the season we welcome back Gal and Dino, catch up on some other anime trash we haven't discussed in a while, and check in for another Kamen Rider update.
We are still talking about Great Pretender somehow (thanks Netflix), discussing the anime versus the game with Magatsu Wahrheit Zuerst, and we finally get off some Genshin Impact takes.

Anime is back! The crew gives their first impressions of the good, average, and hilariously bad new shows from the Fall season.
We tie a neat bow on a messy season, including final thoughts about Appare Ranman, DECA-DENCE, and whatever else we managed to finish.
