Episode 51 - Trash Anime Friends (Sword Art Online S1)

April Fools! In this bonus episode, we branch out into the world of anime, as our trio rewatches the original season of Sword Art Online to celebrate its tenth anniversary and the franchise's twentieth. Will time have softened us on the catalyst of a decade of isekai domination in anime and manga, or is SAO still just really, really, *really* bad? ~ Welcome to That Time I Started A Podcast To Watch Trash Anime With My Friends And Actually Most Of Them Were Trash! Or The Trash Anime Friends Podcast, for short. Every fortnight, Sean, Mike and Phil watch an anime and discuss the series, looking at the good, the bad... but mostly, the trash. Will we find some gems amongst the junk? Or just slip further into the trash pile? ~ Follow us on Twitter @TrashMangaCast - https://twitter.com/trashmangacast Follow Sean on Twitter @Slazoking - https://twitter.com/Slazoking Follow Mike on Twitter & Twitch @Bersekrer - https://twitter.com/Bersekrer - https://www.twitch.tv/bersekrer Follow Phil on Twitter @PheNaxKian - https://twitter.com/PheNaxKian ~ Support the official release!
