Welcome back to Nostalgia, Plus Ultra Anime Podcast! In this episode, Zo is joined by his Dad for a cross-generational deep dive into Netflix’s Bet, the live-action adaptation of the hit anime Kakegurui. Does the high-stakes gambling drama capture the psychological intensity and chaotic energy of the original series, or does it fold under pressure?

Then, Taylor and Zo shift gears to music and anime news. They review The Mountain, the latest album from Gorillaz, discussing standout tracks, production style, and how it ranks among the band’s previous releases.

Next, they explore the powerful introduction of Hiromi Higuruma in Jujutsu Kaisen, unpacking his abilities, moral code, and impact on the events of the Culling Games.
