On My Anime Soapbox

Be warned, I couldn't resist getting up on my anime soapbox. It's just one of those misunderstood things in life, rather like getting to grips with the info that tomatoes are fruit not vegetables. For some people that comes as a shocker. Anime too is not all it seems, and in this episode, I raise questions about the way it's portrayed. Don't worry I also talk about concerning features of 'some' anime. You'll hear that I dedicate lots of focus to finding age appropriate anime so that I protect myself from unsuitable material. As ever, I'm joined by my trusty triplet brother sidekicks, Montgomery and Horatio, as well as welcoming Alice, a new correspondent to Seraphina Speaks. She contributes her thoughtful take on anime and I'm grateful she came on the show. Don't forget you can become a correspondent too. It's also my first review of another podcast for families in today's episode as I share my thoughts on The Ten News show. Introducing listeners to other podcasts is something I know is important. Creator and producer of The Ten News, Tracy Leeds Kaplan, is my fab guest.  I hope you find this episode enjoyable, and thought provoking. If you do, consider leaving me a positive review on whichever podcast platform you choose to listen in on.  Come join me over on my Substack here where I share more social commentary, on trends and more.
