It’s spooky season, and we’re celebrating Halloween with one of the most infamous anime of the 2000s: Vampire Knight!

Death Note is turning 20 years old, and we finally sat down to watch the first two episodes for our Anime First Impressions series. In this series, we watch the first 2 episodes of an anime we haven't seen before and decide: is it love at first sight, kiss-on-the-first-date material, a second date, or are we ghosting? As two anime girlies, we had to ask… did Death Note predict 2025 internet incel culture?! We recap Light Yagami’s wild god complex, Ryuk’s little apple addiction, and talk about how this dark psychological thriller hits very differently in today’s online culture. If you grew up avoiding “dude anime” or thought Death Note was just edge-core boy propaganda, this episode is for you. Should it be a staple for every anime fan (including the girlies) or is it officially outdated?💖 Anime for Blondes drops new episodes every Monday, plus bonus episodes on the last Wednesday of every month. 💬 Tell us in the comments: should we keep watching Death Note or move on to something lighter?Anime for Blondes is created and produced by Becca Reagan and Alisa Patience, bringing you the ultimate female-gaze takes on anime like DanDaDan, Witch Watch, The Apothecary Diaries, Jujutsu Kaisen, and Solo Leveling!Music by Haley Hernandez @ virtuallyyourshaleyFollow along with us on...Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/animeforblondespod/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@animeforblondespodSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5djhK91vdjYkvzw7Xs5IgX?si=fccb824f5f254353Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@AnimeForBlondesPod Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/anime-for-blondes/id1770563703#deathnote #deathnotemanga #deathnotecosplay #deathnotelight #deathnotemisa #animepodcast #AnimeFirstImpressions #AnimeForGirls #animeforblondes #lightyagami #ryuk #DeathNoteReview #psychologicalanime #anime2025 #WomenInAnime #FeminineGazeAnime #animediscussion #animediscussiongroup #darkanime #darkanimevibes #anime #animegirl #animelover

Welcome back to Anime for Blondes... and welcome to KPOP SUMMER! We're kicking off this episode of our Anime Adjacent series with a full recap and review of KPOP Demon Hunters, the new animated Netflix movie that might not technically be anime, but totally fits our anime girlie vibe. From demon-slaying dance numbers to magical girl group dynamics, this movie has everything: romance, big emotions, and GREAT music. We talk about why KPOP Demon Hunters might be the best kids movie we've seen in a long time, whether this story is secretly a Rapunzel/Tangled retelling, and of course, we reveal our bias (it’s Jinu, obviously.)If you're looking for a fun summer watch or an anime-adjacent title to add to your queue, this one's worth the stream. 💬 Comment below if you are getting Tangled vibes from this movie!📺 KPOP Demon Hunters is now streaming on NetflixThis episode contains spoilers for the ENTIRE movie!

Season 3 of Anime for Blondes is officially here, and we’re kicking things off with something special! We got to see the theatrical premiere of DanDaDan: Evil Eye (the first THREE episodes of Season 2) before they hit Netflix, and as usual, we have a LOT to say.From the unhinged energy of that Season 1 cliffhanger to the jaw-dropping animation and soundtrack, DanDaDan is already shaping up to be the most chaotic and fun anime of the summer. Turbo Granny is still hilarious, Jiji might be our new anime boyfriend (Aleks Le's voice never hurts), and the girlies are locked in for the supernatural WEIRDNESS ahead.💬 Comment below what you're thinking of season 2 so far!📺 DanDaDan Season 2 is now streaming on Netflix, and we’re recapping new episodes every Monday right here on Anime for Blondes!Join us as we dive into DanDaDan: Evil Eye, the start of Season 2, and the wildest arc yet.
