Why I Don't Like...Mushoku Tensei: Season 1 Part 2: Episodes 21-23
<p>Are there things you don't like? Wouldn't you like to talk about them? Well, I will as a part of this series. From anime, comics, manga, movies, tv shows, video games, and more, I'll be discussing the things I don't like. The point isn't to be overly negative and spiteful, but to critique and praise the media I've engaged with. The show isn't called "Why I Hate," because there are better ways to engage with the media I don't like than to simply discount them as worthless. I will livestream first to the Systematic Geekology and Anazao Ministries Podcast YouTube pages and then will download the audio proper to the podcast Why I Don't Like... on all major podcasting locations. </p><p>I will be continuing with Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation (anime-only), as I explain what I do and don't like about the series in regards to its worldbuilding, characterization, reliance on cliches, and how it impacted the isekai genre to make it what it is today. For this episode, I will be covering episodes 21, 22, and 23 of the second part of the first season. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/anime" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#anime</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/mushokutensei" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MushokuTensei</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/isekai" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#isekai</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/rudeus" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Rudeus</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/eris" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eris</a></p>

The Worst Martial Art Movies - Kung Fu Pizza Party
<p>The Worst of the Worst</p><p>Welcome to my dojo, this is Kung Fu Pizza Party. Today, inspired by one of my favorite YouTubers, I sit down to unpack four lists chronicaling the worst martial art movies. Throughout each list, I give my takes on if the movie deserves to be there or not, why a film being "so bad it's good" is different from being truly unwatchable, and how subjective this whole conversation is. I also (Screen)rant about one particular film that does NOT deserve to be on any of these lists. </p><p>YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@StudioTwoOneNine</p><p>Instagram: @kungfupizzaparty</p><p>Letterboxd: KungFuPizzaPrty</p><p>Merch: bonfire.com/2025kungfu</p><p>IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/list/ls099644963/</p><p>Collider: https://collider.com/worst-martial-arts-movies-ranked/</p><p>Screenrant: https://screenrant.com/bad-martial-arts-movies-enjoy/</p><p>Flickchart: https://www.flickchart.com/charts.aspx?genre=martial+arts&perpage=50&order=desc</p>
