Aisling is definitely not a weeb. She just likes anime. Her friend Jesse isn't familiar with the genre at all. Join the two of them every other Monday on their grand experiment, as Aisling turns Jesse's untrained eyes toward anime of the past and present.
Aisling & Jesse go on a fun little adventure with a viewer-recommended Cute Girls Doing Cute Things anime about camping and friendship! Will this be the anime that inspires either one of our hosts to touch grass?

Serial Experiments Lain
New year new... Hosts? No, Aisling and Jesse are still here, they just might have been forever changed by the things that they witnessed in this series. Horrifying experiments, psychic-like predictions about what the future of media and global connectivity could look like, and more angst than you could shake an emo kid from 2007 at!

Dragon Half
Having survived their encounter with Elfen Lied, Aisling and Jesse sit back to relax and enjoy the no-thoughts-head-empty playfulness of Dragon Half. But will Jesse find this '90s cheeseball comedy OVA as delightful as Aisling? Could this be the beginning of their first major disagreement?

Bocchi The Rock!
Aisling and Jesse begin their journey into the wonderful world of anime with a modern classic - Bocchi The Rock!
A slice-of-life story about cute girls doing cute things, playing music, making friends, and struggling with anxiety. Will either of our hosts find anything about this relatable, or will the sugary sweet nature of the show destroy them before they have a chance to take off?
