Things That I Hate and Like

This review of this season of anime is a long time delay coming. As of this writing/post, some shows are almost finished at like episode 10/11 already. Damn.

At the entrance of the Radio Kaikan building they have a store dedicated to anime related/collab omiyage from many different aspects of anime culture, they even have stuff from vtubers and hololive.
