Feudal Anime Podcast

This week we talked about “My Tiny Senpai” and the discussion was a bit of a ride because we spent the first half totally talking past each other. Jack was trying to give the Manager credit as well shed light on what he was doing, while Rick was convinced he was talking about the main couple's lack of progress.

And Jack felt like the whole  season felt like one giant filler episode. About the anime:My Tiny Senpai is basically a cozy office romance slice of life type of show where Takuma Shinozaki is a new-ish employee trying to keep his head above water, and his senior coworker Shiori Katase keeps swooping in with praise, encouragement, followed up with a “I’m just being a good senpai”
