Summary
Now that 2026 has well and truly begun, we can start another of our traditions, the seasonal anime tie-in! And for the first time in a long time we’re drawing inspiration from the villainess trope, as we let The Holy Grail of Eris bring out the worst in us! But was that a good thing? Or just more slop to animate two frames of and stick an AI sub or dub onto... ~ Welcome to That Time I Started A Podcast To Read Trash Manga With My Friends And Actually Most Of Them Were Trash But Some Of Them Weren’t! Or The Trash Manga Friends Podcast, for short. New episodes drop every fortnight, where our trio of Sean, Mike and Phil read the first two volumes (or equivalent) of a manga, webtoon, manhua or manhwa, analysing every little thing to discuss what’s good, what’s bad, but mostly, what’s trash. Five years in, we’re just getting started, as trash never ends, and neither do we. So please, come join us and listen to our book club slash never-ending existential nightmare! ~ Follow us on social media!
