1. Hosts seem to like hanging out and don’t undercut each other.
2. Respectful discussion of the show without sugarcoating some of its more sticky moments
3. Cultural context instead of just a recap.

I have been absolutely DEVOURING this show for the last month. I’m only on ep. 87 but am quickly catching up. I usually listen on Spotify, but came to Apple Podcasts to leave a review.

Tuxedo Mauve ,

I’m watching along with them, and it’s great!

As a newcomer to Sailor Moon, it’s fun to watch an episode and then listen to this podcast. Their fun conversations and insights really add to my Watch experience. From one Sailor Noob to another, keep up the good work!

Issa Noob Review

I absolutely love the podcast. I do a lot of driving for work, and I just started watching Sailor Moon within the last few months. I live for podcasts that go over shows I’ve seen, that way I can visually see the content in my mind that they’re talking about. I knew this show would be exactly what I would love. Keeps me going on my long drives, makes me laugh with the banter, and I love listening to this duo talk about life, anime, and all our favorite shows. Thank you so much for everything y’all do!
