Log Time Podcast #5 | Comedy in Anime — Watch Out for Karen

Log Time is the podcast of The Backloggers where we talk about anime, manga, light novels, and make lewd jokes about romancing people with tentacles.

In this episode, Owningmatt and Mythos discuss the mediocrity of Strike the Blood, moe versions of deadpool in Nyaruko: Crawling With Love!, shows that stretch jokes way too far, Nisekoi season two, Hanayamata, and Hello! Kiniro Mosaic.

Thanks Krista (keytajoy) for making our Logo for this week’s Log Time!
