Advertise on podcast: But Is It An S-Tier Anime Podcast

In our REAL season finale, your hosts review the tier list we put together during our first season and decide if any of our anime rankings need revisions - in a fair, impartial democratic process, of course. Thank you for listening this past season!

In this season finale, your hosts dive into the much beloved Space Western classic Cowboy Bebop, and butt heads more than they ever have before. Cowboy Bebop has beautiful animation, an iconic soundtrack, a memorable cast of characters, and a legacy that lasts to this day…but is it an S-tier? Listen to find out how we ranked it.

In this filler episode, your happy loner hosts rank our favourite iconic anime squads. This ranking isn’t about who would win in a fight - some of these squads don’t even fight in the first place. This ranking is about vibes, baby. (And what squads we would like to join, or at least observe from a safe distance.)

Our cells are hard at work on this episode as we discuss the edutainment anime that is Cells At Work. This anime has a unique concept and riffs off of anime tropes we know and love to teach us about how the human body works…but is it an S-tier? Listen and find out how we ranked it!

We are rounding up sixteen beloved best boys and throwing them into the ring for this March Madness Bracket Beatdown, where they will go head-to-head as we determine who is the GOAT among male shonen leads.

We know what you’ll say next!...No we don’t, because we’re not as crafty as the observant scoundrel Joseph Joestar, the ungentlemanly crop-top-wearing protagonist of the second installment in Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: Battle Tendency. Part 2 of Jojo gives us the origins of the stone mask, a Joestar-Zepelli reunion, ancient beings who prophesied the names of bands to come…but is it an S-tier? Listen and find out how we ranked it!

Valentine’s Day approaches, and instead of thinking about the beloved ships we want to sail into the sunset, we’ve decided to talk about the anime ships we want to sink. These ships range from questionable to worrying to Only Together Because Plot. There are all canon ships, by the way - we’ll be drawing our swords over fanships another day.

On this episode, we yell as coherently as we can about the mindfuck of an anime that is Shin Sekai Yori. Children go missing, they fall in love, they learn forbidden knowledge, and we, the viewers, never get to relax for a second. Shin Sekai Yori may have changed us irrevocably, but is it an S-Tier?

You know when you watch the first episode of an anime and you feel so shocked and captivated that you can’t not keep going? That’s what this Top 5 list is all about, baby! We’re ranking our Top 5 first episodes/chapters that slapped us across the face, threatened us with a knife, and took all our money.

The best thing about sports anime is that you don’t have to like sports at all; it’s all about the bonds between the athletes, and in the case of Yuri On Ice, the ~romantic entanglements~ between an insecure figure skater on the verge of giving up his career and the dazzling world champion who decides to coach him. Yuri On Ice captivated the hearts of fujoshis everywhere, but is it an S-Tier?

The weather outside is frightful and you know what’s always delightful? Bundling up in some blankets with your hot beverage of choice and your favourite cozy comfort anime. In this episode, we talk about the wide umbrella that is comfort anime and share some of the anime that are always there for us.

What’s better than a love story? A dorky love story about nerds who love each other despite their differing dorky interests. We love Wotakoi over here at the BIIAST Pod and we were super excited to get into all the things that make this story so good. What does it mean to be compatible with a partner? Do we ever really grow up? Should you secretly ship your partner with his work bestie? Wotakoi has it all. But is it an S-Tier?
