Enter the Anime
Still from Netflix Original Enter the Anime

Thanks, we hate it. On this week’s episode, the women mix it up a little, instead of reviewing a live-action adaptation, they review the most recent Netflix Original documentary about anime, Enter the Anime. They dive into the expectations and hopes they had for this film, discuss where it goes wrong and misses the mark completely.

So do yourselves a favor and skip this one, go

To read an in-depth review of the film check out Kate’s review here and believe us, there is a lot to say.
