This week, it's the most wonderful time of the year! Time for Remington to take over the show & kick off the 12 Days of April fools, and this year we are following a bit of a gambling theme so not even Remington knows exactly what Shaun will be watching! Meanwhile Shaun thinks back to how this all started. If you'd like to give us feedback, ask a question, or correct a mistake, send an email to AnimeOutOfContext@gmail.com. Like our show? Check out our friends Shonen Flop & AnimEighties for more anime & manga reviews! Visit our Patreon at patreon.com/AnimeoutofContext if you would like to contribute to the show and get bonus content ranging from clips from our pre-episode banter, bonus episodes (including the 12 days of April Fools), our prototype Episode 0, to even getting shout-outs in the show!
