Hello! Welcome to the very first episode of Not Your Best Girl, an anime podcast with A-tier hosts and D-tier taste. Join your hosts Kim & Lee Anne as we track our progress through any number of horrible anime challenges -- doing our best to learn something along the way -- and then assemble our newfound knowledge into something that’s more than the sum of its terrible, terrible parts. Will we be able to do it? Who knows! But here’s to trying.


In this introductory episode, we offer a sampling of our tastes, so you can get to know us just a bit better! We also dive into our format for standard episodes as well as tell you a bit about how we went from “haha what if we did this” to “Oh God, We’re Actually Doing This.” (Apologies for any audio issues -- we’re working on improving our recording quality for all following episodes.)


We are committed to being as inclusive, intentional, and caring as possible during our discussions. Each future episode will be broken up into sections, and in the text description we will provide applicable content warnings and timestamps for those sections. If you have any additional content warnings you’d like for us to add, please let us know and we will add them immediately and continue to note those in new episodes!


P.S. Lee Anne really wants you to know that she knows Ping Pong and Sarazanmai are 11 eps and not 12. Thank you.
