There’s never a dull moment in the world of anime and Pop Break is diving right into the action! Join anime enthusiasts Amanda Rivas and Josh Sarnecky as they geek out monthly with a panel of dedicated experts and special guests on exciting anime news, trending anime in TV and/or movies, and anime recommendations spanning different genres that everyone should be watching. If you are a lifelong anime lover or just taking that initial leap into the genre that has something for everyone, this is the podcast for you!


To kick things off on Anime x Pop, Amanda and Josh are joined by Editor-in-Chief of ThePopBreak.com and host of The Socially Distanced podcast Bill Bodkin, and one of the hottest professional wrestlers in the Texas indy scene, The Flamingo King Branden Vice, to search for the legendary One Piece! They share their thoughts on the recently announced Bruce Lee anime project slated for 2024, the debut of Monkey D. Luffy’s Gear 5 form in the One Piece anime, and the highly anticipated Netflix live action One Piece series. We hope you enjoy this adventure with our own version of the Straw hat crew!


Join us in our regular time slot on the last Monday of the month as we talk about the highly anticipated Shibuya arc on Jujitsu Kaisen and the second cour of Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War as it comes to an end!
