Episode 109 - I’m the Villainous, So I’m Taming The Final Boss [Part 1]
We've seen it before, where our main character gets isekai'd into an Otome game and has to re-write her destiny to NOT die.

We hope you agree with us and give this show a watch! In this episode we also discuss the first episodes of both Chainsaw Man and Mob Psycho 3, how Rie Takahashi is the best and how sometimes beloved shows and movies need to just end already.
