Our podcast has always been a fantastic opportunity to gather the Kanzenshuu staff and our many friends together to review various aspects of the franchise in audio form (in addition to our standard written reviews). From our legendary “Manga Review of Awesomeness” (covering the entirety of the manga with experienced and completely new fans alike) to our never-quite-on-hiatus “Dragon Ball GT Review of Awesomeness” to our ongoing “Dragon Ball Super Story Arc Reviews” — and everything in between! — we continue to bring the best analysis to your ears each week. Beyond story-based reviews, we also regularly cover the Dragon Ball franchise’s video games, music releases, figures, and more!
*NOTE: Sound quality for the podcast improves around Episode #0112 with various equipment upgrades
