Customer Reviews
The best weekly Japanese Pop Culture news roundup
This is a great bite sized podcast telling you about all the most important news in the worlds of anime, manga, tokusatsu, Japanese music, and more. Really funny and really informative. It's like reading 6 news sites at once in under a half an hour. Finish your Friday at work right with Friday Ace.
Skip the 24-7 otaku news cycle and listen to Justice Ace
Anime and otaku news sites aren't things I keep up with on a daily basis, and Justice Ace makes it so I don't have to. The show is a great recap of stories from my peripheral geek interests that I otherwise would have missed out on. And as usual, veteran host Mike Dent makes it an entertaining and fun listen. Even as just a passing fan of Japanese pop culture, this podcast is worth your time.
