Everyone has an origin story. From cool anime characters to your neighbors who inexplicably have twenty-two cats, everyone has some sort of tale of their beginnings. Some origin stories are just way better than others. The hosts of Otaku Melancholy definitely do not have one of those way better stories. In this episode, find out Brad and Matt's anime origins, what their transformative shows were, and listen as the hosts share a sentimental moment as to the greatest anime gift they've given each other. Don't worry though. There's still a solid amount of friendly hostility in this episode.
