The GLORIO Chat Episode 135: Spring 2023 Anime First Impressions
Yes, we know there are other anime airing this season besides Birdie Wing: Golf Girls’ Story, so we spend some time talking about other new shows… but we also talk about Birdie Wing.

Gee has taken control of the ship in time for Spring 2023 season preview. Every Weekly Shounen Jump adaptation and isekai this season has been thrown overboard to make more time for Gundam and Birdie Wing speculation.
In this supersized episode, we tie up some loose ends from last season including the wild finale to Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury, then we tackle our apprehension toward the new anime season.
When I whittled down this year’s list of watched shows down to smaller and smaller numbers, it turned out that almost everything on there was some kind of adaptation or reboot. What’s up with that? Were they any good?
We chat about hot “new” video game releases Tactics Ogre Reborn and Pokemon Scarlet/Violet, and share our thoughts about the excellent Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.
Artemis joins the usual crew as we talk about the timely Crunchyroll Anime Awards and our usual slate of anime episodes.
Everyone knows Bananya is anime of the year, so we focus on ten other good anime from 2019.
With another GLORIO year in the books, it’s time once again to look back at our picks for the best anime of the year.
Iro is still here with a bag full of arbitrary and somewhat questionable awards.
We touch on the Pokemon Sword & Shield launch, catch up on Chihayafuru and Vinland Saga, and then do our weekly gushing over Beastars.
We talk Death Stranding, say goodbye to Pokemon Sun & Moon, Jel vents about Granblue Fantasy season 2, and of course we cover our regularly scheduled anime talk.
We catch up on the latest anime including Bleach, Soul Eater, and Ruroni Kenshin.
Jel and Iro are joined by Chris which means we talk a lot of Godzilla and Pokemon.
Jel and Iro welcome Chris and colons in their GLORIO chat debut. They share their anime origin stories and we chat about the news, anime we’re watching, and somehow Kaiketsu Zubat?
What do you do when you want to write a top ten list, but you’re too lazy to come up with ten whole entries? Just ask your friends to chip in! Our Two Cents is making its grand return, a feature in which the writers of The Glorio Blog take turns to throw in their proverbial two cents on one topic at a time. That’s one far-fetched question, with up to ten entirely unsolicited answers! Today, we celebrate the recent announcement of Pokémon Sword and Shield by getting all misty eyed about the past.
The most important post I’ve ever written.
We catch up on Bloom Into You, Irozuku, A Certain Magical Index, and the latest tokusatsu, then Aqua gets arrested by Elon Musk’s anime police.
Jel, Iro, Gee, and Aqua go way overtime as we reluctantly say BYE BYE to the very solid Spring 2018 anime season.
Team GLORIO USA hands out mid-term grades to all the shows we’re watching, determining if each show is better, worse, or the same since the last time we discussed them. Also, we pay tribute to the classic Pokémon character Nurse Jenny.
Did your favorite shows make the cut? What did we choose for #1 and why is it Eromanga-sensei? Read on!
