Welcome to The Anime Effect, the weekly podcast hosted by Crunchyroll's own in-house, resident anime experts – Nicholas Friedman, LeAlec Murray, and Leah President. The show is a lively mixture of roundtable news and discussion with Crunchyroll hosts and special guests as they debate hot topics, provide recommendations, and tackle fan questions.

Jamaal Williams–possibly the biggest anime fan in the NFL–joins the show to share why he reps anime so hard, the anime that inspires him, and who he would draft on his all-anime football team. First, hosts gush over the new JUJUTSU KAISEN and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure merch, the return of two anime, and more!
