Hearoes and Weebs, we've lined up a special watch party strictly for obsessive anime and manga fanatics. Weeb Wednesdays is a new party hosted by podcaster/journalist John Robinson IV, of Ball Talkers Podcast fame.
It’s a two-hour block of uninterrupted anime awesomeness for you to watch, talk, and network with other Weebs. For the second Weeb Wednesday Watch Party, starting at 8:00 PM EDT / 5:00 PM PDT on May 26, John will watch episodes 5-8 of Jujutsu Kaisen, available on Crunchyroll.
