Up next, seasonal reviews and ONCE AGAIN Rent-a-Girlfriend is causing very emotional responses, plus some surprising talk about the possibility of another webtoon being a disappointment. After that, the boys explain how they rate anime and whether or not rating shows is even the best way to compare them. Finally, in the news this week, Djokovic gets disqualified from the U.S open but was it his 'fault'...
