Duck Amuck in Japan | Episode 52: Hold Back the Polar Opposites

It's the first Duck Amuck in Japan of 2026, and the guys got lots of anime on their mind. But first, they give a shoutout to a fellow podcast show that had a familiar guest on it. King Baby Duck unleashing a surprise Quack Quiz on AFLM and JonStar, and they look at the Year of the Horse in an appropriate fashion. KBD celebrates his 41st birthday at a gyaru bar, and attends recent shows from Ayumi Hamasaki and Babymetal. But JonStar finds himself excited over the new Protomen album, a record that's been over 15 years in the making!

However, it's all about Winter 2026 anime, with returning favorites and some new rom-coms! Invisible men? Demon lord daughters? Evil spirits? Adventurers galore? It's a very big stack of anime to go through!
