"Anime Crush Tier List Part 1!" - Season 4, Episode 4

**REUPLOAD MINUS EDITING ERROR, PLEASE READ STATEMENT ON INSTAGRAM FOR MORE INFO**

Last month, hosts Asela and kattrina began their epic quest to determine who is the best of the best among their anime crushes. This month, they finally decide which hottie (or hotties) is on top. And there are plenty of shenanigans along the way, from discussion on red flags, to Asela's realization about her type of men, and kattrina's inability to tell anime characters' ages. Listen to Part 1 if you haven't yet! Otherwise, this is going to make zero sense.
