Slice-of-Life vs. Shounen: Which One's Actually More Unrealistic?

In this episode of Anime Minority Report, we’re asking the real question: Is it more believable to fight demons with friendship—or fall in love after one awkward group project?
Comedian and fellow anime head Nic Sugiarto returns to help us settle the score: Slice-of-Life vs. Shounen. Host Jamie is deep in his romance era, bingeing titles like My Dress-Up Darling and I Married the Girl I Hated in Class. Meanwhile, Guerby still thinks slice-of-life anime is just anime without plot (rude). Can Nic and Jamie convince him to finally give heart-eyes and hallway crushes a chance?
Expect laughs, wild takes, and one very serious debate about which genre is the real fantasy. Spoiler alert: it’s probably the one where high schoolers actually communicate their feelings.
Tap in for the chaos, the comedy, and the unexpected feels.
