UK legend Blanco joins the Naniverse Family for a chaotic episode. We're debating if the new wave of Anime Movies is a scam, and asking the uncomfortable question: Are Hisoka and Orochimaru actually predators?

Welcome back to Nani Talks. In Episode 8.3, we are joined by Blanco to chop it up about the state of the culture. We dive deep into the current trend of "Anime in Cinema." Is the shift from TV series to theatrical releases a natural evolution, or just a greedy cash grab by the industry? We discuss if this money hungry energy is ruining the storytelling we love.

Later, things get dark as we analyse two of anime's most controversial villains: Orochimaru (Naruto) and Hisoka (Hunter x Hunter). We look at their obsession with younger characters and ask if the "creepy villain" trope has gone too far.

We are back for round two with the Kennington lyricist, Blanco, but this time the energy has shifted. In this episode, we officially introduce the newest member of the Nani Talks squad, Jazzy Jeff. She joins the panel as our new co-host, bringing a fresh perspective and turning up the heat on our guest.

We also unlock a brand new interactive segment: "Guess The Theme Song." With Blackkstarr on the decks spinning snippets of iconic tracks, Blanco is put to the ultimate test to see if his anime knowledge is as sharp as his pen. It is a clash of culture and memory can he name the series before the beat drops?

This is not just an interview; it is a challenge for true fans. We invite you to play along with us, count your score, and drop it in the comments. Watch to see if Blanco clears the board or gets stumped by the deep cuts, and find out who the real anime king is in your circle.

Blanco made his name in the UK Drill scene with Harlem Spartans. But he has evolved into something far more diverse. His solo career showcases a genre-blending sound that stands apart. We sit down with the lyricist to discuss his elevation beyond the roads. He takes us back to his origins. You will hear about his journey from his mum Angolan roots to his movement around South London. We discuss the culture shock of settling in Kennington. Blanco opens up about the tension between street life and his artistry. He reflects on his time in prison and the perspective it gave him. We also dive into his creative influences. Find out how anime became a cornerstone of his identity. See how series like Naruto inspire his wordplay today. This is a conversation about growth, resilience and the power of storytelling.
