Ringer-Verse Recommends: February 2026 (Featuring ‘Frieren’ and a Massive Month for Anime)

I might have to switch to a different app.

Ringer-Verse Recommends: February 2026 (Featuring ‘Frieren’ and a Massive Month for Anime)

But that's okay.

So I'm tentatively like I want to use this as a springboard, I think, to be in my anime era more so than I have been.

And maybe I'll just go back through your previous recommendations, which meant nothing to me at the time.

But now that I'm an anime guy, Delicious in Dungeon is one that you recommended, which sounded intriguing to me at the time.

My daughter does love Grogu.

You can probably see Grogu behind me there.

Ringer-Verse Recommends: February 2026 (Featuring ‘Frieren’ and a Massive Month for Anime)

Hell yeah.

Ringer-Verse Recommends: February 2026 (Featuring ‘Frieren’ and a Massive Month for Anime)

So yes, hopefully it's something I can watch for her.

I think the last trailer...

The Ringer-Verse

was the most promising for me.

Ringer-Verse Recommends: February 2026 (Featuring ‘Frieren’ and a Massive Month for Anime)

Okay.

Ringer-Verse Recommends: February 2026 (Featuring ‘Frieren’ and a Massive Month for Anime)

And sort of raised my hopes somewhat.

We still don't really know what it's about or what the stakes are.

And so, you know, 70% of the marketing thus far has been, isn't Grogo cute, which he is.

The Ringer-Verse
Ringer-Verse Recommends: February 2026 (Featuring ‘Frieren’ and a Massive Month for Anime)

Don't get me wrong.

The Ringer-Verse
Ringer-Verse Recommends: February 2026 (Featuring ‘Frieren’ and a Massive Month for Anime)

But is this...

The Ringer-Verse
Ringer-Verse Recommends: February 2026 (Featuring ‘Frieren’ and a Massive Month for Anime)

A toy tie-in, or is there an actual story here?

Or look, are we getting back to the early days of Mando before it became about the Mandoverse and we're incorporating every character from the Filoni-verse and it was just, we're having an adventure of the week, you know?

The Ringer-Verse
Ringer-Verse Recommends: February 2026 (Featuring ‘Frieren’ and a Massive Month for Anime)

It's a procedural.
