Ben Lindbergh

So thank you so much for listening.

Stay tuned because we've got a lot of great stuff coming for you in April on this show and others.

Thank you to Devin Renato for producing this episode.

Thanks to Arjuna Ramgopal for greenlighting it, as always, and his senior podcast management.

Thanks to Grumpkin for accompanying me for the intro.

She's asleep now.

I don't blame her.

And I will let you get to sleep and release you from your obligation of watching Ringerverse Recommends.

Until next time, I hope that you'll recommend the Ringerverse.

Well, hello, and welcome into the Ringerverse, your Nexus feed for all things fandom.

I am Ben Lindberg, senior editor for the Ringer, Button Mash host, and also your host here at Ringerverse Recommends.

Rejoined this month by Grumpkin the Great, my companion and co-host, who was absent for last month's edition.

I was in the office, now I'm back home, and so is Grumpkin, and we are bringing you the February 2026 edition of Ringerverse Recommends.

As is often the case with February, this month seems to be over before I knew it.

And we had plenty of nerd culture content to discuss on our various feeds.

But as always, some excellent releases slipped through the cracks, and that's where Ringerverse Recommends comes in to pick up the slack.

So today I will be talking to your friend and mine, Charles Holmes, one of the Midnight Boys, one of the Midnight Men.

And as we all know, he is the anime master.

I am but the learner.

But today he will be schooling me.
