WRQ 07 - Ranking of Kings

00:00 / 2:19:30

We watched Ranking of Kings, a show which bravely asks the question: what if two little guys held hands??

We get to see Boji and Kage go from acquaintances, to gay best friends, to essentially domestic partners, and you know what? It’s good.

Next time, we’re discussing Sonic X! Recommended viewing is episodes 49-52, and the scene from 53 starting at 21:00. For extra credit, watch 11, 21, 26, and 44.

WRQ 06 - Harry Potter

00:00 / 1:39:19

We read Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, and discussed the iconic ship, Wolfstar.

What if a book let you have two different fursonas? That would be pretty neat I bet. But not as neat as a book about a group of friends turning into their fursonas and hanging out.

Next time, we’re discussing Ranking of Kings! Recommended viewing is episodes 1, 2, 7, and 23.

We Rate Queerbait

WRQ 05 - Kemono Friends

00:00 / 1:22:32

We watched episodes 1, 2, 5, and 6 of the hit anime, Kemono Friends!

What happens when the only girl with a braincell goes on an adventure with her dumbass friend? Things get pretty gay, it turns out!

Next time, we will be discussing the Wolfstar ship from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban! A series from an author who has famously never been homophobic (false).

WRQ 04 – The Prestige

We Rate Queerbait

WRQ 04 - The Prestige

00:00 / 1:26:56

We watched The Prestige, and explored some very interesting and creative ways for two guys to make each other mad. Hating someone is kind of like being in love, right? Close enough???

We learn what would happen if a guy were two guys, and just how far some people will go to avoid living with themselves.

Next episode, we’re watching the hit anime Kemonon Friends season 1! Suggested viewing is episodes 1, 2, 5, and 6.

WRQ 03 - Sherlock

00:00 / 1:53:27

We watched Sherlock, and it made us so gd mad.

Has any television show hated its audience as much as Sherlock? Has any show said ‘not gay’ so many times per capita? Does Steven Moffat hate asexuals? We answer all of this and more.

Next week, we’ll be discussing the Christopher Nolan film, The Prestige.

WRQ 02 - Mouse Guard: The Black Axe

00:00 / 1:55:08

We read and discuss Mouse Guard vol. 3: The Black Axe.

Is The Black Axe actually queerbait? Does anyone actually ship Conrad and Celanawe? Do these two terrible gay mice even have a chance to make it work????? I think we answer all of these questions with precise and scientific accuracy.

Next episode, we will be discussing the the absolutely rancid and horrible show of the BBC’s Sherlock. Suggested viewing is S2:E1 and S2:E3.
