Episode 111 - Trashtacular 4nament Arc Part 1

A whole term of trash is in the books, which can only mean it's time for the Trashtacular Forunament Arc! Of the 24 series we've covered this year, which series will be crowned Not Actually Trash? I mean, One Piece, obviously, it's the GOAT. And on the flipside, which will be the Trashest Manga, Friends?

Episode 109 - Sand Land

One of the all-time best mangaka is our focus this time, as we read Sand Land by Akira Toriyama, to celebrate the game coming out tomorrow, and the legacy left behind by one of the greatest to ever do it. Was this short shounen a fitting way to remember him, or a barren desert wasteland amongst his other iconic creations?

Episode 108 - Tokyo Underground

We're going down, down, deeper and down, into the underground to cover 90s shounen manga Tokyo Underground and another piece of Mike's childhood? Was this oldie with wind, gravity and healing powers being flung around a forgotten classic, or just plain forgettable?
