We wanna be the very best
Like no podcast ever was
To read manga is our real test
To review them is our cause
We will broadcast across the internet
Downloaded far and wide
Help people to understand
The story that’s inside
Manga! (Gotta read ’em all), it’s Colton and me
I know it’s our hobby
(Manga!)
Ooh, you’re my co-host
In a podcast we do bi-weekly
Manga! (Gotta read ’em all), a backlog so huge
Our library cards will pull us through
You loan me, and I’ll loan you
M-an-ga!
(Gotta read ’em all)
Gotta read ’em all
Manga!
You know, I was also going to do a parody of the Pokerap, but somehow, I don’t think Tezuka would approve of a rap number if he were alive to see this.
Episode 10! We’re finally in the double digits. If this podcast were a person, and episodes represented it’s age, why, it’d be old enough to go on it’s own Pokemon journey! Thank you guys for all your support and comments so far! It really means a lot to us! We’ve got plans for some fun topics to cover in the future and a few projects related to the podcast in the works, so look forward to those!
This week we dive headfirst into a heap of lists and licensing news! Oricon’s top selling manga and light novel lists for the first half of 2015 are out, and we’re here to give you our thoughts on each! Adding to the excitement, Seven Seas spent a week dishing out a heck ton of new manga licenses, sure to sate the tastes of many a yuri fan! To top it all off, we answer some questions and make some exciting announcements for future episodes! It’s over two hours of mirthful manga talk, and this week, we’ve got a breakdown to help you navigate through all our drole discussion!
