It’s time once again to run down the results of our annual survey! VLordGTZ joins us to dissect the data and contextualize what the podcast’s biggest triumphs were in 2018. Find out which guests and episodes fans liked the most, alongside a bunch of other interesting statistics! The answer to what was the most beloved moment from the podcast last year might (not) surprise you! Plus, we discuss the recent Jump Start Act-Age and Naoshi Komi’s latest one-shot!



Thanks again to everyone who took the survey! The responses we collected were very informative and will go a long way in improving the show in 2018 and beyond. We have lots of exciting plans and are preparing to make good on a lot of the things suggested in the survey in the immediate future. Definitely keep your eyes on both the podcast and youtube channel as both we’ll be producing a lot of ambitious new content starting in the summer. In the short-term, look forward to a lengthy news roundup on the next Manga Mavericks, as well as a very special episode of @ Movies coming shortly! We’re getting back into the swing of our bi-weekly schedule, so you can expect more podcasts more regularly!
