Episode description

Get ready as I take you on my epic journey from comics to manga! Back in the 2000s, my dad introduced me to a fantastic comic book service with flimsy magazine-style comics and thrilling digests. I felt like part of an exclusive club, and nobody at school knew about it! When the subscription stopped, I discovered mainstream superhero stuff through Marvel and DC movies, clueless about their comic origins. Living in an area with few comic book stores, I tried manga one day, and it blew my mind! expensive, but worth it. My friends dragged me to a manga cafe, where I touched Marvel and DC comics for the first time. Their manga-only recommendations got me hooked! Now, I’m a manga maniac, devouring titles like “Berserk,” “Uzumaki,” “Oyasumi Punpun,” “Domestic Girlfriend,” and “Grand Blue Dreaming.” Currently obsessed with “Oshi no Ko,” I can’t stop flipping through those pages! Join me in this laughter-filled episode as I blend comics and manga, sharing my geek-out moments.
