Deb leads the crew through Shonen Jump’s Hot New Title, Dandadan by Yukinobu Tatsu. This is a spicy manga, and it makes for a very spicy episode! It’s not for the kiddos, but does that automatically make it perfect for Chip? Powered by RedCircle

This is it, the first ever time we’ve returned to finish up a series that we loved! Kudos to Kaori Tsurutani’s BL Metamorphosis for this incredible honour. So it’s pretty clear that we liked it, but how did we like it? Why did we like it? And perhaps most importantly,...
What’s this? Is it the first time we’ve covered two different books by the same author on Mangasplaining? It certainly is, and it should be no surprise that the awesome Akiko Higashimura is the recipient of this honor! This week we cover her masterwork Tokyo Tarareba Girls, and we hope...
It’s a surprisingly spooky episode to kick off October, as Deb brings the Mangang into the twisted world of Shuzo Oshimi with Blood on the Tracks, volumes 1 and 2. Plus a special ‘Mangasplaining: Listen To Me’ segment with Ed Chavez of Denpa Inc., the English language publisher of many...
All of the Mangasplainers loved this week’s pick, Blank Canvas: My So-Called Artist’s Journey by Akiko Higashimura.
