This episode I take a look at the manga Town Of Evening Calm, Country Of Cherry Blossoms. Joining me on the review is Eeeper of the Eeeper’s Choice Podcast. Eeeper actually sent me this manga in to review, and is a good example of how to get me to review something. It’s a great manga, and seems to be overlooked like most great manga these days. Enjoy the review!

News items:

• Last Gasp Books – publishers of the English edition.
• Town Of Evening Calm… @ Wikipedia
• Official Movie Website – anyone know where I can find a English version of this film?
• Hiroshima bombings @ Wikipedia

This episode I do what most lazy unprepared podcasters do, read your e-mail! I’ve been playing a lot of voicemail lately and have been neglecting all your great e-mail, so we start correcting that in this episode. I also take a look at some news including the upcoming live-action Akira movie, and some strange individuals in Japan. Don’t forget to keep those e-mails and voicemails coming in, I always love to hear from you. The voicemail number is 206-339-9277 in case you forgot.

News items:

• Live Action Akira Movies Announced (from IGN.com)
• “Girl” at Japanese school was 39-year-old man (from Reuters) – This is a very weird story, I wonder what this guy’s intention was?
• Japanese footwear fetish thief used boot odor to fantasize about owners (from Mainichi.jp) – I’ve honestly never understood this fetish.
