Yeah, because how many freaking, like, series from the 2000s, like, manga or anime just from, like, that era where, like, everything awful just happens to the main characters? Like, they're treated awful, like...
SamHOST
68:52

We're looking at three titles that we've already covered on this podcast, but Morgana has not read.
dakazuHOST
30:08
So either they were before Morgana joined the podcast or maybe when she was out.
dakazuHOST
30:12
And these three titles are Billy Bat, Fire Punch, And Historiae.
dakazuHOST
30:19
So with all Morgana's Manga Makeups, we want to ask Morgana, which one of these titles shall we talk about first?
Morgana SantilliHOST
30:27
I'd like to do this in the order I read them, I think.
WrenHOST
130:23
I don't know.
WrenHOST
130:23
We talk about that with, like, fucking Blame and Fire Punch, where it's like this is made by

JamesHOST

We started the year off talking about some monsters.
JamesHOST
137:14
We've read Frankenstein.
JamesHOST
137:17
What else did we read? I know we did Fire Punch, but there was a third thing.
JamesHOST
137:19
What was the third thing?
Ionatan KuperwajsHOST
48:08
I picked up the source material after the first season of the show.
Ionatan KuperwajsHOST
48:11
And since then, I've read most of Fujimoto's works other than Fire Punch.
Ionatan KuperwajsHOST
48:14
I haven't gotten to that yet, but I do really enjoy collecting and reading manga as a casual, I would say, hobby.
Ionatan KuperwajsHOST
48:22
But I think all that being said, now looking back on it, as I learned more about the animation approach that they took to the first season of Chainsaw Man being kind of cinematic with Ryu Nakayama as the director, that was very controversial at the time.
Kyle Ramsey LalichHOST
41:53
The animation, incredible.
Kyle Ramsey LalichHOST
41:56
I do got to say that as a preamble that, uh, after, after reading fire punch from Fujimoto and I was already like, I was selling all my stocks on chainsaw man, like season, like all the things that about chainsaw season one that had me going like, I don't know.
Kyle Ramsey LalichHOST
42:17
Like, I feel like this is, I feel like this is going nowhere.
Kyle Ramsey LalichHOST
42:22
And then reading a complete work of his and being like, Oh man, He's going to fumble it.

Cody ChambersHOST
51:00
I love it so much.
Cody ChambersHOST
51:02
And even if...
Cody ChambersHOST
51:04
I hate the ending, which honestly, I read all of Fire Punch.
Cody ChambersHOST
51:08
Kyle is correct.
CamGUEST
43:11
As far as the detail within each of the panels is okay.
CamGUEST
43:15
Then again, Chainsaw Man is a horror, so it's supposed to look kind of gross, because Fire Punch doesn't exactly look like Chainsaw Man.
CamGUEST
43:22
It's also something to keep in mind.
CamGUEST
43:24
Fuck it.
CamGUEST
43:25
Y'all can stop making Chainsaw Man.
CamGUEST
43:27
Just make Fire Punch.
CamGUEST
43:28
I'd rather have that.
CamGUEST
43:29
Much rather have that.
dakazuHOST
43:18
But, uh, the following week when we come back, it'll be our 12-year anniversary, and we're gonna celebrate it by doing a Morgana's Manga Make-up.
dakazuHOST
43:28
We're gonna read the first volume of Historie, Fire Punch, and Billy Bat.
dakazuHOST
43:35
It is happening.
dakazuHOST
43:36
We're finally going to go back to Billy Bat.
dakazuHOST
43:39
And as, uh, a special guest, we're gonna have our friend, manga letterer, Aidan Clark, join us.
dakazuHOST
43:47
So not only is he going to talk about his time doing lettering for Billy Bat, he will also be talking about Fire Punch and Historie.
dakazuHOST
43:55
Should be a very fun time.
dakazuHOST
43:56
We haven't had him on since our nine-year anniversary when we did Pluto, so we're very excited about that.
