Description

Covers all of RG Veda by CLAMP.This hyper-violent fantasy series was CLAMP's first traditionally published work — and it shows. Shojo & Tell host Ashley and her boytoy Asher talk about the highs and lows of this high-concept series about destiny and the power of love (what else is new?). All good boys are praised, and Yasha is not on the list.REFERENCESRG Veda is available from Dark HorseListen to Clampcast's more in-depth RG Veda episodes!Religious texts mentioned:Rig VedaMahabharataRamayanaOther CLAMP series mentioned:Magic Knight RayearthCardcaptor SakuraXTokyo BabylonTsubasaxxxHolicOther media mentioned:DigimonNoragamiAir GearRanma 1/2The Vision of EscaflowneHana-KimiOctopath TravelerFinal Fantasy XVHavenHomestuckOutro song: "The Streatham Hill Gods" by DanosongsCONTACT USAsher on Archive of Our Own: @dasheryAsher on Twitter:  @asherdasheryShojo & Tell on Twitter, Tumblr, and InstagramAshley on Twitter: @AshMcD00

Titles in the series (100)

A manga discussion podcast focusing on shojo (and josei!) series that make your heart go doki-doki. Covering classics like CLAMP’s “Cardcaptor Sakura” and Yuu Watase’s “Fushigi Yuugi” to newer favorites like Kazune Kawahara’s “My Love Story!!” and Hiro Fujiwara’s “Maid Sama!” Shojo & Tell host Ashley McDonnell discusses one series per episode with a rotating shojo superfan. (And sometimes, a shoujo superfan.) Shojo [or shoujo] manga: Japanese comics made for young women. A breath of fresh air after reading 72 volumes of “Naruto.” The underappreciated sibling of all those same-y never-ending shonen titles.
