Our InuYasha retrospective and Manga Fight have been very well received and we couldn't be happier! We got more four times the likes on the Retrospective on tumblr than we have on all the other Manga Mavericks episodes combined! Thank you all for your comments and enthusiasm! We hope to make more retrospective and Manga Fights like those in the future, so stay tuned to our brand-spanking new twitter account for future updates on the show!

On this week's Manga Mavericks, Colton and Sid spend a good hour discussing their new favorite manga, Ajin: Demi-Human, a thought-provoking and introspective series about humanity, morality, and mortality that also happens to be one of the most badass action series currently-running. Other topics of discussion include the recent Jump Starts Spring Weapon No. 01 and RWBY, how Weekly Shonen Sunday can compete with Jump and Magazine, whether Keijo!!!!!!!! is actually worth watching, and a whole lot more!
