On this episode of Manga Mavericks, Colton & Lum spend most of the time just catching up on the news, including Oricon's list of the top 10 highest selling manga series from the past year (in which case, number 1 WILL surprise you!), as well as some shake ups in the anime/manga industry that may or may not have already happened by the time this episode has been released. We also talk about some new additions to the Shonen Jump app such as new series, Sakamoto Days, as well as one of two new character centric one shots from The Promised Neverland! There is plenty more that our Mavericks discuss, so much more that we had to save some news for next week's episode! So until then, cozy up and brace yourselves for the winter season, as you listen to your friendly neighborhood Mavericks. <3
