Get our unfiltered manga hot takes, on-the-ground convention reports, movie reviews, and dive deep with our Monthly Book Club. Whether it's the slick action of Lupin III or the profound soul-searching of Vagabond, if it's a story with pulse, we've covered it. Your weekly dose of glorious uncertainty starts here.
