In the 89th episode of the Spiraken Manga Review Podcast, Xan reviews a manga adaptation of the Kyoichi Katayama novel, Sekai no Chushin de, Ai o Sakebu (Crying Out Love, In The Center Of The World) which is entitled , Socrates In Love by Kazumi Kazui
Xan debates over the strength of this manga over its novel counterpart. He also reads an email, explains the awesomeness that is Bioshock 2 and talks a little bit about the Design-A-Logo Contest. One thing that Xan forgot to mention is that the song inspired by this manga is slightly irrating due to the singer sniffling through the entire song. Very Annoying. Remember to check out Xan's Appearance on Fightbait.com's podcast as well as play against him in Bioshock 2 on xbox live
