Urasawa Boys is BACK and there's no time to mourn for Gesicht! Just like that, we're in Australia! Tune in for some heated discussion of the story's pivot to Epsilon's turn in the spotlight, and all of its ups-and-downs. We tackle an opening flashback that may be one of the best to ever do it, and then dig into a volume full of loaded metaphors on queerness (Happy Pride!) along with some pretty sick robot fights. What's that? A typo in the episode description? No no no, you're mistaken, we just had to re-award the title of Best Boy with the sudden arrival of Hogan - who is definitely not a Poochie! Join us for what is somehow the penultimate reading for our season on Pluto, as we bask in the splendor of Epsilon's dying light! Folks, it's a good one!
