Podcasts about Manga

It is our year-end episode, celebrating the absolute greatness of comics and manga with our favorite books of 2025 from across the industry; DC Comics, Image Comics, Marvel Comics, Dark Horse Comics, IDW, Kodansha, Viz, Rebellion and many more.  It was an incredible year packed with standout books, so each co-host narrowed it down to their top 10 favorite comics … although one co-host may have sneakily cheated and brought 12 to the table.  From super-heroes to sci-fi, fantasy, horror and everything in between, this episode is a love letter to comics in 2025.

Comment attirer dans les musées un public plus jeune ? Guimet, le musée des arts asiatiques à Paris, a trouvé une bonne idée : faire dialoguer ses collections avec un objet de pop culture par excellence. En l'occurrence, les mangas, les bandes dessinées japonaises. L'exposition, qui s'y tient actuellement jusqu'au 9 mars 2026, s'intitule « Manga, tout un art ! ». Le manga « c'est une pop culture qui n'a pas d'équivalent », précise Didier Pasamonik, l'un des commissaires de l'exposition. « Si on prend, en termes de vente, One Piece c'est 550 millions d'exemplaires, Tintin c'est 250 millions et Astérix doit être à 325 millions. On est vraiment sur des chiffres énormes. Et surtout, il s'agit de 1 118 épisodes de One Piece, en face il y a combien d'Astérix ? », ajoute-t-il. Des rouleaux anciens des monastères bouddhiques, préhistoire du geste du dessin japonais, jusqu'au triomphe des séries modernes, le musée Guimet fait dialoguer ses collections avec des centaines de planches d'auteurs majeurs. Le manga, proprement dit, naît à la fin du XIXᵉ siècle, avec l'ouverture du Japon à l'influence occidentale. « Rakuten Kitazawa, qui est en fait le premier mangaka professionnel, est directement influencé par la bande dessinée occidentale. Les mangas n'existent que quand une tradition du dessin et de la narration japonaise rencontre l'Occident. Rakuten Kitazawa va publier notamment une revue qui s'appelle Jiji Manga et qui va faire rentrer le mot manga pour la première fois dans un sens bande dessinée. Manga veut dire dessin libre, croquis », raconte le commissaire d'exposition.  À lire aussiLe Japon veut quadrupler les exportations de ses mangas, dessins animés et jeux vidéo Les non-initiés et les amateurs du genre pourront admirer de nombreuses planches originales, dont celles du maître Osamu Tezuka, qui a révolutionné le manga au lendemain de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. « Tezuka n'est pas nommé le dieu des mangas pour rien. Il est à la fois un dessinateur extrêmement productif, puisqu'il va dessiner 150 000 planches, mais en même temps c'est le premier à faire des dessins animés qui ont une portée internationale, puisque Astro Boy en 1963 va être diffusé aux États-Unis. Et là ça devient le modèle d'une production qui se pense comme un film, un objet de marchandising, d'adaptation au théâtre », explique Didier Pasamonik. Pour l'occasion, le musée expose à titre exceptionnel sa « Joconde »: La grande vague de Kanagawa, une des deux estampes d'Hokusai en sa possession, un chef-d'œuvre présenté en vis-à-vis de planches de bandes dessinées franco-belges qui lui rendent hommage.  À lire aussiLe manga sous toutes ses coutures: au Japon comme en France, en livre comme en animé

Japan is often described as having “spirituality without religion”, but what does that actually mean? In this episode, author Hiroko Yoda joins the Krewe to break down how spirituality quietly shapes everyday life in Japan, from nature and kami to shrines, folklore, and even anime.

0:00: Justin talks about diving into the Kingdom experience while Helen’s just ready to talk about the news that happened over the past two weeks. A good amount of news happened! News 5:17: The two hosts discuss two pieces of AI dubbing news, one involving voice actors in Japan, and the other one intending to use AI in anime production and needless to say, it’s not looking great! 10:12: Both Helen and Justin wonder about TOHO and how big a player they’ll become in the anime industry following their acquisition of Anime Limited from PLAION PICTURES. 14:03: So yes, unless an actual acquisition happens, it’s safe to say TheOASG Podcast will not talk about Warner Bros. Discovery unless a deal actually goes through or is stopped after Paramount’s hostile bid was, in the end, rejected; If you’ve been watching certain anime for free with ads on Crunchyroll, you won’t be doing so anymore in 2026, as they’re going to end their free ad-supported service. 18:53: Ammitsu’s Gazing at the Star Next Door's on hiatus until Spring as the creator preps the new arc; Rumi Ichinohe’s I See Your Face, Turned Away recently seemed to come back after a long hiatus, and it’s gonna end in the next chapter; and Boichi’s The Marshal King will go on hiatus for an undisclosed reason. 22:17: Also sort of weird — after a long time, Yona of the Dawn, which just saw its manga end, announced there will be a sequel to the anime. Sure took its time! 26:05: And in final news of the episode, the two hosts send their condolences to the friends and family of long-time voice actor voice actor Tomomichi Nishimura, who died on November 29 at 79. Licenses 28:08: US companies had to end the year with some licenses, and we got a decent amount, starting with Yen Press: Chika Tōjō's Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury—Vanadis Heart Ema Okadachi, otori, & Kou Kusaka's A Timid Lady was Turned into an Ugly Cat, but on the Verge of Fainting Is Picked Up by the Most Fearsome Military Duke Chitose Kaido's Thank You for Taking Care of Our Boy Banri Yūya Sakamoto's The Daughter of the Demon Lord is Too Kind!

It’s the End of the World!  rarutori, Ciavis, & Kō Narita’s High Elf with a Long Life manga Mizunomoto’s When I Was Reincarnated in Another World, I Was a Heroine and He Was a Hero The two then get into discussing which title they prefer that was translated into English: Modern Villainess: It’s Not Easy Building a Corporate Empire Before the Crash or It’s a Little Hard to be a Villainess of an Otome Game in Modern Society. 39:23: We have One Peace Books announcing exclusively on Behind the Manga the following new titles: Senya Mihagi, jaguchi, & Sato Pote’s Lockdown Life with the Class Beauty, Teika, Waka Sanada, & Hamu’s The Delinquent Girl Beside Me Suddenly Dyed Her Hair Black?!, and tera, Hayate Asakura, & Tetta’s The Villainess Who Came to Marry Into the Frontier Noble’s Household Is an Exceptionally Capable Wife, Isn’t She?; Hanashi Media announced a brand new license for their LN line; and Inoue’s #Gal x Gal Yuri manga is now on VIZ Manga. Streaming News 41:16: Part 2 of Rivals of the Great Detective Collection will drop on New Year’s Day, which means Justin has to be hyped about more Detective Conan. He also gets into the final Conan Cinema Saturdays movies, which will end January 3 with the first movie in the long-running franchise. 45:29: Helen then goes out of her way to talk about the Hatsune Miku anime film being the final bit of streaming news this week, only for Justin to remind her that she didn’t talk about Magic Kaito 1412 getting a dub on an obscure service (45:45). Cue much discussion that leads to somehow bringing up Conan, Yaiba, and Kaito Kid in a Cinematic Universe! Weird News 47:27: Helen goes over the strange situation involving physical copies of Higurashi: When They Cry Hou – Hou + having malware, which had MangaGamer having to recall it from stores. 49:50: Now it’s officially official: GAINAX is dead; the Naruto franchise is getting a Konoha land theme park in France; meanwhile a burger chain in Texas now has a Spy x Family burger for people to eat. 56:31: And final weird news for 2025, manga getting an anime years after it ends is unusual but over the past couple years it hasn’t reached the levels of what Psyren and then Iron Wok Jan! have inspired now! Both hosts discuss this unusual trend and also go back in time as to how they each got into these manga respectively!

If you're going to travel to exotic places, there's a lot of things you can do to make your travels safer. For example, if you go to certain regions where malaria is present you may want to get prophylactic treatments as well as vaccinations. The same as if you travel to New York City, make sure to take a stab vest and have some crack to throw behind you like a bum deflecting chaff. Enough helpful stuff, onto the manga.

Spirited Away: Episode 376 - This week on Normies Like Us, we finally step through the tunnel and into the bathhouse as we cover Hayao Miyazaki's beloved animated masterpiece, Spirited Away. For many, it's a childhood classic; for others, it's their first trip into the wonderfully strange world of Studio Ghibli. Either way, we're watching it with fresh eyes and very normal expectations.

In this special episode of Novel Spirits, the boys celebrate the holiday season with another great, humorous session of camaraderie:The votes were in for the Battle of the Genres, revealing our first, unanimous victor. And we reviewed 'The Last Christmas' by Gerry Duggan, a very Deadpool-ish take on a Zombie-filled Christmas - highlighting themes, characters, and artistic style, as always. The drinks were flowing, the boys were rolling, and all-in-all it was just a good time. We even scheduled our next few episodes for you!We also may have mentioned One Piece and AI at some point, but dive into those at your own discretion.

Dairy products may be perceived as 'much-loved by uninspiring' in some quarters, but there's plenty of work being done to change the category's image. In this episode of the Food Matters Live podcast, recorded at our Dublin event, we discover how it's being transformed through the prism seven consumer lifestyle pathways. We learn about communal dining trends driving butter and cheese boards across Gen Z, and "prejuvenation" - where 20-somethings obsess over aging and drive collagen-infused dairy innovation. And there is a GLP-1 angle. As appetite suppressors change how people experience food, dairy is leaning into sensory innovation - texture (yogurts with three different textures in one pot), olfactory cues (fragrance as a purchase driver in Chinese RTD teas), and maximalist joy.  From milk manga comics revealed as Japanese schoolchildren empty their bottles, to Velveeta's unapologetic 100-year celebration with nail polish and candles, dairy's future isn't about being healthy and boring - it's about nutrient density delivered with color, fun, and connection.

Tonight on the GeekNights Book Club, we discuss Jacqueline Harpman's phenomenal I Who Have Never Known Men.I Who Have Never Known Men by Jacqueline Harpman is a dystopian sci-fi novel. It was originally written in French and published in 1995. It was not very well known until recently it surged in popularity.This renewed interest in the book is not unfounded. Although it is only thirty years old, I was convinced it was at least twenty years older. It reads much like the foundational dystopian sci-fi novels like 1984, Fahrenheit 451, or Brave New World.It tells the story of a woman who has lived her entire life in a prison. She has no memory of anything else. In the prison cell are only women. The other women do remember life before the prison, but nothing else. They don't know why they are there, and assume they will never be let out. From that point, various events begin to unfold.Related LinksForum ThreadBook Club: I Who Have Never Known MenDiscord ChatBook Club: I Who Have Never Known MenBluesky PostBook Club: I Who Have Never Known Men

We think we're onto some real good panel ideas. We've been thinking that we should do a nice maple veneer over plywood. Perhaps a nice natural hard wax to really bring out the grain and give a comfy cabin feel. Perhaps some rough hewn pine to bracket the windows would compliment it nicely. Of course for convention panel ideas, we're still putting those together. At the very least we have manga to keep things on course. First up is Tim with Trillion Game. We begin at the end of the story, with Hark and Gaku having reached the coveted spot of trillionaires. This causes Gaku to start reflecting on how … Continue reading "Manga Pulse 548: Rooster Game"
