Black Lives Matter.  Manga Mavericks stands in support of Black Americans and against the systemic racism and violence perpetrated by the police and the U.S. government.  There are many ways to help the Black Lives Matter movement, be it engaging in the protests yourselves or by donating to those fighting on the front lines. We’ve included links in the description of this podcast for people to learn more about petitions to sign and places to donate. We’ve donated all of our Patreon earnings from this year and hundreds of our own dollars to Bail Funds and Charities supporting progressive movements for change across the country, and if you can give, we strongly encourage you to do so. Otherwise, you can even watch videos donating all their ad money to charities too. Again, there are many ways to help, and every bit counts. To quote a great moment from The Boondocks: "What do you do when you can't do nothing, but there's nothing you can do?" "You do what you can."  In that spirit, we’re also supporting and amplifying Black creatives in our community. We’ll be leaving links to them and their work, and links of where to find other great Black creatives doing great work in this community. Please check all these fine folks out. We’ll also be leaving links to organizations, charities, and petitions to help support Black Lives Matter protests and victims of police brutality.  There’s another tragic bit of news we also must address: Zac Bertschy passed away on the week of May 19th, 2020. Zac was the executive editor in chief at Anime News Network, overseeing its editorial department. He was the host of ANNcast, the writer of Vice and Luna, and the original Answerman. He was always, in my eyes, the face, voice, and heart of Anime News Network. We’ll be leaving links to various people’s tributes and memories of Zac, including the final ANNcast, and links to some of the work of his I really appreciated over the years, including Answerman, ANNcast, Vice & Luna, his reviews of Death Parade and Keep Your Hands off Eizouken, and many others.   There’s so much to say about Zac Bertschy and the legacy he’s left. But right now, there’s just one thing that I must say: Rest in Peace, Zac. See you over the rainbow. This is a news episode that was delayed and made sort of out of date because of the above stories and others that happened almost immediately after we recorded it in mid-May. Please keep that in mind as you listen through that there’s a lot of parts re-recorded or added on after the fact. That said, we had a lot to cover, including the endings of some popular series, new license announcements, COVID-related delays, Netflix additions, and the titular question on everyone’s mind: Who Did Sesshomaru FUCK?! There’s plenty of news we don’t cover in this episode we’ll get to in a future installment, but it’s good to break these things up anyway lest we have another four-hour long podcast. You can be sure that this will also not be the last time we discuss Black Lives Matter and have conversations on important political and social topics on the show either. What’s going on matters way more than any of the manga we talk about, so while we hope to entertain with our podcast, we also want to make sure we don’t distract from what’s going on in the world and are amplifying voices and causes that matter.  Please visit the webpage of this podcast for the list of links we included in this post: http://all-comic.com/2020/manga-mavericks-ep-121-who-did-sesshomaru-fck PODCAST BREAKDOWN: 00:00 - Black Lives Matter 03:35 - Community Shout-Outs: Black Creatives in our Community You Should Follow 14:14 - Intro & Patron Thank You News: 16:05 - New York Times May List 17:20 - April Bookscan list  22:44 - Demon Slayer’s Ending, Spinoffs, & Circulation Numbers 28:36 - Yuuna of the Haunted Hot Springs ends  30:02 - Bunta Kinami’s RWBY: The Official Manga ends  32:04 - Hinamatsuri ends on July 15th 32:45  - Oda’s One Piece update  34:57 - Boichi will draw an adaptation of One Piece: Ace novels  37:11 - Possible future Shonen Jump delays  39:18 - Golgo 13 goes on its first hiatus in 52 years due to COVID concerns 40:30 - Atsushi Okubo mentions that Fire Force is in its final stretch  41:22 - Akiko Higashimura’s new manga  42:27 - Ryoichi Ikegami’s new manga 43:27 - Fruits Basket The Three Musketeers arc manga launches 2nd season 44:08 - Yen Press will simulpub Fruits Basket: The Three Musketeers & Fruits Basket Another chapter 13  44:33 - Yen Press Star Wars licenses 46:18 - Jujutsu Kaisen & Demon Slayer Gaps Filled in Shonen Jump Vault 48:11 - Kodansha & Vertical release manga digitally on InkyPen  49:03 - Kodansha Comics licenses new manga for digital debut in June  54:36 - Kodansha drops Drops of God volume 12-22 on Comixology  55:38 - Cross Infinite World licenses Hello I Am a Witch and My Crush Wants Me to Make a Love Potion novels 56:40 - Drawn & Quarterly to Publish Yoshiharu Tsuge's Red Flowers, Shigeru Mizuki's Tono Monogatari Manga 59:57 -  New Seven Seas licenses 1:15:00 - Tentai Books licenses 1:18:48 - Manga Planet licenses 11 new cat manga  1:24:44 - New Futekiya licenses  1:26:26  - Manga Rock shuts down with launch of INKR comics 1:28:16 - Former Viz exec moves to Netflix  1:28:50 - New Crunchyroll J-APAC Content Strategy Head 1:29:27 - Con cancellations & Virtual Cons 1:32:40 - Anime postponements 1:35:03 - New Prince of Tennis anime 1:36:06 - New InuYasha sequel series: Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon 1:42:48 - Hollywood’s Gatchaman film will tell an “original story”  1:43:44 - Sony developing One-Punch Man film with Venom writers  1:49:35 - Kingdom Live-Action film gets sequel  1:49:56 -  Netflix’s Cowboy Bebop remake is already planning its second season 1:51:07 - Netflix Anime Announcements 1:53:47 - One Piece dub resumes  1:54:31 - Crunchyroll dubs resume  1:55:05 - Crunchyroll adds City Hunter  1:55:33 - Discotek licenses 1:58:36 - Shonen Jump Vault Opens Up Free Chapters Every Friday  1:59:21 - Shonen Jump+ Contest 2:00:07 - Tezuka Manga Award  2:02:17 - Goo’s Top 10 Shonen Sunday manga list  2:15:02 - Community Shout-Out: Anime Lockdown 2:16:37 - Wrap-Up 2:23:55 - In Memoriam: Zac Bertschy Enjoy the show, and follow us on twitter at @manga_mavericks, on tumblr at mangamavericks.tumblr.com, and on Youtube!

After a soul-crushing two weeks, we return for an episode of mostly news. We say a few belated words on the passing of ANN co-creator Zac Bertschy. We talk about the change of studio for the final season of Attack on Titan. Then the talk lightens as we discuss anime merchandise tie ins, the more ridiculous the better. Are you pro or nah Char-dines? Even in these dark times we can’t stay mired in dismay forever. Cabin fever and delayed shipping aside... we have some recommendations for you. Stay safe, stay well, we stand with you.

The English-speaking anime community suffered a major loss on May 21, 2020 with the death of Zac Bertschy. Zac was a major influence on the formation of Busted Limes, so we decided to record a short tribute to the man.

In Memory of Zac Bertschy The morning of May 22 seemed like any other morning, at first glance. Just a simple day in our new normal, nothing too out of the ordinary. And then the word broke that Zac Bertschy from Anime News Network had passed away. Without the groundwork that had been laid in for ANN and programs like the ANNCast, a show such as this would never have been made into reality, and we join his friends, family, and colleagues in mourning over his passing. An incredible member of the anime community is no longer with us, but his spirit will continue to live on, be it through polarizing honesty or sharing a love of riffing terrible B-movies to survive through. “Someday we’ll find it – that rainbow connection.

Lukujonossa ovat tällä kertaa uusi Death Note -lyhäri sekä synkkä psykologinen BL-jännäri Heartless. --- - Stan 08:23 – HAMPAANKOLOSSA - VampireNaomin blogi - Postaus siitä, miten Saksan mangakustantajat ilmoittavat lisensseistään aikataulun mukaan - Postaus Saksan Tokyopopin ongelmista 11:31 – KUUNTELIJAKOMMENTTEJA - The Quintessential Quintuplets 14:12 – MY HERO ACADEMIAN HAHMONNIMIKOHU - Kyudai Garaki - Yksikkö 731 - ANN: My Hero Academia Character Gets Name Change Following Controversy - ANN: My Hero Academia Manga, Anime Removed from Chinese Digital Platforms - Kiinalaiset twiittasivat kuvia revityistä pokkareista (kuva) - Shonen Jump julkaisi virallisen anteeksipyynnön viidellä kielellä - Spekulaatiota siitä, että hahmon nimen oli tarkoitus olla piilotettu vitsi liittyen Waita Uzigan nimeen - Mai-chan's Daily Life 25:54 – NETFLIXIN ONE PIECE -SARJA - ANN: Netflix to Stream One Piece Live-Action Series - Virallinen Twitter-tili @onepiecenetflix - Netflixin Death Note -elokuva - Now I'm Behind You (kuva) - Dragonball: Evolution - ANN:n Zac Bertschy vinoilee kyynisesti 36:34 – KOHSKEN TERVEYDENTILA (JA SE MIKSI AINA SAA HÄVETÄ) - Kohske - Gangsta - Kohske kertoi Twitterissä, että hänellä on lupus - Kohske twiittailee kuvia itsestään sairasvuoteelta - Kohske twiittailee ärsyyntyneenä olevansa sairaalassa (Twiitti 1, twiitti 2) - Kohske twiittailee ärsyyntymisestään piratismiin - Kohske twiittailee ärsyyntymisestään piratismin puolusteluun - Erotiikkamangaa piirtävän Samemanman tapaus (kuva 1, kuva 2, kuva 3) - Hiro Mashima - Yana Toboso 45:38 – THE CASE STUDY OF VANITAS: YLEISESTI - The Case Study of Vanitas - Jun Mochizuki - Pandora Hearts - Maaretin arvostelu sarjasta Anime-lehden numerossa 5/2017 (kuva) - Vanitasin kirja (kuva) 50:57 – THE CASE STUDY OF VANITAS: MAAILMANRAKENNUS - Vampyyrit eivät tarvitse verta (kuva) - Altus, toinen maailma (kuva) - Olemme vaihtoehtomenneisyydessä, joten Eiffelin tornia ei rakennettu (kuva) - Kilpaileva ehdotus, Auringon torni - Sarja sijoittuu Ranskaan, joten vampyyrit ovat “vanpiiru“ eivätkä “vanpaia“ - Kreivi Parks Orlok (kuva) 58:33 – THE CASE STUDY OF VANITAS: CHARLATAN JA KIROUKSET - Malnomenit ja kirouksen puhkeaminen (kuva) - Charlatanin paraati (kuva) - Naenia (kuva) 01:05:05 – THE CASE STUDY OF VANITAS: NOÉ JA VANITAS - Noé (kuva) - Noé vakavana (kuva) - Vanitas (kuva) - Vanitas kamalana (kuva) - Minä en auta sinua, vaan sinä autat minua (kuva) - Olen valmis tulemaan ympäripuhutuksi tässä asiassa (kuva) - Vanitasin itsetuhoista käytöstä (kuva) - Vanitas unohtaa hetkeksi, että itsetuhoisuus pitää piilottaa ällöjäbän roolin alle (kuva) - Jeanne pelastaa Vanitasin hengen väkisin (kuva) - Seksikkäät verenjuontikohtaukset (kuva) - Murr, Noén kissa joka vihaa kaikkea (kuva) - Noé potkii asioita paljon (kuva) 01:30:59 – THE CASE STUDY OF VANITAS: MUUT HAHMOT - Jeanne (kuva) - Dominique (kuva) - Noén kasvatti-isä, maailman pahiskoodatuin hahmo (kuva) - Roland (kuva) - Chloé (kuva) - Dampyyrit (kuva) 01:45:50 – THE CASE STUDY OF VANITAS: TAIDE JA KUVAKERRONTA - Hahmo näytetään ensin kaukaa ja sitten lähempää samassa asennossa (kuva) - Vanitasin vaatteet (kuva) - Noén vaatteet (kuva) - Vanitas-maalaukset - Edellisen estetiikalla leikittelyä (kuva) 01:51:21 – THE CASE STUDY OF VANITAS: NIMESTÄ JA RAKENTEESTA - Sarjan nimestä ja sen kaksoismerkityksestä - Gévaudanin peto 02:00:06 – THE CASE STUDY OF VANITAS: JULKAISU - Yen Pressin ääniefektityyli (kuva) - Huuto joka on käännetty viereen, koska teksti on käsinpiirrettyä eikä koneella ladottua (kuva) - Toinen esimerkki edellisestä (kuva) 02:07:03 – THE CASE STUDY OF VANITAS: SPOILERIOSIO - Keskustelu pokkarissa 4 (kuva) - Keskustelu pokkarin 6 takaumassa (kuva) 02:12:46 – THE CASE STUDY OF VANITAS: YHTEENVETO - Jakso 16, jossa puhuimme Takane & Hanasta 02:14:29 – LUKUJONOSSA: UUSI DEATH NOTE -LYHÄRI  - Uusi Death Note -lyhäri Manga Plussassa - Jakso 14, jossa puhuimme Shonen Jumpin editorikäytännöistä 02:25:46 – LUKUJONOSSA: HEARTLESS - Heartless - Opera-lehti - Resident Evil: Marhawa Desire - Incubus ja sen rivon realistiset lepakonsiivet (kuva) - Incubuksen viettelys kohteen näkökulmasta (kuva) - Incubuksella ei ole kykyä auttaa Manuelia sen henkisessä traumassa, mutta yrittää kuitenkin parhaansa mukaan huolehtia siitä (kuva) 02:39:18 – LOPETUS

Hosts: Evan "Vampt Vo" Minto, Zac Bertschy, Sean Russell Topic: The Anime News Network's editorial choice to cover fansubbed anime in their Fall Preview Guide To wash down our long discussion of digital distribution last episode, this time we've got an interview with Zac Bertschy, Executive Editor at the Anime News Network, about a related topic: fansubs. Specifically, my questions revolved around ANN's choice to cover anime that has not been licensed or legally released in America in their Preview Guide a decision which necessitates the use by ANN's paid writers of illegally distributed fansubs. Sean Russell of Anime 3000 kindly recorded the discussion and contributed some of his own thoughts as well. If you've got an opinion on the issue, don't be afraid to let us know in the comments section or through email. Next episode I'll probably post something that I recorded at New York Anime Festival: either the Yoshiyuki Tomino Question & Answer session or a brief podcast episode with Erin and Noah of the Ninja Consultant Podcast.

Hosts: Evan "Vampt Vo" Minto, Mitchell "MitchyD" Dyer, and Patz Topic: Digital Distribution [This episode is NOT censored for swear words or sexual references. Listen at your own risk.] We're back after another whole month between episodes, this time with a big, fat discussion of digital distribution (in terms of both anime and games), featuring none other than The Gaming Dungeon's very own Patz! Mitchy is along for the ride too, discussing his love affair with Steam and his burning hatred of moe shows. This show is a little longer than usual, and my track had some volume balancing trouble, so I apologize for that. Anyway, next episode should actually be out very, very soon, since it's a quick discussion between the Anime News Network's Zac Bertschy, Anime 3000's Sean Russell, and me about fansub reviewing policies that needs to be up on the Internet while it's still relevant to the debate. Look out for that within the next week or so.
