In this episode we return to discussing Tojima Tanzaburo Wants to Be a Kamen Rider, focusing on what the series' villains (Shocker) iconography is all about, what we learned by talking about the series with our Japanese guest Penguin, and why anime and manga can be such powerful sites of connection for otaku and other fans. Is it Kamen Rider Kuga or Cougar? Find out or just take a side! Ridaaaaaaaa! Ottack!
...........................................................................................
Join us to explore and dig deep into the world of anime and manga as well as the history and culture behind them through our distinct perspectives as a born-and-raised Japanese non-otaku and 30+ year American anime otaku! Get to know more about Japan and Japanese words from anime/manga at the end of each episode. (episodes may contain spoilers)
