Covering: Gamera the Brave
We did it! We watched all twelve Gamera movies in twelve months! And the last one is also pretty good! We have some additional Gamera clean-up to do in the coming months, but Turtle Tea Time itself has concluded as planned.

We finish off Andro Melos and surprise, surprise it was a whole lot of nothing with some funny aspects here and there. However, our brief look at the manga gives us the important lore details we've been craving.

We dip into our first forays into the Ultraman hiatus years with a curious series about some kind of space cops made with zero money starring a guy who is transparently based off another guy's manga OC despite also being a different guy.

Covering: Golden Kamuy volumes 22 to 26
Our penultimate Kamuy pod ends up becoming our longest podcast ever (and likely for some time) as everyone finds out how much you can and can't come back home upon return to Hokkaido and the pieces (including some new ones on the board!) begin moving in place as the manga heads towards its finale. Meanwhile, both Red and Mel brought more than usual for the first half of the pod.

Ultraman 80 comes to close, and appropriately enough for this show, it's a pretty low-key ending compared to what has come before. Given everything, how do we feel about the show as a whole? And what is up with that cameo in the last episode?
