Nice review :)
I'm a fan of Ninja Consultant and I feel Manga Recon is a bit more of my style. Direct, informative, and a dash of light humor.
Bah Toyko Boys and Girls :P Being a male reading this...what could i expect?

I also wanted to comment on NinjaConsultant ep 10.
I have mostly enjoyed your podcasts prior to this one but it seems the show has followed the strayed path similar to Naruto the anime... FILLERS...

Thanks

Aw, come on, in episode 10 we talk to an actual ninja!

I read volume 2 of Tokyo Boys & Girls. It was still annoying and fluffy, and I like shojou...

Glad you like Manga Recon! I keep telling Noah we need more actual content, but he doesn't believe me.

lol
Not to be disrepectful, but your actual ninja is from Oregan. Although I'm sure he could menacely disassemble my body, I feel forced to make an analogy. Parmigiana from china?
I'm just joking... No serious damage intended by that. (plz dont come to my house ninja)

BTW... how much do ninjas get paid, since you get paid more?

Also can i request a review? Blade of the Immortal, I feel its under-exposed

I think it's still coming out, actually. It's just really, really slow.

this kind of comment was to be expected...

and "shinobi no bujikan" dont get paid, nor any other "ninja".

in fact ninja never have any money. :)

like the reviews... request? "X-day" it was really short(2 volumes), sad, and depressing.

Never heard of X-Day, but I will look around for it!

I've only read the first volume of the Naruto manga. It's very daunting, especially since I don't like to read manga on my computer.

I am at least 3-4 volumes behind on Blade of the Immortal (behind the American release), but I will give the more recent issues a read at some point!

There are so many splash pages, it only takes about 15 minutes to read, anyway.

What was the song that was played before the first review?

"♥Lonely in Gorgeous♥" by Tommy february6, the opening theme of the "Paradise Kiss" anime.

There's a music video for it here - like the band's official video - but it kinda sucks (the video, the song is awesome).
