Baseball is finally back! Opening day happened, and several games were snowed out because the weather is ridiculous and unstoppable. The White Sox were, until recently, undefeated after come-from-behind victories against the hated Kansas City Royals, so it’s been ok until they went to Canada.
This episode, we’re talking about Yukito Kishiro’s Battle Angel Alita and Mitsuru Kubo’s Again!!, both published by Kodansha.
That song you heard is “Bodysnatchers” by Radiohead, which was apparently used in some Battle Angel Alita anime as an opening?
As always, you can find me on Twitter @ImpassionateK, and my co-hosts Helen (@WanderinDreamr) and Apryll (@manjiorin) on Twitter at those places in the parenthesis. You can find both of their writing at The Organization of Anti-Social Geniuses, more of Helen’s writing at Narrative Investigations, and my writing at the Fandom Post.
