Naoki Urasawa's works are known by many to be one of the most consistent, engaging, and top-notch manga you can find in the medium. This week, the boys put that claim to the test as they review one of his most prolific works: "20th Century Boys".
Also, the boys critique the internet's hottest conspiracy theories, and more!

Winter 2025 is well underway, and the boys have been watching (mostly) everything the current season of anime has to offer. What's good? What's bad? What's mid? Stay tuned and find out!
Also, do titles ruin stories, Pokémon lives rent-free in the minds (and hearts) of many, the boys contemplate the inner, psychological complexities of 50% robot, 50% cop, and more!
