Emma Dreams of Stars / Kaiju No. 8

Emma Dreams of Stars / Kaiju No. 8

Author: Taiiku Podcast January 13, 2022 Duration: 31:13
I've been trying to follow hockey more, and it is regrettable that the Los Angeles Kings are lame and the Chicago team is both racist and a hot mess off the ice. The Chicago thing happened after I made the decision on a team, and that team is the Seattle Kraken. I regret to inform the rabid fans of my sports updates before podcast notes that this team is not good, but I love them. This episode, we're talking about Emmanuelle Maisonneuve (story), Julia Pavlowitch (story), and Kan Takahama's (art) Emma Dreams of Stars published by Vertical and Kodansha. Then we talk about Naoya Matsumoto" Kaiju No. 8 published by Viz. Emma Dreams of Stars credits: Editor: Michelle Lin Translator: Eamon Fogarty Production: Grace Lu and Anthony Quintessenza Proofreading: Micah Q. Allen Kaiju No. 8 credits: Translation: David Evelyn Lettering: Brandon Bovia (New year, new show notes. I'm going to be adding in-book [or in the case of Kaiju No. 8 and anything else like that, whatever they put in the Jump digital publication] credits here.) 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. We mentioned a Michelin star restaurant review thread, but I also found out that she did a formal write up on The Everywhereist as well. Listen Show notes: 0:58 - We talk about Emma Dreams of Stars 15:36 - We talk about Kaiju No. 8 Next time is Thermae Romae and The Savior's Book Cafe Story in Another World.

Every three weeks, the hosts of Manga in Your Ears-Kory, Helen, and Apryll-settle in for a conversation that bridges the classic and the contemporary. Their format is straightforward but deeply engaging: they dive into one manga series that has already reached its conclusion, offering a full perspective on its story and impact. Then, they shift to discuss a different series that is either freshly finished or still unfolding in real time, capturing the immediate excitement of ongoing publication. This dual focus creates a unique rhythm, allowing for thoughtful retrospectives alongside the lively speculation that comes with following current releases. The discussions feel less like formal reviews and more like the kind of talk you’d have with friends who share a deep passion for the medium, dissecting character arcs, artistic choices, and narrative twists. Produced by Taiiku Podcast, this series sits comfortably at the intersection of Arts and Books, designed for anyone who appreciates the depth and diversity of manga storytelling. Tuning into this podcast is like getting a curated, bi-monthly guide to what’s worth reading, from timeless titles you might have missed to the latest chapters everyone is talking about.
