The Muscle Girl Next Door / My Master Has No Tail

The Muscle Girl Next Door / My Master Has No Tail

Author: Taiiku Podcast October 15, 2022 Duration: 23:18
All I want this MLB postseason is for the Guardians to lose, the Astros to lose, and the baseball team in Atlanta to lose. I have separate rooting interests in the positive direction (lifelong Mariners fan here), but mostly I'm rooting for the cheaters, the racists, and the team that bullied the White Sox all season to lose. This episode, our older series is Amesuke Ano's The Muscle Girl Next Door published by Seven Seas. And our newer series is TNSK's My Master Has No Tail published by Kodansha. Support the workers’ of Seven Seas effort to unionize on Twitter and on their website. The Muscle Girl Next Door credits: Translation: Miki ZLettering: Lys BlakesleeCover design: H.

As always, you can find me on Twitter @taiikumenco, 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 and Awko Tako.

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.
