We've had to make some changes this week. The Triple Dip will be pushed back to next week. Instead we're joined by special guests Paula and Haile, two of dakazu's friends! They're here to talk about composing music based on Junji Ito, LGBT representation in manga/anime, and our Manga in Motion pick, the live-action Full Metal Alchemist!
Make sure to check out Paula's awesome webcomic Hoof Fellas and her amazing Spiral song! Also buy Haile's shirts!
