Both Jordan and I took some time for ourselves, it's been a hectic year for both of us, especially me. By May we should be back to regular uploads. In this episode we had a guest by the name of Prince Rose, where he cover the life lessons found in Demon Slayer, and attempt to end the debate on whether Demon Slayer is a good anime or not. More specifically why is it so good, as we hone in on one of the central themes in the series; Hurt people, hurt people. Hope you guys enjoy!

Vinland Saga's Askeladd is regarded the most loved and controversial character in the series. As much as he is regarded is a prolific leader in the series, even after he died. In this conversation with Jordan, I point out similarities between Askeladd and Hero Academia's All Might, in that they are poor leaders. Even more so, we discuss Deku's, from Hero Academia, how he is a much better leader than either Askeladd or All Might. We discuss how Deku's style of leadership is necessary to lead in a family, and for a community as opposed to All Might and Askeladd.

In this episode I speak about the journey Deb and I have gone through as a newly married couple, and compare it to Loid's Forger family. The struggles of what it means to start your own family, as well as the struggles that both men and women go through when starting their own family, from an African and Caribbean lens, with my cohost Jordan.

"Morality doesn't exist in scarcity" the story of Edgerunner's David Martinez and Mob, from Mob Psycho 100, both share a journey of their lives being defined by an single aspect of who they are. However unlike, Mob who continued to redefine himself beyond his psychic powers. David's circumstances forced him to solely relied upon his psychological resistance to cybernetics to make a name for himself in Night City. David would soon quickly learn, after confronting Adam Smasher, and succumbing to Cyberpsychosis, that he isn't "special" as he thought he was, something that we all come to realize at some point in our lives; there will always be someone better than you. Jordan and I talk about what it means to not be as "special" as you think you are, and how we redefined ourselves over the courses of our own lives.

Jordan and I explore the idea of change, found in Mob Psycho 100, and how we we relate to Mob's journey of self-development. We share our stories on how we both have changed over the years, how we react to changes in others. Also, similar to Mob's relationship with Reigen, how people in our lives, react to how we have changed and grown over the years. As well as what does change and growth even look like for people, and how much of who we are can even change. All this and much more....

Sorry for the long wait, but this was an episode I was excited to record. Rock Lee and Deku ae two of some of my most favorite anime characters. Their similar journeys they went through, despite being born with their in-world deficits, mirrored my own challenges growing up with a Learning Disability. Along with their respective relationships with their Sensei's, All Might and Might Gai, mirror very much the relationship with my dad. In this episode we discuss how my journey mirrored Rock Lee and Deku's, and how they influenced how diligent I've become in accomplishing my tasks. As well as the resilience to overcome the inevitable adversities and losses you face in life. Hope you all enjoy!
