Episode Notes Ok, we get to learn why Kiruko says he is a man in a woman's body and it's probably not what you think. Also babies have faces, right? RIGHT?

Episode Notes Look at me, trying a new format for the show notes: a paragraph. We discuss episode 2, but before that, I apologize for not taking everyone seriously about Oshi No Ko. Have you watched the first episode yet? You probably should.  In this episode we get our first look at the opening animation and it is glorious. Lots of things happen this episode. We go to a pretty ok farm and kill a man-eater, yay.
