Episode 45 - Gokurakugai by Yuto Sano
The Trouble Shooter agency doesn't just solve problems—they OBLITERATE them! Join us as we dive into Yuto Sano's adrenaline-pumping world of "Gokurakugai," where monster hunting isn't just a job, it's an art form.
This week, Mat is joined once again by Lea to dissect what some consider to be the next big Shonen series! We'll be unpacking: the jaw-dropping artwork that leaps off every page, it's excellent characters and how in almost every frame, we see a flicker of classic shonen woven into Sano's vision (for better and worse...)
We ask ourselves is "Gokurakugai" destined for shonen superstardom? Or will its familiar elements prevent it from claiming the title of 'the next big thing'?
**CONTENT WARNING:** Though not explicit, this episode touches on trafficking, exploitation, and sexual themes. Listener discretion advised.
Thanks to Juliano Zucareli for our theme music!
