New York City. A veritable melting pot of people, living record of historical events, and... a coven of underground subway witches? Run by different gangs of birds?! The Ravenblack Court is an original Webtoon canvas series created in English by ⁠Adorabirb⁠, comics artist and journalist, and friend of the show! With the manhwa/Webtoon industry growing, more and more original series created in English are being published by these platforms.

Want to learn more about how the process works? Dive into this series with us as we discuss historically significant events, how a creator can draw inspiration for their work, and gleam insight on the Webtoon/digital comics industry with someone who has lived it!

Plus, we have industry news, more recent reading recs, and a teaser at the end of the episode!

What's more dangerous than a psychopathic narcissist prince with a god-complex? How about a a bodyswapping villainess and saintess duo with heavy yuri undertones? What if we mix in some Greek mythos as well? ⁠Your Throne⁠ is one of the darkest, politically rife series we've covered so far, and with us this time we have the return of our guest Wit, moderator from the ⁠⁠R/OtomeIsekai subreddit⁠⁠! Join us as we dive deep into one of the first Webtoons that sucked Marion down the rabbit hole of Romantasy. Though we might have to call it Tragentasy with how dark it gets...

Welcome back to Manga Mavericks @ Movies! The show where we don’t just talk smack about movies, we celebrate them! 

We’re back after (check notes) FOUR YEARS(?!) to talk about the year of film in 2024! It’s been a long time since we’ve done one of these, so you may be wondering why we were so eager to record a podcast about 2024 films than years past. While 2024 was a bad year for most of the world, it was a pretty strong year for entertainment all around, including movies. While it got off to a rough start with movies that didn’t click with audiences and hit at the box office, by the end of the year we got a lot of interesting and entertaining gems that delighted film critics and moviegoing audiences alike. I think that’s why we have an Oscars race this year where you have a lot of films people have seen and are genuinely enthusiastic about, plus Emilia Perez for some reason, and the lack of clear overwhelming favorites like Oppenheimer and Everything, Everywhere, All At Once like the past two years has made the Awards season really competitive, to the point where it’s hard to predict what will win at the Oscars this year, especially in the Best Picture race. Some critics and commentators consider 2024 a weaker year for film than years previous, but personally, this was the most engaged moviegoing year I’ve ever had. This is the first year since I (Lum) started using Letterboxd over a decade ago where I managed to see over 100 movies that came out that year within the year itself! Only time will tell which films will be remembered as part of the canon of great and essential cinema, but as far as I’m concerned, there were plenty of great films that came out in 2024 that I adore and want to explore, so we’re here to discuss them so much more! 

Vlord and I each count down our Top 10 favorite films from 2024, celebrating the films we enjoyed and resonated with the most. Then, we discuss all the films and categories nominated at the 97th Academy Awards, giving our thoughts on the nominations picked for each category and speculating on who the Academy will pick as winners. As someone who has listened to lots of Oscars-related podcasts over the course of this Awards season, I can guarantee you that you won’t find a longer discussion of the Short Film categories on any other film podcasts! So get listen up and listen good to our thoughts on the best and most awarded movies of 2024 (not necessarily the same) in our nearly 4-hour long podcast that’s probably longer than this year’s Oscars ceremony itself! 

Enjoy the show, and follow us on twitter at @manga_mavericks, on Blu Sky at @mangamavericks.bsky.social, and subscribe to us on Youtube. You can follow the hosts on twitter at @LumRanmaYasha and @VLordGTZ.

Is your shed carapace feeling especially lost and empty after the ending of My Hero Academia? Soju has you covered, as JUDER and Hyeong Eun's smash hit Webtoon, "⁠Jungle Juice⁠" flies onto the scene with its iridescent dragonfly wings! Together with special guest ⁠Darfox⁠ of ⁠Manga Machinations⁠, Amber and Marion scuttle into a venomous discussion about super-powered bug-humans fighting to protect society while trying to preserving their own humanity... Actually, it wasn't *that* toxic but we couldn't help but pile on the bug puns, because it's actually quite informative about insects!

It's our first BL! It might have taken 10 episodes, but I don't think it'll take 10 more for the next one! Semantic Error is a fun romance story about a guy who excels within rules and boundaries falling in love with the world's pettiest fusion of drama and libido. Making good on their promise to Deb Aoki from episode 3, Amber and Marion finally understand the hype behind the hit manhwa that was also adapted to live action! Read the series on Manta and preorder the physical edition by Ize Press before artist Angy comes to New York Comic Con this October!

Content Warning: This episode and the series it covers (SSS-Class Revival Hunter) goes into discussion about sensitive topics such as suicide and child starvation.

Hunter assemble! This month we're bringing to you an action series jam-packed with some of the most emotional peaks and valleys we've ever experienced in the Returner/Tower Fantasy genre -- SSS-Class Revival Hunter! What starts as a typical story with a setup akin to Re:Zero ends up unraveling into a masterfully written story about self-actualization, and reining in a Jesus complex before it completely breaks our ML, Confucius Kim. By all means, there were so many things that could have gone wrong in this series, but much like "What It Means To Be You," the level of tact and emotional intelligence in the writing displays a deep understanding and empathy toward the human condition. Join Marion and Amber as they break down what made this Tapas series so special!

Content Warning: This episode and the series it covers (What It Means to Be You) goes into discussion about sensitive topics such as suicide and suicidal ideation, depression/mental illness, domestic abuse, emotional abuse, abortion/miscarriages, and alcoholism. This month we're joined by a new friend: Witlash, mod over at r/OtomeIsekai on Reddit! She brings us some great perspective as a veteran manhwa/webtoon reader who loves romance fantasy! A series like "What It Means To Be You" deserves a finely-toothed comb to go over every just how impactful and engaging it is. The premise? A couple discovers they swap bodies whenever one of them commits suicide. For people concerned about how the heavy subjects are handled, we do have good news. Everything is handled with the proper level of empathy and weight, with the darker events informing the emotional/psychological development of its characters--like an Inio Asano or Shuzo Oshimi manga. Join us for one of our longest convos yet as we discover the power of empathy and surviving! 988 is the Suicide & Crisis Prevention Hotline.
