Ep. 43 - camie won't be at SMASH! feat. Special Guesto’s MADS + POM of SYDNEY COSPLAYERS
The significance of 40% has been observed throughout history; It is the shorthand for a long time, or an adequate percentage to dispute against failure in high school exams. But perhaps no greater percentage of the 4-0 has arisen in our species history than that of the “coverage rule” invoked by the Sydney Anime and Manga Show this year. We are joined by very special guests and friends of the show, Mads and Pom of Sydney Cosplayers, to discuss the upcoming convention and this contentious topic.

Know perhaps most for the creation of the Dragonball Universe, his various works and visual style afflicted upon weebs and workout motivational media unlike no other. In tangential course, we look at series that have been heavily influenced by his creative impact also. Also, some RaRa on the impolitic incorrectness of Anime and a big announcement towards the end!
