This week Nigel and Tazziii welcome writer and illustrator Mina Ghosh to talk about the manga medium and its adoption outside of Japan. We get into where our love for the medium (and related medium anime) started, as we explore the tricky line between appreciation of the form and appropriation without proper consideration of its cultural roots.
Whether you’re a consumer or a producer, this is a discussion that you’ll gain new perspective from hearing!
