Shonen Flop


Oct 24, 2022

Being a property owner can be hard especially when people from the future, a space pirate, and the king of the underground want your house. 

 

David and Jordan give their first thoughts on the Shonen Jump manga Sakuratetsu Taiwa-hen. Listen in as they give an overview of the first chapter, where they think it will go from there, and ultimately their “power word” to describe the series so far. They also dive into some listener questions.

MAL Description: 

In the center of a metropolis city lies a small, shaky-looking house. A normal... Okay... Not so normal high school student, Sakura Tetsu (and his family), who works day and night relentlessly to support his family's living expenses, lives there. All is normal until one day, people from the future, alien pirates from outer space, appear. The underground kingdom claims Tetsu's land. Will he prevail in protecting his own land? Or will he surrender his land to many more invaders to come? Yes... Weirdness and insanity ensues!
