Agreed. Still Gretta loved this movie. Especially the Shout out to Zippy's.
Check out our review of Wonder man here

agreed
trust me, I understand 100% about manga fitting schedules better.
Its oddly a good kind of heavy. The anime adaptation was pretty good (they cut out a lot of Roosevelt stuff).
What will you read next?
That is a great series that still holds up. Another recommendation by him is Asadora!
It has the same vibe as 20th century boys but had a kidnapped little girl who flies an airplane as an MC. Also there is a kaiju
Its definitely a unique experience. Definitely let us know what you think

Even though this is incredibly short I am holding out hope that we've got a new reverse harem romcom to look forward too!
just did my review of Ichi the witch. both are exceptional series. Do you think they are both big 3 of shonen contenders?
amazing series. Would you want another Tezuka work adapted by Naoki Urasawa?
Kuro-sensei for the win. have you watched the live action adaptation?
I reviewed this manga back in 2020 and it is still an amazing series. Glad someone else is talking about it
