Manga Mavericks EP. 149: February 2021 News Roundup!

On this episode of Manga Mavericks, we're finally back to cover the truck load of news we've been meaning to cover, or at least as much as we could before EVEN MORE started popping up afterwards, but we'll get those eventually! For right now, we have 40 minutes worth of serialization news alone to discuss, along with the newest lists from both Bookscan and the New York Times! Afterwards we have some new licenses to cover, along with some controversies involving MediBang and INKR involving insultingly low translation rates. We also discuss a lot of movie and anime news, as Demon Slayer: Mugen Train continues to dominate the box office and Detective Conan preparing to reach its 1000th episode!! There's just a lot going on, but we do our best to cover as much of it as we can in just under three hours! Join us next time as we celebrate our 5th anniversary on our 150th episode!!
