Mars Manga Discussion (Pt. 1) [with Lucy of CLAMPcast in Wonderland]
Update: 2024-11-15
Description
This episode discusses volumes 1-8 of MARS by Fuyumi Soryo.
We continue our melodrama mood with the late 1990s/early 2000s series, MARS. Kira Aso is a quiet girl who loves to paint. Rei is a bad boy who loves to race motorcycles. Naturally they fall in love, and all the dark secrets come out about them both. Shojo & Tell host Ashley and Clampcast in Wonderland co-host Lucy discuss what makes this series so gripping despite it being over the top, how iconic the art is, the portrayal of America, how cute Rei and Kira are, and much more.
