Spiraken Manga Review

In this episode of the Spiraken Manga Review, Xan reviews a very sad love story about a love, which should never be “Koi Kaze”

This episode was done in advance so no new news. Xan forgot to explain this in the episode but here is some additional information about Koi Kaze

The manga which Xan reviewed is very sad. Not sad in a cry baby sad but rather in a meloncoly way. Rarely does a manga, which deals with incest, show the negative side of that kind of relationship. Koi Kaze examines this topic and shows the forbidden love between two who should not be in love The characters in this manga are in a situation which should never be even thought of. It goes against several taboos and is something that they both know to be wrong but they stick with it. The fact that Koshiro is concerned about the social taboos and the reprecussions of Nanoko and his actions shows how developed a manga this is.

NOTE!!!Xan & The Spiraken Manga Review does not condone this type of relationship and while it is shown in this work of fiction to be romantic, in reality, there are serious negative implications and results to an incestuous relationship. Besides religious and social taboos, there are also several biological taboos which should never be crossed.

The 40th Episode of the Spiraken Manga Review.This episode can be considered an anniversery episode and a supplimental cause it covers everything from anime to comics to video games and even movies. Xan decides to review a true manga(graphic novel), Xan Reviews the movie adaption and the graphic novel Watchmen,

,
at least he tries to. He and Guest Host Baz insult several demographics and even talk bad about Star Wars, Lord of the Rings,Star Trek, and even video games like Smackdown vs Raw, Burnout Paradise, and Call of Duty. Sorry that this was not a full review episode, I tried to keep it as clean as I could but well, when i hang out with Baz, things go a little haywire. Episode 41 will be back to basics about reviewing manga I promise. If this is your first exposure to spiraken, go back and listen to earlier episodes. OFFICIALLY THE LONGEST EPISODE EVER
