Manga Machinations

*NOTE* We had some technical issues during the recording. Unfortunately some of Jocelyne’s audio is still garbled and will be presented as such. Welcome to a very special episode where we dive into Nagata Kabi’s newest book, My Alcoholic Escape from Reality! We’re joined again by the translator of the book, Jocelyne Allen, as we discuss Nagata Kabi’s hospitalization and her struggles with her guilt from drawing non-fiction manga!!
