In our inaugural episode, we read the accurately titled if not accurately spelled “Junko Enoshima Abducts Evey Fireside Girl Except Katie and Isabella,” which was submitted to us by the author, Taeko Yasuhiro, a.k.a. MyNameIsCelestiaLudenberg. The sentence structure may be poor, and there may be only a handful of punctuation marks and capital letters to be found, but you're sure to be moved by its story of an evil mastermind being conquered by the love and determination of about 23 characters, all of whom are listed by name. And "the beak suit." The beak suit did most of the conquering, I think.
THEN, we press on to read the beginning of one of our most seminal series: “Ultimate Betrayal, Sweet Revenge,” a Pokemon story in which Ash Ketchum's friends and mother hold an intervention to tell him to give up his dream of being the very best like no one ever was. He does not take it well. Whom can Ash trust? Where will he go after being rejected by 82% of the people in his life? Why does Mewtwo have an Irish accent? All will be revealed.
Theme music by Visager. Additional music performed by Neal O'Doan and Mauro Tortorelli.
