While J.D. is away, the mice will play! J.D. is in Japan, so that means Manuel and Bea are running the show this month! Not only is this the first J.D.-less episode, it's also the first that features a special guest! Last month Ruby suggested we take a look at Moto Hagio's 1975 four chapter series, They Were Eleven, and she's here to talk about it with us here. Not only is this series great in its own right, but it was also one of the very first shoujo series to ever be published in English. It's a sci-fi classic that predates just about all the other classics of the genre. It also tackles topics that feel just as important today, as they were 50 years ago. We'd love to hear what your take on the series is, so be sure to let us know. Check it out, and keep reading the wrong way!
Also, here is the interview that Bea mentioned towards the end:
