Hey, I heard there would be riots if I did not come on to explain this chapter. Well, it's good that you're here. You're here, though. Yeah, that's right. I'm here to diffuse this situation. And we also have a friend of the podcast, Ken is joining us again this week. Hey, guys, thanks for having me back. Ken, you were saying about, when was the last time you were on the show?

Our friend, I'm better known as, you know, or our friend Ben, better known as Iin, you know, he can't join us today. And it's just a shame that we couldn't have like the the ben and ken connection oh oh

that would be nice but yeah we have a manga recap sorry yeah something came up with with ben so

we had to back out right so we'll have a manga recap for chapter 1085 the death of neville tari cobra

and we may have an anime recap.

Double, may have a doneable anime recap for episodes 1063 and 1064.

And we'll also have some piece together coming up later as well.

And as for the news this week, the only real news bit that I saw was the dub episode

1000 premiere that's going to be taking place at anime

Expo. This is not, I mean, it's with anime Expo, but it's not part of the convention itself,

it seems. You don't need to be badge, but you just need to wait in line probably for a very long time.

See, if you're going to be at the con, but I don't think you'll be attending this.

Yeah, I'm doing Artist Alley, but it starts at 6 p.m.

And that's when the convention closes.

It would be a big rush.
