The spooks are upon us for another year, and what could be more horrifying than kids fighting to the death in an all-out battle royale in... Battle Royale! We discuss the manga version of this household name, and how it compares to it's famous cinematic cousin and the many, many series that have followed in its wake.

Welcome to That Time I Started A Podcast To Read Trash Manga With My Friends And Actually Most Of Them Were Trash But Some Of Them Weren't!
Or The Trash Manga Friends Podcast, for short.
Every fortnight, our trio of Sean, Mike and Phil discuss a manga, webtoon, manhua or manhwa, reviewing the first two volumes and breaking down what's good, what's bad, but mainly, what's Trash with a capital T. Will this series pass the test? Or be the latest in a long line of failures? Listen in to find out!

Shounen's are back baby, as we read Monochrome Factor, a manga about what happens when shadows from the other side invade our world and take our lead's body! Bleach? Nah, completely different. Will Sean love this as much as his beloved shounen darling, or see red in a world of black and white?

The world of anime calls to us once more with that rarest of series – a fantasy that isn't an isekai! No, instead we're pondering what happens to the hero's party in the years, decades and centuries after their journey is over as we discuss Frieren: Beyond Journey's End. Will we love it? Or was endless isekai not that bad actually?

Sean is running the show more so than usual, as he provides his take on a classic 00s series in FLCL! But how on Earth do you adapt something so unique to manga? Is it even possible? We discuss the Fooly, the Cooly and everything inbetween!

Mike's taking charge this time and dragging us back two decades to a world of Linkin' Park and Evanescence when we cover the iconic manga Elfen Lied! Did its mature themes stand the test of time, or was it pure edgelord cringe widdling itself on the floor?

As surely as night follows day, does a romcom series follow an isekai one. But it's a classic, as we discuss The World God Only Knows, where one visual novel and dating sim god is tasked with translating those skills to the real world... or else! Did we enjoy this high stakes wooing, or did Mike once again get very mad at the mere concept of romantic comedy?

We're back to ol' inevitable this time, as we tackle yet another isekai manga in Kenja no Mago, aka Wise Man's Grandchild! Fantasy world? Check. Ridiculously overpowered protagonist? Check. But will it be checkmate once again for the genre, or is this actually one of the good'uns?

A long running detective manga? Yes, that's right, we're covering QED! ...what, did you think we meant something else? And boy does this redefine long, with the longest single chapter we've ever read, but was it packed full of content and goodness, or just a really, really long murder of the mind?

Anime tie-in time has arrived once again! And the spooks are out early this year as we tackle Dark Gathering, a supernatural horror manga about one lil' girl's quest to catch 'em all to help save her family and friends from eternal damnation. But did we need to perform an exorcism on this series as well?

Imagine taking a pill that could take you back 10 years? Not in time thankfully, who wants to relive the past decade, but back to your youthful good looks and high school banter. That's the premise of webtoon ReLife, but were our trio ready to go back to school, or happy to have left those days and this series behind?
