Because we seem to have fallen into the past through some sort of paper lined gateway. By that we mean manga and manga that’s aged. Has it aged like wine or soured like vinegar? Tim starts us off with InuYasha. That’s right, the origin of our term Takehashi Tokens has finally made it into the show via a request. Plus it’s a three volume omnibus!
