A Good Samaritan reunites with a lonely soul; a wounded warrior speaks words of wisdom.
In this episode, we’ll discuss Falco the MVP, his mysterious and contemplative new friend, and some insights from the manga chapters this episode was formed from.
There’ll also be an ending note to explain the atypical format of the next podcast installment.
[Suicide discussion. See content notice for key time stamps.]
=========
This is one of those episodes where the comment section will be open on YouTube, so feel free to sound off there! HOWEVER…if you’re a manga reader, PLEASE make sure to properly mark off and hide from view any Season 4 spoilers you wish to share (that is, use a spoiler warning and make sure the spoiler material itself is below the “read more” tag). I do plan on moderating comments to try and help people avoid getting accidentally spoiled regarding Season 4.
And if you’re a troll who wants to deliberately do that for “fun”? …I’ll respond accordingly.
All right, folks. Shinzou wo sasageyo!!
=========
Content Notice: I’d put this podcast episode in the PG-13 range due to subject matter. And more crucially, if you need to mainly avoid discussions of suicidal behavior, the safe zone begins at about 1:38, with the first sentences being, “Anyways, Falco is just casually being an MVP, yet again! I already loved that scene that got me all teary eyed in Episode 2, with the wounded soldiers…” The exact time stamp may vary slightly depending on editing, so the sentences are a more definite way to identify the end of the graphic parts and beginning of the rest of the episode.
The show itself is definitely an R/TV-MA series, however, and I would recommend a minimum age of 15 or so. That is chiefly due to violence, mainly of the action type. That aspect gets very intense. There’s some strong language here and there, but not to where it’s really noteworthy, and as far as I can recall, there’s been no graphic nudity or sexual content thus far, though there are certain other content caveats mentioned in my review.
