  Surprise from the fine folks over at viz media.

  And much like, Luffy's wanted poster skyrocketed after the
• 0:36
  events of 10 visits, wanted poster is about to Skyrocket
• 0:41
  after what they did in the wee hours of the morning.
• 0:46
  So, To give a bit of context to what I'm talking about.
• 0:54
  This lovely stack of manga. This lovely.
• 0:57
  Assortment of manga, I have in my hands downfall.
• 1:01
  How do we relationship zom 100 and 05 called the night.
• 1:08
  It can call me the ultimate and Saturn Apartments.
• 1:11
  Rob, what do all these manga have in common?
• 1:14
  Well, this dropped us. Something of a lovely little
• 1:20
  surprise announcement there the night and I'm gonna show you
• 1:23
  what it is. Real quick.
• 1:27
  The viz Manga app. Now, I'ma go real quickly how
• 1:34
  how the events of today I voted for me in relation to this
• 1:37
  announcement so I woke up super early like I normally do you
• 1:41
  know get myself ready for work, getting the kids ready for
• 1:43
  school and you know I glanced at Twitter I sieve is trending on
• 1:48
  my okay you know interesting Brewster YouTube have a video
• 1:52
  suggests and Vis big announcement.
• 1:53
  When I huh? I'm tempted but I'm like got to
• 1:58
  be a good dad. Get these kids off to school and
• 2:00
  I need to get to work to afford all this manga, so I'll go by my
• 2:05
  dad, gets to work with hours. I get to work.
• 2:07
  Oh yeah, this was training. I let me go back to Twitter and
• 2:10
  see what's going on. And I was not expecting a whole
• 2:17
  new app, so the viz Manga app is completely separate from the
• 2:24
  Shonen Jump app that Had for a handful of years at this point,
• 2:29
  but much like the Shonen jump out the various Manga app.
• 2:34
  Well, feature tons of Series where for majority of them, just
• 2:41
  like the Shonen Jump app, the first three chapters or free,
• 2:45
  and the most three, most recent chapters are free and the
• 2:49
  subscription for the viz Manga app is just a dollar, 99, and
• 2:56
  Just like the Shonen jump out though.
• 2:59
  Well, they should've dropped subscription.
• 3:01
  The viz manga subscription has certain series that are only on
• 3:07
  the online website depend on the age writing of the of the series
• 3:12
  and stuff. So just want to mention that up
• 3:14
  front just so that a lot of y'all are aware of that.
• 3:18
  But but yeah, so like I said, whole new app likes, a
• 3:21
  completely separate so separates subscription.
• 3:24
  But if you already have an account through Shonen Jump,
• 3:30
  when you go to the web browser, for example, as those that are
• 3:33
  watching the video version of this, see, they have these
• 3:37
  little tabs up here so you can access both stuff from the viz
• 3:41
  Manga app, as well as the Shonen Jump app all from, basically the
• 3:47
  same the same account, so to speak.
• 3:51
  But like I said, separate paid subscriptions.
• 3:54
  Now, when this was announced this morning, you know, they
• 3:58
  kind of I briefly mentioned in the video.
• 4:01
  Wow. Okay.
• 4:01
  Yeah we got some juji in tow stuffs coming, can communicate
• 4:05
  staff zom, 100 and you know a few other series like that.
• 4:10
  Anyway, Asha and NADA. I'm okay.
• 4:12
  Cool. You know, some of those, of
• 4:14
  course, some legendary series, some of those I'm interested in
• 4:17
  but I'm okay, you know, but The Joy on my face when I came to
• 4:23
  the website and I clicked on see all just to see what all series
• 4:29
  they had listed. And the reason why, like I said,
• 4:35
  I have this type of manga behind me is because there are some
• 4:40
  serious here that I have in my collection here and my point out
• 4:45
  to specifically. Saturn apartments and it can
• 4:53
  call me the ultimate both of these series are pretty much out
• 4:56
  of print with Saturn Apartments. I was only able to buy the
• 5:00
  first. to physically and the rest, I just had just had to buy
• 5:05
  digitally through the through the Google bookstore and with
• 5:09
  ikegami I was able to easily find like the middle section of
• 5:14
  the volumes, but was it 15 and 10 or extremely hard to find?
• 5:21
  I managed to snag one earlier this year, but five and 10 have
• 5:25
  continued have continued to elude me.
• 5:27
  Well to my joy, when I was scrolling through the app and
• 5:33
  just since so many series and I'm going to more context in a
• 5:37
  minute, but stuff like mouth, like I said, call the night.
• 5:41
  Asami, accept the school Case Closed, Allison, Borderland and
• 5:48
  Black Lagoon. Like, when I started getting a
• 5:51
  little bit further, not like when I saw Black Lagoon, I was
• 5:55
  like, oh, oh, there's more here than I anticipated.
• 6:01
  And like, I kept going dad that demons freaking door.
• 6:05
  Oh, hit D'oro downfall and just goodnight poom-poom.
• 6:13
  And just so many freaking series.
• 6:16
  And there we go. It could call me the ultimate
• 6:19
  limit. After years, I can finally,
• 6:24
  finally read this series and so many others.
• 6:30
  What's a couple other big ones moggy.
• 6:34
  Because the freaking anime of snuggling coming back.
• 6:36
  And I loved those first couple seasons of the anime.
• 6:39
  And I've heard great things about the manga.
• 6:41
  So I might, I might man, but it's but it's like 30-something
• 6:44
  volumes. That's a lot for a port for this
• 6:48
  Pro dad said to buy. But hey, your boy.
• 6:52
  Hey, I can afford a dollar ninety-nine a month, you know,
• 6:57
  maybe one of the kids won't get a Happy Meal this week but, you
• 7:01
  know, a small sacrifice for for For some great manga.
• 7:06
  But, but yeah, this is just such a amazing surprise, like I said,
• 7:14
  Tomorrow to my knowledge, there was no precursor.
• 7:18
  There was no snow hinting that this was coming.
• 7:22
  Ping-pong is on here as well. Like I said, Saturn Apartments.
• 7:30
  Drifting classroom, that's one. Like so many of these series.
• 7:35
  I glanced at the volume covers for your cooter lover.
• 7:38
  Every freaking time I go into the store and I'm like, someday.
• 7:44
  Someday, you know, maybe when the kids are grown and I have a
• 7:48
  few, a few coins, back in my pocket.
• 7:50
  I'll be able to reach to start buying a cooking 70 series, but
• 7:55
  to see that pretty much. They're doing the same treatment
• 8:00
  with this, as they do the Shonen Jump.
• 8:02
  Stuff is amazing. It is amazing to see now very
• 8:08
  briefly though. I'll mention, let me see if I
• 8:11
  can find one for a good example. Let me go to some of these more
• 8:17
  ongoing series for airing super happy to see that as well.
• 8:22
  So so we have a few chapter gaps and this happened two years ago
• 8:31
  back when Shonen Jump first, moved over to their to their new
• 8:34
  subscription model as well. To wear pretty much a lot of
• 8:39
  series, especially these ones that are still ongoing, like for
• 8:42
  Aaron and call of an eye as some of the other series, pretty much
• 8:47
  everything up to Where the current English version of this
• 8:55
  is, that will be on the app. And speaking of which, I'll
• 8:57
  mention real quick, as far as I know as well.
• 9:00
  Unfortunately, this, the viz manga subscription is only
• 9:03
  available in the US and Canada, I believe.
• 9:08
  But hopefully, they'll expand that to more countries and
• 9:12
  stuff. But I, but I believe a lot of
• 9:15
  this is kind of due to some licensing stuff going on in
• 9:17
  different countries in different regions.
• 9:20
  Because shout out to the homage from over on the behind the
• 9:25
  manga podcast to of the host manga alerts and winter.
• 9:33
  Winter Venom, they both had held a Twitter space earlier today,
• 9:37
  where a lot of us in the community, kind of, can you give
• 9:40
  it to discuss this? And some of the speculation is
• 9:42
  that probably because a lot of a lot of series depending on the
• 9:47
  different countries and reaches and stuff are License by
• 9:50
  different Publishers and different companies and so
• 9:54
  sometimes there's a lot more Hoops to go through and it's not
• 9:57
  just a simple. I will you well Vis owns the
• 10:00
  stuff. Why are they just putting it all
• 10:01
  up on the app or whatever? There's a lot of stuff there's a
• 10:04
  lot of money involved and how a lot of these decisions play out
• 10:07
  and stuff but they are. So like I said hopefully a lot
• 10:11
  of stuff will come to more countries and stuff from in the
• 10:14
  future, maybe they'll come up with some type of international
• 10:17
  solution like they did with it. With manga, plus four.
• 10:21
  For a lot of the Shonen Jump titles and stuff.
• 10:23
  So, but by yourself, so a lot of the series in here are from some
• 10:28
  of visits other Magazines magazines and stuff that they
• 10:34
  own like, Shoujo be and I'll do the other ones called Ashoka
• 10:38
  gaku and stuff like that. So yeah, so lots of looks at the
• 10:46
  other magazines and stuff which I think is kind of wild.
• 10:48
  There is the split between the content.
• 10:52
  Because while I do agree, like a like when we had the discussion
• 10:57
  earlier in the 20th of the Twitter space, it would be
• 10:59
  awesome if they would have had some type of like Bond or thing
• 11:02
  or something, to get all the stuff in one location.
• 11:05
  But, you know, there, there there's always a lot more stuff
• 11:08
  going on behind the scenes with a lot of stuff reduction, front,
• 11:11
  works and functions. But all in all though, like I
• 11:14
  said I'm still excited for to have access to some of these
• 11:21
  series. Like I said so many of them been
• 11:23
  trying to hunt down for years or just some of them are just just
• 11:27
  some hidden gems that are just gotten lost of time because they
• 11:30
  went out of print over a decade plus a go, you know and it's
• 11:34
  like you have the handful of us ND in the manga Community,
• 11:40
  Pockets Community, whatever, you know, Like not many people, not
• 11:45
  many videos are going to pop up where somebody talking about
• 11:48
  Saturn Apartments, you know, you know, if you search for
• 11:51
  something a promise on YouTube, my face would be one of the few,
• 11:56
  but that talks about this series.
• 11:58
  So, but, but yeah, but hopefully, hopefully, with this
• 12:04
  new subscription are kind of have a similar effects like,
• 12:07
  with Shonen jump to where you might go to the shoulder jumps
• 12:11
  of scripture, or get it too. Hey I'm I got to turn it up.
• 12:14
  Sooner. Jump subscription because I want
• 12:16
  to read one piece or Jujutsu Kaizen or my hair Academia or
• 12:21
  chainsaw, many stuff like that. But once you get into the
• 12:24
  ecosystem, oh what is this Sakamoto days and so many other
• 12:29
  stuff? Yes I am.
• 12:34
  I stuck them all days and Kane Bonacci and each and also family
• 12:38
  and that on Lock. And so many other dope Little
• 12:41
  Gems that you find along the way.
• 12:42
  So hopefully people might come to the viz app, you know, for
• 12:47
  stuff like Inuyasha and bigger titles and stuff like that.
• 12:51
  But then like, oh, what is this? Saturn Apartments?
• 12:53
  Where is it s? Got me.
• 12:54
  The ultimate, what is this Ferran Beyond Journey's End?
• 12:58
  So, so, yeah, so like I said, it's a very awesome and very
• 13:01
  welcome surprise, Like I said, there's a few caveats and stuff.
• 13:06
  Like I said with it with some of the ongoing series kind of
• 13:11
  having some chapter gaps and stuff, which like I said, those
• 13:14
  are kind of be filled in as the English volumes release, but
• 13:19
  they also do have a lot of chapters of stuff past where the
• 13:25
  English version has done for, which is like, so, what creates
• 13:27
  a gap can remember? When it happened years ago, we
• 13:30
  had that situation with demonslayer when that happened
• 13:33
  stuff so but but eventually they'll get caught up in stuff
• 13:37
  and I'll just say, this is definitely a Welcome way to do
• 13:44
  this type of announcement because and I want to touch on a
• 13:47
  too much or whatever, because the services they're going to
• 13:50
  launch tomorrow or within a matter of hours from whenever
• 13:53
  y'all might see this, and I'll talk about it more on my next
• 13:57
  four Pockets episode later in the week, but the K Manga app
• 14:03
  and stuff from kodansha. They've been teasing and
• 14:08
  building that out for well, over a month.
• 14:10
  Like, they announced, it was coming.
• 14:12
  I think I back in like, February or March and how are you are,
• 14:15
  you know, a little ways into May and it's still not coming out
• 14:19
  until May 10th. And so, I was like having this
• 14:22
  daily T's of hay coming in 30 days, 15 days, six days versus
• 14:29
  Vis, just stealthily middle of the night being like boom, new
• 14:34
  app dollar, 99, it's available right now and you got the
• 14:38
  timeline on fire. Everybody talking about it week.
• 14:42
  It's were two spaces, I'm freaking recording a video, you
• 14:45
  know, while my kids banging on the door, you know,
• 14:48
  conversations are happening. While others are still slowly
• 14:53
  but of course, no different companies.
• 14:55
  Different mentalities with the different teams and stuff behind
• 14:58
  how they approach. These different promotions and
• 15:01
  stuff. But, you know, we're in 2023.
• 15:04
  And, you know, people want that immediate see it's like, oh,
• 15:08
  there's an app that's going to have some of my favorite series
• 15:11
  whatever. Oh, and it's billable right now
• 15:13
  and it's only a few bucks. Hey, impulse buy, you know,
• 15:17
  somebody I'll drop a couple bucks in a heartbeat versus, you
• 15:22
  know, trying to go and buy 30-something volumes of a series
• 15:27
  on or like I said dealing with the words payment models and
• 15:30
  stuff so but but all in all I'm rambling.
• 15:33
  Like I said, I just just very excited for this news and
• 15:39
  vicious vicious opens the floodgates Or more reviews of
• 15:45
  stuff for me to do because like I said, now I have easier access
• 15:49
  to so many series that either. I started reading but I couldn't
• 15:53
  afford to continue to keep buying the physical volumes
• 15:56
  right now or stuff. Like I said there's just like
• 15:58
  out of print or hard to find and it's like this is a young Rob.

  So shout out to Vis and I hope that we continue to see more
• 16:14
  Publishers do this in this fashion with the actual just
• 16:19
  flat-out subscription fee. No, weird pan by chapters or
• 16:23
  pieces of chapters and all this other mess that some of these
