- 0:05What's up, y'all? And welcome back to Danny's to
- 0:07talk. I'm your host, Robert.
- 0:09And today we're going to be talking about lost lad London,
- 0:15volume 1. Now.
- 0:18This series is written by the story.
- 0:22Art is done by Shima shinya, and it is published by Yen, press
- 0:29now. This series is another example
- 0:37of why I enjoy reading manga and why I enjoy a following a
- 0:46variety of people in a variety of different accounts.
- 0:50So, before I dive into what, this is because this series is a
- 0:58Basically, it's a murder mystery is what's going on with here.
- 1:02So you have, you know, our main one of our main characters,
- 1:06sorry, college student al-adly, and then we have detective
- 1:13Ellis. So obviously, first thing that
- 1:18jumped out to me, was they cover and the character design, which
- 1:25let me show you. Whoops, just a little bit.
- 1:33Of the character designs. So little bit of a journey of
- 1:38how I end up getting my hands on this, or how I ended up
- 1:41discovering this manga. So I got to start off by giving
- 1:44a shout-out to this Twitter account that I follow called
- 1:48manga magura re so they're on Twitter.
- 1:52If you're watching the video, you can see you can see the name
- 1:55right there, whatever, but I have found.
- 2:00So many series in our Stadium formed on some new series,
- 2:02because of this account, because they will they post about all
- 2:06the news. Whether it's in, it's come out
- 2:08of English, Japan, Spanish wherever French.
- 2:15Because honestly, last year, that is how I came across my
- 2:19home hero that I reviewed last year by year by so they had
- 2:25posted. A different series from the
- 2:28author called glitch and what it really stood out to me was once
- 2:32again the cover the character design.
- 2:35I was like, what is this? What is going on?
- 2:38I need to find out one of the comments.
- 2:42I had mentioned, I kept on seeing comments on this image,
- 2:45mentioning lost lad London lost at London's something.
- 2:48Okay. I got her.
- 2:49What it? What is this lost at London?
- 2:52Who is this Shima? Shinya?
- 2:55So kind of find out I have come across another one of this
- 3:00authors works, but I see every time I go into a bookstore.
- 3:05Star Wars the edge of balance. Now.
- 3:08I'm not necessarily the biggest Star Wars fan, but this cover,
- 3:13For me, it was eye-catching. Like I said, I see it.
- 3:16What's my freakin gong the store and so it is just kind of funny
- 3:19that you know all this is done by the same author, granted.
- 3:23The store was one which was co-written by a different person
- 3:26or with a different person. But my point is the art is what
- 3:33initial grabbed my attention. And then I have found out that
- 3:39volume 1. Hey literally just dropped
- 3:42within the last Week. So there's a little bit of
- 3:45digging and what got my attention was just the first
- 3:52couple lines of the of the synopsis, which I'm going to
- 3:55read to y'all. The whole of London is shocked
- 3:59when the mayor is found dead on an underground train, but
- 4:03perhaps none more than University student a lad Ali.
- 4:08That's all I read there. There's a lot more to this if
- 4:13you want to read more, but from me, I didn't either read nothing
- 4:17else on my Hoka Hey murder mystery.
- 4:20Interesting, looking at heart. This kid black guy on a crutch.
- 4:27What is going on? I need to find out and find that
- 4:31I did because the way the story unfolds. and to how our and this
- 4:42detective ended up getting roped into this murder mystery with
- 4:48the mayor. And the way the certain
- 4:52characters and plot their, as a kind of intertwined.
- 4:56I just love it. I just love it.
- 4:58Like I said, I really enjoy a good mystery.
- 5:03And this this definitely gave me a good mister.
- 5:05I'm like, crap Volume 2 isn't come down to freakin August and
- 5:09then who knows beyond that because I don't know.
- 5:12I don't know if this is still an ongoing series or not.
- 5:17Let me see and shout-out to. So, when I was looking on any
- 5:22list for something from this author, some of the other
- 5:24stories, whenever they also did a One-Shot.
- 5:26I think, like with sometime within the last year called.
- 5:28Good morning ladies and it's like three dope looking women.
- 5:32And it's about 3.3 women in a post-apocalyptic World.
- 5:37Once again are in the cover of that looks dope.
- 5:39Some like, man. I need to find out, I need to
- 5:42find out a way to read that and then they're coming out with a
- 5:47Anthology Book. I believe called gutsy gritty
- 5:50girl, which is like a collection of short stories by the same
- 5:55author. So bomb.
- 5:59Apologies. Oh, okay.
- 6:02So this series is actually a short series.
- 6:04It's only going to be three volumes long.
- 6:07Three volumes long, 18 chapters, so assuming that the author, got
- 6:12to write things how they wanted to.
- 6:15That is exciting. I have been happy lately coming
- 6:20across series that are short, short sweet.
- 6:24And to the point just like, what I reviewed last week when the
- 6:30cat faces West, that's also going to be three volumes as
- 6:33well. So Bob a yeah, but if Based off
- 6:37of this volume. If we can get two more volumes,
- 6:42just a still strong selling point.
- 6:45Then I will be very happy because I'm, like, I said,
- 6:49you're just the way, like, certain things were revealed and
- 6:52unraveled and honestly, I kind of had a feeling that things
- 6:59were coming. We're going to kind of they,
- 7:02they kind of set the tone of jest, right?
- 7:04Because, you know, the the story starts off with him, you know,
- 7:09say Biotech buddy of his and then heading onto the train to
- 7:13head home. And he comes across this
- 7:16homeless guy, that is sending sitting there with this dog.
- 7:20And so, you know, he gives almost got some money, and the
- 7:22guy says, son, don't end up like me a single event can change
- 7:29your entire life. And so, That's, that's the only
- 7:34thing that the guy said. And then that then we sort of
- 7:36switching over to what's going on with Detective Alice and all
- 7:41that stuff. But just just that little those
- 7:44couple of little lines, those beginning from this guy, this
- 7:47complete stranger to this, to this to this a young man.
- 7:50I've been like, hey be careful because one event can change
- 7:55everything and later on when the event happened.
- 8:00He thought back to with that guy said, because things quickly
- 8:04spiral out of control in a way that, you know, none of these
- 8:09characters could have saw. But I'll show another another
- 8:13girl look at al-adly. And then detected and detective
- 8:17Alice because detective Ellis also has some stuff going on
- 8:20that I want to know about, because he sees, always be
- 8:23riddled with injuries and it's okay.
- 8:25Is this 750? Because apparently, at some
- 8:27point in the past, Some big incident or something happened
- 8:32that, I guess he feels partially responsible for.
- 8:36And so, since then it's like, every year around the same time.
- 8:40He ends up having some big mysterious injury or something
- 8:43crazy happened. So I didn't want to learn more
- 8:46about him and more about what's going on, but we're but like I
- 8:52said, it's just interesting. Like so I just really enjoy the
- 8:59You know, just the whole mystery of things, but with that said,
- 9:04you know, if y'all enjoy mystery, if y'all enjoy some
- 9:08different looking art than go pick this up lost lad London.
- 9:14Like I said, just came out volume, one from un press and
- 9:19give it a read and let me know what you what y'all think about
- 9:22this. Cuz like I said, I love when I,
- 9:26you know, I'm pretty sure a lot of us that are that are deep
- 9:29into manga, you know, we kind of have things on the calendar of
- 9:32the. Oh, yeah, that series that I've
- 9:34been looking forward to for months and months and months.
- 9:36It's finally coming out and then it is things like this that you
- 9:42had no clue about no knowledge of, but they come through like a
- 9:47whirlwind and give you a pleasant surprise.
- 9:50But with that being said, Thank you for watching and listening
