episode 58: Ep. 58: Birds of Shangri-La, by Ranmaru Zariya
It's about to steamy on Mangasplaining, as the crew travels to an unnamed tropical island to visit with 'The Birds of Shangri-la', a significantly steamier BL entry. In this NSFW episode, we learn the ins-and-outs of more explicit BL manga, talking about genre conventions and external censorship, love and lust, and projecting yourself into a narrative. A very good time is had by all. Read along with the show notes at mangasplaining.com.
