I wanted to do a quick little recommendation episode talking about Centuria and The Bugle Call. This is a general talk about both series, I mainly just discuss the start of the series otherwise its light on spoilers.

Both series got picked up by Viz for English physical release.

This episode I dive into first impressions of volume 1 for both Cosmos and Rai Rai Rai. I knew little about both going in and was surprised they both dealt with Sci-Fi and Alien themes but in very different situations.
