Скачать или смотреть Double Series Review: My Taste is Better Than Yours Episode 19

Welcome to "My Taste is Better Than Yours", the manga podcast with Samu and Guardian Enzo (https://lostinanime.com/) where we discuss some of our favourite manga series and you can decide which of us has the better taste!

Throughout this podcast we’ll be covering series we've both already read or follow, as well as series one of us recommends to the other to compare our opinions. We’ll also cover some general manga and anime-related topics. This time it’s Samu’s recommendation for Enzo - and it’s another josei manga - "Double" by Ayako Noda. It's a psychologically twisted series about the complicated relationship of two young professional actors, one a natural talent and the other a grinder, with differing levels of success and the drama that unfolds from the power each has over the other.
