Gesicht

Brace yourself for some bad pronounciation, because this time we’re tackling the seinen manga adventures of Gesicht, Germany’s premier android detective, as he attempts to unravel the mystery of a serial killer targeting the world’s greatest robots.  Apparently some kid called Astro Boy turns up as well.

Every effort has been made to keep this episode free of spoilers, but be aware that it’s more of an extended discussion than a straightforward review.
