Meeting Dr. Stone's Riichiro Inagaki and Boichi at AnimeNYC 2019 (Hey Poor Player)



The three-hour wait. My heart-pounding anticipation. The awe of witnessing a hero from adolescence speak about manga. Being humbled by Boichi's soft-spoken modesty. The fervor and excitement of every last Dr. Stone fan in attendance.

The ebbing disappointment in knowing I missed the chance to interview Riichiro Inagaki and Boichi...but furiously transcribing everything for the sake of the fans.

Over a month later, I still can't believe it, but here we are with the fruits of my own passion. I'm ever grateful that I had this opportunity.

I'm still quite proud of this one -- I knew from the beginning I simply had to discuss Otama's cheeks, and from there that spiraled into a 1000+ review complete with visual showcases. Needless to say, I set a standard here I'd like to follow.
