When a bumbling ex-Yakuza heads straight for the Yose after gettting out of prison, he doesn't know the man he's determined to apprentice for, Yakumo Yuurakutei, is a Rakugoka who not only refuses to take on apprentices but has vowed to commit Rakugo Shinju: a double suicide with his artform in which he aims to take his art to the grave with him! But somehow this unlikely ex-con finds himself in Yakumo's car and being called Yotaro? Maybe there is such a thing as a second chance after all?!
On this week's episode, Mat is joined by illustrator Jessica Lai to discuss Haruko Kumota's excellent Descending Stories! Join us as sit down to talk about the book's incredible storytelling and memorable characters, our mutual love of Rakugo, and take the time to compare the manga to the anime and live action adaptations!
