FURTHER READING:
I’d write in to report my favorite anime, but you pretty much nailed it. Would definitely add Black Lagoon, though. And that brief exchange about Dutch being Uncle Tom was hilarious. I was like, “Wow, I guess it has been a while,” and then Jonathan clarifies, “Like our Uncle Tom.” XD
