On this episode, Hal and Pax take on a concept that you may not have known the name for, the deuteragonist! Also known as secondary protagonists, these side kicks, best friends, love interests and frenemies form one of the most tried and true tropes in anime, and we talk about how to do em' well, how to make em' reaaaal bad, and how to apply the lessons of character building in your own creative work. Join us as we visit an ancient courtroom, open a portal to hell, and slowly lose our minds. Please give us a 5-Star rating on your favorite podcasting app, it really helps the show!
