Momtaku is joined by tumblr's @lostcauses-noregrets, @seitsen-sarvi and @tsuki-no-ura for a chapter discussion of Attack on Titan "Bad Boy". Since Luna can't be bothered with Levi's tragic teacup tale, she joins after the break to discuss her trip to Japan and Momtaku's visit to the Netherlands.

We may be months late, but at least we're not Yamato Mori keepers coming to save the day late, amirite? The beach saga continues, and we're introduced to two new Mori instructors with some very particular skills. The kids talk about their hopes and dreams, until their actual dreams start taking a dark turn... You guys probably already know how this ends up, but we don't. So laugh along as we are probably wrong about everything that's gonna happen! :)
It's been a while, but we're back with an SnK podcast (or well, it's been a while since our last podcast regardless ^^"). Momtaku went to Anime NYC and attended Hajime Isayama's first panel outside Japan. She and Luna talk about her experiences that weekend, and debate whether Yams is one hot toddy.

Ishida said "It's a hot girl summer" and damn, he wasn't lying. #beachpls Join us for blasphemy mixed with casual mass murder as we read and react to both parts of chapter 26!
Presumed dead, but appearantly alive and kicking and in the mood for pizza: Momtaku and Luna! ...oh, and Riccardo and Ume too I guess. The Apothecary is after Tokio and Azuma now, but will he get to them before they turn on each other first? Join us and the Choujin Three for nightmares, dreams and visions.

As the Moon Beast breaks free from his chains, we're back to being chained to Ishida's random chapter releases. Momtaku may or may not have broken a desk out of sheer frustration. At least we can react to chapter 22 with the rest of the fandom...

Our Choujin X readthrough continues with chapters 12-14. Thankfully (for Luna) the hand choujins don't make a reappearance and instead we conclude the battle with Shiozaki. We love the new insights into the lore and world building and were stunned at that closing panel!

It's another chase scene but this time Tokio gets saved by a familiar face and we see all that the snake choujin can do! Our read-through of Choujin X continues with chapters 5 and 6.
We continue our readthrough of Sui Ishida's latest work, Choujin-X. Since Ishida works faster than most humans can manage, we're covering two chapters this week.

Our three year anniversary is coming up and we want to celebrate it with a return to AoT for an "Ask Me Anything" episode. News, drama, the "real" ending, interviews, anime, MAPPA, appallingly low wages, merch, and so much more... there's no end to things to talk about when it comes to AoT and we'd love to talk about it.
We'll be recording in mid-August so there's plenty of time to send us your questions or topics you'd like us to consider. You can do that on tumblr, twitter or via our website youhearbiggirls.com.
Thanks as always for listening!
The second chapter of Sui Ishida’s new manga Choujin X was released last week and Luna and Momtaku continue the tradition of reading it together. Listen along as we try to make sense of bumbums, sheep cryptids and enjoy a wildly entertaining high speed Roller Boy Yay-Yay chase.
It's a short episode - only 30 minutes, so see? We can be brief 😂 Read Choujin X Chapter 2 for free on the Viz Media website
It's a return to SnK as the Big Girls discuss their reaction to the final pages, and the sometimes extreme reaction of the fandom.
While awaiting next months Attack on Titan final chapter additions, the Big Girl's decide to read Choujin X, the latest work from Sui Ishida (Tokyo Ghoul).
For our final chapter podcast, the Big Girls recorded with a live audience. Special guests include Linkspooky, Puppet, Polkka and Underscore.
Welcome to the chapter 138 discussion. Our first guest this month representing eremika nation is Alooulla from the Shingeki no Kyojin subreddit. We also welcomed back "Eren optimist" Safflora for this penultimate discussion.
I think the biggest surprise this month (besides the discovery that Safflora might be a closeted EH shipper 👀) is that with 45 pages remaining we are still left with far more questions than answers. Or rather, this chapter felt like an answer, but it was one without any explanations, leaving room for so much speculation. Our discussion this month reflects that.
Links this episode: A discussion of "goodbye" in other languages
Welcome to the chapter 137 discussion! Joining us was Andrew Allstars who is known for two things - his livestream reactions to the manga and anime, and his undying love of Zeke Jaeger. We were also happy to have our friend Underscore.
Luna and I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did. One a personal note, it was great having Luna back after a two month absence.
With Levi (finally!) having a focus and giving what might be his swan song, we’re excited to welcome two longtime Levi fans, writer @lostcauses-noregrets and artist seitsen-sarvi (aka Marie) to be our guests on the 136 podcast.

We have another almost two hours of content this month featuring chapter impressions from old and new guests as well as bonus clips from the cutting room floor.
It feels wrong to call this a bonus episode since it's essentially another complete podcast, so maybe 2nd Anniversary Extravaganza Part 2 is the better title. Either way, we hope you enjoy!

It's our birthday! We turn two years old this month, and instead of celebrating with cake (cause we can't fit into our jeans as is), we decided to celebrate with our former guests. Join us and twelve of our previous guests as we discuss The Rumbling with all its terrifying might. After the break, it's just the Big Girls. We look back on our first year of podcasting to see at what we got right and what we got horribly wrong (not as wrong as the Rumbling though!)

While Momtaku and Luna spend a few weeks vacationing together, Reiku takes the helm of the podcast. She's joined by by two of the subreddit mods, Allouola and Erechan. Listen along as they discuss chapter 122, "To you, 2000 Years Ago'
For our chapter 121 discussion we were joined by The Humble Servant and Akaikitsu, a member of the SCNK who is responsible for amazing manga colorings like the one below.
Since Humble and Akai are both very much fans of Eren Jaeger and we are not, the conversation very much became a discussion of Eren’s mindset and morality.
