Mushishi, by Yuki Urushibara is the topic of tonight’s OSMcast_!_ And it’s definitely awesome. But don’t take our word for it! … Well, actually _do _take our word for it, but listen to us talk abut why first! OSMnotes Really you should go buy a copy of Mushishi in one form or another right now. Though you’ll probably have to special order it. But that’s okay because this manga and anime _is _pretty special. In that good way, not that short bus special or anything. So go git it. Like, now. Go!
