Nuriko's biggest secret is revealed. The reason why Tamahome is so money-driven surprises Miaka. Hotohori finally gets to set foot outside of the palace. And we get to meet Miaka's brother!

On this episode, it's the start of a new podcast miniseries covering the first half of Fushigi Yugi. Joining hosts Dennis, Kate, Garrett, Ed, and Karen is first time guest Chika Supreme from the Shoujo Sundae podcast! Though we only talk about the first four episodes, it's one of our longest podcasts to date, so fair warning. Beside's Chika's anime origins, we also discuss literally getting lost in a book, Miaka's directional hearing, which Disney character is Tamahome, operating hours of a national library, and how many gangs want to capture Miaka.
