With his research notebook in hand, Aoyama sets out to get to the bottom of this mystery… The acclaimed novel by Tomihiko Morimi―which inspired a beautiful animated film―is now available in manga form!

I read the novel Penguin Highway back in 2021 (and I still haven't seen the movie!). I found the manga far more funny than the novel. It was nice having the art though. All those cute and angry penguins. Delightful.

I’ll need to eventually find and read the actual book but that was wild

[R · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very cute but also very odd. Kind of hard to wrap my brain around what's going on.
