This series is pretty heartwarming with the mangaka coming to terms with his insecurities. The idea of a book signing would give me anxiety too, so I thought Naruhiko's fears were relatable. It's so satisfyingly to see how everything turns out.
If the little girl character didn't exist (I get that kids can be annoying, but she could simmer down a bit), this manga would be that much better.
Tema-tema slice of life seperti ini sungguh saya sukai. Di beberapa halamannya relatable bahkan sampai menitikkan air mata. Hal paling menonjol dari volume ini adalah bagaimana pengembangan karakter yang disuntikkan kepada sang tokoh utama. Tidak terburu-buru, tapi menohok.
No me imaginé que una obra que trata sobre las idas y venidas de un mangaka de pueblo me fuese a gustar tanto, pero hay que reconocer que este slice of life de @distritomangaed se hace super ameno.
En este tomo, seguiremos las aventuras de nuestro autor favorito, en esta ocasión, teniendo que viajar hasta Tokio para realizar una firma.
Esto le traerá algunos quebraderos de cabeza, empezando porque se siente bastante perdido y fuera de lugar en una ciudad tan grande, donde el sistema de trenes y lineas se le hace muy confuso. Pasando por algunos pequeños contratiempos con la forma de su firma...
También conoceremos a un par de caras nuevas, lo que hará que la historia sea mucho más dinámica y divertida.
Es una obra para leer sin prisas, disfrutando de sus capitulos y de las carcajadas que os va a sacar.
The story begins as a cute, slice-of-life story about 4 teenage boys on a rural island in Japan living their lives and reminiscing about their kindergarten teacher that they all had a crush on. It's sweet, but then you realize that this is the story within the story. This is the story about the manga artist who writes Wakkamon, Japanese for youngsters.
It's cute how Naruhiko Tohno and his assistant, Toshibou, navigate island life, collect research material, deal with fans, nosy neighbors, and even a cat. It's very chill, but fun.
As a mature manga reader, the text was a little larger in most cases, so I didn't have to read with high-powered lights on it all the time.
I like to see the character development! I also really enjoy seeing where the different real life people influenced the main lead's cast of fictional characters. Like, Hii-chan is most obvious: a manifestation of his old classmate Tadachin - easily talented and wins a lot while still being a down to earth young man. Ryon is his assistant. Rowdy and full of life, while fully dragging him along to learn and experience new things.
I really, really love Yoshi no Zuikara volume 2. There was a book signing, and I feel that our mangaka has grown in this story. I'm already a fan of the art, but now there's these little end pages of just HANDS? Simply gorgeous. I'm so glad this is also getting physical, because I think I need to upgrade my ebook copy.
I literally love this series. It’s so fun and cute and wholesome. Tohno is adorable, like literally so cute and Toshi-bou is just so funny. I didn’t know this was a Barakamon inspired manga but I love it cuz that’s literally one of my favorite anime’s. Anyways I’m definitely going to read the next volume when I get it. It’s so wholesome it warms my heart.
I'm really enjoying this series. Since I don't have a copy of volume 3 yet, I was going to take my time with this one but I was so engrossed in the story that I ended up finishing a lot sooner than I intended. I can't wait to get my hands on volume 3!
I just love this manga so much. It really encapsulates a sense of small town community that is so important to me. I love the characters and how they don’t fall into typical manga tropes but seem like genuine people. Seriously the best cozy manga ever.
I LOVE this manga. All of the characters and their relationships with each other are amazing, and I loved being able to read more of Wakkamon. I'm eagerly looking forward to reading the 3rd volume in the series, as well as hoping there will be a 4th edition!
This is probably the best thing I'll read all year. This series is so beautiful. If you are seeing this update, I ask that you read this short manga. Please.
